HUION Kamvas Slate 11 Tablet Review

The HUION New Kamvas Slate 11 Tablet is a budget friendly device made for comprehensive usage and is a portable Android tablet that doubles as a drawing display, making it an excellent choice for artists and students who want to create on the go. Its compact size, a bit larger than an A5 notebook, makes it easy to slip into a backpack, while its solid aluminum build gives it a premium, durable feel and also is great for general tablet use which is a win win.

Display and Drawing Experience

The tablet features an 11-inch FHD+ (1920×1200) IPS screen with a 90Hz refresh rate, ensuring smooth visuals whether you’re drawing, watching videos, or playing games. One of its most notable features is the “Nano-Etched Soft Light Screen.” This matte surface does an excellent job of reducing glare and creating a paper-like texture for a more natural drawing feel. It also has a fingerprint-resistant coating to keep the screen clean. While the display is bright and the 99% sRGB color gamut is decent for general use, some reviewers have noted that the colors can appear less vibrant and the contrast is not on par with more expensive professional tablets.

It comes with a pen

The included H-Pencil is a solid stylus that offers a comfortable, lightweight feel. It boasts 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity and tilt recognition, which are standard features for this price range. This however is more so for those who are into drawing and art but for beginners like me I find it an excellent tool to have at my disposal and can learn whilst enjoying media at the same time with the split screen option. 

Performance and Features

Powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 SoC and 8GB of RAM, the Kamvas Slate 11 handles multiple applications and drawing layers without significant lag. It runs on Android 14 and comes with pre-installed creative apps like HiPaint, allowing you to start drawing right out of the box. With 128GB of internal storage, expandable up to 1TB via a microSD card, you’ll have plenty of space for your projects. The 8000mAh battery provides up to 11 hours of continuous use, and the four speakers deliver good stereo sound for multimedia.

Image and video settings and samples

Conclusion

The HUION New Kamvas Slate 11 is an impressive, budget-friendly standalone drawing tablet. Its portability, solid build, and paper-like screen texture are major selling points. While its drawing performance and display quality might not satisfy professionals, it’s a fantastic and feature-rich option for casual artists, students, and anyone looking for an all-in-one device for creative work and entertainment on the go with a great screen and great audio with 4 speakers dishing out decent sound.
