It has made my artistic endeavors more enjoyable and efficient, and I'm confident it will do the same for you. Highly recommended!

I used this tablet to write notes in MS OneNote during the Pandemic, It worked great. I loved having the action keys to quickly undo strokes or to select a large amount of notes. The pen has pressure sensitivity meaning that you can change the width of your strokes. I also used this for Osu! and it works great! It has a feature where you can map your screen to a smaller section of the pad meaning that you can make your wrist movements as big or as small as you want. It has an easy install process and works with a lot of different laptops.

First off I am not an artist. I do a little of everything Adobe AI, photoshop, writing, drawing, signatures, annotating documents, basic coding, scripts, etc. I recently changed companies and went from Apple to Windows and have been missing some of the peripherals. I was originally looking for a keyboard/trackpad combo that would allow me to kickback(feet on desk), stand up, or be upright and take my interface with me, something different. I landed on drawing tablets and found many reviews of people who switched from a mouse and I was intrigued. I have a 34" monitor & 2 22" monitors(the basics.) The bigger the screen you have the bigger the tablet you need and they quickly get expensive. I ordered the XP-Pen Star05v2 & the Wacom Intuos Wireless Medium. Unboxing: The Wacom is much like opening an new iPhone. You get nice packaging, the device, and a charging cable. The texture and quality of the device is lovely. You find yourself liking it before you have even used it. Setup: Setup was super easy, I downloaded the software, and connected the device within a couple of minutes. First impression: At first it feels really weird at first…when you hover & move the pen over the tablet it moves the mouse. Tapping the tablet is like a mouse click. The pen/tablet is mapped 1:1 to your screen(s). If you go to the top right of the tablet the mouse goes directly to the top right of your screen. You can map the tablet to a specific screen so you have more space to draw on the tablet. You can also turn off the 1:1 mapping by putting the tablet in mouse mode. This is what I did to make the transition easier. However if you want to draw, sign documents, etc you really need to be in drawing/tablet mode. Otherwise your writing looks just like it would using a mouse. I setup some of the shortcuts in the software. I put the tablet back in tablet mode and tried Adobe AI and doing some of my work, diagrams, and did some drawings/writing. Usability: The tablet is superb for drawing, writing, design, & precision. I also liked that I could put it in my lap and scroll through web pages, applications, etc. However it just isn't quick enough for me. Perhaps one of the models with the dial and additional buttons would work. Conclusion: This unit is nice and if drawing & design were my primary function I would love it. I think I will try one of the other models with the dial. Probably the XP-Pen Pro as the Wacom Intuos Pro is just too expensive for my needs. I think a magic keyboard, magic trackpad, with the bridge would work perfectly for my needs, but I'm still using Windows primarily and not willing to pay for yearly software to make everything work.

I've had basic Wacom tablets in the past, so when I wanted to get a tablet for my 10 year old, I figured Wacom would be a good place to start. This Intuos tablet is great for beginner levels and I'm sure it would be good for semi-pros, or people who dont mind not having the drawing on the tablet its self. Very user friendly, the pen is comfortable to hold and comes with extra bits. The screen space is small, yet easy to maneuver. I like how the hot-keys are easy to set and change if need be. The reaction time is good when navigating the computer. I do wish this one came with a pen holder, but setting it in the grooved hotkeys is fine. When looking up Wacoms, I was honestly shocked at the price of the intuos. I thought I would be spending a few hundred dollars for something close to this quality, yet this one is very affordable and doesn't feel cheap. All in all I am very happy with it, and so is my child.
