[@trooplex711]

Is it compatible with Krita? Also great video!

[@martingo_]

I'd like to know that as well... also, I'm pretty surprised how cheap the tablet is? Like... there are a few tablets on the Huion website which have the same, similiar or arguably worse specifications and are significantly more expensive... for example the INSPIROY Q11K tablet... only advantage I can see on that one is a slightly larger active area.

[@CoreLocus]

Yes! I downloaded Krita and tested the HS610 with it, the pen pressure works perfectly and it's just as smooth as Clip Studio Paint & Photoshop.

[@CoreLocus]

As mentioned above, it does work with Krita @Martin Gonda! The big difference between the Q11K V2 + WH1409 V2 and the HS610 is that the two former tablets boast a larger active area and wireless support. However, as someone that loves large drawing areas, I found the HS610 to actually be more than adequate with a very comfortable working area. I feel like Huion is trying to make a statement with the HS610, they've lowered the price of it compared to its predecessor, the 1060 series, while adding new features and updating the design. I think they want to make it clear that they have no intentions of raising their prices to be recognized as a premium brand, they know that their products are great and stack up against their competitors, but they can keep their prices low. The HS610 is their newest product, but they're still manufacturing some of the older ones, their prices just haven't been adjusted. This is why it may seem like their other products have less featured/older specs but higher prices.

[@martingo_]

Hi! First of all, I love your review! You were very thorough. I’m a photographer looking for a good pen tablet to do my post processing on. However, I am left-handed. Will this present an issue?

Hello and thank you for the great video I have a question: I want to try drawing digitally and I'm not sure what tablet should I buy HUION HS610 or Xp-pen deco 03? What do you think 🤔?

[@CoreLocus]

The HS610 definitely wins in terms of value in my opinion. With features the two tablets trade blows between wireless and android support, but with the HS610's more express keys and Huion's drivers I'd personally recommend it, especially since it comes in at a lower price.

[@eis95s]

thats one of the many hardware issues they have YET to fix. (yes, 7 months later, still horrible.) i made the mistake of buying few of these, it added up and became more expensive than it would have been if i bought wacom in the first place. huion had many hardware issues, i had to reinstall, redo my settings multiple times, i fixed it for a bit and issues came back OR a new one appeared, dont get me started on the pen, it randomly stopped working and my configurations of the screen reset or just changed into something else. is it really worth it? this is a choice between multiple "small" purchases vs one and done purchase. wacom is not perfect but huion is far off it. PS i am good with tech, contacted support, and tried multiple solutions which ended in a fail, this aint a case of a dumb person not understanding how things work, just to get it out of the way.

How well do the lines taper when drawing slower lines? This is a huge deciding factor to me.

[@CoreLocus]

It really depends on your hand with it. I find that the tapering is very nice if you desire it, I personally use vector lines when drawing so tapered ends usually get cut off. Examples: cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/553093786381713410/564658596781228042/unknown.png Basically, it behaves how you want it to.

Just wanted to ask if it is possible to extend your working space when connected to android because I would like to use it with an android tablet

[@CoreLocus]

As far as I am aware, no. There is a set space on the tablet for Android usage and there doesn't seem to be any way to configure it currently. However, I will also say that having the entire horizontal length of the tablet mapped to a smartphone may be disproportionate, I find the current active area quite comfortable

@@CoreLocus thanks so much for your helpful info and review! I'm looking at a graphics tablet for mainly photo editing purposes and maybe illustrations in the future?

Been hearing mixed reviews about both so I'm not really sure😂

[@CoreLocus]

@@jonathansim8725 No problem! I'd avoid Wacom entirely as their drivers are infamously bad and their tech support has spawned many horror stories. If you want mobility, the HS610 is definitely my #1 recommendation because of the android support. I can't really recommend any other tablets in the sub $100 ramhe since the ones that compete with the HS610 are typically less feature-rich. Between $100 and $200 check out the Q11K V2 which is wireless and has a generous surface area.

[@bobtheparrot923]

Intuos Pro is still undoubtedly a superior experience (with a few more bells and whistles like touch input, however this one counters it with android support; In the end both of these features are equally useless in my eyes though lol). But is it $200+ kind of superior....Not sure about that one.

[@CoreLocus]

Here are the primary differences between the Intuos Pro M and the HS610 in terms of features; - Intuos Pro has Wireless Support - Intuos Pro has touch gestures - HS610 has android support That being said, the latter two are niche options that not everyone will use. I personally don't like touch gestures and find them rather annoying when trying to draw, more due to Windows' lack of proper handling for them than the tablets' executions. Android support is also not something everyone will want, but as you'd said they balance each other out. The wireless support is something very nice to have, but the Huion WH1409 has wireless support and twice the surface area of the Intuos Pro M at less than half the cost. (By the by I should clarify that I mostly agree with you, I just wanted to add more information to your comment for people that are interested in grabbing new tablets!) Not to mention Wacom's drivers. I would argue more in favor of older Wacom tablets, they are built like tanks and hold up well years later. The newer Intuos products don't really stack up too well from a value standpoint when compared to any of their competitor's products. I guess what I'm trying to say is that, I wouldn't call the Wacom a superior experience, if anything due to the shotty drivers I'd actually say the Huion has a smoother out-of-box experience and the value is definitely there. If Wacom lowered their prices to stay competitive with the average consumer it might be a more fair comparison
