Artist friends, let me just tell you a thing. FUCK Wacom. Fuck Wacom and their planned obsolescence, fuck Wacom and their broken drivers, fuck Wacom and their over-priced tablets. For years weāve dealt with them with no alternatives but let me tell you a thing.
I recently found out my Intuos 4ā²s Pen had broken and rather than spend Ā£60-89 for a new one I decided to get a new tablet. Now, I could get the new āIntuosā (which is just the re-branded Bamboo) and i was going to until I found this beast.
This is the HuionĀ H610, it has almost twice the drawing space of the low-end Intuos and double the pressure levels. The one and only negative is that the pen requires a battery.
Not only that, it is larger than my Intuos 4 which I paid Ā£150 for back in the day. Know how much this cost? Ā£55. The same as the basic Intuos.
I am in LOVE with this thing. Letās compare this with the lowest of the low end Wacom Intuos line.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Intuos Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Huion
Active Area:Ā Ā Ā 6 by 3.7 in Ā Ā Ā 10" x 6.25"
Pressure Levels:Ā 1024 Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2048
Hard Input Res:Ā 2540 LPI Ā Ā Ā 4000 LPI
Express Keys: Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 4 Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 8
Not to mention the Intuos is HIDEOUS with buttons that are in incredibly awkward places.
The fact that a Ā£55 matches and exceeds the Ā£150 Intuos 4 I bought years ago speaks worlds. And do you know what the very final nail in the coffin is?
THE DRIVERS. ACTUALLY. WORK.
Itās time Wacom had some real competition in the market, if youāre looking for a new tablet please consider a Huion over a Wacom. I used to be a Wacom fanboy too but now?
Here is the H610 on Amazon UK and Amazon US.
All I can find is good reviews on this thing and people doing the same thing I am doing, trying to convince people itās worth it. Soā¦ You have the information, use it as you will.
