Huion A3 LED Touch ADJUSTABLE Illumination Lightbox Lightpad for Craft Design Photo or Tracing

I bought this three years ago, and I have had issues with it since I bought it. However, I couldn't afford to return it or buy a different one, so I've learned to adapt to using it.The button is verrry touch sensitive; there's been a few times where I've brushed my fingers on it, and it's either dimmed or turned off; however, this isn't a big isssue, and I have been able to live with that.The biggest issues for me were;- The plastic backing comes off very easily, and on several occassions the small circuit board has popped out when trying to unplug the adapter from the light pad. As a fix, I used packing tape to keep the plastic to the board, to prevent the circuit from coming out again, but this hasn't worked too great either.- It flickers and dims a lot, and I have also had issues turning it on.- I unplugged it recently, so I could clean my desk; which once again made the small circuit board come out, and even though I tried my best to gingerly to put it back in, one of the wires must have snagged, and is now completely disconnected from the circuit board. So, now the light pad doesn't turn on at all.It really isn't that great, and I really do believe that for the quality of this product the price should be much cheaper. When I bought this three years ago, it was priced at £70, and after working with it through all of these issues, I really don't believe that it's worth that much.However, I have given it three stars because despite all these issues, it has lasted me three years, and it has been brillaint to work with when it functions properly. The dimming feature is brilliant, as it works with different thicknesses of paper, and the brightness can go up quite high.These issues however, I feel Huion really need to take into consideration to make their product better. Will I be buying this again? .... Unless I can find a better Lightpad, then possibly.

I needed a lightbox for drawing as when I line my drawings I rub out the sketch afterwards, which erodes the lines and I often have to go over the pen lines again. I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a ligthbox, nor buy a cheap quality one. Like others I read lots of reviews, and found that most people were pleased with this.So I went along and bought it: and I am absolutely impressed. I am so happy i got this for £60 - because it feels like a bargain! The quality is just so good, the brightness settings and just the overall look and feel is just so superb! I would recommend this lightbox to anyone who's looking for one! I am so so so impressed, 5 stars is just not enough to describe how happy I am with this product.And, for anyone concerned about the cable length as I was, its about a metre long (I'm 5ft 2" and if I hold it in one hand it stretches past the other) which is good for me as I happen to have a plug socket behind my desk and I use an extension lead by my bed anyway.This also comes with a 2-pin plug adaptor which is handy if you're going to travel abroad with this item! The packaging is fantastic as well.

If you want a lightpad, I'd really recommend this one over the slightly cheaper Minisun ones. On a Minisun the cable is on the underside, which in my case meant it severed after a few weeks of use because, obviously, that's where the pressure is placed when in use. With a Minisun you also don't get the option of replacing the cable as it is glued in to the unit. With the Huion however, the cable is detachable and fits to the unit at the side. It's just as bright as the Minisun but feels better made. The adjustable brightness feature is also very useful for my work.There are some downsides: the touch-sensitive button is easy to accidentally turn off when working as it has no lock feature. Also the cable is too short so I'm always having to plug it into extensions. And it did take a while to arrive as I believe it's manufactured in Hong Kong. Still though the delivery was free and the downside factors aren't anywhere near as annoying as the bad points of other lightpads. So: highly recommended.

The light box is great, well made and solid. The dimming function is very useful especially for different thicknesses of paper. At first I occasionally brushed the off switch by mistake, but learnt quickly to keep my fingers away from it - very sensitive. I have found that the mains lead needs to be in the light box before it is plugged into the wall or it won't switch on. And if the plug is left in with the light box off, the plug sometimes needs to be unplugged and re-plugged before it lights. The lead is short, about a metre. All this said it still is a fantastic bit of kit - used most days since it arrived. The A3 model is big enough for 2 children to draw on A4 sheets at the same time with lighted area to spare. Speedy delivery and well packaged.

Good and solid product, but clearly overpriced.The lightboard does what it should and works quite well. It is quite thin and light, but these are not really complaints. Nice to have a dimming function, too. However, the build quality (made in China) is average at best, I would say -- and for that, the price is definitely too high. In my box I found an original receipt (from the Chinese retailer, apparently) for 18 US $. Reselling this for almost 70 £ seems brazen to me.

I love this product, it great for animation drawings. Of course other drawings can be done using this item. I mainly use it for my animation work, it's a must have. Definitely worth investing in for tracing, animation, or anything else that requires you to use a light box/light pad. The brightness adjusting was quite confusing at first but you can increase and decrease brightness but holding on to the power button until desired brightness is set. Do the same for decreasing the brightness. Hope that was helpful. That aside this light pad is very is to assemble and use.
