I passed over the keydial when it first released but it was widely requested that I check out this hybrid between a drawing tablet an a keyboard. This isn't a full review but mainly my first impressions after using it.

This would have been a wild review if you were left-handed!
this would have been a left review if you were wild-handed!!
I was wandering if they had a left hand version the moment I saw it
@@laurinha2310 Why are there so few left handed people in the world..
It's frustrating
@@dawnpaoloabes6513 our kind is suffering… when will it stop? (Sad violin song in the background)
@@laurinha2310 The numpad is our friend tho, and auto-hotkeys
I'm ambidextrous so with a day of practice I could get the hang of having to draw on my right. But I'm more comfortable holding a pen in my left. A great idea and if I were a righty this looks awesome. But this automatically cuts off all hard core lefties and ambi lefts like me who would prefer not to have to get used to it.
But for those this works for, I wish your art well! 👍
Well... maybe I could twist it around where the keypad is at 6 o'clock and just rotate my drawings when finished. This would have to be in an apocalypse with no other choices hehe. I already write with my paper twisted practically upside down (it amazes people who actually take the time to notice) so I could make it work. Im not the more common leftie who twists their entire hand around like Obama does. But again, apocalypse circumstances. 😂
My thoughts exactly as a lefty. My first thought seeing the thumbnail was “cool idea! Bummer I won’t be able to use it…”
First thing i thought, thats so easy so to do left or right hand. Just put dial on center and butons simetricaly dristributed. Since they are customizable no matter how do you take will work perfectly!
I'm ambidextrous when I use form or spoon, not mouse control.
@@ItsMisterBluray Hm. Never thought about mice. But I use that almost exclusively right. Many things I just learned it right because that's all that was there (or set up for). If you gave me lefty scissors it wouldn't suddenly make the clouds part and the angels sing. I would ask what's up with the weird scissors could I get some regular ones please, lol, or fumble till I got the hang of it. If I tried a lefty guitar I'd be weak.. and I had to give up learning ASL because I kept switching dominant sides which was confusing me. Lol
I bought this last week and I love it!! Glad to see you reviewed this too :D your channel was actually the first I went to to see if there was a review of the product!
Every left handed man is ruined lol
When I saw it I was like what about left handed people
@@kudasibanda4553 well in China almost all left handed people were trained to use chopsticks and later write with their right hand, my dad included. (chinese eat on a rounded table as a family so if you eat with your left hand you will constantly fight with the person next to you), so as a Chinese company it's kind of understandable that they aren't considerate enough for lefties. Hope they get the feedback and find a solution for you guys.
And women too! (Jk, I get they weren't serious, neither am I)
@@faizahmohammedaruwa lol yeah me too.
That’s what I thought. It’s funny they don’t make a detachable version that can be connected on both sides given a lot of creatives are left handed lol
*_absolutely in tears for being left-handed_*
Also, Huion's been cleaning up their drivers, it seems. The UI is surprisingly modern (kinda like Logitech Options which I adore). Major props for them!
SAME! 😭😭
I'm a left handed. I'm not mad, just sad that I can't get in 'hand' with this cool products😭😩.
They never think of lefties. A ambidextrous magnetic panel would have been possible.

@@yolandacui2571 thanks for the insight. Didn't know that.
@@yolandacui2571 bruh no one asked.
@@REMY.C. They do think of us (my Kamvas 13 is set to "upside-down" control so I have the buttons on the right), but I guess this is a financial choice to support the 90% rather than the 100%. People have suggested making the keyboard module separate and having plug attachments on either side, but it would be much more weak and far more likely to fail.
An absolute beauty is this keyboard/tablet!!
i want one
… but not practical.
@@rewanji looks pretty practical to me..? Even with all the programmable shortcut controls on my wacoms I've always favoured reaching for the keyboard instead, this solves that.
@@rewanji you're not serious
Waiting for the new Xp-pen Pro 16 review. Especially on the pen cuz they say they improved the IAF and it seems like it
Yup. So far the XP-Pen diehards have uploaded reviews, but I'm waiting for something more impartial
Theres an eraser
Brad I just want to say that you put so much effort in making videos for us and thank you so much for that
I’m so sad, I bought the XP Pen Deco 03 and the Huion KD 100 about 2 months ago specifically for the fact that I could have a wireless tablet/macro pad combo! This is like the perfect version of that lol and costs about the same as having the 2 separate parts.
That little wheel being set to my canvas rotation sounds amazing right now
Oh dang I didn't even think of that
Hi Brad, would you ever be tempted to do a video on your go to brushes for each of your digital art software? I am sure I am not the only one who would like to know what brushes you use to sketch and ink on ps.
Keep up the great work.
I wish he would too. We have been waiting for a while.
Great first impressions Brad. I wonder if they'd be willing to do this with a display tablet... Either way it's a great idea!
Thanks for taking the time to show it to us!
P.s. the driver section on the video is in there twice, right after each other.
Im using Huion tablet. AND LOVING it. I now cannot work without my Huion. Will definitely try this one too.
I love the idea of just dropping this thing over you laptop keyboard while still retaining a good bit of keyboard muscle memory. 👍
Currently waiting for Brad's glove dance full length video
agreed
I absolutely love this tablet!!!! Got mine yesterday it’s amazing. I only use like 5 keyboard commands on the right so it was perfect programming them. Scroll wheel amazing and I don’t have to learn what buttons I put the commands on. Love it
Thank you for reviewing this Brad. I really like tablets that come with shortcut keys. The more shortcut keys the better. I’d even prefer to have more than one dial, so it’s a little disappointing that every tablet I’ve seen only comes with one dial. It should have at least 3 dials in my opinion, one to zoom in & out, one to rotate the canvas view, and one to change the brush size. Still, I think it’s nice that this tablet gives more shortcut keys than most others. Now I only hope Huion decides to make a tablet like this with a screen :)
Huion has one that has 2 dials
I just recently bought the Inspiroy Q620, which looks exactly like this one, but without the keyboard thing. I actually was really surprised wth the build quality and how the tablet is really accurate :)
What if you are left handed?
I’ve been hoping to see a review of this one!
Whoa whoa whoa..... I've been waiting for something like this! It snuck up on me I guess since you put this video out more than half a year ago!
I'm kiiiiinda sad its not fully programmable. In fact, I pledge to purchase a newer version if it is programmable, and especially mechanical
Hey Brad, there's a repeated clip at around the 4:00 mark.
dejavu
A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.
Good evening. Tonight on 'It's the Mind', we examine the phenomenon of deja vu. That strange feeling we sometimes get that we've lived through something before, that what is happening now has already happened. Tonight on 'It's the Mind' we examine the phenomenon of deja vu, that strange feeling we sometimes get that we've ... (looking puzzled for a moment) Anyway, tonight on 'It's the Mind' we examine the phenomenon of deja vu, that strange...
@@jmalmsten I love that sketch. The increasingly more puzzled face Michael Palin manages to pull cracks me up every time. Thank you for remind me of it!
If this had had the G, I would say it would have been perfect for 3D. Between having to set 4 buttons (in regular tablets) to be the Q, W, E and R, plus the modifiers (ctrl, shift, alt and space), I am already out of programmable keys.
I have never been able to make the scrolling wheel work in Maya, but I think that's on me
Is it possible to type the whole abc letters, when needed, with the ''keyboard'' left part of the KD200?
i was thinking about this type of device for so many years.
Im a fan.. you're one of the channels I listen to without speeding up playback...but please find away to fix the focus
I saw this to day and I am quite sure I need it :) *ordered*
hey Brad, since you have so many huion devices, would it be possible to use a regular tablet and a screen tablet at the same time? This is the set up i have with wacom, so i have one tablet mapped to a monitor and the pen display only for itself, i wonder if its possible to do the same with huion and their driver supports it. You have a repeating part in your video when u talk about the keys not being customizable btw.
hopefully they could improve this on a modular type of product that you can place the table either left or right of the keyboard.... so that left handed people like me can use it
Great overview. One thing you might want to check - it appears that the driver section is in twice.
Hi, when drawing something, and if you want to place the pen in an exact point, how do you manage to do it if the tablette is totally black and does not contain the drawing?
Hey, I found your channel recently an subscribed almost instantly. I'm beginning to get into 3d modeling an 3d art etc been looking for something that's wireless or Bluetooth for a cheap price I've thought about getting a surface pro or something aswell. Do you think this will handle blender 3d modeling or sculpt? Any suggestions or recommendations?
Could this combine with an on-screen swype keyboard to use a full keyboard on a tablet/pc?
say, if we use xp-pen, and huion stuff at the same time, does they conflict with each other? (I mean the driver)
Hello Brad.
Thank you for this amazing overview of this tablet. i have purchased and got it yesterday evening.
I wanna ask about the pen nib:
ow long does it last? -i mean according to ur experience, how much does a nib last-?
Thank you
Hey Brad, What can you say about the HUION INSPIROY RTS 300 ?? Need your input. Thanks.
Waiting for MiPad5 / 5Pro review with Stylus.
Please make sure to test the drawing tablets like huion with that- specially how much of drawing tablet area is mapped to the MiPad tablet screen.
Interesting, I actually use a one handed razer gaming keyboard with a bunch of shortcuts programmed into it with my drawing tablet so I'm surprised to see someone actually combined the two.
Definitely intrigued.
Can you set a "k" key as a hyper (Ctrl+alt+shift+win/cmd) key?
Hello brad, I really like your review. Also just want to ask, would you like to review miipad 5 pro if it's good for artist
Something I noticed is that "shoe string" effect is not actuly a problem with the tablet because the same thing happens on paper and it is actually your pen that is touching the tablet on it's way back from the top of the stroke. Just wanted to put that out there.
My current tablet is a huion Insproy h640p (FYI)
What do you think of the Mi Pad 5 Pro? And how is it compared to the Samsung S6 Lite? I'm looking for a budget tablet and really hope you can make a review/comparison on this!
Thanks for the review. I was really interested until the lack of programmable keys for the entire key set.
Hi, Brad! Have you tested the ROG Flow X13?
I never thought that technology will evolve that much!
Hi Brad I have been watching you for year and I am interested to buy a huion drawing tablet I was thinking about the hs64 model will you review that please
Does it work with Illustrator? This would be perfect for doing some of my logo work.
Does the keyboard of KD200 works with bluetooth mode?
keyboard works with wire mode and dongle mode, with Macbook Pro
There were 2 of the same clip next to each other, but I might buy this
I been watching a lot of your videos lately and decided to subscribe!. I love drawing and been drawing for few years now. I been looking into getting into digital art one day. People say it easier than drawing on paper lol
can you review huion rtp 700?
edit:I don't know if it's out for global tho
I am left-handed like many other artists around the world, and I've asked Huion on several channels to see if they make a left-handed version of this tablet.
It was 3 months ago, still waiting for them to get back to me.
I have a request, can you review the hs64, the reason is that I'm planning on purchasing it.
People, what to do if parblo A610 v2 doesn't work on Macbook Air M1? Change the cable or what?Wait for updated drivers from parblo?
how do you clean it's screen?
Does it have touch functionality and if so how do you turn it on? Mine doesn't seem to work.
Have you had a look at the lenovo p11/xiaoxin tab pro? Might be worth a look with its precision pen stylus.
If I were a review channel this would be the sort of product I'd be excited to try out. Currently my keyboard is snug against the top of my tablet and off to the left side so I can use those keys.
Hey! Brad could you do a review on the one by Wacom tablet, or maybe the drawing tablets you like most.
sir i have questions about the product what if you are a left handed person so it will give you a little bit problem or not
Which one is best this or Huion Inspiroy WH1409 V2?
Looks like a really cool idea to place half a keyboard there instead of generic buttons.
What if you wanted to use your left hand for drawing?
Glitch in the Matrix, or did you pop in the interface thingie twice?
Does this work on iPad at least via Bluetooth?
I’m just thinking about the dial, really.
So can we have a left-handed version?
I am new to the whole drawing tablet thing. Do this brand of tablet come with a drawing program that can be installed or no? Is that something you’d have to have added?
Don’t know about this specific product, but most don’t come with the drawing software. You’ll have to buy that separately.
Xp Pen artist pro 16 review pls brad really wanna see how the pressure performs.
I see no latency from the video, but is there any when working wireless?
Does it have left hand version
Hey Brad plz review on new Xiaomi mi pad 5 pro and its pen plz, Is it worth it?
Can it work with window 10, bro?
I like this idea. I have XP-Pen Innovator 16 so I dont need this, but what I found is I didnt make use of XP-Pen's built in dial or express keys as much as my daily typing gave me muscle memory in my hands, so its miles faster to just keybinds to keyboard shortcuts. But my full keyboard is kinda big/in the way, so having half of the keys to use instead sounds better. This device sounds like an interesting idea for a portable tablet slate with half-keyboard directly built in.
Downside tho, right-handed only. Heh.
Tho I can grab Huion KD100 for that. It's more like a numpad layout.
Hey Brad ! If you are reading this comment please review hp Chromebook I want to buy something cheap and I am confused what to buy?
For 2022 as animator ,not as illustrator . This thing actually can be a beast for some animator . Why ？A lot of pro animator nowadays usually use customize hotkey which one key pad design instead of the usual setting , which makes them faster and no doubt when using the software . How ? Eventually when animator only used up some needed function instead of all function of the entire drawing software , they may reset all needed function to where left handed keypad for more faster working progression , it does not improve the drawing because drawing skill still depend where or how much u practice but it does highly fasten all the progression when u use the drawing software with customize key in software (not in tablet). And again to people who love tablet ,this is a good choice , Also , for people who use laptop , yes , one usb slot is enough .You worry about battery , then just plug in the cable and use ,simple ,easy ,better than any tablet(maybe xD
What software do you use?
Love this tablet.
Wish they would make a pen display with the same keyboard.
Right now, I have to velcro the KD100 to the side of my display.
This would be dope with led keys like the stream deck instead of the "left half of a normal keyboard"
Can’t wait to see a review on Mi pad 5
is there a left handed one?
Excellent job on these videos Brad.
Love watching your channel just wanted to say 3:56 and 4:32 look like duplicate clips in your timeline
Ok I'm getting this
Wow, I had been looking at half gaming keyboards for those Adobe shortcuts, but this is a sleek alternative to using separate devices.
03:58 & 04:33 edit error? Did you use the half keyboard? ;-)
interested in the huion RTP700. it carries some new pen!
man I like that thingy
Nice design 🔥. Now I just gave to wait til they make this for left handed designers 😒✍🏾
Ikr 😞
Like never.
And then the right handed people will complain stuff was moved or removed. Lol
4:17
4:50
Need clarification pls, are most of these keys programmable or not??
Only the top 4 and the dial are.
@@thebradcolbow Sorry, the video made that pretty clear. I was just being a dingus because of the repeated clip lol
iPad with pencil 2 or MacBook with grafix tablet (without screen) which will you pick 🙂
def laptop+graphics tablet
if you dont have a pc already get the macbook
Waiting for the Huion Inspiroy Ink H320M Review. I really need to know if its good or nah because im going to use it for school and stuffs and I don't have money so i might regret it.
Sorry for bad english.😊✌️
is there one designed for left handed people?
Hello Brad. Can you please make review on realme pad. 🙏🙏🙏
I like to see a android app that lets you have custom shortcuts buttons, virtual dials and sliders you can map functions to to control creation programs on your Windows PC.
This is a really cool concept and I would love to see this become more of a standard, but the fact that only five of the keys are programmable kind of kills me. It also doesn't really make a lot of sense; most keyboard buttons as they are don't have a litany of useful functions attached to them (who uses Q, W, or R much in Photoshop?) and you certainly aren't going to be doing much regular typing with half the keyboard. This would be a lot cooler if they did away with the "half a keyboard" concept entirely (or maybe just kept the format or something, for ergonomic and familiarity purposes) and made like 20-ish programmable buttons with a bunch of function buttons (like Ctrl, Shift, etc.) for further customization. Between each programmable "base" button and any combination of function buttons, you could very easily accommodate for the hundreds of shortcuttable actions in almost any creative app.
most apps have customizable keyboard shortcuts and failing that you can use autohotkey to write your own scripts
😅Q is my quick mask secret weapon, w is my magic wand not so secret weapon and R can be useful for pulling guides from the rulers from time to time. This would work good as a second tablet for teaching.
I dont really think that it was focuse towards ps users. Probably was done for people who sculpt in 3D and need wasd to move in the viewport. But yeah I get what you mean
@@visual_chris I guess, but don't 3D users use a ton of shortcuts in general all across the keyboard? I'm not super-experinced in Blender and stuff, but I've done a few tutorials and that was my impression, anyway.
@@SamOliver4 yeah in general thats true. But when sculpting you are in a seperate window/tab and since you're not really doing anything else other than moving in the viewport and using the pencil to sculpt you dont need more keys. Also that's the same with other sculpting software btw.
I found out that I don't need that hand eye coordination training since I've played a lot of games, I just suck at drawing, big W
it seems realy good
It would be great if can split and use just the keyboard or just the tablet, a usb-c on both sides and a small extension to connect both open more possibilities.
The encoder wheel seems cool but on top, where you need to constantly move the hand and leave the keys isn't good, if was under the keys (interact with thumb) might be possible to use ctrl, alt and shift modifiers
Hey Brad. 🙋♂️
Can you please review the Xiaomi Mi Pad 5?
I can't find a single proper video on the pen performance of the Xiaomi Tablets.
Price/Spec-wise they look very appealing. But I don't know, if they offer Samsung level pen performance or crappy Surface Pro level pen performance. :/
Hi Brad can you do review for the Xiaoi Pad 5 pro and the Mi smart pen. It's seems really promising, cheap tablet that has specs that rivals Ipad pro's. 😁🙏
