Customers are dissatisfied with the color of the graphic tablet. They say that the colors are weirdly washed out, and require a minor amount of color adjusting. The calibration was also way off out of the box, with everything having a purple cast. The blacks do not look too dark, and whites end up a little grey. However, the screen has some kind of rainbow effect, making it difficult to see what's behind it. Customers also mention that there is absolutely no way to adjust the clarity of the screen on the device itself, and the back of it causes rainbow like distortions to appear.

Good Quality at This Price Point
After viewing many “unsponsored” YouTube videos recommending this product, I finally caved and purchased this tablet during a sale period. While it’s certainly no Cintiq, the price point makes the Huion KAMVAS GT-191 a steal of a deal. I had some suspicions in mind, as I’ve heard that some older Huion tablets fail within the first month or two, likely due to poor quality control or improper use by the user. However, after a month of daily use, I was pleasantly surprised to see that this updated kamvas model appears to run much more smoothly than its predecessors.PROS:The build quality is very sharp and appealing to look at.There is minimal IPS backlight bleed, even less than my cheapish desktop IPS monitor.Colors are accurate as far as I can tell, compared to my other calibrated monitors, although this only applies to the hue. I would recommend running a color calibration tool, as the colors are not quite right out of the box (greys appeared reddish for me).The battery life on the pen is fantastic. I’ve been using this tablet 2-3 hours a day for a month and not had to recharge either of the pens yet (though I have been using both). It’s not as convenient as a passive pen, but this system works out surprisingly well.Comes with 2 pens, so you can use the backup while the other pen charges. Charging only takes about 20 minutes or so. Haven’t tested this too much.Has three input types, VGA, HDMI, and a dual-link DVI-D port.I saw some complaints about the glossiness of the tablet without the protector, and it really isn’t that bad while it’s on. Just don’t put a desk lamp directly over it.Despite a month’s worth of use, there is no visible degradation on the nibs.Other than some issues with installation, the drivers are working as intended.After some (not so) extensive testing in ms paint, I don’t think there is much noticeable jitter at all.CONS:The pens must be calibrated daily, as I’ve discovered. (This only takes 30 seconds.)EDIT: This is relatively negligible if you're fine with some parallax.No tilt support, so if you hold the pen at a different angle than the one at calibration, the cursor may suddenly be offset.The colors are washed out. I would not recommend doing coloring exclusively on this tablet, so be prepared to use a second monitor to check on the colors occasionally.High response time, causing some ghosting. It isn’t too terrible, but noticeable when panning the screen.Installing the drivers initially was a pain. See notes on my workaround.The screen protector the tablet comes with is something you really should just throw away immediately. While it does give the tablet a more matte feel, it is near impossible to apply without getting air bubbles or scratches on the protector itself. Even if it goes on perfectly, the screen will look slightly blurred. If you take care of the tablet, you won’t get scratches on it. Plus, the screen will look far sharper. Buy third party if unsure.It’s nigh impossible to route the cords under the tablet at any angle less than 45 degrees using the default mount. If you want to draw at a lower angle, you’ll have to buy another mount.The far corners and edges of the tablet has a slight calibration offset, but I find it to be workable. This effect only applies to the outer 2 cm or so of the screen, so unless you do a lot of drawing on the very edges, it should be fine.NEUTRAL/PREFERENCENot a fan of the charging cord for the pens, they are USB-A to (a very thin) coaxial that plugs into the top of the pen. It works, but I’d prefer a proper micro-usb connector.The screen surface feels like a whiteboard, but this means that your hands are more likely to stick instead of gliding across the screen. This product does comes with a glove, and I actually prefer the smooth surface as opposed to a more papery texture.Pressure sensitivity feels a little off. This can be changed in the driver settings, but I have yet to make my handwriting a consistent thickness. It feels more like “light pressure with variation” then immediately goes to “thick pressure with variation.” Takes a little bit to get used to.The settings menu is nothing amazing, just basic monitor settings that you’d find on more generic computer monitors.The Huion program must be running in the system tray for the tablet to detect input. It is not a system service, so the program itself must be running on startup.There will always be a slight parallax effect, but it’s something you just get used to, like any other screen tablet on the market.Having a large screen size is a huge benefit to me (drawing from arms and shoulders, as opposed to only my wrist on my small intuos), but this does mean that the tablet will take up more desk space.The tablet gets a little warm upon long hours of use, but it is not noticeable while wearing the glove. I don’t have any concerns with this product overheating. I still do shut off the monitor when not in use, however.Pens are much more sensitive than the cheaper line of Wacom Intuos pens. To an extent. It doesn’t quite have the same feel, almost “softer” than my previous Intuos tablet.OTHER NOTESThe package I received did not come with extra nibs. I don’t think this will be an issue, as the nibs I have now have yet to degrade.Upon first time use, the pen will stick to the screen after each stroke. This will go away after a week or so.The default USB/Display cords are about 4 feet long, so if you want the tablet to be farther away, you’ll need new cords. Just be sure to get cords that have a small header; you’ll have to bend them 90 degrees under the tablet.When calibrating the pen, look at the tablet straight on each calibration point, holding the pen at the usual angle of drawing to avoid a larger offset to the cursor.The cursor would sometimes freeze in place when I installed the drivers, but the computer would still respond to clicking. Make sure you fully uninstall any previous drivers before installing the new ones. This may be tricky; the older driver software actually does not do a full uninstall, you have to remove driver components manually from the “programs and features,” and restart when appropriate. After a few hours of tinkering, the latest drivers have been working perfectly for the last month.The screen does not have to be on to send input to the PC.CONCLUSION: The Huion KAMVAS GT-191 is a great value for any artist, however I can’t say much about the opinions of professionals. It works well for me as somebody who likes to draw recreationally. Even though I picked this up for $380 (flash sale), I still think this piece of hardware is more than worth it at full price. I don’t feel like I’m getting ripped off by a “imitation Cintiq,” but instead receiving a decent quality product at a fair price. It’s probably not the best tablet on the market, but this purchase exceeded my expectations, hence the 5 stars.EDIT March 2020 (1.25 Years Later)I've been drawing on this tablet 3-4 hours a day and as far as I can tell, this piece of hardware is still going strong as when I first bought it. No visible degradation of the nibs, no scratches on the unprotected screen. The drivers now work well, though there is the occasional hiccup when working with Windows Ink enabled. The overall battery life of the pens have decreased, however. I generally have to charge once per week.I'm aware there is a newer model that is more akin to a proper Cintiq, but this tablet still gets the job done. Would highly recommend if this goes for an even lower price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Revisiting the Huion GT-191
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2018
This review reflects years of use, speculation, and finally, testing of a variety of products that led me to this purchase decision.

The Decision:
After hearing about the Wacom Cintiq in 2013, and testing various models of drawing tablets and screens, I knew that one thing meant the most to me: Does it work?
Does the device support what do with my style of art?
Does the device make sense for me to purchase?
In other words, will my experience with the Intous Pro that I have used for so long transfer flawlessly to this new type of device?
Does it fit my budget? Does me using this equipment for my everyday work justify the cost of the device, or do what I have already (Intous Pro in this case) adequate to do my work as a digital painter?

The Crit of the Intous Pro 16 vs Huion GT-191:
I was pleasantly surprised to see alternatives to the much critically acclaimed Wacom Cintiq years down the line in the middle of my research. But I was "comfortable" with what I had, which led me to buying Cintiq Pro 15.6" (or whatever size it is), to which I was very underwhelmed when I saw the low contrast, and oddly enough, the same feel as using the Intous Pro. I guess I was really expecting that grain texture of the surface of the screen, But those things didn't dampen my taste in the device, it was the price. Even for a refurbished model I could not justify the cost for an experience I've had once before for a whooping $1303.45. I returned it.
(There was also a defect in the device that left one of the leds to shine brighter than the rest of the screen)

It wasn't long, but for a concentrated period of time I overhauled on my research into getting not just Huion but Ugee, XP-Pen, and many others and weighed out the benefits of each device.
What was most important to me?
What will I do if this purchase doesn't pan out?
What were other people saying?

Those questions put me over the threshold.

I made the purchase once a saw a repeat review for the same device the Huion GT-221 which I also considered purchasing. With the bad taste left in my mouth by a Wacom fanboy, I decided on this device because it had been out the longest. and therefore much more feedback and support.

Whats the verdict?
Contrast. Even with adjustments in Nvidia Display Adapter, got the colors looking good, but can't quite get those high and low darks you would expect from a normal monitor.
Calibration. A pain at first, but once you determine hand placement for each point you calibrate your pen to where hand lays naturally when you draw, you should be golden.
The Build. Freaking Awesome, no complaints. I'm a 360 lb man drawing on this surface and it does not budge.

HOWEVER:
(Fixed)
The software is EXTREMELY finicky, often times overwriting my pen pressure settings which forces me to unfortunately reinstall the Huion software. After having the device for less than a week and having to do this twice is making it quite tempting to go back to my Intous Pro. JUST SAYING!
I will be contacting Huion over this and I will update this review.

UPDATE 7/3/18:
Three days ago I tried using Adobe Illustrator, and to my horror the pressure sensitivity doesn't work. I've been hearing that there is a temporary fix using an Wacom driver, but I've yet to find out which one, and if its true or not. I've been trying to make contact with Huion, but to no avail. Getting in contact with them is almost like playing a game of cat and mouse unfortunately, but I will give them the benefit of the doubt, I have been contacting them in the wee hours of the night. Unfortunately, this product is moving from 4/5 to 3/5 stars because of it's lack of support over this specific issue that other users are also having. This is an investment, and a company that sells these kinds of products, even as a cheap alternative, need to understand that the user base is paying attention when they don't respond to these kinds of issues with their investment.

UPDATE 7/4/18:
I received a response this morning from Huion, but I was again disappointed by their lack of support for their own product. I was told to run in "administrator mode" and "turn windows ink" off in the pen settings, assign "switch brush" to one of my pen buttons, and update to a new driver, which I already had, which they would've known if they were paying attention to my messages.

UPDATE 7/5/18:
They just got back to me this morning with an updated driver that wasn't available on their website, and that seemed to do the trick. 4/5 stars again.

Conclusion:
(Updated 7/17/18)
My overall user experience/customer service experience with this device has been nothing short of amazing. Aside from a few small hiccups with the driver not working properly with Adobe Illustrator CC, and it being bit of a chore to calibrate the screen with the new driver, I cannot recommend this device more for the artist that wants to break into the drawing monitor scene. I will be giving this a 5/5, because in the end, Huion did reach out to me EVERYTIME I had a problem, and were proactive to solving my issues correctly. My one comment would be for the new 14.5.0 driver to come up with some sort of guide as to get the best results possible without having to reverse engineer the calibration process (see attached link).

After a long time with this machine, I am underwhelmed by the whole drawing tablet experience. I've since now switched to my Intous Pro that I got back in 2013, and I am glad to say I am much happier with the free desk space.

It wasn't a bad experience. It was something that left to be desired with all the re-calibrating until I got that settings that felt just right. Overall it didn't feel natural to me in a confined space like I had, and the screen size and resolution also left something to be desired. My workflow changed, it worked, and then some personal stuff happened to me throughout the year and it felt the setting up to paint became a drudgery instead of an experience I was hoping to get out of this device. It's good for it's purpose, but honestly painting for me was never about the tool, but whatever I could create out of my surroundings.

I still support Huion because Wacom is just too damn expensive for an experience that concentrated more about the technology than what you could get out of it. In other words, the experience a pen tablet could be to someone with different tastes and needs could lead to an epiphany of creative juices to the same man or woman can get out of an pencil an paper.

I really wanted this to work out. But on a side note, I tried the Apple Pencil and Ipad Pro and that to me felt like a better experience.
