This is a slightly older Huion model from 2019 but is still a decent drawing tablet.
If you get it, then it will work fine. But you should consider the newer Huion pen tablets at the same price point as the HS611.
This is is a MEDIUM sized tablet, with a diagonal length about 1.5" larger than a Wacom Intuos Pro medium
This tablet has a 16:10 aspect ratio.
The tablet uses he the slightly older PW500 pen. For more details about the pen, see My notes on the PW500 pen
The HS611 has a very simple design. No complaints, though it lacks the refined look and feel of the newer Huion tablets.
It is also available in several colors (Space Grey, Starr Blue, and Coral Red). I have the Space Grey version.
There is one cool aspect of its design. Unlike the vast majority of tablets, this one has regions with a slighted speckled pattern. This adds a bit of visual distinction.
The drawing surface is only very slightly textured. If you are used to a modern drawing tablets, you might find this texture slightly "slippery".
In comparison:
The texture feels much smoother than the Wacom Intuos Pro (PTH-x60 series).
A little more texture than the surface of an iPad.
It has 10 programmable buttons on the left. 10 more than most other tablets.
The 10 buttons are in 2 groups of 5.
Each group of five s some raised symbols on the buttons to help you identify the buttons by touch alone and without looking.
Touch controls - At the top there are some additional touch-sensitive keys.
One is a slider that can be configured to adjust zoom, brush size, or vertical scrolling
The rest control media-related features
Both the buttons and the touch-sensitive controls can be turned off in the dricer.
This tablet does NOT support touch
Wireless - This tablet does NOT support a wireless connect
Wired connection - there is a single USB-C port
OK. Exhibits a moderate amount of displacement of the pointer when the pen is tilted at 45 degrees. Because it is a pen tablet this amount of displacement will not be very noticable unless you are specifically looking for it.
Pressure handling seemed smooth when transitioning between low to high pressure
Tilt worked as expected
I didn't notice anything unusual at all.
Very good. Even when drawing at very low amount of pressure with a very large brush (1000px) in Krita, pressure didn't exhibit and wild swings or wobble.
It exhibits some diagonal wobble. The wobble is most noticable at slower speeds. In practice when I draw i did not notice this much. Adding a little bit of brush smoothing controlled it.
