Does it work with a single USB-C cable?

Yes, on computers and Android devices whose USB-C port supports display output and power delivery. Otherwise you connect with the included 3-in-1 cable.

Do I need to install drivers?

Yes. Install Huion's driver to map the press keys and adjust pressure curves; it runs on Windows 7 or later and macOS 10.12 or later.

Is the screen good enough for color work?

The IPS panel covers 120% sRGB, which suits illustration and web work. It is not a wide-gamut Adobe RGB display for print-critical proofing.

Can I use it with a phone or tablet?

It works with Android devices that support display over USB-C. Check that your device supports video output before relying on it.

Does it support touch?

No. The Kamvas 16 has no multi-touch, so navigation is by pen and the programmable keys.

What comes in the box?

The pen display, a battery-free pen, pen holder with spare nibs, the connection cable and a stand or glove depending on the bundle.

Our take on the Huion Kamvas 16 Pen Display

The Kamvas 16 is a 15.6-inch drawing display with a full HD IPS panel, 8192 levels of pressure and tilt support through Huion's PenTech 3.0 stylus. It adds 10 programmable press keys and a USB-C connection, and its 120% sRGB gamut and anti-glare finish suit illustration, photo work and design. Against rivals it is a mid-range pen display: cheaper-feeling plastic build, 220 cd/m2 brightness and no multi-touch, but the drawing surface, shortcut keys and color coverage are the features that matter most. It suits hobbyists and freelancers moving up from a plain tablet, and buyers rate it highly.
