FAQ

  1. What about a black model?
    Not for now, I will look at more colour varieties in the future!
  2. Drivers? OS support?
    Works out of the box on any OS.
  3. Who is the manufacturer?
    HUION. They are a large and trustable chinese tablet manufacturer.
  4. The pen uses batteries?
    Yes, 1 AAA. It is supposed to last for ages (I haven't run mine out yet), and the weight feels quite nice in the hand.
  5. Is a battery included?
    Yes.
  6. Spare nibs?
    Yes, four of them.
  7. Latency?
    I have tested and can confirm the spec of ~5ms input latency (based on 200 reports/sec) is pretty accurate.
  8. Why so cheap?
    I'm not looking to make a profit. Most osu! players don't have a huge disposable income, and my goal here is to allow everyone who wants to try a tablet to do so.
  9. But I want a larger 6"x8" tablet! I can't play on such a small one!
    If there is enough demand, I can look at expanding the range. Personally I find this size more suitable for osu!, especially for people looking to start learning tablet play.
  10. How much is shipping?
    Asia: ~$11
    North & Central America, Oceania, Middle East, Caribbean: ~$15
    Europe: ~$18
    South America, Africa: ~$20
    See the checkout page at the store for more accurate shipping cost.
  11. Do you ship to xxx?
    See this page for detailed shipping information.
  12. How long will delivery take?
    Varies based on where it has to be shipped to. Anywhere from 2-14 days.

Tablet dimensions are always measure in imperial, unfortunately. That's just how things are.

Onge
I really want one! but I would definitely prefer a black one, doushio (´ω`)
TimKuchiki
The sooner I can get my hands on one of these the better! :)

I already have a tablet, but damn, I think thats a huge step for osu and I love that its going into this direction.

Gj peppy, keep it up!

Wow nice!

The active area is actually very similar to what I'm using right now (99.3mm x 55.9mm). Very tempting hmm...

Can't quite tell what sort of surface finish it has from the pic though. Is it a matt finish throughout, or is it a smooth drawing area surrounded by matt finish?
Sneakyyy
Looks cool! I may buy this just to try a tablet, see if it is better than my mouse :D

Wacom don't offer such customised builds.

It has a paper-like texture and is not completely smooth, but not rough as such.

Ah I see thanks peppy!

Finally, right?

Please get this shipping soon ppy, holiday shopping is taking a toll on my wallet.
Dexus
I hope it gets released before Christmas so I can give them as gifts to people.
thelewa
That pen looks awesome, getting that tablet even if it's just to see how it performs against wacom tablets

A heavier pen will most probably mean way more control over your movements, which is nice.
Ninjamac
I'm definitely getting one.
It'll actually encourage me to learn to play on tablet.

I want there to be a design to reflect the darkness of my soul
Dznutz
I'm down with the black colorway. It makes the logo pop out on any desk setup that you have.
HD on demand type shit ^.
Simply because its black. But i'd still buy this first osu! tabet
Bet that.

Glad my friend showed me this game 3 months ago. Been on it ever since.

The idea of osu!tablets has been around for about a year. :P

I'm considering getting this. But there is one thing I'm not sure about. Are there any performance issues? For example, can you play using this tablet as good as if you would use a Wacom tablet? Like if rrtyui played with this, would he play as good?

When I get this, should I set the tablet area proportions to match my osu! resolution proportions? (16:10 1680x1050 fullscreen)

pretty cool, hope this can be shipped to china mainland

By the stated specs only, the tablet would be better than a Wacom Bamboo tablet (though the osu!tablet has a smaller tablet area).

It would need some testing to make sure it is like that.
-Deity-
Great, i'll buy black version as soon as possible :3
ampzz
I'll be waiting patiently on a 6x9" release since I cannot physically adjust to a smaller tablet due to constant hand jitters which is utterly impossible to play anything bar no mod comfortably.

When they (the larger tablets) are released I will be instantly purchasing 2~3.
mekadon_old
That's really cheap, even if it's $50 with shipping. Would get a dark version once it is released. Would be nice too if I can test first, but the specs are way better than my one

A heavy pen sounds nice too
[-Meiton-]
I hope the shipping is available for hungary.
Rori Vidi Veni
Well, 30$ is roughly 95 PLN, and the newest Wacom Bamboo is 245 PLN. And both Wacom and Huion have unofficial Linux drivers...
Shipping costs are really going to be the dealbreaker here.
Spyrunite
I can't wait for these to come out. Hoping to buy one as soon as I can
Metalbear
I'm really considering buying one. I always wanted to try playing with a tablet but buying one only for osu! wasn't worth the price.
Lust
Battery included? (I'm a cheap guy so I just want to make sure I can use it right away or I need to go out and get some when it arrives)
Mianki
What's the approx shipping for Europe? If it's over 2,7 AUD then for example I'd have to pay for customs. (Presuming that 30$ is AUD.)
