The 610Pro does not feature pen tilt or rotation recognition. You can adjust pen sensitivity until you find a comfortable place the default around the middle is good. It does not create a “blob” as easily (unless your Huion driver is acting buggy). When drawing with the Huion pen, the pressure curve is slightly harder than it is in Wacom. The pen’s buttons let you right click, left click, or double right or left click, as with a mouse. The pen rest is not a pen holder per se, just something to balance the pen on. The company says the rechargeable pen lasts 800 hours after every 2-hour charge, though some say it lasts for far less time. The stylus is lighter and thus easier to handle than previous version. If you are getting scratches it may depend how you are holding the pen, some people “sharpen” nibs as they draw. It also of course depends how much pressure you apply. The surface of this tablet is hard plastic, less prone to scratching than Wacom Intuos, partly because the pen nibs are rounded. It feels not quite as slippery as glass, more like thick, smooth paper. It is hard plastic, not rubbery like the Wacom Bamboo. The surface has a grip to it that eases drawing. The surface is mappable you can decide how much of the tablet you want the pen to work on. This tablet now has a left-handed driver, so you can choose to draw in left-handed mode. Also included are two USB cables, one for the tablet and one for the pen, as well as a pen, pen charger, pen rest, and paper user manual. Their site,, has all the up-to-date driver. It comes with 4 replacement nibs and one inside the pen, for a total of 5. It’s lightweight and easy enough to carry.

The battery-free, rechargeable pen has 2,048 levels of pressure sensitivity. It works with Mac, PC, and Linux/Ubuntu. You can use wireless mice and keyboards with this tablet.

The H610 has 8 Express Keys down the its side, and 16 hot cells on the tablet screen. For more on tablet types, please see this post. It is not a screen that you draw on–if you want that, please consider a tablet PC or tablet monitor such as Cintiq or Yiynova. It’s a graphics tablet that connects to a computer via USB. (note: if you’re looking for the OSU model, the H420, scroll to the bottom of this article). This newer version is much improved with tilt sensitivity and a pen that doesn’t need charging.
