Not 2K, but a nice comfortable size and tracks acurately
I went back and forth between buying a small tablet with a finer resolution and a large tablet with more 'room' for app panels etc.Went for this in the end. 'only' 1080p, so you will notice some visible pixels to begin with (especially if you are used to working on 2k/4k computer monitors), but honestly after a while you don't really notice and the trade off is you do have a more comfortable workspace with plenty of room for your brush and color panels etc inside your app of choice.Screen is bonded for more accurate pen tracking than the equivalently priced XPen display tablets (for instance) honestly it's hardly noticeable, it's so spot on to the tip of the pen.The screen also has a semi matt finish for a (slightly) less slippery, more papery feel.I still find the sensation of hard plastic pen nip againsts glass unnatural however, so i bought a set of Huion replacement felt nips for the pen which makes it so much better (in my opinion).The bundled power/display cables give plently of connection options, but I do wish it could either be powered and povide display through a single Thunderbolt connection with a single USBc lead or at least be able to use a standard USBc cable each for power and display, rather than the messy and awkward 'hydra' cable that comes with USBc at one end and all 3 of USBc/5mm Power/HDMI on the other.But... All said still a round great budget display tablet.

Amazing tablet!
So glad I bought this over the Wacom, when I first got it I thought it wasn’t working properly then I remembered you have to download the drivers from Huion - and within minutes it was working perfectly using Corel Painter. It comes with the USB C and drawing glove etc so everything you need is included. There is zero noticeable parallax it just works like a dream. I wish I didn’t struggle with the iPad for so long, this is so much nicer to draw on and a perfect size. I am confident my skills will improve now.

PLEASE READ FOR EVERYONE AND BLACK SCREEN SUFFERERS
The media could not be loaded. Pictured above I have the HDMI cable from the all in one cable plugged into the back of my pc and the regular USB power cable plugged into a USB port in the back also. I have not plugged in the red power cable because the USB cable can take enough power from my pc to give to the tablet to use on its own so it will work. These cables are connected to the other longer cable on the othee end of the coupler which is connected to my Huinon tablet as above.I've also included a breakdown of the pen in a video above too. On my drawing software (Krita) one of the pen buttons can toggle the brush/rubber on and off and the other brings up an advanced colour palette. The results in some other software may vary.Disclaimer:I am not an expert with this product but I do know the following:*You need a PC or laptop to use this tablet mainly but you can connect it to other devices like a phone and it can work that way as a second screen, working on something that has already been saved to the cloud for e.g and can be accessed from your phone to work on with the tablet it is connected to. (Using a USB-C cable I presume)You also need to install the newest version of the software that works with the tablet to maintain it and allow it to be used with your digital drawing software. (If you don't know which one is the most recent one, you can check the update details for the version on the Huinon website after searching for whatever tablet version you have and what software you need, (and it will tell you what it's added or fixed since the last patch and you should be able to identify it from there) or download the manual if you've lost the set up instructions, or the Huinon official software for the tablet to use it properly and calibrate the pen or pressure level sensitivity in the pen).- Or you can just do what I did the first time and install all the versions and let your computer tell you that you've got the old version and it needs to be uninstalled before you install the newest one. You also must not have any other existing drawing tablet software (the software program for configuring the tablet settings, not the software you use for drawing).When using a PC or laptop if the tablet screen isn't duplicating like it should, make sure you set the screen settings to "Extend" or "Duplicate". (This can be done by pressing the Windows key + P for project settings which is how you can set up a double monitor with a connected device on a Windows PC) If the methods below aren't working for you then it's probably the result of a broken wire during transit or somehow the leads have been inserted to the incorrect ports or simply aren't inserted in enough (like they are hanging out and aren't properly connected into the port).When it works the tablet is great and the nibs bearly wear down, so you won't catch yourself paying the ludicrous £15 for more replacement nibs for that new fancy wacom tablet you're eyeing after using the pen for 0.5 seconds. This was the main reason I went for this tablet from a brand I'd never heard of becauseA) it had a good size, buttons were handy and other users had said the pen/nib quality was great + I lack the hand-eye coordination for a screenless tablet for digital art andB) I believe a german reviewer compared their pen from a decade's worth of use with older version of the more modern wacom tablets and it was still usable, but the new pen nibs she got with the overpriced new tablet lasted all of two hours. Ridiculous.There is one big issue with the Kamvas 13 tablet which is the fact that it has a black screen - no connection issue when trying to set it up for the first time. (Right out of the box)- Black screen issue -The instructions aren't clear when it comes to setting it up at all. I nearly threw mine out when I got the black screen issue that this tablet is infamous for apprently.(You plug in the cables whichever way from the tablet to your device and you turn the screen on with the button and the power button on the tablet stays red after a second of the huinon logo showing up on screen and then it says no connection and goes into power saving mode and the tablet stays off.)After a day of being depressed because the highlight of my week was ruined and i thought the tablet was broken or I was missing leads or something to make it work - and a frustrating amount of research and YouTube review videos watched later, I discovered the two awkward ways the tablet should be set up. - and I've written them here for any poor souls that encounter the same issue.Methods of setting it up (2 ways):- All in one cable set up -What it is:This cable as a short red USB power cable, a short HDMI cable and the longer USB-C cable that goes into the tablet at the top port on the right. (doesn't matter if it's in with the lead pointing up or down the ways)How:You can connect the all in one cable on its own from the tablet to your device (bendy bit with the curvey end goes into the top right side port of the tablet and the middle wire goes to the hdmi port) without connecting the red power usb lead to one of your device's usb ports if your laptop or PC has enough power output to power the tablet when it's turned on. (Taken from the other leads going from the tablet into the pc or laptop)Otherwise if it's still not functioning it needs more power to work. You'll need to connect the extended version of the power lead (longer red power lead that comes with the tablet) to the smaller lead on the all in one cable and connect the longer part of the whole (now extended with the short lead + longer version of the lead) cable into a usb compatible plug and plug it into any normal outlet or socket.- All in one USB-C set up -What it is:This is actually the most painless way of setting up the tablet (but of course you're only told this AFTER you look at any YouTube review of the tablet or at the bottom of the set up instructions, telling you the cable can be bought seperately along with the USB plug. (you might need if your laptop or PC can't power the tablet in its own even with the short power lead connected via a USB port on the side of your device) It works first try for the reviewer setting up the tablet that way) as it literally just involves you buying the double ended USB-C to USB-C cable from the Huinon store (available on it's Amazon version which is accessible from the store link at the top of this product page near the tablet product description) for a brisk £20 ~ £25 (on the Huinon Amazon store) or £35 on the Huinon website store, but it only delivers to the US so be careful if you're in the UK and want to order it that way. You are recommended to only order the Huinon double ended USB-C cable so that it will be guaranteed to work wih the tablet instead of the wire being faulty or incompatible with the tablet.How:Literally just plug the USB-C double ended cable from the bottom port on the right side of the tablet straight into a USB-C compatible port on your laptop or PC. I'm pretty sure this lead is also used to connect/link the tablet to be used on more obscure devices like a phone etc. With the drawing you have been working on already saved to be opened on your drawing software and worked on with the tablet. However, it depends on your interface prefence and what device you use your drawing software on mainly.I use Krita on an Alienware Aurora R7 PC, so setting it up was fine once I found out how to and discovered where the HDMI ports were on the back of the PC block even though I spent a day looking for them and were convinced they didn't exist.- when they were really just disguised by the fact that they were right above the vents and weren't labelled at all with nothing as much as a symbol or anything like the trident looking ones you see above any standard USB port.Thank you for reading and I hope you get your tablet working. If you still need help with the black screen issue the Huinon support page for the Kamvas 13 is here:https://huion.uk/pages/supportThe troubleshooting video I watched for the methods I described to tackle the issue is here:https://youtu.be/fbOLXnnJH4M& The most useful reviewer video I watched is here using the USB-C cable method straight out of the box:https://youtu.be/Aho48V75gmoHappy drawing!

My experience
Got this about 2 months ago, my experience so far has been flawless. It's plastic but it doesn't feel cheap, the pen's a bit lighter than my liking bit that's because i used a wacom cintiq 13HD before (seen in the picture as a comparison).The screen is fully colour customisable, very accurate and vibrant colours btw.I haven't had a single problem with it, downloading the driver and setting it up was 10 minutes at most.The stand is fully adjustable and is a piece of cake to handle.Overall worth the price, I would go as far as saying the quality is very similar to wacom's.Littl I warning tho, this tablet is HUGE. I didn't expect it to be so big but its a beast.

Very good value
This is my first display drawing tablet so I can't say if it's better or not than other brands/models. It is nicely built, the screen is pleasant to draw on it, has a slight friction on it. It is big enough to simulate that you're drawing on an A3 landscape paper with space on the sides for the tools of your drawing software (this model doesn't have hard buttons on the sides). The stand feels nice and solid but it does not allow rotating the screen to portrait mode, that would require a much beefier and heavy stand. The stylus is good but the buttons on it could be more precise. Overall I'm very pleased, it is really good value for money.
