I have one myself and after setting it up this thing is amazing. Feels good to draw with, really smooth, and I have had no issues so far. First time using pressure sensitivity and a tablet like this but so far it's good.

[@ManOfSdeel]

Thanks for taking the time to make all of these reviews. There are so many pen displays on the market, these definitely make navigating it easier.

[@zahraawhooo2048]

Your reviews are always the best!👍🏼✨they are very thorough and helpful ✨thank you so much ✨💕

[@RicardoDizonLefthanded]

Thanks for this. This is helpful for me to decide.

On sale right now on Amazon very tempted to buy it!!

[@TheGalacticIndian]

I have a question. How on Earth can you be so professional? Each review is excellent, and all videos time-tagged🤩

[@TheGalacticIndian]

Also I cannot decide between Huion Kamwas Pro 16 and Kamwas 22 (not a PLUS, just 22). Could you please tell me, what would you recommend? I am mostly after zero input lag and line/color accuracy🤔Thank you so much!

[@TheGalacticIndian]

Actually, anything above 16 inch is too big for my needs, as I am after something portable. Now I cannot decide between Huion Pro 13 and Pro 16. I get the impression the displays and drawing experience is the same (apart from size) in terms of quality, am I right?

Thanks for the review!

I bought it a few days ago and I'm so happy that I did. I will easily prefer this one over any budget tablet you can think of and maybe even wacom cintiq 16 even though that one has a better pen .

Great review! By the way, can it connect with desktop view supported android phones, e.g Samsung S10, Note10, Huawei Mate 20, or else? *Connect means showing as a monitor. If can, then can we use the pen also?

Hello Yi Chie, Thank you for your review. I bought a HUION Kamvas 16 pro yesterday . However it appears to have a serious offset and calibration problem. The magnitude of offsets randomly varies upon rebooting or re-switching on. Any advice?

I think like others have said, it's best to wait a little while. Maybe get the next version of it. Thanks for the review Teoh. 👍😀

[@kylergeston]

Thank you for the review. I just picked up one of these units as my first drawing tablet. I would be curious to know how you personally configure your pen and tablet buttons when you are drawing. I know one can customize to anything but I would like to see how you use them. Maybe a tutorial on that??

[@teohyc]

For tablet buttons, just use your drawing apps as normal and you'll get a sense of which shortcuts you use often, then set those shortcuts to the buttons. E.g. B(rush), E(raser), undo, save are the usual ones

Have you had any pen calibration issue ??? no matter what i do there is always a curser off set......

[@sacrebleu1371]

After reviewing the many pros and also cons, companies and products of each one, I bought the Huion kamvas 16 pro.

[@NickCharles]

Would you still recommend this in 2022? It's currently available for $359 with the stand which puts it in the same price range as the Wacom One, but that's only a 13" model. Or would you consider it too outdated and it would be better to pay the $599 for the newest variant with the 2.5K screen?

[@andreikuzmin2693]

I wonder is the resolution of the display 300 dpi or less?

[@kitse_xiii8334]

Do you know how to fix the offset? I've tried restarting, reinstalling the driver, calibrating, and nothing seems to get rid of the small but noticeable offset of the stylus on my Kamvas pro 12

[@sacrebleu1371]

Are you using a dual monitor set up? That is often the cause. Try checking it with just the original monitor in use on your PC. Be sure monitor matches the pixel setting.

[@pollyexparrot3123]

Thank you for the review! I'm currently looking to get my first pen display so this is very helpful! Would you say this is the better choice compared to the Wacom Cintiq 16? I had my heart set on that and now I'm lost in the decision process again lol

I'm seriously considering returning it for a XPen Tablet. I'm ser

[@admint.j9921]

This is long but it may help someone else: Sorry XpPen but that screen is like a hockey game!! I own Huion larger monitor GT something and I think it works just fine for me - I honestly stop using Wacom products for the price (and trying to sell my unopened wacom tablet now - I'm used to monitors now). Recently I've wanted a more lap tablet monitor so I did purchase the XpPen pro to give it a try and test it out and to be honest it's not too bad...but as someone who does art constantly, I just can't fall in love with it. I do HATE the way the screen feels when you draw on it and I would honestly use it to only sketch out ideas and transfer it over to my big computer to finish. I think the company is nice and the tablet is not too bad...but something about it is uncomfortable. I honestly would not recommend the 12 series reg or pro it's hard to fall in love with. I used it for only a few days less than a month and could already tell it was not going to work for me. My biggest issue with it was when you would zoom out to be able to see your work the canvas (I was in photoshop) would look like the screen had pixelated rips across it and the colors would often vanish or sections of your art would vanish as well. Sometimes it would even act like the 'good ol days' of the internet where the page would load painfully slow from top to bottom to show the image...it was not fun at all. Since I had this XpPen for under a month and it's still just like new and in the box, I'll likely give it away to a big kid or teen who wants to get into digital art...but if you're doing it seriously and want near-flawless results...I believe it can give you that, but you're going to have to fight for it a bit. Just go for anything NOT the 12 series reg or pro. I wanted it for travel convenience if I needed to go on a trip I could flashdrive/googledrive everything over to my laptop and grab the tablet and go but it was not a drawing convenience for my projects 40 - 80 percent of the time. The size, however, is something perfect for travel. XpPen may be for you - it was not terrible but when you paired it with third-party software such as LN the pen would not work well at all and the pressure felt broken a LOT of the times (unless you're sketching or using very thick lines...this was a huge pain) There is a huge noticeable LAG when drawing with third-party add-ons meant for the drawing apps. It would lag to the point where the screen would freeze with no activity for moments of time before waking up from it's 'daze' and apply the strokes it thinks you made. It's best to use the product raw and it did work much better without it. The line was more smooth without LN, but I use LN for perspective and I can't do that unless on my main work desktop monitor. I would recommend the XpPen products for younger kids wanting to get into digital art, if I were 12, XpPen would have been the best (I used a line of bamboo tablets into their more mature wacom brands and then to Huion) but XpPen feels like an experiment. I wish for the company Huion and XpPen to grow and rival wacom one day so there would be more competition on the market instead of a monopoly. If any of these companies release a 4k version at a good price Wacom could finally be watching their backs (maybe just a bit - schools will always push students to wacom and overprice them) My Huion (this version) comes in tomorrow and I'm honestly excited to compare it with the XpPen and see if I'm just Huion converted now.

[@gurronadon613]

I do not have a tablet or laptop but a PC case (and smartphone), it may make sense to take an iPad, maybe iPad Pro (at 90/80% to draw trying to do it especially there instead of paper or no display tablet?) perhaps among some or many months (it is more a desire but one excludes the other) if it would be possible or better Pen Display, maybe this or similar that would also be more economical solution, I would use above all at home but I would like more comfortable solution also for back or arm that in the last months he gave a little boredom and to avoid malfunctions or to set badly (in the past I liked to rack my brains to try to make things work or to learn them but now less even if I am tempted to choose a lower solution in case of doubt to make a mistake in buying) or screen below 10/11 inches (there would be no doubt as to the model and capacity and if with a network card, I was thinking of a model with 64 GB and no net but I don't know, I didn't understand then if ipad os is fine then with all peripherals, it will depend on outputs, I don't know the costs of this then, an external hard disk would serve me already for pc but I don't know if usb 3 or usb 2 that are outputs that I have to the PC make that I could use the same thing for everything), it is difficult to choose, on the one hand, however, I think that avoiding pc in the summer with heat and video card that becomes noisy or maybe you can more easily find a comfortable position or listen to music and being able to read or have good references would not be bad, price differences are scary, with different prices I would actually have my preference if ipad is in fact an alternative to wacom for capacity, for programs but maybe better pc but procreate looks very nice. to know an artist's opinion and that I admire would be nice. thank you and sorry sorry. but for your fantastic abilities it all seems beautiful so I would take everything in reality .. but then I would discover that it was the handle and not the racket

I made a portable desktop pc that i can put in my backpack/ carry-on luggage. I was looking into a portable display to use with it. But price wise, I might as well go for this than just a simple display. Can a Desktop pc output video to this tablet without the need of a regular screen?

[@nathanmutombo2866]

You might be limited by the battery because this displays also require a power source. Unless you are going to plug your "portable computer" in a wall. I'm just assuming here but maybe you have a big enough battery.

[@SaruwatariMasahiro]

@@nathanmutombo2866 oh no, sorry my man. I travel and move a lot internationally. So being able to throw my pc in my carry-on luggage when I go on a plane saves me having to sell and build a new one each time I move. So I don't need a battery, I just plug it in a wall wherever I'm living. Yeah a laptop might be more practical but the bang for buck is not the same in the long run :D. And no, sending it as a fragile package isn't really worth it either due to the transportation cost.

Colours on the Cintiq should be better. To get best colour calibration, you'll need to use a hardware colour calibrator. Software won't know what your eyes are looking at.

How did you callibrate your pen so well in the center?, ive been trying to callibrate my pwn to be right at the tip but its still a bit offset from the tip of the pen.

[@teohyc]

If the calibration always seems off, but consistently off in a certain way, for you. You may have to calibrate with that offset in mind. For example, if cursor is always to the left side, then when calibrating, click more towards the opposite (eg right) side.

Huion kamvas pro 16 ..VS.. Xp pen artist 15.6 ??

[@iamchristiandion]

I can tell you now, Huion wins. Xp pen has a good color gamut level, but it’s unbalanced, so the colors still aren’t as accurate as they should be. Their pen has tilt, but the sensitivity of it needs improvement, as the flow from light shading to dark shading lacks a good natural in between. The screen is laminated which means little to no parallax, but the pen will sometimes offset from the cursor if you’re tilting it. The screen is also not quite as “textured” as the Huion, probably because the Xp pen has an anti-glare film, while the .Huion has a natural coating that makes it non reflective, but also gives the surface texture without diffusing the colors. The only issue I really have with the Kamvas pro 16 is the retarded decision to put the power button right by the hot keys and the poorly designed stand. Everything else is amazing.

I nvr had a tablet screen before but i m interested to get one. i have a quesion for anyone who have a tablet screen. if i connect the tablet to a laptop, will i be able to use my laptop as a separate screen? I planning to use my laptop to display my reference and other stuff while working on the tablet.

[@teohyc]

It can be done. That's the extended screen mode.

should we apply a screen protector on it? matt screen protector, because i dont want to scratch the screen when drwing

There is already a screen protector on it

@@teohycHi, thanks for reply. i have noticed a thin protecter layerupon the screen. Which has a small note on it to the leftupper corner "wear this off before use" are you refering to that layer or is there another screenprotect. Already applied on the screen it self.

So, I just got it setted it up and everything. But the power button is red instead of green. nor will anything display on my huron. May you help me fix this?

Maybe not enough power? Did you connect the two USB cable?

I did indeed

[@jeju8796]

are the colors fairly accurate, straight of of the box, and is the sensitivity good when drawing especially light-handedly? also, how sensitive and useful is the touchbar? thank you for your time btw!!

[@TheGreatArlei]

@@jeju8796 I would definitely say the colors are fairly accurate (one of the best you'll get at this price range) out of the box but it also offers a lot of customization which I would definitely play with to fit you. It is really comfortable to draw on with a nice, subtle texture to it and incredible sensitivity. I wouldn't even worry about the sensitivity, it's great. I personally bought this device with the side buttons and touch bar in mind but I honestly haven't used them at all. Most people end up finding they are not very comfortable or efficient to use, regardless of the company. The touch bar is well calibrated and functions as expected though. The build quality of the tablet itself is incredible but the pen does feel a lot lighter than the ones Wacom offers and the two side buttons it includes often feel a bit "clicky". I use the pen buttons daily and they hold up perfectly though, no problems whatsoever. You do get used to it but I'd prefer a thicker and heavier pen. Overal a classy display for a fair price.

[@jeju8796]

@@TheGreatArlei thank you so much!

[@oliakeung7204]

I saw a lot of people saying the pen calibration was horribly off or the drivers didn’t work... can you recommend me a tablet below $400 for me? I was going for the kamvas 16 pro for a while and now I’m unsure

[@TheGreatArlei]

@@oliakeung7204 When it first came out the calibration was indeed broken but they quickly fixed all those driver issues within a few weeks and have since been updated regularly, with noticeable improvements. I personally have no calibration complaints. One thing you should not do is have other graphics tablets drivers installed in your system, they are not compatible. From my own experience I have not had any inconveniences. I believe Huion delivers a high quality product for a very fair price. As you may have read above, the only complain I've had is the physical quality of the pen, which isn't as good as Wacom's. Other than that the Kamvas Pro 16 is an excellent product and at that price range I honestly wouldn't recommend any other. Now if you are willing to pay two times the price I would certainly go for a Wacom tablet. If you have any other specific questions don't hesitate to ask.

[@andreikuzmin2693]

Hello. I bought this tablet recently, and I found that it has chromatic aberration - a slight blur of color at the contrasting edges of the picture. This is described as a normal thing in the user manual, but I think that this is a defect, and i constantly notice this chromatic aberration while I work. If you know, is this normal? Maybe all graphic tablets of this type have such defects, including Cintiq?

[@teohyc]

It could be due to the matte surface. But even so it should not be that noticeable.

[@andreikuzmin2693]

@@ying1296 I didn't manage to fix the problem. Maybe I'm too sensitive for the quality of picture, but for me I felt it as a problem. I advice you if you wanna buy it, find someone who already has it and see how is the picture. (Sounds weird). My personal opinion, its better to buy Xp pen artist 15.6 pro with a red wheel. I finally sold my Huion kamvas, but I did it because I had to get some money quickly. And now I draw on my Gaomon m106k as I did before, and I forgot my huion kamvas very quickly.👌

[@Brujitaloveskurama]

Do I need a screen protector for this pen tablet or is not necessary?

No screen protector needed. But this already comes with it. It prevents squeaky sound when drawing with the pen

Hi there i have a question and it would be a life saver if i can get a solution for my problem! My issue is that my mouse and pen are not in sync. Theres a big gap between them and i have no idea how to fix it. I guess my pen/mouse tracking has a problem? If anyone can tell me how i can fix this issue it would be great. Ive recently bought the tablet so im quite clueless. Thank you!❤

[@teohyc]

Use the installed driver to calibrate the pen. This will align the cursor to the pen tip.

@@teohyc may i ask for more elaborate explanation on how to calibrate the pen? The only device I've ever calibrated is my phone 😅

@@dorsab8627 Just click the Calibration button in the driver, then click on the crosshairs that appear with the pen tip. There should be four or eight crosshairs to click.

I wish the screen was more square than that wide.

It's actually better, since there is the ui that takes most of the space in the left side of the screen that typically contains layers and color palettes.

Still want to hear from you as to what the difference is between this and the xp pen artist 15.6 pro. Please do that. I see to many inconsistent comments on both.

You can check out the pros and cons list. I've reviewed too many such pen displays to remember. www.parkablogs.com/tags/pen-display

[@chrisdirk5291]

I do not have an HDMI port in my PC. I'm being told BY Huion that using an HDMI with a USB adapter won't work. If this is true, this NEEDS to be mentioned by you and ALL who review it. If it's not, then post here or update the video with some text stating otherwise. Since you can buy such a cable, there is no reason to think this would be an easy fix, order the Huion and the adapter, only to find this was a waste of time and money.

[@Adeltraut]

I don't know how driver issues can possibly worse than my experience with Wacom drivers and their stunningly incompetent and non caring Support (asking me to send in a cintiq companion for Hardware replacement when Windows 10 had some trouble with drivers or frequently offering to change display units when the matte protection cover ist scratched -.-')
