Huion 1060 Plus: Tablet with Decent Sensitivity, Seamless Pen, and Programmable Keys

Huion 1060

The Huion 1060 Plus is fully compatible with all modern operating systems (Windows, macOS, and Linux), but it connects to a PC only with a USB cable (does not support Bluetooth or Wi-Fi). The pen has 2 mechanical programmable knobs, lightweight of the whole structure, and sturdy tip.

Setup

Each Huion 1060 Plus driver can be downloaded from the official website or from the 8GB microSD card that comes with the unit. The setup panel allows adjusting the pen pressure sensitivity and program the right and left keys. You can adjust 12 keys and 16 soft keys due to advanced settings. Additionally, there is a mode for left-handers. It is also possible to choose the purpose of the stylus’ buttons, adjust the sensitivity of the pen, and even test the result in the appropriate window. The Working area section of the Huion new 1060 plus makes it easy to finely set the ratio of the current monitor to the tablet resolution. It provides the aspect ratio calibration and rotation by 90, 180, or 270 degrees.

Features

The high resolution and interface speed allow you to create your artwork as accurately and smoothly as possible. The pressure level makes it easy to control line thickness, transparency, and color. The Huion 1060 Plus graphic tablet has a convenient touchscreen mode that allows you to replace the trackpad, but this feature is popular with beginners. The stylus connector is proprietary and the complete charger has to be taken care of because a new one is quite expensive. A full charge cycle lasts about an hour, and the working time is about 800 hours. Pay attention that the digital pen of the Huion new 1060plus graphic tablet can be used not only as a drawing tool but also as a wireless mouse for PC. It is not recommended to store the pen in a downward position as the charge is consumed when the tip touches the surface. The signal processing speed is high and the lines at high hatching speed do not even freeze. Also, the handle can work at a slight tilt, but the full-fledged functionality of working by degrees is not available.

Design

The Huion 1060 Plus tablet is a black semi-professional unit (1.7 pounds) with a large active area (10 x 6.25 inches), which is less than the dimensions of an A4 sheet (14.2 x 9.4 x 0.4 inches), but there is still a lot of space for drawing. The working area of the Huion new 1060plus has a pleasant-to-touch coating, where nothing interferes with the free movement of the brush during drawing and image editing. As was mentioned before, there are 12 programmable keys on the side and 16 touch keys on the top. These keys are needed to configure the most frequently used actions, so you can work without touching the keyboard. There are 4 rather large rubber mats, which do not slide on the table. The bottom cover screws are located around the perimeter. The Huion 1060 Plus graphic drawing tablet has the micro USB connectors for hooking up to a PC (the supplied cable is provided) and microSD with an 8GB card that helps you store sketches or assets directly on your tablet, not in the cloud.

Conclusion

The whole Huion 1060 Plus review demonstrates that the tablet doesn’t have any issue relating to drawing performance. Its buttons are adjusted manually and have a comfortable location. The Huion 1060plus working area is large enough and pre-downloaded drivers make it easy to perform all the installation-specific settings.
