HUION Inspiroy H1060P Graphics Drawing Tablet with 8192 Pressure Sensitivity Battery-Free Stylus and 12 Customized Hot Keys, 10 x 6.25 inches Digital Art Tablet for Mac, Windows PC and Android

I ordered this tablet to replace my old Wacom Intuous (First Gen) pen tablet. I couldn't see shelling out $200 bucks or more on a Wacom Intuous Medium when this tablet did "almost" the same thing without tilt. Since I don't really use the tilt feature with digital airbrushes (My old Wacom didn't have it), I didn't feel like I would miss it. I needed the pen tablet for Architectural Rendering, Photo Touch-up, hobby comic drawing, working in office applications and review markups.I did not have high expectations, but when the pen tablet arrived I was floored! The tablet seems very well constructed, the Windows driver works just fine with one small exception I will note later, and it worked with all the applications I use. The pen glides nicely across the surface, and the pen itself feels good. The pen is about as heavy as a Sharpie Pen Stylo fine tip pen, has two buttons, and is rechargeable. (I charged it once for 4 hours, and I've used it all week long without any trouble.) To help others, here is what I tested the pen tablet with:Gimp 2.8Corel Painter 8Adobe PhotoshopAutodesk SketchBookDraftSightInkScapeMicrosoft Office (OneNote, Word, Excel, and Outlook)Microsoft VisioSketchupPicsArtKritaMS Paint... and the tablet worked with pressure sensitivity in all of them. The Windows driver allowed me to assign shortcuts to all of the buttons without any trouble. I really like the pen and the pen holder, and the extras including a travel pouch and glove that came with it. I really don't use the glove. Over the years of using real mediums and drafting, my hand is conditioned not to touch the tablet (paper/canvas) anyway, but it is nice that the manufacturer included it with the tablet free!Here is the one small exception I talked about earlier:If your computer goes into "sleep" mode, it can cause the pen not to register with the device. Simply unplug the USB cable, plug it back in, wait five seconds, and it works fine. I went ahead and turned sleep mode off on my desktop computer. On my laptop I just unplug and plug in when this occurs.The only other caveat, or just possibly a personal preference, is that the USB cord doesn't feel extremely "tough." Since I like things that feel durable, I ordered an extra USB cable. I ordered the IMKEY® Premium 6.5 Feet Tangle-Free Braided Micro USB 2.0 Sync Data Fast Charging Cable For Samsung,Google Nexus,Kindle,LG,HTC,Nokia,Motorola,Blackberry,And More - (Gray) cable because I like the durability while using it with my laptop. That way I could leave the factory cable attached to my desktop.I've read the reviews of others complaining about possible driver issues, but we have to be honest here. As a long time Wacom snob myself... Wacom's drivers were never very good either. I've spent close to a decade trying to get their drivers to work with new software, operating systems, and hardware changes. Huion's drivers seem to work just as good ;) and they have a brand new set of Mac driver updates that seem to work fine on the Mac's in the graphics department. I had to take my tablet to work and let the other artists drool over my new toy too! Now if only they eventually release their own Linux drivers...Linux Note: This tablet doesn't yet have Linux drivers, but the 610Pro does, and I have been able to get it to work on Ubuntu with those drivers without access to all the buttons, but it does work and so does the pressure sensitivity. You can get the Linux driver from the DIGImend project on GitHub.My Personal Recommendation (For what it is worth):I've been using pen tablets for over a decade, mostly for architectural rendering, company logos, and drawing "naughty" comics when I should be working (Hey don't judge me here...). I would strongly recommend this tablet to others. You get a very professional looking and working tablet that feels very durable for a fraction of the inflated priced Wacom equivalent. It has a nice large drawing area (about the same width as a standard keyboard without the number pad area), pen pressure sensitivity, and if you check out the Huion blogs, you'll find no shortage of interactive discussions where the manufacturer actually participates and responds to customer questions (not poking at Wacom at all here). The tablet doesn't make the artist, and most tablets will work for anyone who has experience with digital pens, but this tablet has all the bells and whistles (minus a pen with a gyroscope) that tablets priced $200 plus and above have for half the price. One last note: Since Wacom ships with some free painting software, I'd like to note that the fine group over at Krita has a free open source painting software you can download at Krita dot org.

Let me start by saying I am NOT an artist. I am an author, and I've been making my own covers for a few years now. But I have wanted to improve my skills for a long while. Unfortunately, trying to do fine details can be limited by a mouse. And I also have a VERY limited budget. So a fancy Wacom is definitely out of my price range. So far out of my price range it might as well be in another galaxy.When Prime Day hit, I thought let's look at tablets, just for the heck of it. I spent several hours looking at different tablets in my price range, reading reviews not just from Amazon but other sites as well, and finally settled on this one. It had the tilt settings and pressure sensitivity, and with the Prime Day discount I could work it into my budget.Family. Let me tell you something. I am kicking myself in the butt that I didn't buy a tablet sooner. Now, I have never used a fancy Wacom or other high-end tablet. I am moderately intelligent (although on some days I wonder about myself) and usually jump right into things and play around before I actually RTFM.I have a MacBook Pro and used the tablet's included adapter for USB-C to plug it directly into a port on my laptop. I have that docked to a large monitor. I spent a few minutes playing with it before I finally looked at the app that works with the tablet and started playing with settings. (Note: Depending on your computer's configuration, you might want to get a USB extender cord for the USB-C adapter so everything fits in your ports. I have not tried the tablet with a hub, so I don't know if there's any lag or not.)I have the Adobe suite of products and only know a few of the keyboard shortcuts. I programmed several of the hot-keys and buttons on the tablet (although they come with some default settings) and then really started "using" it. There is plenty (for me, at least) of room on the tablet itself to comfortably draw or design without being cramped into a small area.Again, I'm NOT an artist, so if you're doing something like full-on Pixar animation or something insane like that, this might not be the tablet for you. But for MY needs? It's beyond perfect. I made two book covers in less than a day, and before with a mouse and trying to clean up edges and masks and stuff, it would have taken me a LOT longer than that. I've been playing around with graphics tutorials for digital drawing and painting with it, and as long as I follow instructions and use the recommended settings in the graphics software, I get the intended output for my efforts. My goal is to be able to make artwork for my characters that I can add as bonus content for my readers.My only quip with this is likely a me thing, not a knock against the tablet, and that's the buttons on the stylus. They are programmable, but I have trouble holding the stylus in a way that I can either easily hit the buttons, or I accidentally keep hitting the buttons. To the point I might just deactivate them. (Again, this is probably a me thing, not a point against the tablet.) The stylus itself, to me, is comfortable to hold, and I have arthritis, so that's saying something. I can even use it with a wrist brace on with no trouble.I also ordered one of the Huion gloves with it, and that gives me a smooth action across the tablet and helps keep me from accidentally scratching it.I have since ordered another pack of gloves, but a generic "Amazon's Choice" multi-pack, and I notice no difference in performance for the better value. (I also ordered them larger to easily fit over my wrist brace I frequently use.) I also ordered an extra stylus and pack of nibs, because I know me, and I'd rather have extras on hand instead of months from now trying to figure out how to get those things because my AuDHD gremlin brain helpfully put them somewhere I'd NEVER lose them. LOLThe stylus holder that comes with the tablet can either hold it vertically, or you can lay the stylus across it. It also holds extra nibs that came with it, and has a built-in tool to help you replace nibs.The bottom line is if you're looking for a lower-priced graphics tablet that gives decent performance, this is a great model. If you're a parent looking to invest in one for your child, or you're a newbie to computer/digital graphics, this is for you. If you periodically need a good tablet to do things and it doesn't make sense to invest in one of the expensive ones, this is a good one for you.If something should change, I will update this, but so far I'm happy with it and look forward to improving my graphics skills now that I have a proper tool for the job.

The Drawing pad has some nice packaging and a sleek design, it looks pretty good.The functionality works as intended, no setup, just straight to working!Only issues? Leaving it plugged in- even when the pen is far from the pad, will randomly move your mouse to the left/middle of your screen. Its not too frequent, but random enough that I have to unplug it when I dont wanna use it.Overall, its a good product for its value.

I only started to learn how to draw a month ago and I was happy practicing with sketches on my sketchpad.I grew interested in digital art though and after learning about Krita and buying it off of Steam. I was able to grab this digital pad and pen for a cool 45 bucks, while it was on sale.The process to connect it to the computer was surprisingly simple and the drivers worked perfectly.It's taken some getting use to the drawing ability, on a pad instead of a pen, but after a week of playing with this pad and Krita. I've got a good feeling for this stuff.I haven't fully mastered this yet, but if you're a beginner like me, than this is a good starting point for trying out digital art.I'll update this in the future in case something goes wrong, but I'm pretty happy with my purchase so far.
