I have been using Wacom drawing tablets for 15 years and finally decided to make the move to the Intuos Pro, which I have now been using regularly for almost a month. I have had ample time to weigh the pros and cons of this device and can easily say that overall, I definitely recommend it! I love using it and I got it for the best price here at PB Tech. HOWEVER, I do not recommend this if it is your first time using a drawing tablet. I recommend starting on something like Wacom Intuos Small/Medium before upgrading to the Pro once you've mastered the learning curve. Onwards to the pros and cons!

HOWEVER, I do not recommend this if it is your first time using a drawing tablet. I recommend starting on something like Wacom Intuos Small/Medium before upgrading to the Pro once you've mastered the learning curve. Onwards to the pros and cons!

Pros:
- Solid construction and quality materials
- Comfortable pen
- Lots of replacement nibs
- Textured surface that offers resistance (and therefore more control)
- Good size
- Highly customisable buttons and scroll wheel
- Great sensitivity
- Touch functions
- Pen stand! (with extra nibs stored inside)

Cons:
- Nibs wear out faster than other models (BUT I would rather the nibs wear down than the surface of the tablet! Much easier to replace). The wear on the nibs can be reduced by adjusting your settings, making the pen more sensitive and requiring less pressure for the same results.
- Pen stand is near impossible to open with the directions given! Took me forever to figure out how to open it. Place it flat on your left palm and press down firmly with your flat, right palm, twisting to the RIGHT (not the left, as indicated on the bottom of the stand). Opening it the first time is the hardest. After that, it's easy.

My journey into professional photography started mid-last year..
This tablet really brought my content to the next level!

The latency is incredible!
The size is perfect!
The pen is comfortable!

My only complaint is that- I didn't realise the nibs wouldn't last terribly long.. And I didn't realise the face of the tablet would end up looking scratched to hell after a bit of usage.
Neither of these effect the performance of the tablet- But after its price- I almost expected that nibs would last for eternity, and that it would continue to look beautiful after some use. My journey into professional photography started mid-last year..

I actually sold my large Wacom to purchase this medium size one
It is such a better size for working from home
Just remember to check the tips regularly as they can get worn to a sharp point and scratch your tablet surface I actually sold my large Wacom to purchase this medium size one

I have been using a wacom for 15 years and need to upgrade as the old board was worn. Intruo Pro was similar to what I was using and was excited about having a wireless device but have found it to lag when using bluetooth to the point I cant even use it. I have no to issues when it is connected via usb but wouldn't recommend this product if you expected to use this via the bluetooth.

The Intuos tablet always works well I just wish the tips of the pens would last longer. The Intuos tablet always works well I just wish the tips of the pens would last longer.

Easy to set up and install on your laptop or PC. The wacom drawing app is not the greatest but you could easily use Krita or Adobe Illustrator as a substitute. Need some time to adjust but all in all, a good purchase. If you are more visual with little patience lol, then I recommend a tablet rather than this as a drawing pad.

An excellent and professional product. Smooth, fluid, detailed control when USB connected. Beautiful results. An excellent and professional product. Smooth, fluid, detailed control when USB connected. Beautiful results.

I was recommended by a teaching colleague in Australia that the Wacom was really useful for teaching online classes. It has revolutionised the way I do this and I've only been using it for about 3 weeks.!!! My classes laughed to start with, but after much practice I've improved significantly. I'm mainly using PowerPoint with my Wacom and using the Draw tools there - but when I get time I will definitely branch out. I turned off the touch and the pen as I was continually activating menus that I didn't mean to. Looking forward to using it in my classroom when we get back after lockdown.

Great product thats easy to set up and use. Much easier to use than a mouse on graphics and digital sculpting apps which is what i got it for. Great product thats easy to set up and use. Much easier to use than a mouse on graphics and digital sculpting apps which is what i got it for.

I bought this to help with photo editing, having only ever used mouse and keyboard before. Thus I'm a novice at tablets but what I say may help other beginners.

I'm now wondering why I didn't buy it sooner, and I've only had the tablet for around a week. Obviously therefore I find it a really helpful tool. It was absolutely easy to install and start using, but came with minimal instructions. That was a bit disappointing as the online help wasn't that great (for someone who has never used a (Wacom) tablet before). Still, if you persevere, and explore the tablet functions just for the heck of it I reckon you'll find yourself falling in love ...view more I bought this to help with photo editing, having only ever used mouse and keyboard before.

That was a bit disappointing as the online help wasn't that great (for someone who has never used a (Wacom) tablet before). Still, if you persevere, and explore the tablet functions just for the heck of it I reckon you'll find yourself falling in love with it fairly quickly. There are still a few things that I don't know enough about, but at least I know I don't know them... it's the 'unknown unknowns' that always distress me when I eventually get told about them by someone else.

I should say that I only connected the tablet via the (supplied) USB cord - didn't muck around with Bluetooth.

This review is for four stars because I did have to waste a bit of time hunting down info that I think should have been more easily accessible. The tablet itself gets 5 stars from a novice.

The intous pro has been great so far(3 weeks into owning), much bigger than i expected and extremely accurate. Ive used poorer quality tablets in the past and this one blows them out of the water.

The only negative thing ive found about it is the touch dial to change brush sizes can be a bit figety at first but works well enough.
