Huion Kamvas Pro 24 4K (GT2401) notes

Summary

I've been very satisfied with this tablet.

Basics

• User manual https://www.huion.com/manaul_pdf/de/Kamvas%20Pro%2024(4K).pdf

Cost

This Huion tablet not cheap at about $1300. But sometimes it is on sale at $1000.

Compared to Wacom

• This is Huion's highest end pen display in 2023.

  • In 2025, Huion's has a newer, better high end models: The Kamvas Pro 19 and Kamvas Pro 27.

• Its competitor is the Wacom Cintiq Pro 27. Let me be clear, the Cintiq Pro 27 is a better tablet. But this tablet delivers a LOT for value for it's price. This Huion tablet delivers 90% of what you need for drawing compared to the Cintiq Pro 27's which costs $3500.

Pointer tracking accuracy

Good. Like all pen displays slightly inaccurate in the edges and corner by a couple of millimeters. More accurate in edges/corners than the Huion Kamvas 22 Plus.

Pointer lag

Normal for a pen display. Slightly more than the Cintiq Pro 27.

Stand

does not come with a stand.

Legs

Has bult-in legs that give it a nice drawing angle.

VESA support

YES. The tablet is VESA mountable.

Anti-glare sparkle

Moderate (maybe on the low end). Noticeable if you put your eyes close. At a normal drawing distance my eyes don't pick it up or at least it looks minimal.

Auxiliary inputs

It has no buttons, dials, etc. So, I use a TourBox device. More here: tourbox

Texture

The etched glass provides a nice texture for the pen so that it doesn't feel slippery.

Heat

Display stays cool to the touch - maybe sometimes slightly warm. No hot spots.

Scenario

I bought this tablet for digital art, and it works fine for that. I have used it as a secondary display at it works fine for that purpose also. But most of the time I only use it when I want to draw.

Diagonal wobble

Rating: GOOD (LOW AMOUNT OF WOBBLE)

Wobble is minor and only noticeable in very slow strokes.

Connections and cabling

Ports

• Power

• USB-C

• DisplayPort

• HDMI

• 2x USB-A ports on right side

• Headphone jack on right side

How I connect it

There are two cables running from the tablet.

• display signal and data - I connect it via a single USB-C Thunderbolt 3 cable to one my Surface Pro 8's 2 USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports.

• power - I connect it using Huion's power adapter to the wall.

Connection quirks

When connected to my Surface pro 8 via USB-C, when the Surface Pro sleeps, every 20 seconds the Kamvas shows a no signal and power saving message and the Surface Pro keeps playing The "USB device connected" & "USB device disconnected" sounds, this pattern reoccurs every 20 seconds ad infinitum.

To stop it, I simply disconnect the USB-C cable from the Surface Pro.

I'm not sure what the issue is but I suspect its some interaction with the sleep mode of the Surface Pro.

I did not see this in the other devices I tried, so I am not sure how prevalent it is.

Once the Surface Pro is awake, everything works normally.
