Better than expected

I think wacom tablets are slightly overpriced and I can't speak for tablets that are made by other brands. I bought this for $29 at a pawn shop. Haha I guess I was lucky.

It is reliable and looks nice, it comes with a simple installer and a good tutorial. It works well for drawing. I am not an expert artist, but it works much better than a mouse for making fast and accurate strokes. It is kinda convenient to use only...

It has been a week since I bought it and it is still faster to use a mouse for pointing. This might just be an issue of training or getting used to it. Typing is faster than handwriting, though this is offset by the convenience of using only one hand....

Excellent product

I like the tracing feature but wish I had more real estate since scaling large objects was difficult. Overall, I enjoyed drawing many skitches already on the first day.
