After using a small Wacom Bamboo for years, I was ready to upgrade to a display tablet for the digital drawing I was doing almost daily as a hobby. I was seriously considering the Cintiq 27 QHD (or some other Cintiq), but I was hesitating to drop so much money on a piece of technology that would be completely new to me. I'd heard of the Huion before, and after reading (and watching) a ton of reviews, I was convinced. A third of the price for all the functionality I needed, what more could I want? First thing to note, this thing is HUGE! Measure your desk space and make sure you have enough room to use it. I had to sacrifice one of my external monitors, but it's okay because I draw on this way more than I use my second monitor. Be careful getting it out of the box, it's a bit unwieldy! However, it was super easy to set up and install and before long I was drawing! One thing to note, if you have the antimalware app "Malwarebytes" it will quietly prevent the installation from working. Disable it temporarily through the install process and Huion will install all the drivers. Also, when you launch the Huion app, it will run in the background, and is accessible through the little toolbar icons on your task bar. Make sure you go through the screen calibration before you start so that your pen marks in the right place. Because the screen has a nice matte finish (for that great tactile feel while drawing) the blacks are not pure black which can cause your work to need color correcting afterward. I heard the same thing happens with Cintiq display tablets as well. Adjusting your monitor helps, or you can mirror your displays so you can see your work on your other monitor while you draw. The pen is a good size, and I love that this comes with an extra pen and the protective glove! The artwork is responsive and clear, and it's very comfortable to work on. I always feel like a pro working on such a huge screen. Best of all, I've been able to crank drawings out much faster with it! My main drawing program is Clip Studio Pro Ex (which I also recommend to anyone in the illustration business). This was not just a worthy investment, it's also a great price. I definitely recommend it to everyone shopping for display tablets. One more thing for full transparency: I bought this with my own money for full price about a month and a half ago. Recently, Huion contacted me and said they would send me a gift if I left a review this week. I was planning on writing a review anyway after I had it for a few more months, but I won't turn down a gift either! Regardless, this is still a reflection of my true feelings about the product.

Huion KAMVAS GT-221 Pro HD Drawing Monitor Pen Display with 10 Press Keys and 8192 Pressure Sensitivity - 22.1 Inch I used to love sketching and painting back in high school but I let my art go as I got older. But my love of comic books and anime never went away, so I decided that I should get back into it. I've always liked watching youtube video's of digital art speed painting and comic book line art and kept seeing people using pen displays and thought it would be a great way to start re-learning to draw. Being a tech fan, I started researching graphics pen display's and kept seeing Wacom displays but I don't have that kind of money. lol I had a chance to try an Apple Ipad Pro 12.9 inch and while it was very nice to draw on, I wasn't happy being semi locked in to apple software and the difficulties in basic file transfers to my Windows 10 PC really bugged me so I returned it. I then tried the latest Microsoft Surface Pro and that was very nice. Almost perfect but the screen was a bit to small for Photoshop. So I figured I'd go for a larger Pen Display that I could use with my main computer. I saw a lot of good review on youtube for the Huion GT 191 and the Huion GT-221 Pro and while it was a bit more expansive than I was wanting to spend, I'm very glad I got it. So far it's been almost the perfect solution for what I wanted. Zero issue's with driver installation and performance has been great. I use the GT-221 mainly with Photoshop CC and Clip Studio Paint and I'm loving the pressure sensitivity and the feel of the pen is also very good. I will say that the hotkey buttons on the side are handy but to be honest I don't use them as much as I thought I would. I probably should have gone for the lower cost GT-191 that doesn't have the buttons but either way it's a great device. I'm really enjoying relearning sketching and while I still have a long way to go with my comic art it's nice to know I have a good device to work with. The only con for the GT-221 I can find is that I wish it was a 2k or maybe even a 4k display. But even as a 1080p display the colors and clarity are still very good. It's really nice to see other companies giving Wacom a run for the money in this area of technology. Keep up the good work Hion.

I recently bought this to replace my Cintiq 12WX, so keep that in mind as you read this review. I do not have much experience with the larger Cintiq model but I did use my 12WX for about 6 years. I've also used the Intuos models and Wacom AES pens on 2 in 1 devices. I've been using this device for about 3-4 weeks. When looking to replace my 12WX, I was interested in checking out alternative products to Wacom's Cintiq. I also wanted a larger sized tablet without digging too deep into my bank account. I eventually settled on Huion out of the competitors like XP-Pen, Yiyinova, Monoprice and Ugee. Huion seemed to be making the biggest push as a serious competitor to Wacom. I settled on this model since it seemed to be Huion's best offering. Negatives -While it is a significant step up from my 12WX, the display on the Kamvas GT-221 is short of being a high quality display. I do a lot of painting so in order to know what colors I'm actually using, I have to check it against my calibrated monitor every so often. I had to this with my 12WX so its not really a big deal for me, but it might be for you. -No tilt capabilities. I was little apprehensive about going in without tilt sensitivity but after some rough math, I figured only about 12-15% of my brushes used tilt sensitivity. I've often adjusted settings on brushes to get the strokes and textures I need so if you have some experience adjusting or making your own brushes, you should be able to overcome this minor hurdle. I would like to see Huion put out tilt sensitive devices in the future, but at this point, it really isnt too bad. Positives Pretty much everything else! -This Kamvas works really well for what I need it for. I've tested in Photoshop, Clip Studio/Manga Studio and Illustrator and have had zero issues with any of the programs. I'll update this review if I happen to run into issues with other programs but these are the main ones I use. -Programmable side buttons on the display -The build quality is very good. Everything feels sturdy and nothing feels cheap. -The stand is very solid. I will likely put my Kamvas on a monitor arm so I can draw standing up like I could previously (I've changed my entire workstation set up since deciding to upgrade) -Two pens are included. I charged one pen and have yet to have to charge it again. I think I've seen some reviews mention the pens as needing to charge as negative but it is a total nonissue. -The glove included is pretty nice, I hadnt used these digital drawing sort of half gloves before but they ease the side of your palm against the display so you can long uninterrupted strokes Overall, the Kamvas has worked well with everything I need it to. It has increased my work efficiency and eased eye strain. While some of these positives may come from upgrading from an older and smaller Cintiq, I cannot imagine the comparable Cintiq model would be doing a much better job. There are some minor downsides in comparison, a better screen would be great and tilt sensitivity would be nice to have, but the Kamvas is definitely worth your consideration if you are looking for this type of device.

I feel the most important thing for me to say here is I love this. I haven't had anything capable of bringing me close to replicating my traditional pencilling process quite like this. I've tried out a Cintiq Companion prior to this and the feel couldn't be compared. I've been using my Intuos 4 Med since they first came out up until I got this one, and its been life-changing for me to feel like I could finally afford a pen tablet display because I've aspired to get one for close to 12 years now and Wacom's products not only seemed all over the place in terms of specs, but outrageously priced even after depreciation. First of all, I am primarily a traditional artist. Digital art has always been incredibly hard for me to get into and always lacked the detail and accuracy I was able to incorporate into my traditional works. Keeping that in mind, in one week of using this I've taken the biggest leap in digital capability since I first started. Response Time & Accuracy: The response time on this display is quick and very responsive. It's noticeably faster than both my Intuos4 and the Cintiq Companion I've used in the past. With the right in-program settings, it's unnoticeable and to keep it synchronized I use an incredibly small crosshair to denote where my pen tip is on the page for when I'm moving fast. I've gone through the calibration process several times and I find the accuracy very good if you configure it in the natural position you hold your pen. If you hold it straight out or stiffly because you're over-focused on nailing the dots just right, it'll be slightly off for your natural movements and can be minutely jarring. If it's your first time using a pen display, it's important to keep in mind that your pen will never be 100% accurately lined up with the cursor at all viewing angles because the screen glass will always separate the two. this can cause stroke accuracy issues if you're not lined up with your pen at the viewing angle you calibrated your stroke at in that area of the screen. Overall it's pretty minor if you're mindful of it and get used to it over time. Sensitivity: I'm mentioning this because I saw a few reviews talk about a lack of accuracy at low pressure levels. Personally I have had zero issue with the 1%~30% range and within CLIP Studio Paint (my preferred inking and pencilling program) I can choose any colossal sized brush and still get 1-5px strokes. You have to be incredibly light-handed and soft, but the amount of pressure depth is phenomenal and I absolutely adore it. It's so sensitive, in fact, I had to adjust the minimum pixel size of some of my brushes to get more consistent line widths while I'm adjusting so such a stark increase. I'll include an example with this review of brush strokes and dots on it. If you're not getting this level of control there might be an issue with either your program settings, drivers, hardware or practice and it'd be good to check it out. Display: Honestly with any display that you want colour accuracy and crisp picture for artwork, you should try to use the DVI output. HDMI is okay if you take the time to adjust your settings and have another calibrated screen to compare it to, like a smartphone (the difference will show up in blacks very prominently between HDMI and DVI on most displays with default settings.) Even with DVI the display isn't as crisp and as sharp as the display on a smartphone or a very nice monitor, but the difference is a slight, almost miniscule softness that shows no noticeable quality differences between my work on the Kamvas tablet vs my calibrated test display. It might be a result of the protective surface over the display itself because of how muted it seems. Overall it's been a very positive experience for me. The only caveat I've had thus far is a complication with the drivers. I've taken the advice to use the ones provided on the website, and this could be because of my computer (as it's dying and in the middle of being replaced in the next few weeks) or an incompatibility. The drivers keep reloading and causing my active program to go out-of-focus. Sometimes it won't register press key strokes, and other times it'll think the press key is still depressed until I press another. Their customer support has been incredibly responsive, and since I'm having a pile of other application and driver related issues, it might not be due to these drivers or Kamvas themselves. I wanted to make a note of this here anyways just in case and will follow up later once I've tested it out more and had more feedback from Huion. However this issue isn't much of a deterrent to the product itself and, although annoying, didn't impact my overall rating. Thank-you for taking the time to read my review. I'll also include a few snapshots of a WIP pencilling I've done solely on this product and CLIP Studio Paint.

First off, I will preface this with two things. 1) I am not a professional artist. I am very amateur/hobbyist. So far I have actually used it more for photo editing, but have done some drawing. I've used it with Photoshop CC (latest) and Clip Studio. 2) I have little experience with display tablets. I've never touched a Cintiq. The only pen displays I've used is a Surface Pro 4 (2015 version) and 2018 iPad (not Pro). With that out of the way, let's actually get to the review! ======== PACKAGING: Very well packaged, including rigid boards in both sides of the box to prevent it from being smashed. It felt very much like a premium item. APPEARANCE: As soon as I took it out of the box, it felt great. It looks and feels very nice and high quality. It's not too heavy, but also doesn't feel cheap and light/super plasticy. It's light enough to move around with ease. It is bigger than I imagined, and I wasn't sure I would like this big of a tablet, but I really do! It does feel better than a smaller screen, and works better as a third monitor than a smaller screen would, too! I also love the professional looking box the pen comes in. SETUP: Turns out, my graphics card only had one HDMI port and a billion Display Ports (wtf?) so I had to get an adapter to use this along with my two normal monitors. The cords come out the right side of the display, which is an improvement from older models where it comes out the bottom. But, it's something to keep in mind for your placement. It's perfect for when I pull the display directly in front of me, but not the greatest when it's off to my right (though not a big deal, either. I've tied all the cables together). Software setup was easy, though I didn't have any previous tablet drivers to cause conflicts. At first the cursor appeared on the wrong monitor, but this was easily fixed with the calibration in the software. DISPLAY: I actually quite like the screen! While it may not be as sharp or vibrant as some screens I've seen, I actually quite like the matte texture. I'm very glad it's a matte glass instead of shiny with a screen protector. Helps with glare, too! It feels nicer to draw on than my glossy Surface Pro 4 (which gets so oily), and also has more natural color as well. The color isn't as good as my normal monitors, but it works just fine for my purposes. It definitely helped to make sure "Output dynamic range" was set to "Full" in my NVIDIA settings, otherwise it was washed out (luckily I had seen this on a normal monitor before so I knew where to look). ACCURACY: As I'm not a professional, I can't speak for the pressure sensitivity. It seems fine to me. I get nice thin lines and thick when I want. That said, there is a small accuracy problem with the cursor. I have run calibration several times, but my drawings still won't quite line up to the pen. It's a good few millimeters off, even in the center of the screen. I've been told by support this is fairly normal. It's something I can get used to, but is my main reason for the 4 star rating. This is where my Surface Pro 4 shines...it always feels very accurate from pen tip to line. PEN/PEN BUTTONS: I have some gripes with the pen, and other than the accuracy issue mentioned above, it's my biggest complaint. It's comfortable to use, however the buttons just aren't as functional as Wacom's. The pen buttons only act as a "click" of whatever key you have set. You cannot set them to act as a "hold". So, you are currently unable to set one of them to pan the canvas, or as a key like alt to get eyedropper while painting. I also don't see a way to turn OFF the buttons. Yes, I can set them to be undefined, but sometimes when I bump the buttons while drawing a line, it interrupts my drawing. I've heard that eventually they want to allow "hold" functionality (after all, the buttons on the side of the display itself DO allow for this). I hope it comes sooner than later. PEN CHARGING: People complain about having to charge the pen, but I don't think it's such a big deal. It seems to have a lot of battery life, and at least when I purchased, they gave a full second pen for free, so you can use one and charge the other. I think it would have been much cooler if you could plug the pen in to the back of the display to charge it, though (maybe built in to the pen holder!). There is no USB port to plug in the charging cord on the display, so you have to plug it in to your PC, a hub, etc. PEN HOLDER: I do like that there is a built in pen holder, but it's in such an awkward spot I have to stand up to put it in! It's not a good spot to just rest the pen while you go to look something up on your other screen. I think I would have preferred something that magnetizes to the side of the display, or maybe something still on the back but much closer to the edge. Where it is now, some people seem to not even know it's there! Luckily, I still have a pen holder on my table from an old Bamboo tablet :p As mentioned, I think it would also be nice if it doubled as the pen charger, instead of having a cord that can't even hook in to the monitor itself. DISPLAY BUTTONS: I love the buttons on the sides of the tablet. It's very helpful on a non-touch capable device. However, I wish that there was a bit more customization here. The buttons on the left and right are mirrored for people of different-handedness. It would be nice if there was an option to unlock the other side for more hotkeys (instead of mirrored) or to disable functionality on one side. I've actually had times where my hand hits the "zoom" bar on the opposite side and takes my canvas for a ride. Overall, though, it's not too big of a deal. STAND: I know a lot of people buy arms for their tablets, but for now I've stuck with the stand. I have a big enough desk anyway! The stand is easy to use and not super bulky. It has a pretty good range of angles. Though, once you get to flatter angles it feels a bit less stable (though not horribly so), because the base of the monitor is no longer on the table. But, that's a flatter angle than I work at anyway! ======== So, while it certainly has some issues and improvements that could be made, I think this is a great tablet, especially for non-professionals who don't have a huge budget to spend, but still want more than a non-display tablet (but still potentially a great choice for professionals, too...I just can't really speak for it in that capacity). I've had great experiences with it so far, and I hope they continue to improve this line. I chose this one over their other models specifically because of the matte glass screen (rather than a taped-on screen protector) and thought the side buttons could be useful.

I'm a big fan of Huion display tablets. I started with the Kamvas 13, then the Kamvas Pro 16, and now the Kamvas 22 and I've never been disappointed in the quality of any of them. My only gripe with the 22 was that it lacks the programmable hotkey buttons built-in on the side like the 13 and 16 have, but I was willing to shell out a bit more for the Keydial Remote (on sale, of course, but it's crucial if you rely on the smaller model's hotkeys like I do). This thing is LARGE, and the stand for it is very big as well, so definitely make sure you have the desk space for it. Super easy to get set up and just GO. Not sure what else to say, I was going to wait a bit before doing an actual review, and all I really have to say is that it's just great (even for an older model). Why did I go from the 16 to the 22 if I had no complaints about the 16? My eyesight is garbage and my posture while drawing is worse, and having the larger screen means I can work more efficiently without having to zoom in a bajillion times, and with it being as large as it is I tend to "shrimp" less while drawing. Less slouching = less back and neck aching!

I got to say I am impressed. I got this tablet because It was 120-170 dollars cheaper than the kamvas pro 20 depending on a used or new version of the later. I was concerned before the tablet came that maybe I should have forked the extra money over. However, I looked in depth at the specs of both. Everything is the same except for a few small things, like the pro having buttons, slightly less parallax, and lamination on the screen (not sure what that means). Otherwise beside those three things, the specs where the same. Same rps, same pen, same pen tilt, same size screen, same resolution, same pen pressure, same color spectrum, etc. Now, I don't use the button on tablets. I prefer to use the keyboard shortcuts or a wireless number pad. So That gets booted off the list of extras that might make the extra 120+ worth it for me. Next the parallax. That refers to the space between the pen tip on the screen and where the courser shows up on the screen. I was expecting a huge space. I mean right? If this tablet is that much cheaper the parallax must be a bit of a nuisance. My last pc screen tablet, the XP-Pen 22h, had awful parallax. I had gotten it after having a small Wacom Cintiq 13'in because I wanted a larger screen. The difference was was noticeable for me. Annoyingly so. So I was anxious for this tablet. I currently use an Ipad Pro for my portable art. Another reason I was nervous for this tablet The Ipad has next to no parallax and I was afraid that this would just be awful next to that. However, upon comparing them, while there is a small bit of parallax on the Kamvas 20, it's hardly noticeable unless you purposefully look for it. So while I would prefer none, this ain't bad at all! 100 times better than I was expecting. Lastly is screen lamination. The Kamvas 20's screen is matte. That's all I need. I am not sure what lamination means in this context, but as far as I know I don't miss it haha. So for me I suppose the main decider for me between the two tablets is the parallax really. While I would prefer to have as little as possible, and it sounds like the pro 20 must have less that the plain 20, I can't justify the price difference with that. Maybe if it was only a 25ish dollar difference, I would upgrade. But at this price, (I bough the Kamvas 20 at $400) I just simply can't justify the extra money. Especially since I then used that extra money to order a non-screen graphics tablet from Huion,one of their nicer ones too. This way if I am tired or want my had out of the way of the piece I am painting I can lean back and keep going at it. Had I gotten the Pro, I don't think I would have gotten the graphics tablet. At least not one as nice or effective. When it comes down to it, I think that this is the best graphics tablet for the price that I have seen, and I am very happy with it. :)

I'm a 3d artist and concept artist working in film and video games and I've been a Wacom user professionally for the past 13+ years. I've worked at companies like Industrial Light and Magic (Lucasfilm) and Electronic Arts. This is my experience trying to jump from Wacom to Huion. The first Kamvas 24 Pro 4k arrived with two dead pixels in the bottom left hand corner, luckily I was within my return window on Amazon and was able to exchange it. The second one seems to be good other than having a tiny black spec under the glass in the very bottom right of the screen, but I can live with it because it is really tucked into the corner. I spend over $2300 on a new Kamvas 24 Pro 4k, Kamvas 16 Pro 4k and Inspiroy H950P. Experience with Huion 24 Pro 4k below: Pros: -Great 4k screen quality and color reproduction (there is a slight color noise from the etched glass, but tolerable.) -The Huion software is a pleasure to use and they've really stepped up the usability of it. -The pen is great, very close to the Wacom pro pen now. -Drawing experience in Photoshop is very fluid and is on par with Wacom from my perspective -Small footprint, especially when compared to the Wacom Pro 24. -No fan is great -Nice having a USB-C option if your computer supports it Cons (this is where it gets ugly): -Should come with L-shaped cables tor relieve tension for when you use it as a second monitor -Quality Control issues, dead pixels, also ended up with a broken pen with my Kamvas 16 Pro 4k -Pens are not compatible between different device year releases (seems like potential for a huge amount of waste) -DRIVERS AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT NEED IMPROVEMENT: -Incredibly generic/robotic responses -First issue I had was the ALT+RMB brush resize in Photoshop had a lag/stall before the resizing action would catch up with the cursor, so all of a sudden the brush size would be massive, vice-versa. Thankfully after I sent a video they gave me the driver that they had already released for the Kamvas 16 Pro 4k which solved the problem. -Second ongoing issue is there is a stall/stutter when navigating using the ALT+RMB and ALT+MMB in 3D programs like Zbrush and Blender. I'm still able to work, but it's definitely distracting and messes with the flow. -Third ongoing issue is loss of pressure sensitivity and/or the ability to even draw or sculpt in Photoshop and Zbrush. This happens if I try to switch between programs or between the Kamvas 24 Pro 4k and the Inspiroy H950P. In other words, if I start using the Huion Kamvas 24 4k in Photoshop first, then I'll be unable to use the Inspiroy, vice-versa. The drawn line will shoot off in one direction in Photoshop. In Zbrush there will be a loss of pressure sensitivity for both the Kamvas 24 4k and the Inspiroy. I'll then have to close and reopen Photoshop or Zbrush for things to start working again, but I can't switch between tablet and kamvas or programs. I submitted tickets for all of the issues and provided very thorough videos showing the problems 25 days ago. I'm still dealing with customer service today and it has been an appalling experience. Days between responses I could deal with, but the fact that I'm having to repeat myself over and over is frustrating to say the least. Let alone they don't show up to scheduled Teamviewer sessions. They asked to do a TeamViewer session so they can control my computer remotely and check out what the problem is, which I agreed to. Frankly I didn't see the point because the video I provided clearly shows the issue is driver related. Never had these issues with my Wacom Intuos and Cintiq. After weeks of back and forth, they haven't shown up to the TeamViewer sessions twice now. They also were providing times like 8pm USA time and I had to explain to them on multiple occasions that we have 3 time zones in the US and I'm in PST (California time). I've lost count, but it took at least 5 back and forth messages over weeks before they got it. They even suggested a 2am USA time at one point which is ridiculous. Also, their messaging system doesn't update in the browser automatically, so you have to refresh the page constantly, otherwise you'll be sitting their not knowing if they've messaged you, which happened to me. They also asked for my TeamViewer credentials after the agreed upon time had come and gone, even though I had already provided them those details days before. Basically I'm dealing with someone named "Beverly" who I'm quite certain is more than one person because after I give them info in one message, they'll come back days later like the conversation is starting for the first time. Infuriating. They even tried to give me a $10 "compensation" for my troubles which is kind of insulting. It doesn't feel like I'm talking to a person on the other end, but more like a robot. Zero personal touch with this company. I'm assuming Huion is trying to attract professionals and studios now by creating $1300 high end hardware, but that won't work if they continue with the $300-500 product drivers and customer service mentality. I was really hoping that I was doing something wrong on my end, but I've been using Wacom products for over a decade, never had issues like this and I know a driver problem when I see one. Long story, long, I feel like an involuntary beta tester for basic issues that should have been solved before release. If I wasn't taking a couple months off work right now, I would have thrown in the towel already because I wouldn't have had the time or patience to deal with this stuff. I cannot recommend Huion products to studios or professionals under tight deadlines with the current state of their drivers and customer support. It's a real shame because the hardware is beautifully designed and a pleasure to use, when it works. If by some chance this all ends up being my fault because I missed something obvious I'll definitely update my review. Wow, that was long. 25 days worth of frustration venting:)
