Dial problems with the Huion GS1333 and GS1563

Background

Huion released two pen displays with dials in 2025:

• Huion Kamvas 13 GEN3 - see Huion Kamvas 13 GEN3 (GS1333) notes

• Huion Kamvas 16 GEN3 - see Huion Kamvas 16 GEN3 (GS1563) notes

Soon after the release of these tablets, some users reported problems with the dials. The specific problem can vary, but they all relate to how the dials handle or report input.

Specific problems

Examples of the problems are given below. Note that not everyone will encounter every listed problem:

• Dials may not respond to any input

• Dials may be jittery or erratic - jumping rapidly between two values

• Dials may skip input

• Dials may register a "double input" when only a single input was provided by the user

• Dials may be hypersensitive to movement, where a single input causes them to create a sudden series of inputs

• A dial may think the rotation is happening in the opposite direction

• Dials may give "ghost inputs" where the user did not touch or turn the dial, but the dial still provided input

How common are the problems

Based on other feedback, I do NOT think this is an issue that ALL GS1333 and GS1563 models have. But I do believe this issue is real and is showing up more often than one would normally expect.

My experience: I have owned both of these tablets and have NOT encountered any problems with the dials.

Time until a problem appears

Most people who encounter the problem seem to have it appear within weeks to months after getting the tablet. However, some users found that the dials had problems out of the box.

These users typically use the dials occasionally or moderately. So the issue does NOT appear to be due to heavy use.

Cause

This is not a software, driver, or operating system problem. It seems to be due to a hardware issue with the dials.

What to do

General

• Contact Huion customer support

• See the potential fix

Mitigations

• In the Huion driver, disable the dials. While this does not fix the problem, it may stop the dials from interfering with your work

Potential fix

A Reddit user disassembled his tablet and was able to fix the dials.

NOTES:

• We do not know if ALL of the different problems with the dials will be addressed by this fix.

• This does require disassembling the tablet - which will void your warranty
