Very satisfied
A good graphics tablet for people who want to draw as "paper-like" as possible and do not want to invest a fortune.
Pro
- sufficient size also for larger works
- sufficient color space coverage
- low parallax between pen tip and surface
- ran under Ubuntu 18.04 out of the box
- moderate price
- paper-like working (you still have to relearn)
Contra
- only Full HD (but hey, there is zoom)
Great graphics tablet
Pro
- Pleasant, rough surface
- Good size
- great, handy pen that can be "programmed
- stable feet
- comfortable tilt angle
- screen does not get hot
Contra
- many cables
- screen is a bit dark (colors look more matte)
Very nice tablet despite some connectivity requirements that I did not know
Pro
- Quality
- Very nice hardware
- Fluid pen
Contra
- Requires USB and HDMI adapters to be connected to a laptop or a Macbook.
- Handling rather difficult (setting)
good
Been using it for 2 years, daily use for professional drawing and animation. Very good so far. Screen displays don't make better art, but it's great for gaining time and efficiency.
Pen is light and feels good in my hand, I haven't experimented parallax. When using a screen display you need to be careful about neck pain. The tablet has a built in stand, and while it's better than nothing it doesn't help much and I had to get one separately (which was quite expensive as well)
After 2 years I'm starting to experiment small bugs, such as pen randomly loosing pressure, or pen detection stops. Simply holding the pen further away from the screen then putting it back on has always fixed it, but at this price, I'm hoping it will last a very long time so I'm worried about this issue getting worse with time. Still this is nitpicking and it doesn't affect my overall experience as I'm very happy with it.Pro
- good performance
- sturdy
- battery free pen
- pretty colour display
Contra
- too expensive
- difficult to put away
- no shortcut buttons
Very practical
I am very satisfied. The Wacom board can be synchronised with the screen (Mac) or set as an additional screen. Unfortunately, you have to decide whether you want to optimise the display of the main screen or the graphics board in the screen settings. If you set the Wacom to have the best resolution, the resolution of the Mac screen is much worse. I find this very unfortunate, otherwise everything is top!
Contra
- Resolution Screen (Mac) and graphics board cannot be synchronised.
Super graphics tablet, screen as expected low-contrast and blurry.
Great graphics tablet with precise input (8192 pressure levels). Screen as expected low contrast and blurry. But I knew this before (is generally so with Cintiq), but it is ideal for drawing / texturing.
Pro
- Precision
- Size
- Built-in feet stable
- pen
- pleasant drawing surface
Contra
- screen quality
