Huion Kamvas Pro 16 V2 (GT-156 V2) notes

Summary

I do not have this tablet, these notes are based on me evaluating the specs and my experience with other tablets.

This is a refresh of the previous Kamvas 16 2021 (GS1562) - which was a decent tablet but a bit outdated as of 2025: Huion Kamvas 16 2021 (GS1562) notes

The key improvement here is that the tablet has a better pen: The PW600A whereas the older model has the PW517 pen.

I think an even better choice would be the Kamvas 16 GEN3 (GS1563) which has a higher resolution.
