HUION Kamvas 13 Graphics Drawing Monitor 13.3 Inch Full-laminated Screen, 8 Programmable Press Keys, Supports Connectivity with Android Device, Without Stand - for Remote Office & E-learning

I had been considering the Wacom Intuos Pro non display tablet to help with working from home. However after seeing this Huion Kamvas 13 with pretty much all the features of the Intuos pro, but bigger, and with a built in screen for nearly £100 less I decided to give it a go.I am really pleased I did because it has exceeded all my expectations. It is so much more useful and easier to draw on a display tablet like this compared to a non-display tablet, and it can even function like a conventional non display tablet too for controlling other screens at the press or a button.The drawing suface has a much more natural texture/feel compared to other pen tablets that I have used, including wacom tablets. This Huion really feels like writing on paper and it is extremely accurate.Pen is very comfortable and the whole tablet has solid build quality.The display is good quality with nice colour balance. I find it extremely useful as a compact portable 2nd monitor. My unit does have a small amount of backlight bleed in the 2 top corners, but it is really only noticeable on black screens, and it doesnt bother me when it is actually displaying something.Having the option for the usb-c connector is also really handy for keeping cable clutter down, although I wish the usb c cable had an angled connector (like the 3 in 1 cable does).If you make sure you buy it from "Huion fullfilled by Amazon" then it has a good warranty. I did have an issue when I first receieved the tablet with a faulty cable however the Huion customer service quickly resolved the problem and sent a replacement cable. They were good to deal with and friendly.Drivers are solid and easy to use and work well so far.Overall I am extremely pleased with it, it has been fantastic for marking up pdf files, taking notes and sketching diagrams on onenote, and works well in painting packages like Krita.

Some people say there's not much difference between a drawing tablet and a display tablet. I think they're wrong!I own a Wacom CTL-672 that won't track properly and destroys the pen nibs within days. I also own a XP-PEN Deco 01 V2 which is okay, but looking at the screen instead of where you're drawing takes a bit of getting used to and it always felt like I was spending longer to get the results I wanted.When you upgrade to a display tablet, you realise that those cheaper drawing tablets were somewhat holding you back. Being able to see your strokes directly under where you're applying the pen nib makes drawing easier. It's not the same as drawing on paper, but it's very close. The cursor on your computer is almost exactly where the nib touches on the screen and since you're looking directly at it while applying pressure, it feels more authentic.There was no stand included with this tablet, which was disappointing but I ended up buying the Huion stand made for their Kamvas 16, which is solid. You really do need a stand because tilting your head down will eventually make your neck and back ache. Buy a stand at the same time you buy the tablet rather than later!Actually looking at the tablet screen and drawing on it, I have no issues so far. The screen isn't as bright as you'd expect but it's by no means too dim to work on. I think the built in screen protector might be affecting the amount of brightness. Speaking of the screen protector, it makes the surface feel a bit like paper. There's resistance, but not too much, which feels nice. The screen colours seem decent and I don't feel like any part of the spectrum is unbalanced.The stylus pen is quite chunky and has a rubberised cover where your finger tips sit. There are 2 buttons in this area which work well as middle click and right click, though you can customise these in the driver software. The buttons themselves seem a little less solid than the buttons on the XP-PEN stylus, but they work fine. The stylus feels good to use for several hours without any fatigue. Using the included glove prevents sweat and oils making their way onto the stylus and tablet screen. Whenever you're not using the stylus, it can be placed in one of two ways in the stylus holder. The stylus holder also contains spare nibs.There's 2 ways to connect this tablet. The first way is the same way many tablets connect, with a 3 way cable that has 1 connection to the tablet with 1 USB data cable, 1 USB power cable, and 1 HDMI video cable back to the computer. The second way is with a USB-C cable, which not only needs to have a long enough connector to fit into the tablet (Huion's own vastly overpriced cable seems to be the only one that fits without any issues) but your computer also has to be capable of delivering a compatible signal over that USB-C cable. Some modern mobile devices are capable of delivering a signal, though I don't own any of those and couldn't test that feature.All in all, very pleased with this tablet and impressed at how cheap it is for what you get.
