Customer Reviews

computer graphic design5
I bought this product for my son who is 15 and enjoys drawing using the computer. His computerized drawings and coloring are more true to his design and idea since purchasing this product. The lines of his drawings are now straight/softer, not jagged/harsh and the coloring in the drawings has the appearance of a painting. Now his drawings look like a painting or an animated picture from a comic book instead of a scanned in pencil and paper picture. Loading the software and attaching it to the computer was easy. He was able to do it without any assistance. He loves it!

Response time-not good2
I have owned 2 drawing tablets (Wacom and this one). This tablet is very frustrating because at least twice a day the tablet quits responding to clicks. It is fine for drawing but I use it in place of a mouse and become very frustrated when trying to tap with the pen. At least once a week I have to open the pen and turn the battery or change it. The Wacom never did this even though it was about six years old.

I will never buy a tablet that uses batteries again.

For everyday use, I would recommend purchasing a better tablet.

Good starter tablet...3
Mac users should check the website before installing.

Love the tablet but when I installed it on my 10.5.5 iMac it disabled the functionality of my dual monitor even when using just the mouse. Since I use reference material often at my work, this is an extreme disappointment... hopefully it will be updated soon.

Also might be nice to have relative pointing instead of absolute... sometimes reaching the top of the tablet to reach the top of the screen is tiring (as someone with limited mobility).

Lots of other little things annoy me with it but it does its job. A good beginner's tablet.
