0.28 -> The Huion HS64 is a mini drawing tablet that works with computers like you would expect,

5.97 -> but you can also use on Android phones and tablets.

10.309 -> Android devices only.

12.009 -> This doesn’t work on iPhones or iPads.

16.049 -> Compatible with every program I tested except for Moho animation software, so it’ll work

22.83 -> in most standard or free drawing programs.

26.09 -> I’m going to go through the box, explain how to set the HS64 up along with troubleshooting,

32.08 -> and do a review.

33.23 -> What’s in the box?

34.96 -> The tablet with 6.5 x 4 inches of active drawing area, 4 shortcut buttons, and nonslip pads

41.989 -> on the back.

43.07 -> Wireless pen with 2 shortcut buttons.

45.699 -> Two packs of extra pen tips and a tip remover.

49.409 -> Five foot long tablet cable.

52.089 -> Adaptors for the cable.

53.51 -> Manual.

54.57 -> To use the tablet on your Android device, first make sure you are running Android 6.0

59.23 -> or higher.

60.23 -> It won’t work below that.

61.539 -> Your device’s settings, system settings, or about page shows your version.

67.97 -> Next, plug the cord into the tablet.

70.659 -> Pick the adaptor end that fits your device, plug that to the other end of the cable.

75.94 -> Then plug the cable into your device.

78.77 -> In this case the tablet works without having to do anything else.

82.009 -> Just plug it in and play.

83.96 -> On some devices, you will need to go to settings and enable OTG for the tablet to work.

91.52 -> When you plug the tablet into an Android device, the tablet switches to “phone mode” where

96.409 -> you can only draw on the left side.

98.759 -> If your tablet does not switch automatically, press and hold the top left button for three

104.369 -> seconds to turn on “phone mode.”

108.35 -> Important note: you cannot use the tablet’s shortcut buttons or the pen’s shortcut buttons

114.45 -> when plugged into an Android device.

116.83 -> Those only work on computers.

118.74 -> Also, you can’t rotate your phone or tablet to draw in landscape mode.

126.909 -> Pressure sensitivity does work.

128.989 -> The HS64 also works with computers.

131.84 -> For computer use you need to install a driver.

134.76 -> First, uninstall any other tablet drivers.

138.4 -> If you uninstall something, restart your computer.

141.55 -> Go to huion.com/download.

144.48 -> Type in HS64.

146.41 -> Download the driver for Windows or Mac, depending on what you use.

149.9 -> Right click, extract.

151.59 -> Double click the installer.

153.7 -> Install.

154.7 -> Plug your tablet in.

155.7 -> Your tablet settings show up in two places: on the desktop and in the icon tray.

161.569 -> Open the settings and click the Administrator privileges button first.

166.09 -> Click yes/okay to the popup and wait a couple seconds for the panel to activate.

170.65 -> Ok, now you can change settings.

173.06 -> Set your shortcut buttons at the top.

178.549 -> In the second tab, set the pen’s shortcut buttons.

182.06 -> Use the righthand slider to change how sensitive the pen pressure is.

186.019 -> On the bottom of this window, if you have problems in any program, try disabling or

191.72 -> enabling Windows Ink.

193.78 -> Huion tablets will not work the way you expect in internet browsers like Chrome unless you

198.36 -> disable Windows Ink.

199.621 -> Normally when you hover a pen over the tablet, the cursor appears at the same place on your

200.87 -> computer.

201.87 -> Turning on Mouse Mode makes it so that your tablet always picks up where you left the

205.62 -> cursor no matter where on the tablet you hover.

209.73 -> Game Mode turns off pressure sensitivity but increases how fast data flows from the tablet

214.99 -> to the computer.

216.939 -> Game Mode is good for playing games like OSU.

219.69 -> In the third tab you can customize what area the tablet uses to represent your screen.

224.569 -> And the last tab lets you export and import your settings, which you may do if you have

229.97 -> different settings for different programs.

231.97 -> You may also reset to default here.

236.579 -> What do I think of this tablet?

238.54 -> Well, I’m amazed something so small works so well.

243.209 -> Unlike drawing tablets that have screens, with a screenless tablet you can have a size

247.34 -> this tiny and still feel comfortable.

249.7 -> And for $35, that’s a steal.

251.15 -> It’s so cheap!

252.61 -> I mean, if I had a few more dollars I would pick something a tad bigger with more shortcut

257.91 -> buttons - but this is great, and the fact you can use it with a phone is pretty cool.

261.89 -> I tried drawing with my finger on my phone and it was impossible compared to drawing

266.16 -> with the tablet.

267.16 -> I don’t have a stylus for my phone, so I couldn’t compare that.

271.34 -> I guess if you were ONLY planning on drawing on a phone and not a computer, a phone stylus

276.34 -> would be the right way to go… assuming your phone is compatible with one and it’s a

281.5 -> pressure sensitive stylus.

282.71 -> The fact you can’t rotate the phone to draw in landscape mode was a bit of a let down,

287.12 -> but I didn’t have any trouble working in the upright phone position.

290.93 -> You really do need a phone stand for this, though.

293.9 -> I’m very lucky my phone didn’t fall off the slippery book tower.

301.18 -> Often the onscreen keyboard wouldn’t come up with a tablet click, and I’d have to

304.78 -> press with my finger to get the keyboard to appear.

307.9 -> As for phone battery drain, it’ll vary depending on your phone and drawing app.

312.83 -> For me, using the tablet in Flipaclip cost 8% of battery charge per hour.

318.61 -> The HS64 tablet pen’s pressure sensitivity is fantastic, but you’ll notice on a phone

324.06 -> its ability is limited by the drawing app you use.

327.539 -> On a computer you’ll easily see nice, controlled strokes, but phone drawing is much less fine

333.16 -> tuned.

334.89 -> On the computer side, I have no criticisms.

337.59 -> Everything about drawing felt smooth and natural.

340.26 -> The small drawing area meant I didn’t have as much control as I would with a bigger tablet.

345.55 -> That’s it, really.

347.25 -> For somebody who wants to try out digital art without spending $70, the HS64 is a good

353.93 -> choice.

355.06 -> For more drawing tablet reviews, look below or go to scribblekibble.com, click episodes,

361.699 -> and then the product reviews button.

363.3 -> Hope this helps!
