There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The tablet has 4 expressive keys that can be maped with the driver (undo, redo, pan/scroll/zoom), and the pen has also two buttons that also can be mapped to different functions (eraser, pressure).
It includes a free software bundle with the program ArtRage Lite and a few tutorial videos, I didn't have any problems at all with the download and registration of the software and the tablet to Wacom's page. Obviously you register first your Wacom tablet and then they give you the serial number for your ArtRage product.
Now, let's see more about this tablet per categories:
1-Drivers: I had a couple of problems with this, the tablet came with a CD with the driver installer, although I rather'd download the driver from the Wacom website. I downloaded and installed it (tablet not connected), then I connected my tablet and it worked, I mapped the expressive keys with the driver and I tried the tablet with ArtRage and it worked fine, then all of sudden, pen wasn't working and also the expressive keys, so I opened the Wacom Tablet Properties and nothing! It appeared a message that said DRIVER NOT FOUND, weird as hell! So, I deleted the tablet's driver and installed it again, and it worked for a few minutes, and then... nothing! The same thing happened! So I deleted again, reinstalled it again, but this time I changed the usb port, I plugged my tablet in a different usb port and that's was it! Mistery solved! Apparently the usb port lost connection with the tablet, so that's why the message DRIVER NOT FOUND, when I changed the tablet to another port the tablet didn't fail again. So it's important try this if it happens the same to you.
2-Software: Like I said before, the Intuos Draw includes the ArtRage Lite, I also tried the Autodesk Sketchbook and both work flawless, I mapped the expressive keys for both programs and also the pen, they'r both amazing apps for you different kind of art.
3-Tablet and Pen: Here comes the most important, the tablet and pen work with EMR (Electromagnetic Resonance) the pen doesn't use batteries, so it works with electromagnetism. So, this has a downfall. I usually use my tablet with my laptop on my desk in my room. One day I took my laptop and tablet to the tv room, and I put my laptop on my lap and the tablet on the couch's arm, when I opened the software it started to behave really weird, the pen did lines that I wasn't doing, the expressive keys didn't work at all and things like that. So intermediately I took my laptop and tablet and went back to my room, put both on my desk, and the tablet and pen work perfectly again! So, it's simple to guess, there were some kind of interference in my tv room that made my tablet and pen behave that way, maybe an electric failure somewhere, some cable loose or I don't know really, what I Do know, is that something interrupted the connection between the tablet and pen. I think this is important to know, and it only happened in the tv room, in my room I have my speakers connected to my iPod on my desk, and I always listen to music when I'm drawing, and it doesn't interfere with the tablet or pen, they both work perfect even near my speakers and tv also on, so that's why I guess there must be some electric failure in my tv room. So, that's not a tablet or pen problem, I think it's the way they work together, you just have to make sure you won't have any problems where you're gonna use mostly your tablet.
The pen is absolutely accurate! And that's because of the EMR, the lines, eraser, everything you do it's completely accurate! The active area is 6'' x 3.7''
OVERALL: The Wacom brand is the best in the market. I would definitely recommend this tablet for people with small budget or with reduced space on the desk. It works amazing with the different software. The driver issue has nothing to do with the tablet itself, the Intuos Draw works as suppose to do and it's really cool for drawing or painting, it's easy to use and the pen has the right size, it feels like a graphite pencil in your hand. If you're not used to have your eyes and hand in different places, this might not be suited for you. I only used paper and graphite pencils but I wanted to try to draw also in digital, it's a little bit hard at the beginning but I think you can get used to.
This is an amazing tablet, and I wouldn't hesitate in recommend it to someone or buying another one.
Technical things I like:
You can hover a decent distance over the tablet and it will still move the cursor ( again, i had a bad tablet that only let me hover a 1/4 inch).
All buttons on the tablet and pen are super easy to map. I mapped them to undo, redo, zoom in, zoom out, pan, and hold pressure.
The nib feels great on the tablet. It doesn't slip around, but it doesn't stick either. Feels kind of like pencil and paper.
The look and feel is fantastic
The pressure sensitivity can be adjusted so it's perfect. Everything comes out flawlessly on the screen with no lag or blots where the sensitivity gets confused at low pressure.
Technical things that are kind of meh :
Occasionally the pen draws out a dot of full pressure. I might be slipping on a button or something, but it's not an impedance because it only happens rarely.
I haven't found this to impact my quality or efficiency, but the pen feels a little light and a little plastic-y. I might just end up getting used to it. The texture keeps it in your hand.
The drivers didn't install right when i ran the installer on the disk, but i was able to easily download them (this was probably an issue with my machine).
Would I recommend this to a friend? YES!
I can see myself using this 70$ tablet for years. 10/10 best tablet for your money.

El empaque y la presentación de la tableta es algo llamativa y los detalles están bien cuidados, ademas de que tiene un toque elegante e intuitivo para revelar la tableta en una bonita primera impresión, ademas de que todo viene en su sitio sin que falte algo. El código viene por un lateral y tampoco es que sea algo que cualquiera pueda ver hasta que lees donde esta la llave para el software gratis. En este apartado Wacom nunca decepciona.
En cuanto a la tableta, pues es toda una maravilla en su totalidad. La calidad en los materiales de construcción se siente inmediatamente y los pequeños detalles se hacen notar. El enchufe para el cable y este mismo están diseñados de tal modo que quede por un lado de forma que no se doble el cable y que no se dañe el conector. La pequeña pestaña de tela que tiene por arriba ayuda a guardar el lápiz para facilitar el transporte de la tableta, y tanto los repuestos, como la ranura para el wireless y el quita puntas, se encuentran debajo de la tableta al quitar la tapa, cosa que de alguna manera mantiene todo seguro para que nada se pierda y este todo en el mismo lugar.
Los aspectos de uso y trabajo también están buenos, pues los botones express keys de la tableta y el lápiz son muy útiles si se les da uso, ademas de que la pulsación es cómoda y suave. El lápiz y su autonomía sin baterías es algo que siempre destaca de los lapices Wacom, ademas de que la superficie de la tableta y la calidad y peso del stylus se sienten muy bien, lo que hace ágil el uso de la tableta a la hora de trabajar. Realmente la calidad de construcción del periférico en general brinda buenas sensaciones en todo sentido.
Si lo que necesitas es una tableta gráfica para trabajar en digital o igual apenas te estas metiendo en esto y no quieres gastar mucho dinero pero buscas calidad, sin duda la Intuos Draw de Wacom es la respuesta definitiva a tus necesidades e inquietudes futuras. Altamente recomendada.

Compared to my old Bamboo, it's couple of levels up. Pen is smaller and lighter, and very convenient.
Keys on the tablet are very handy, since they are located in easy to reach areas.
Setup is simple, and I was pleasantly surprised to finally work without issues on Windows (there were some conflicts in older models, but still nothing major).
What I loved the most:
1. Compartment for nibs inside. I was always losing them before, and now they are always at hand!
2. Ability to make it cordless (I'm going to purchase adapter later)
3. Customization for every.single.app. I'm sure fellow designers will appreciate it so much! You can set your default preferences + different sets of preferences and hotkeys for app you use.

Recomiendo iniciar con esta tableta para probar las demás una a una. En mi caso hice lo mismo, pero finalmente me gusto más que otras, nunca dejé de usarla. Tres años de uso y aún sigo feliz con ella.
(Los botones exprés, las funciones touch, y cualquier otro plus son mera preferencia; yo las he probado en otras tabletas y prefiero no utilizarlas, me es más cómodo el usar el teclado de mi equipo. Si trabajas con pantallas pequeñas esta es una gran opción, pero lo mas probable es que te sea mas cómoda la Wacom Pro o la Cintiq para monitores mayores a las 22").
