About the Product

The GT-220 V2 is Huion's latest version of its GT-220 pen display, with the main new addition being over 8,000 levels of pressure sensitivity from its new pen, which has a soft touch rubber coating but remains rechargeable. The pen is included with the graphics tablet. The pen is the main interface between the user and the tablet, so how the tool feels in the hand is critical to the experience. Huion delivers with a lightweight yet sturdy stylus, the nibs of which are hard, but not to the point of losing good feedback levels.

Draw, sketch, paint, and design directly on your monitor's surface! Expand your creativity and work naturally and intuitively. The Artist 22E Pro meets the needs of all types of digital artists at any skill level. The potential applications for the XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro are limitless!

What customers say about "Key Specs"

Huion GT-220 v2 IPS Graphics Drawing Monitor 21.5 Inch

Outstanding tablet. Pressure sensitivity is wonderful.
The pen has a great range on pressure so you can go super thin to full on heavy strokes. The screen protector works OK.
The pen pressure needs adjusting after the initial install, but once you get it down, it's buttery smooth.
Tiny bit of lag between screen and pen. It's hardly noticeable really. Especially if you've used any other tablet besides a Cintiq since it's not uncommon. But still frustrating.
The pressure sensitivity would just disappear while I was drawing something.

You can program the stylus side buttons as mouse clicks, which is fine i think.
The feel of the stylus is comfortable as is the adjustable angle of the stand for the screen.
The stylus is comfortable to hold in your hand and nice to drive on the screen.
The stylus stops working on occasion, you have to unplug the USB and plug it back it to reset. Not difficult but aggravating.
Good stuff, works fine, came in really fast and drivers work too but the stylus broke after 4 months.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Huion GT-220 v2 IPS Graphics Drawing Monitor 21.5 Inch

It's the perfect size for drawing in my set up and already I've noticed huge improvement in my art.
The size and quality of this tablet more than makes up for the price as compared to a cintiq 13hd which is super small with a huge useless border and twice the price!
It's a nice sleek size, the pen battery has lasted since i charged it once a month ago, does everything i need it to.
The size makes detail work much easier, and I've yet to have any issues with colors.
The tablet took up a lot of space on my desk. I wasn't able to reach my keyboard which I needed to use for hotkeys.

The pen itself is nice quality and has a decent weight to it. Would recommend!
It is a good size and resolution. Great initial activation force (IAF).
The size is phenomenal, I get no drag with the provided pen, and the display is effortlessly easy for a beginner like me, or a pro like some of my friends who recommended this to me.
This was my first big art tablet. Most others of this size are about $1000. It was very well packaged and arrived early.
Love this product. It reasonable and nice quality and it have a nice size toward it like them WACOM 24 monitor.

What customers say about "Display Parameters"

Huion GT-220 v2 IPS Graphics Drawing Monitor 21.5 Inch

Resolution is actually better than the Cintiq, I believe, but don't hold me to that.
It's a very affordable and easy to use tablet, the resolution is great, and the pen works flawlessly.
Colors appear as vibrant or accurate on the tablet as on a regular monitor.
Resolution doesn't really bother me, but if you zoom, your image may look pixelated due to the sheer size of this thing.
One problem is resolution choices. The only equivalent to 16:9 resolution is 1600 x 900 (PC), and it's nowhere as crisp as using the native 1080p option.

The screen is a perfect large size for me. Quality is superb and beautiful too.
This tablet has a matte screen protector on it, giving it a more paper-like feel. As someone who primarily draws traditional, I love that feature.
The screen protector now comes attached from the factory, and sticks just fine.
The screen, while not retina display quality, is still of a resolution where I enjoy working with it.
Screen is big but not exactly quality. It seems the brightness is covering up the washed look. Next to my dell u2415 it doesn't compare at all in terms of quality.

What customers say about "Features"

Huion GT-220 v2 IPS Graphics Drawing Monitor 21.5 Inch

The screen protector, I love (never took it off), the stand is very sturdy, and it comes packaged safely.
Thin border between screen and actual edge of the tablet. So you're actually paying for the enormous screen, not a giant tablet with a tiny screen in the middle.
Very stable and secure stand, easy to adjust, good locking mechanism, many angles.
The only problem was that screen protector made the screen underneath look kind of blurry. If you removed it, the screen was pretty crisp!
No shortcut buttons on the sides. Not counting this as a pro or con because I never use shortcut buttons, I just use my keyboard for shortcuts.

Right AND left handed compatible (I'm a lefty so HUGE pro for me!).
I use clip art studio as the compatible software. Complete beginner to digital art here - I purchased this tablet a little over a month ago and am so happy with the result.
Love the Artist 22E Pro. It responds perfectly at times and is compatible with the programs I used.
Despite XP-Pen stating that the drivers are win10 compatible the 22ePro I have is not being detected. I am working on getting the rectified today.
My daughters computer runs on Windows 7, and the product was said to be compatible with Win 7. However, once the drivers were installed the computer kept blue screening.
