this will not help you draw. its extremely difficult to get the computer cursor to go where you want it to. if you want to draw get one with its own screen

Love wacom tablets, but this one does not work wirelessly like it is supposed to, and because of Best Buy return policy I have kept it, other than that it works great,
I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great tablet for drawing; however, to be honest I would spend a bit more to get the larger tablet that Wacom makes or even better save for the digital Walcom One.

In no fan of this. The mouse pointer moves way before you even touch the drawing pad. And controlling it is hard af. No thanks but thanks

Over all, I really love my Wacom Intuos. I appreciate the Bluetooth feature and recommend getting it, but the cord is not actually that cumbersome and I do use it sometimes. The texture is good, rough enough that the pencil doesn't feel like it skids. The quality feels good, not cheap or crummy.
Software registration is a bit of a pain. Look for your registration ID number on your Wacom online account, not on the box or tablet like it seems. I think it says you need a serial number or something, but you actually need a registration number. It's pretty complicated. Also, you can only pick two out of three. I picked Clip Studio Paint and I really love it, it's a top notch paint software used by tons of professionals.
The buttons on the Intuos aren't very well-located. On the Huion equivalent, they are all on one side, which means you can hold it with one hand and operate the buttons while using your other hand just for the pencil. With the Intuos you can't conveniently reach half the buttons.
The pencil has two buttons on the side that are very easy to click, but they are also easy to accidentally click which mucks up your drawing. Also, the relatively rough surface of the tablet really wears down nibs and they only send four replacements.
For me, it was very easy to learn to draw on the tablet and see it on my computer. I use this on my MacBook, and the pair are very light and portable. Lines are good and true, pressure sensitivity is good, no wobble that I have found yet. And it holds a charge really well. Overall, I highly recommend this tablet if you're getting into digital art. It gives you the whole experience and will let you figure out if you love it enough to invest in better tech, like an iPad Pro.

Amazing tablet for beginning graphic artists

First I would like to state my experience in graphic arts which is absolutely zero, I have done traditional art but never done more than mess around with the paint program on PC. So this whole experience was new to me.
The instructions are super minimal with only a website link to begin the registration and then download the required software from Wacom. The instructions also include an illustration demonstrating how to change out the replaceable pen nib. Registration is just a matter of creating or signing into a Wacom account. If you create the account you will have to check your email to finish the registration. Once the Wacom software is downloaded and runs on PC it will need to restart Mac does not have to. After restart or install run the Wacom Desktop program that installed and it will prompt you to download any necessary drivers for your product. You can also go to your account on Wacom and select 2 of the 3 available software downloads which are all very good programs and do different things. Each of these has videos and tutorials to help you get into graphical arts.
The tablet and pen itself take some time to get used to but all the settings and sensitivity can be adjusted through the Wacom software to your preference. There are shortcuts along the top of the tablet that can be configured for desktop mode and for each of your drawing programs as well. The same can be done with the buttons on the pen itself. Overall the tablet and pen are a great tool for artists that are interested in graphical arts and are looking for an entry point into it. With a relatively low cost easy setup and 2 included software programs that help you get into graphics arts the Wacom Intuos tablet is a great buy.

Finally was able to purchase an upgrade from this tablet, still Wacom, but the upgraded version has an actual display screen on the tablet. This tablet on the other hand, makes it very difficult to judge your placement from pen to computer screen. Drawings will be off, but again that is why if you're on a budget this tablet will suffice.

Great beginner Wacom tablet

As a Photoshop beginner, I wanted a more natural way to manipulate my edits. I was surprised that Wacom tablets were reasonably affordable.
When I got the device, I plugged it into my desktop running Linux just to charge up the tablet. I didn't mean to use it, but it immediately worked and I was able to manipulate my screen using the pen+tablet as I would using my mouse. So I fired up GIMP and was able to comfortably start up a drawing.
I was immediately surprised by the feel of the drawing on this pen+tablet. I thought with the affordable price tag, it was going to feel like a stylus on glass. It actually feels like pencil on paper. Very nearly like pencil on a sketch pad.
I then wanted to connect it to my Windows 10 tablet via Bluetooth and was disappointed in the process. I connected first via the included USB cable, while Windows would identify the product, I couldn't use it to manipulate anything on screen. I then connected via Bluetooth and it did the same thing. So I ran out to Wacom's website and pulled down the driver and after a reboot, things worked fine. I was expecting at least a basic driver to be included in Windows.
As for the product itself. For being a "small" tablet, it's actually decently sized. I found that the mapping of the dimensions are spot on. So the left of the tablet corresponds to the left hand of my screen and the same thing with the right, top and bottom. So I don't have to "lift and shift" every so often like I would do with a mouse.
The micro-USB port is on the left hand side at the top of the tablet. It's mildly annoying to a left-handed person like me, but having Bluetooth connectivity makes up for this most of the time. You cannot use the tablet by itself like if it were a large trackpad. I'm left wondering how the technology works since there is no battery in the stylus. But I'm OK with leaving the magic behind the curtain for now.
The pen is fairly ergonomic, lightweight and well balanced. 3 extra nibs are included when you unscrew the back. There is even a nib removal tool. What is missing though is an "eraser" that is found on the back of the professional stylus and on the Microsoft Surface stylus.
Overall, it's a great beginner Wacom device and I can't wait to use it more.
