I spent a few years with a Huion screen tablet (GT-19 series), but pressure sensitivity response was really bad compared to a Cintiq. However we are comparing a 400€ product to one that is about 3K€; second-hand it can trade for under 1K, and then it is a reasonable alternative.
With a Huion 1060+ the pressure response felt amazing; however that was on Windows, I never got it to work under Linux. For a hobbyist it is a really much better choice than the cheap Wacom (e.g. Bamboo line), because it is important to have a big drawing area, so that you can draw from your elbow and not from your wrist.
- m4rtink 5y agoAFAIK Wacom drivers on Linux are good & upstream. The various Chinese tablets are much more involved to get running on Linux, if possible at all. Also, being fully open source I don't think the Linux Wacom drivers do any of the shady stuff the Windows ones apparently do.
- woolion 5y agoI only use Linux and indeed, drivers work OOtB and don't require you to sign any privacy policy. Although you don't have the fancy GUI that they have on Windows. The Huion GT works OOtB with the Wacom drivers. For the 1060+, I tried all the out-of-tree drivers without any luck, but that was about 3 years ago. https://digimend.github.io/drivers/digimend/tablets/ https://digimend.github.io/drivers/digimend/tablets/ (support was added in 2018, so now it probably works after minimal work)
