It's not better, but I'm still replacing my Cintiq Pro | Kamvas Pro 24" 4K

In this video I review the Kamvas Pro 24 inch 4K tablet, and see how it compares to the gold standard Cintiq Pro. tl;dr....
...The Kamvas Pro 24" 4K tablet isn't better than the Cintiq Pro, because the screen doesn't feel as good. But after using it for 9 months I stopped caring as much and hardly notice the difference. After using it consistently, I've found the smaller form factor and lack of fan noise to be an even better benefit than the smoother screen on the Cintiq.
Overall, I can't say that switching to this tablet had a positive or negative impact on my art. Both tablets are great. If you're a professional or are very dedicated to digital art (i.e. do digitial art 5 or more hours a week) go with the Cintiq Pro. But if you want to save some money and still have a great tablet experience, the Kamvas Pro is more the sufficient to deliver.
This video took a really really long time to make, because toddlers require way more attention than I previously anticipated.

#TabletReview #DigitalArt

[@DraconicA5]

I recently bought this tablet and, to my surprise, the pen is very similar to my old Cintiq, but it is half the price of Cintiq Pro 24 in my country, so it is completely worth it! In terms of color, Windows Color Management has issues with wide color displays. Because I use SpyderX Pro to calibrate all of my monitors, I noticed this problem right away after calibrating my Huion. If you're using a nvidia GPU, use a calibrated color profile with "novideo_srgb", or "dwm_lut" for everything else. This will fix the color problem. The Kamvas Pro 24 4k has 100% sRGB, 96% adobeRGB, 89% P3, and 91% NTSC after calibration. It's an excellent display panel.

[@Milan____]

Thank you for saying that! I've watched like 6 reviews of this tablet screen, and you are the first one to mention calibration! I know that it seems like a strange idea to spend $150 to calibrate colors, because after all, you're an artist, and you're supposed to know colors, but... no. Calibration does so much more than ordinary human, even one very experienced in art, could do by hand. Always calibrate every screen you work on. The results are worth it, *especially* if you don't have a $3000+ EIZO screen or similar.

[@htsunmiku]

Best authentic and honest pen display review EVER!! I have had Wacom Cintiq and use KAMVAS pro 22 now and completely endorse this informative comparison. Well done🤙

[@octopioctopus]

I'm glad you're continuing the review series! The user error joke made me laugh. I wasn't expecting to upgrade my 22" Kamvas this soon but due to a combination of factors (a friend is willing to buy my 22", this video) I might do so sooner than I thought. The 4k screen is especially appealing to me because due to the lower resolution of the 22" Kamvas I find myself zooming in more than I expect to work on details.

[@TaylorStine]

Thanks for sticking around, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! The 4k screen is really nice in the 24", probably worth the upgrade. I definitely didn't have any problems with the resolution (so much so that I didn't even think to mention it). I still haven't quite mastered putting in fine details to my drawings, but I think that has a lot to do with the fact that I'm still learning (plus I sort of like a messy / sketchy look, so I can hide behind my deficiencies😋).

[@defdaz]

Great video. Thanks!

[@gentarox]

I used to delve in the lower-price range of tablets and had a Huion tablet - about a year after purchasing it the screen started coming off and the closer i got to the edge of the display, the more accurate it registered the pen. Over the course of two weeks Huion tried compensating me with 20€, 40€, then wanted to replace it if I paid 40€, then 20€ and only then they would be willing to replace it for free. I've had a good time with the tablet - but once you have to contact support you will quickly realize what part you saved on.

[@HoszHosz]

Excellent comparison. Can anyone tell what's the dimension of the base, when it's totally vertical like in 3:14? I need to know if it will fit on my 26cm monitor shelf.

[@davontabeckham]

Hi Taylor, how did you connect 2+ monitors to your Huion? I am having trouble connecting my huion to my MacBook and extended monitor.

[@dragick5646]

I've been using my Huion Kamvas pro 20 for 2+ years now and when I first use it, the cursor was off slightly to me. But then I got use to it. I had bought a cintiq pro 24 this year to upgrade from my kamvas pro 20 but I returned it cause the fan was annoying (I thought I wouldnt mind but it's bothered me, its louder than expected) and the most important reason I couldn't deal with it because it wouldnt work right in clip studio (pen input unresponsiveness every 10 sec of drawing which created a straight line cause the .5 sec of no input) Photoshop didnt have this issue. I try to troubleshoot but I couldnt find a fix and since clip was my main program, the cintiq pro had to be returned. And yes I agree a lot with what was said in the video. the cintiq definitely have a nicer feel and control, with more accuracy to its drawing experience. not sure how much change they did to the screen between my huion kamvas pro 20 2019 and the current flagship of huion but from what you said, I feel like I have a similar experience. while the drawing experience was definitely nicer, I didnt care anymore about the drawing experience cause the cintiq had annoying problems that my old kamvas did not. however, if you are really into drawing and inking, the cintiq is nice and might be for you if u got the $ to spend but you are able to still achieve nice results with the kamvas. I would say my main problem with my kamvas now is the color and clarity when painting. Found out I get a better experience when dealing with colors and paints when I switch to my main monitor and just use my kamvas like those no screen tablet. For drawing, I use it regularly, its quick to switch which monitor register pen input with the huion app. Tldr: Overall, I would not get the cintiq cause its more cumbersome than the kamvas (size matter and the fan on cintiq is annoying, also the temp compare to kamvas 20 inch is noticable but not a big deal) but if you place drawing experience above all those ergonomics than the cintiq is for you if you got the $$$$.

[@TaylorStine]

I've definitely shared a similar experience - I switched to Photoshop because my brushes in Clip Studio felt a little bit off (maybe it was just a driver issue or something they've since fixed). Even though I have the Cintiq Pro, it's sitting in my closet for now because I'm loving the extra space on my desk with the Huion (since I work from home a couple days a week it's not as cumbersome). I'm curious to see how the colors affect me once I start getting in to painting (I feel like I'm going to have to print out the art to check).

[@djokotriono7787]

[@Wraith26]

[@TheKevphil]

I just replaced my Cintiq 21UX 2 with the Huion 16 Pro Plus 4K and think it is a step up, certainly from 13-year-old tech. ;) I would have bought the model you have, but I let fiscal restraint get the better of me. _lol_ One thing about even my old Wacom is the "Flex" nib available for it: A wonderful piece of tech indeed!

[@gcastro3d]

How does the Huion compare to the xp-pen from your previous review? I'm looking at the Huion 24 plus 2k vs xp-pen 24 2k

[@thewaxlab]

Totally agreed. As a ZBrush sculptor, the 16” Kamvas pro is unbeatable on portability. Single USB 3 cable for power and data on a M2 MBP.

[@user-ol6mx]

is 16‘‘ enough for sculpting?

[@thewaxlab]

I love the 16” for sculpting. I even like how portable it is.

[@myfantasie]

Is it possible to use a huion and wacom on one computer? I heard there are issues with the drivers if you run them both at the same time. I'm considering getting a Hunion 24 4k, but want to keep my Wacom tablet connected so I can switch back and forth between the two devices.

[@joechapman8208]

You mentioned not liking the colour temperature of the Kamvas. I have the Kamvas Pro 16, so I'm assuming this is the same: did you know you can hold down the power button to access the on-screen display, and change it there?

[@deuswulf6193]

Would you say this or the XP Pen 24incher felt better? I have an old cintiq 20wsx and a huion 16 incher, one is too old, low rez and hot, the other too small for my taste. Thinking about upgrading without breaking bank.

[@DaneMurdock]

Really glad to see a proper long term review of these newer Huion tablets. I've been considering the 16 inch version, but I was curious about the initial activation force of the pen. Are you able to do featherlight touches with it? Like can you make a mark with the only the weight of the pen or does it require some force to activate?

[@TaylorStine]

I'm going to say - yes, I think so (it has featherlight touch). I just tried to put as little force as possible on the pen and it made a mark most of the time, but it was sort of hard to put such a small amount of force on it. I think it would be hard to notice the tiny amount of force you need to make it actually activate. Here's a video I just took of me trying this with the Hard Round brush in photoshop: imgur.com/a/uk1v8XY

[@DaneMurdock]

@@TaylorStine Thanks for that. That might still be a deal breaker for me, but it does look like it is probably adequate. Just for the distinction, my Wacom 13 HD and my ipad/apple pencil would not skip at all under those circumstances. I tend to draw with an extremely light touch, so it is tough to judge without getting my hands on one. I really appreciate the reply and video.

[@dragick5646]

@@DaneMurdock if memory serve me right, the samsung tab s6 uses wacom emr technology too and I just did the test like Taylor and it's skipping too (tho correct me if im wrong). I don't think you can go that featherlight with the way one normally hold a pencil to draw. I mean wacom drawing experience is better (its the screen quality and grit (result in more control) that differentiate it but the price doesnt justify the niche in control for me) but initial activation force is not an issue unless youre purposely testing for it. I draw light and it's no issue for me tho I'm curious if you hold the wacom pen the same way and dont really put pressue on it, just featherlight drags, would it skip or stay consistent. If so then it's another pro on wacom I'll have to consider on my next buy.

[@DaneMurdock]

@@dragick5646 I have a samsung galaxy book 12 that uses Wacom EMR. There is a distinct difference between the S-Pen on all samsung devices (phones/tablets/laptops) and the cintiq stylus/apple pencil in terms of activation force. I have a damaged wrist, and I draw with a super light touch. Drawing with my Samsung is much more painful over time than my other devices because I need to be more deliberate with the amount of pressure I use. I would say for most people, this is not an issue, but it is for me specifically.

[@dragick5646]

@@DaneMurdock thank you for clarifying, well that's one additional pros to the wacom I'll have to consider when upgrading, tho by that time, I hope huion or other competitors catches up so there won't be a difference in drawing experience, just a difference in specs, material...or wacom gets better ergonomics (destroy the annoying fan! lighter weight and thinner bezels, just add a side magnetic tray that works like the pen clip) and better pricing.

I just left a message about why I smashed my savings and got the Cintiq,on an older comparison video you did,but I’m mad about it so… I had 2 huion tablets fail on me, one just out of warranty one after a month, same fault. ‘The USB device not recognised” of death. Tried replacing the cable on the first one, the second one is just going back. I got the Cintiq on sale for £400 cheaper than the RRP…Still not cheap but if it lasts it’ll work out cheaper than having to spend half the price 2-3 times more often. I’m looking to get 6-7 years investment out of it.

[@pablov3d]

does it presure stop working properly in zbrush. when you have photoshop and Zbrush open at the same time? i had that issue and i had to selll my huion cuz i need to work with both sofware at the sem time

[@TaylorStine]

YES! I totally forgot to bring this up! Ah! Yes, this does happen to me. BUT it happens with my Cintiq Pro too so I thought it was my computer. It was so frustrating to figure out because it's not super obvious when the pressure isn't working for Zbrush. My solution was to just use one at a time, I need to dig more into this. Thanks for reminding me!

[@MagnetiqLabs]

Thank you for the review! I want to buy this tablet, but I'm worried about two things. I read a review where the author says that this tablet has a 2200 nits of brightness, which means it is not bright enough in a modern standards. I'm worried about it because i'm usually use my MacBook on almost full brightness. Do you feel a lack of brightness with this Huion tablet? And another question is about the pen. I read the review where artist says that with this pen you have to press harder to start the drawing. He says that he like to draw with minimal pressure when you can draw without pressing on the screen but simply under the influence of the weight of the pen. And he says that this tablet will not start to draw with such a light pressure, so this is a deal breaker for him. I think i like to draw with a bit of pressure, but still a bit of worried after his words. Have you ever experienced discomfort because you have to push harder on a screen than you would like? Sorry about a bit stupid questions, but i really like this tablet, but i didn't have a chance to try it before buying.

[@CarolinaBlood704]

[@DraconicA5]

The only noticeable difference between Huion new PW517 (on 4k models) vs Wacom Pro pen 2 is the pressure curve, which you can change in the setting. The felt nibs are made from paper, so you might need to replace it once per month for frequent usage. The cintiq companion uses pro pen 1, so the new huion pen is better since it's really similar to wacom pro pen 2. The 4k is 100% worth it if you have the budget, you don't have to zoom in for details which helps saving a lot of time. The Kamvas pro 24 4k has better report rate and response time than Kamvas 22 plus. I think it is worth the upgrade if you can afford it.

[@octopioctopus]

@@DraconicA5 Hello DrakorY! I own the kamvas 22 as well, but I was considering the upgrade to the 24 4k due to less zoom-in for details. Would you mind elaborating on this a bit?

[@DraconicA5]

@@octopioctopus it's about pixel density. Place your phone next to your current monitor to see the stark difference between low and high pixel density. A 24" 4k resolution monitor has 184 PPI, while a 22" 1080p monitor has 102 PPI. Even at a normal drawing distance, you can almost see no pixel. Because your eyes can read text as small as on your phone, you don't need to zoom in much. The high pixel density also allows you to notice minor errors on your canvas and clean it up faster. On Windows, you can change the UI scale, which will not affect the quality of your photo or the PPI of your canvas but will make the UI easier to see, just like on your phone. The only downside is that a good computer is required to process everything in 4k. You're good to go if your PC has at least 4 cores and 8GB of RAM.

I actually went ahead and did exactly like you did : bought those two models : XP-PEN and HUION along with the CINTIQ 22 HD.

I think it's helpful, not necessarily for the sculpting but for being able to interact with the UI. For example if you're going to use ZBrush, 4k is going to be a big help. The UI is so ugly and overcrowded, the extra space is really helpful.

"No fan noise" That's such a massive advantage Huion and XP-Pens have over these big ass Wacoms. I used to have a XP-Pen Artist 24 and it didn't have any fan noise, while remaining completely cool. Now I have a Wacom Cintiq 24 Pro and this shit can get so fucking loud, it's ridiculous. And that's with the settings for better cooling off, which would usually make it loud. People should not underestimate how annoying fan noise can be, if you're not constantly listening to music or whatever.

[@TaylorStine]

Usually when I realize it's happening, I'll turn off the screen and have an "aaahhhh" moment when the silence settles.

One thing I took away from this: Don't have kids around tablets LOL. I'm too freaked out to let anyone slap a pen on the screen. Having owned the Kamvas 22 Plus I'd have to ask, what was the colors like exactly? Cause on the 22 Plus it was rather weird. The greens were neon, the blues just weren't blue enough, and the reds were REAL RED, the nice thing was the blacks were black and sharp as can be. But the issue was those colors. It's impossible to do anyhting about it and calibrating it can only go so far with how it's set up. Is this the same way? I'm hardpressed on getting a Kamvas Pro series. The difference in price for Canada isn't exactly the best. it's almost more worth it to save the few hundred bucks and get a Cintiq Pro 24. Using the Cintiq 22, while the colors are definitely not the best, it's still closer to what I'd expect I'm picking than anything. Definitely not worth the HUGE price jump from 22 Plus to this, BUT... Colors? I guess? Cintiq is STILL top-notch when it comes to the WAY more important, FAR more important than Pressure levels: Activation Force. Not many people understand or even think about it. They hear Pressure sensitivity and assume it's great for ALL ranges. Using the GT19 Huion model I understand just how important such a thing is. The less force it requires the more you can take advantage of w/e pressure levels they offer from the lowest to highest ranges. Kamvas 22Plus definitely felt great, and the parallax was damn-near 0. Hopefully Wacom does another "cheap alternative" and reduces parallax.

How did you know I wanted to see that cut at the end? Kids. If you know, you know.

[@jameslovesart3408]

I wanted to buy a Cintiq but the taxes cost more than the Cintiq so I gave up.

[@---ml4jd]

no fan noise??? Srsly???

[@TaylorStine]

🤙🤌

[@williammclean6594]

I was looking at like a bunch of reviews one artist that I follow Marc Brunet he already has an expensive cintiq but they gave him this tablet to review and he says he likes it better set the screen feels like closer to paper then the cintiq. I guess everyone has their opinion

[@TaylorStine]

@HuionTablet FYI I am also willing to say this, please give me free tablets.

[@williammclean6594]

@@TaylorStine yeah he wasn't being biased he actually does use it over his cintiq it wasn't a sponsored video or anything but a lot of artists will say whatever to get free stuff

[@TaylorStine]

@@williammclean6594 I feel you, nah I'm just being facetious. I think it is fair, especially if you use the paper nibs I do get a paper vibe. I also haven't switched back, so it's a great feeling tablet in my book.

[@williammclean6594]

@TaylorStine yeah I'm starting to get into art a lot and I've been researching which tablet to get but I'll probably go with the 16-inch version of this I don't have a lot of disk space.

[@pOgOstyle]

Fyi: He doesn't use the huion anymore an unlisted the videos from his channel.

[@BuckRogers2000]

Surely your toddler is the reason you're smashing your felt nibs? Some artists never change their original nibs. I have, only to see if there was any difference after a few years of use. There wasn't any discernable at all.

[@elie535]

NO~😅😭

Hi, bro, excuse me, in my video there is a video of Huion Kamvas Pro 27, which is the new product of Huion sold in China, if you are interested, you can have a look, thank you!

[@ibrodawae]

Cintiq 24 pro screen is awful.. Ive sold it

[@ghklfghjfghjcvbnc]

Hi Taylor, and everyone else who has a Kamvas Pro 24. Does anyone have issues where (moments arise where when your pen makes contact/taps onto the monitor, the "hit" does not register)? I've had FRUSTRATING moments where I am tring to click on layers and the huion and pen do not communicate. I've had this Huion product for two years and it continually does this. It happens even when I try to pause and play youtube videos. Then my other MASSIVE frustration is when there are moments where I temporarily switch from the pen and try to use mouse while using Photoshop or other software like Premiere or even 3D. The mouse will fly off and into the top left corner of the screen or the bottom right corner of the screen. I HATE it when that happens. Does the Wacom Cintiq do detrimental quirks like i am experiencing with the Huion? I have all drivers updated and no other variables to cause this. Please, if someone has experience with this or can verify that the Wacom will NOT behave like this, I will get the Cintiq. Appreciate anyone who bothers to reply. Thank you all.

[@TaylorStine]

I haven't experienced the "no hit" issue 😕. The only time I've seen unusual behavior with both the Cintiq and the Kamvas is the pressure sensitivity will occasionally not work on random pen strokes. It happens with both tablets, so I'm not sure. The only other time I have similar issues is when I have ZBrush and Photoshop open at the same time, but nothing like the "no hit" issue you described. Maybe try purchasing a new pen, or inserting a new nib? I've had really good luck with the Huion paper like nibs. If the nib is loose (my toddler throws the pen a lot) sometimes weird things happen. I haven't had the mouse thing happen either. I wonder if the issue you're having is related to the mouse you're using. Maybe the drivers are conflicting with the pen tablet drivers. I use the Razer Basilisk Ultimate and have had good luck. Or maybe switch up your USB connection cables?

[@ghklfghjfghjcvbnc]

@@TaylorStine Hi Taylor. Thank u for taking the time to read and respond to my rant. I will experiement and test the possible mice variable. But that is a good thing to hear that is a rare situation pertaining to just me.

[@marks2708]

Sorry man but this Huion is no where close to the cintiq pro. I bought this one and sent it back. Full of connection issues with the mac and color calibration issues as well. Not to mention no touch controls and the edge near the bezel has pointer tracking issues. If the new cintiq was 10/10, the Huion would be a 5/10.

[@DraconicA5]

A $150 color calibration tool could easily correct the color issues. Rather than spending an extra $1,000 USD. I did a lot of research before buying this one, and it is way better than my expectation. If Wacom is 10/10, then this Huion should be at least 9/10. I disable the touch input on my old Cintiq Pro because it is inconvenient. On Wacom, touch input has never been a good thing. Its palm rejection is extremely poor implemented. And why would you want to use touch on MacOS? Touch input on MacOS is extremely poor in comparison to all other operating systems. The Cintiq Pro also has poor pen tracking at the edge. I believe you are lying about using Cintiq Pro and purchasing Huion. Wacom is still superior, but Huion is not nearly as bad as you claim. If you have the cash, Wacom is a no-brainer. However, if a professional does not have a large budget, Huion should be a better choice.

[@williammclean6594]

A lot of professional artists say it's better though he probably just had some bad experience with it but still if you want to save money it's better than spending a thousand extra dollars
