I never got to thank you properly but thanks a bunch for all of your reviews, no channel has more detailed reviews. And even if people don't like long reviews, you provide a text reviews for each video, so thank you and YOU ARE AMAZING! Keep doing what you're doing!!
The good thing about being left handed is you don’t need to let go of the mouse to draw (assuming you use a mouse with your right hand), get a mouse with 12 macros on the side.
Really clever idea. I never use programmable keys because I just know where the shortcuts are on the keyboard. Very simple, but easy solution for laptops. I hope thet make a full lefty version soon!
I really like this concept from an ergonomic perspective, I find trying to fit keyboards and peripherals within a comfortable distance to each other tricky, having a keypad with just enough keys to cover the basics for image editing makes a lot of sense, as well as the minimal bezels. I often use a mouse in my left hand so that would work well here.
Thanks. I actually planned on reviewing this much later BUT found out Huion had the presale ending Feb 19. Just wanted to get this video out earlier so that people can know exactly how the tablet performs.
Seems good but for me I think the surface area is too small. My drawing hand would be constantly pressing on the tablet's bottom edge. I hope they release a larger size.
This is a pretty cool drawing tablet. I fully understand the lefty issue, so hopefully they'll release just the keypad on its own. I may get this soon just because.
So glad you reviewed this! My friend shared it on Facebook not too long ago! I have a Huion Kamvas Pro but the screen ratio is different to my laptop screen and also have Wacom Draw and one thing I really would like a set of quick keys and this is quite nice even from an aesthetic point! Part of me is curious to get my hands on one of these 🤔
I’m a righty with very limited use of my left hand so would need a left handed version. Disappointed that once again an otherwise excellent company forgets about people w/ other abilities (being a lefty) and disabilities. Would be really cool if they would make a one handed complete keyboard- there are precious few options out there for one handed typers.
As an amateur, I think this is the best value for a screenless drawing tablet. You have very valid criticism (especially the android orientation). But me, I'm a right handed windows user and i do plan on using my android to draw and paint with, but it's not the main goal. And the extra controls with the knob offer unmatched workflow for the price range. And maybe they will be able to fix the android orientation with software updates eventually.
SOLUTION FOR CMD + OPTION KEY: There is this free software for macOS called Karabiner Elements for customising keys on external keyboards (among other things) without impacting the keys on your main keyboard. I recently tried it for changing keys on an external numeric pad and it works great! Just choose the desired external keyboard from the drop down menu under Karabiner-Elements Preferences > Simple Modifications > Target Device (instead of choosing "For all devices").
I work with XP-pen deco 3 , it comes with dial, and 6 customizable keys. And I can work without keyboard.I love it!. Bit this takes the concept the a whole new level.
I love the idea of having these keys alongside the tablet with the use of the dial! Pretty unfortunate for left handed users, I do think this modification would work even better if it were detachable with some sort of connection ability on both sides 🙂
Good review, thankyou. But i dont like the way the button (to change dial modes) is too far away from the dial. It should be closer or in centre of teh dial Also for unit this sizeHuion should have put THREE DIALS on it
I don't know how people felt about that but I only realized that "left out" could be understood like that after you said that it coul be a pun. I love it!
I never use the buttons on the side of my tablet. The keyboard just does it all for me without configuring. BUT if this ever came for lefties it would be an instant buy as it looks very ergonomic
I was actually researching abouts those gaming "half-keyboards" to make a setup just like this. Maybe if it proves to be a real useful tablet design and people make enough fuss they'll make a left handed version!
After seeing this feedback, Huion will make something for Left-handed people. Maybe a full set with detachable right and left sides. Huion is a company that actually listens to feedback and makes changes, no matter how small. I like that, and have seen that myself when I bought one of their tablets.
Great review, interesting product. Thank you, Teoh! [Wish you hadn't said that bit about not needing to upgrade. ;-)] You can use Karabiner on the Mac to switch those keys.
Neat, I like the rotary wheel. Shame android support is meh. I'm in the process to remap a 18+4 wireless number pad to use with a Bosto 16HD I'm planning on buying.
Great Review! It's a pity that they not thought about the right order in Mac CMD and ALT keys, and/or make them an included spare Windows interchangeable set (And modifiable in software too). Maybe the next version.
In System Preference | Keyboard | Modifier Key… button Monterey), you can select the KD200 keyboard and change the CMD & OPT keys out. Suddenly, I have no complaints about this drawing tablet!
When I first saw the thumbnail I thought this was an accessory for iPad/tablet users, with the drawing space being a rubberised mat for resting the tablet whilst you worked.
Joe spina I love this and in would be using this with my huion Kamvas 22 plus. Maybe I could win this. You're review of the kamvas 22 plus is what inspired me to buy it
What they should've done is made a separate tablet and keypad. They could've had a slot on either side of the tablet to connect either a left or right handed keypad. Probably wouldn't be that difficult, apart from the connector on the PCB would have to be very thin, so the form factor would be difficult.
very cool concept, but I still prefer using a Nostromo keyboard or anything similar like Orbweaver ( due to the scroll wheel) to work with any pen tablet or even touch screens like cintiq.
i ordered KD200 because of this review, as they keyboard makes it perfect for me and i wanted a regular pen tablet with tilt since i am used to it from the ipad. the smooth tilt shown in this video convinced me. unfortunately i can't get the tilt to behave smoothly in clip studio paint or krita. the cursor tries to point itself either vertically or horizontally, and jitters wildly between the two as i move the pen at different angles. i've tried both the current driver and one from november last year. i wonder if anyone else has had this issue :(
Just give me the keyboard part... PS: yes, I know there are already tons of half keyboard and macro-keyboard out there, but all of them are overpriced (and some, especially one for gaming, is too big (in size)). EDIT: never mind, last time I checked is more than a year ago... turned out now there are plenty of cheap half keyboard out there...
make a review on LENOVO IdeaPad Yoga Duet 3 - from 30 to 44t.r Or LENOVO Tablet Yoga Duet 7 about 90t.r and more. From the pros: bluetooth keyboard included and backlit, stylus included, built-in stand (very convenient format)
I think people have no imagination and didn't search for bluetooth keyboards. I use a cheap one when drawing, but people who comment that they would love to see a keyboard without the tablet etc, they just didn't search for it, it's cheaply available, some of them are specially for gamers.... :)
Very nice review. Was wondering if the surface texture has any chances of wearing the nibs very fast. Had seen this mentioned as a problem in some other manufacturers. Thank you in advance 🙏🏽
@@teohyc thank you ☺️, also in my case I'm planning to only use it only for photography retouching, so probably usage will be a lot lesser than a full time graphic artist.
Îmi place mai mult dinamica unui mouse, când apeși pe buton sa deseneze... Nu ma pot obișnui cu dinamica creionului latent ( când îl miști pe deasupra câmpului de desenat fără să atingi se mișcă cursorul)
Can you program the dial to do rotate canvas, that's crucial for me? Thnx P.S. if you used the cable, you might get the proper mapping with the Android device.
Assigning rotation to the dial will require keyboard shortcuts. So your drawing software must have keyboard shortcuts for rotation, otherwise rotation cannot be assigned to the dial.
Just the keyboard bit would be ideal (and yes, I'm a left-ey!) ...any chance of you doing a review on the Clip Studio Tabmate handheld controller? ...it's ambidextrous, so maybe that might calm down my fellow southpaws :)
Hello. Thanks for your nice and detailed reviews. I would like to ask your personal opinion: which one you will pick between kd200 and hs611. I like both, the keyboard in one but the active area in the other. Thanks again
Huion has hired the right designers. This one is very tempting
Yeah, I want one so badly!
Also, for a second I thought your comment was a pun, considering how this tablet is not very lefty friendly.
This is actually a genius product by Huion!
I always use my keyboard most of the time instead of my tablet's buttons, but now, just wow.
Not really a genius product if its not left hand compatible
@@TropicalCyc Just literally flip it in the manufacturing part and done.
@@GabrielTobing we know that they wont do that, right?
They never made a left handed version of the HS611, so why would they make one for this one?
These mini keyboard/keypad have been here since forever

"Because many *left handed* people feel *left* out
lmao no pun intended 😆

@@drakanatea3997 Oh wait yeah thats really good :D
I never use my right hand for shortcuts, and I don't mind using shortcuts with my pen in my hand
Cool idea,a detachable and switchable keypad would help with the lefty and righty issue
Really clever idea. I never use programmable keys because I just know where the shortcuts are on the keyboard. Very simple, but easy solution for laptops. I hope thet make a full lefty version soon!
Yeah, something like a switch (even if it had a wire conecting both sides)
Or maybe lefties could learn to do it the "right" way...

To use at home: Nah, I think I prefer a traditional setup.
To carry around: Holy, this is cool af

Okay never thought of that having a keyboard attached on the tablet. That's actually neat.

The tablet is a good concept, but if they make the keyboard detachable would be a great idea. Like, you could put it on the left or right side anytime
Never have i wanted something so much and not know it until it has been presented to me.
I was looking forward to this review. Thanks for making a video on that tablet. Also poor left handed people, they deserve justice.

Also for unit this sizeHuion should have put THREE DIALS on it
I wish the keyboard was also let us to customise its functions. Detachable keyboard with full customisation would be a dream.
I don't know how people felt about that but I only realized that "left out" could be understood like that after you said that it coul be a pun. I love it!
didnt know that was your post, i recently shared it too 🤣
This is what I need because my current tablet doesn't have buttons, I have to use my keyboard which is huge
Loved your review. I think I will pick one up this week. Thank you.
I never use the buttons on the side of my tablet. The keyboard just does it all for me without configuring. BUT if this ever came for lefties it would be an instant buy as it looks very ergonomic
I've been looking for this x3
Oooh I'm so excited for this!!!!
Love this tablet. Been using it for a while.
Wish that would make a pen display with the same keyboard.
Interesting idea, although I will not be buying it I like this new design. Let's see if other companies will follow suit
Seems good for travel. Like drawing on the train. I already have a Wacom tablet but I might get this
They should have really made this a push-to-click dial to switch between the modes.
I was actually researching abouts those gaming "half-keyboards" to make a setup just like this. Maybe if it proves to be a real useful tablet design and people make enough fuss they'll make a left handed version!
I actually saw an ad for this and was curious about it, but yeah, left handed so.
NEED THIS FOR LEFT HAND!!!
doing the gods work here! thanks for the review!
This is super cool I've never tried any products from Huion.
I was thinking about a product like this!!! Stole my idea xD haha Perfect for FPS games
it's already exist, search for: "one handed keyboard"
TQVM!! Great review!
You are so smart Teoh!!! It is so cool!
It's a really handy device, keeps the your desk more minimilized, too bad it's only for right handed people

Great review, interesting product. Thank you, Teoh! [Wish you hadn't said that bit about not needing to upgrade. ;-)]
You can use Karabiner on the Mac to switch those keys.
The issue is whether that app can specifically target the CMD & Opt keys on the keypad vs the keyboard.
Neat, I like the rotary wheel. Shame android support is meh.
I'm in the process to remap a 18+4 wireless number pad to use with a Bosto 16HD I'm planning on buying.
I don’t understand why Huion doesn’t include multitouch
As a keyboard shortcut user, i find this pretty amazing to use with tablet. Ohh goshh
Great Review! It's a pity that they not thought about the right order in Mac CMD and ALT keys, and/or make them an included spare Windows interchangeable set (And modifiable in software too). Maybe the next version.
In System Preference | Keyboard | Modifier Key… button Monterey), you can select the KD200 keyboard and change the CMD & OPT keys out.
Suddenly, I have no complaints about this drawing tablet!
Thank you so much for this review ❤️

What i was thinking off soo useful
Joe spina
I love this and in would be using this with my huion Kamvas 22 plus.
Maybe I could win this.
You're review of the kamvas 22 plus is what inspired me to buy it
a backlit may come handy especially working at night.
CTRL B does paste in back in Illustrator.
laughed with the pun "feeling left out" it is true.
i am a left handed
What they should've done is made a separate tablet and keypad. They could've had a slot on either side of the tablet to connect either a left or right handed keypad. Probably wouldn't be that difficult, apart from the connector on the PCB would have to be very thin, so the form factor would be difficult.
They copied the aesthetic of the Logitech mx keys even down to the software 😂. Not complaining tho, it will make my setup look seamless. Def buying
*logitech craft
very cool concept, but I still prefer using a Nostromo keyboard or anything similar like Orbweaver ( due to the scroll wheel) to work with any pen tablet or even touch screens like cintiq.
This is an awesome idea though! Defs would make it less clunky than my current Bluetooth keyboard set up
You can keypmap the cmd and opt keys under keyboard preferences
great for a 3d setup
Would be very easy for huion to configure for left handed people, just include additional upside letters on all the keys and have a flip key.
As always best and amazing video... Do a review paint storm drawing app.
i ordered KD200 because of this review, as they keyboard makes it perfect for me and i wanted a regular pen tablet with tilt since i am used to it from the ipad. the smooth tilt shown in this video convinced me. unfortunately i can't get the tilt to behave smoothly in clip studio paint or krita. the cursor tries to point itself either vertically or horizontally, and jitters wildly between the two as i move the pen at different angles. i've tried both the current driver and one from november last year. i wonder if anyone else has had this issue :(
Wow very good video I love your video so much ❤️👍
I saw this on facebook yesterday then suddenly this video popped up to my recommendations lmao
Interesting design
can u export bangladesh?
definitely buying xD
Just give me the keyboard part...

EDIT: never mind, last time I checked is more than a year ago... turned out now there are plenty of cheap half keyboard out there...
they sell the keydial mini, it's just the keypad with a wheel.
need this one with display!
If it is just the keyboard without the tablet i'd buy it now
maybe I would like better if the left side (keyboard) change to 3D manipulation controller with programable button.
like tablet + 3D mouse.

finally another review
make a review on LENOVO IdeaPad Yoga Duet 3 - from 30 to 44t.r Or LENOVO Tablet Yoga Duet 7 about 90t.r and more. From the pros: bluetooth keyboard included and backlit, stylus included, built-in stand (very convenient format)
Huion still doesn't have an official Linux driver which is a great pity.
Show me how useful for architect students beginners
Maybe it's just me but i can see this working with a display tablet with no0shortcut keys. Perhaps combining it with the Huon Kamvas 22 plus?
now they have launched a key pad for this tablet for left handed people, i really don´t know if is for an aditional cost.
yea, I still don't know why they made it fixed to one side😬
How is compare with Samsung s6 lite pin ?
are you going to review the lenovo tab p11 pro?? Nice vid btw!
I think people have no imagination and didn't search for bluetooth keyboards. I use a cheap one when drawing, but people who comment that they would love to see a keyboard without the tablet etc, they just didn't search for it, it's cheaply available, some of them are specially for gamers.... :)
great product! btw is there any drawing tablet with full keyboard yet?
Very nice review. Was wondering if the surface texture has any chances of wearing the nibs very fast. Had seen this mentioned as a problem in some other manufacturers. Thank you in advance 🙏🏽
Even if it's going to wear off fast, it should be a non issue as replacement nibs are cheap. And 8-10 free nibs are included in the box.
@@teohyc thank you ☺️, also in my case I'm planning to only use it only for photography retouching, so probably usage will be a lot lesser than a full time graphic artist.
if it canbe lightup the pad like atablet itwould be more comfortable
Îmi place mai mult dinamica unui mouse, când apeși pe buton sa deseneze...
Nu ma pot obișnui cu dinamica creionului latent ( când îl miști pe deasupra câmpului de desenat fără să atingi se mișcă cursorul)
what if I want to use another half of the keyboard?
fucking finally ive been waiting for a review
just if they made 2 version of it
. A left handed model and right handed model
I have a problem because I am left-handed 😔
who ever said they would love it without the tablet part, this is already an option and gamers use it
first thing I noticed was that it's not for lefties :( that's too bad, it looks like a nice tool

I personally prefer using a proper keyboard so I don't need a shortcut keys on a tablet.
I'm wondering if this keyboard is better then individual "1 handed gaming keyboards" for drawing or that they would be about the same.
As a left handed person, if this was detachable to put it on both sides it would be alright, but as always, no one thinks of lefties.😔
How do left handers use keyboard shortcuts on the left side? Ctrl + S, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V? Hold the pen and hit the shortcuts?
@@teohyc as with playing games, I do everything in reverse: Use the pinkie to hit the keys, big finger to hit Ctrl.
