It finally got here after a gay delay but it's time for a quick review! Huion is basically a cheap Chinese knock-off of the intous 5 without the touch ring, radial menus, and touch feature—but it's fucking awesome for the price. Here are the notable differences I noticed compared to the intous at first glance:

-buttons are better than first generation intous 5 soft buttons (which I hated) but are still shitty
-I'm not a fan of the feel of the drawing surface
-there is a ruler up at the top for no apparent reason
-the rest of the tablet's finish looks cheap as expected from the Chinese
-the pen holder does not have a hole in it like the intuos and rests on its side

The pen holder is also a piece of crap and when I opened it they only supplied you with 4 extra nibs with the other 4 holes—where nibs are supposed to be like what wacom provides—are missing. Installing was a little confusing but I got it the 2nd attempt. If you are a forgettable person then the pen that comes with this will be your worst enemy; you turn it on/off by pushing the eraser end and no the eraser end is not actually an eraser like the intuos pen. T-they were nice of you to give you a free AAA battery, though! The cable is detachable and the buttons (not like you would want to use the side buttons) are reprogrammable but they were gay enough to have little icons engraved in the buttons for the defaults, making it undesirable to use anyway. I got the nostromo to fix this problem.

But none of the extra 'features' matter because all I care about is the pressure sensitivity, which Wacom's bamboo line of products can't beat. Bamboo create, at a retail price of $174.95 at this time, has 1024 levels while Huion H610 has 2048. It's a good beginners tablet and trumps bamboo (and the newer intuos) but it's not as sexy as anything wacom makes. By the way...intous is the new bamboo and "intuos" is now called intuos 5 pro without the bullshit.
