Product description
The HUION Inspiroy H1060P is a well-balanced graphics tablet aimed at beginners and intermediate digital artists who want a large working area and pro‑level pen performance without paying premium‑brand prices. Its 10 x 6.25‑inch active area, 8192 levels of pressure sensitivity, and fully customizable shortcut keys make it a strong choice for illustration, photo editing, note‑taking, and online teaching.
Drawing Performance and Pen Feel
The standout feature of the H1060P is its battery‑free stylus, which uses electromagnetic resonance, so you never have to charge it or replace batteries. With 8192 levels of pressure sensitivity, the pen responds smoothly to light and heavy strokes, giving you fine control over line weight and opacity—ideal for sketching, inking comics, and detailed shading. The tablet also supports high report rates and good resolution, so strokes feel fluid and lag is minimal in mainstream programs like Photoshop, Krita, Clip Studio Paint, or Illustrator.
The pen typically offers tilt support (up to ±60° in compatible software), so your digital brush reacts more like a traditional pencil or marker when you angle the stylus. This is especially helpful for creating calligraphy, natural shading, or broad painterly strokes. The surface of the tablet has a lightly textured finish that adds a bit of resistance, making it feel closer to drawing on paper rather than on slippery glass.
Workspace and Productivity Features
With a 10 x 6.25‑inch active area, the H1060P gives you enough room for expressive arm movement without dominating your desk. It’s a sweet spot for artists who want more space than a small tablet provides, while still being portable enough to slip into a backpack with a laptop.
On the left side of the tablet, you get 12 physical express keys plus 16 additional soft keys (often accessed via the driver), all of which can be customized. You can map them to your favorite shortcuts—Undo, Brush size up/down, Switch tool, Rotate canvas, etc.—turning the tablet into a productivity deck. Once you configure these for your main drawing app, you spend a lot less time reaching for the keyboard.
Compatibility and Use Cases
The H1060P is designed to work across multiple operating systems, which is great if you switch between devices:
-
Windows and macOS: Full driver support for most major creative applications.
-
Android (via OTG): Connect to compatible Android phones or tablets to draw or take notes on the go. This is useful for students or artists who want a mobile workstation without carrying a full laptop.
-
Online Teaching & Whiteboarding: It works very well with Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, and whiteboard apps, letting teachers and professionals annotate slides, write equations, or sign documents naturally.
Because it’s a screenless tablet, you draw on the tablet surface while looking at your monitor. This can take a couple of days to get used to if you’re new to tablets, but many artists find it very precise once they adjust—and it keeps the cost significantly lower than display tablets.
Build Quality and Ergonomics
The H1060P is slim and lightweight, making it easy to move around your workspace or transport between home, office, or classroom. The plastic build is sturdy enough for daily use, and the corners are rounded for comfort when resting your wrist. Anti‑slip pads on the underside help the tablet stay put on smooth desks.
The stylus usually comes with a pen holder and extra nibs, so you’re set for long‑term use. Because the pen is battery‑free, the weight is nicely balanced—neither too top‑heavy nor too light—reducing fatigue during long drawing sessions.
