Customers are saying

Customers regard the Bamboo Spark Smart Folio and Stylus Pen as easy to use and convenient for digitizing notes. Many found the app intuitive and helpful for editing drawings. A limitation mentioned by some users was the smaller paper size, with a desire for larger options. The overall experience, however, was largely positive due to its ease of use and helpful features.

    I still like to take notes by hand, but it is hard to keep up with all the notebooks. I needed something that allowed me to still write, but could save as a digital file. Answer: the Wacom Bamboo Spark. It has been especially helpful as I am using it to keep all notes from an online graduate program.

    The bamboo spark is a great tool for those who prefer pen and paper but want to log notes digitally. The app used with the spark is easy to and provides some basic features. It would be nice to have a feature which sends directly to a new one note page. An auto on feature would be good as well. Easy to forget to turn on before taking notes. I would also like 8.5 x 11 size paper.

    Really responsive and works great. It is by far the best product on the market. The app syncs with the pages and the pen is sturdy.

    Picked this up on sale and using rewards points. It is a little pricey, but has been surprising handy. Use it to take notes at conferences or to sketch out ideas. Much better than trying to write left handed with a stylus on a tablet. Can easily review the notes, etc on my tablet or phone (both have the app) or share as a PDF. It is also easy to edit drawings using the app. Still new to all the bells and whisles, but the Spark has replaced the tablet for note taking (I remember better if it is handwritten).

    Liked the concept when announced and waited for the price to come down. Not having to use a special paper is the best, just max to 9x6in and done. Cheaper notepads available in office max and so other stores. App syncs very easy and all reports, notes, sketches , etc, can be sent by email as PDF in a snap. Use my iPhone on the pocket to the left and the pad to the right, but the app is configurable so you can choose rotation according to your project. I can see someone with iPad doing the same, but this model does not have the clamps for it. You have to be careful reading the specs so that understand what model you need or would use from the three offered at this time.

    I'll be honest... I hate computers but always like the idea of being able to write or draw something and have it appear on the screen. Using a tablet though just doesn't give you the same feel as paper and pen though. This does both. I could write or draw what I want on paper and if it's something I want to save I just send it to my phone. Convenient and easy.

    I love this device. I was looking for something to digitize my notes easily. Not to mention a way to carry my note without carrying multiple notebooks. This helps me put all my notes in one place.

    I enjoy being able to scribble or draw diagrams on the fly for school projects. This does it all and more. Love the product and for those artistic folks you'll love it even more.

    It's definitely a nice concept but they should have included some additional basic features would have made this a more enjoyable aso an artistic type tool.

    I was kinda confused when I first bought this because I mistook it for a different type of Wacom tablet. But it was kinda fun to play with before I returned it to get the right type of Wacom.

    Nice to upload my written notes on the go. Not easy to find replacement pads or pens for this item. Pen is not the greatest, but does what it claims.
