Our Verdict

Huion’s recent upgrade to its 22-inch pen display has made it more sturdier and capable ‘under the bonnet/hood’ and for the price it should not be considered a mere compromise in terms of performance. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

For

  • Fantastic screen
  • Good size
  • Reasonably priced

Against

  • Not touch screen
  • Only one kind of nib
  • Too many wires

Kamvas is the name given by Huion to its pen display range - different from a graphics tablet in that it displays the image you’re drawing on, like a Wacom Cintiq. Huion makes what might be described as budget tablets for beginners, or professionals, who might not be able to afford more high-end industry favourites, like Wacom, or an iPad Pro. This doesn't mean that Huion should be considered a compromise, as they have made some very respectable graphics tablets so far and are doing well to keep up with, or even stay abreast of, current trends and technological advances in the manufacture of pen displays, too.
