One by Wacom Small, Pen Tablet, incl. battery-free Wacom Pen 2K

My artistic intentions have always been sadly restricted by a lack of tools and talent. The free Krita digital art software and £35 for this Wacom tablet have resolved the former and even make up for some of the latter. Seriously, while creating my first digital 'painting' following Bob Ross's "Mystic Mountain" episode (yes, the illustration is my first attempt) I spent more time learning which brushes and settings were most appropriate in Krita than setting-up the graphics tablet. Apart from adjusting the pressure-sensitivity to find what was most comfortable for me and changing my mind about what I wanted the pen-buttons to do the tablet itself was a simple matter of plugging it in. As a caveat - it's just as well that everything was so simple as there is no printed or PDF manual and the only help - from the Wacom website - is not at all clear. This is, of course, an older piece of hardware and their cheapest but I would still have liked something easier to understand. It remains true, however, that the biggest obstacle to understanding the hardware that I had was in understanding how little there was to understand - it really is very, very, simple to install and operate and works extremely well. Alas, I think I still lack the talent to benefit from it fully but it has already been well worth the money and I'm very happy with this device.

I bought the Wacom One Pen Tablet twice, one for my daughter and one for my niece (both 15yo) and they are both thrilled with it! It’s easy to set up, light, fast, quick for drawing and simple to start using. A great choice for teenagers just discovering digital art and even suitable for professionals since Wacom is a trusted, reliable brand. Excellent value for money I highly recommend it!

I wanted a little tablet for photo editing on my Mac. Neither mice not trackpads are great for pixel-perfect image manipulation. I thought I'd try the small One and return it if I needed something bigger. Actually the size is a real bonus - it's large enough for very accurate pen control, but small enough that you're not waving your arm around like an orchestra conductor. I thought I was going to want a larger tablet than this, but actually the size is perfect. I've used many tablets over the years and use huge ones at work daily. For the low price this doesn't seem to have any drawbacks compared to the larger ones, for anybody who isn't a professional graphic designer. My only negative comments are: there's no upright pen holder, the device uses Micro USB rather than USB-C, and the drivers took a bit of installing, with two reboots before everything was happy. Also, the Wacom Mac drivers require permanent keyboard logging access, which I presume is so that they can monitor modifier keys when the app isn't in the foreground - but actually I don't want any app having full keyboard access for security reasons, so there should absolutely be an option for the drivers to work without full keyboard access for those who care about security rather than unwanted functionality.

I've been using a Wacom Bamboo tablet for about 7 to 8 years now for digital art and photo editing, unfortunately it died about a week ago, I highly recommend getting this tablet if you're looking for a reasonably priced upgrade. It's really simple and easy to use, it feels amazing when you're using it and the drawing window is the whole tablet which I was surprised at due to my old tablet being much larger than this one and only having a small window size. I would also like to add that this tablet could also be very good for playing games like osu. If I was to think of a downside to this tablet the one thing I could say is the pen feels like it could easily break if you put force on it, feels a little bit cheap but that's nothing to worry about unless you throw your pen across your room because you can't draw a straight line c

This pen tablet surprised me with its great functionality, it has a sleek design and the accuracy on it with the pen isn’t bad either. You just plug it into your device and you’re good to go.

Firstly, it did what it claimed and seemed well made but didn't do what I wanted and I returned it. The software, which has to be downloaded and installed, worked. The options were limited though - eg there was no way to adjust the scroll rate and I found it unintuitive that you moved the pen up to scroll down. Obviously, when we say 'scroll down' we are expecting the page to move up but the action is to move the scrubber down. There is no option to reverse this movement. I was expecting that it would take some getting used to absolute positioning after a mouse but that didn't cause much difficulty. I did find it difficult to co-ordinate tip presses and button clicks, and the hover height but that would probably improve with practice. The big problem was that I wanted to use this with CAD software which, on a mouse, required simultaneously depressing scroll wheel and right button to do 3D rotations. The pen on this tablet has only two buttons. One defaults to 'scroll' and the other to 'right mouse button'. It would be difficult to consistently depress both anyway because of their position but when you do it wasn't registered or recognized. There was no option in the software to define simultaneous button actions. So it didn't work for me.

works amazing on my Chromebook , but is a bit weird on our MacBook. easy to use, pencil has nice grip, can plug it into just about any device you can think of, and is overall great.

I didn't want to spend too much to get some light PDF annotation done on my laptop. I was looking through my options when I found this little powerhouse. Built out of solid matte plastic, I don't think any drops can harm it. The pen included is battery free, meaning seamless connection and no time wasted charging batteries. The pen glides well across the surface, whilst the slight matte texture means you can still write neatly. Pretty premium aesthetic, definitely good for office use for signing digitally. Tracks well even when I lift up the pen a good distance, so I can always see the cursor onscreen showing where my pen is. I regret not buying the bigger version, but no doubt this is so much more than I needed to begin with.

The tablet is really well built. Doesn't feel cheap which I was looking for as it was quite expensive compared to others. Pen is comfortable. Might not be applicable to most but there is a minimum size to the tablet area with the supporting Wacom tablet drivers, ~30mm x 30mm, not sure the exact measurement. You can get around this by using other tablet drivers.

Es sencilla y barata, y sirve para iniciarse en el mundo de las tabletas gráficas sin pantalla. Compré el tamaño pequeño para poder tomar notas en reuniones, que escribo directamente en OneNote. Es decir, únicamente lo uso para notas y no para dibujar ni retoque fotográfico, aunque imagino que será posible, aunque quizás limitado por el tamaño del área de dibujo. Hay que decir que requiere acostumbrarse un poco a manejar el lápiz, y a escribir en la tableta a la vez que miras la pantalla del portátil o el monitor, porque los 2-3 primeros dias tienes la sensación de que cuesta mucho escribir como lo harías en papel, pero al de poco tiempo se le pilla el truco. Hay videos en youtube con usuarios que dan consejos interesantes. Por poner una pega, esta versión no tiene conexión bluetooth, con lo cual dependes de tenerla siempre conectada por USB al portátil. Por cierto, no requiere batería ni pilas, ya que el cable USB sirve para al alimentación y para la señal. Finalmente, viendo ahora la utilidad que le doy creo que me habría merecido la pena ir al tamaño mediano, pero desde luego, si el objetivo es únicamente tomar notas o hacer esquemas me parece un buen producto.

I use this produkt for digital art, gaming (OSU) and occasionally just as an input device for my cursor. I've owned its bigger brother for four years now, traveled across the world with it and it hasnt had any issues. Light, portable (you could stow it anywhere), no parts that could break off or get damaged. Performance wise its got no latency, which really improves artistic and gaming life. The pressure levels are quite sensitive (adjustable) so you have lot to play with. Obviously since it doesnt have a screen it may feel a bit weird at first to use, since we've gotten so accustomed to our smartphones, but it give you a reliable work surface that has a nice feel to it and you dont have your hand in the way, which means better overview of your screen. The pen itself is very light and need no batteries or charge, works anytime. I havent had to change the tip either in four years. Lost my old one recently, the new one feels just like it. It is cheap and i would recommend it to anyone looking for a gift for someone who is just starting out with digital art. My younger siblings all loved it, so you could get your kid to be creative while in front of the screen. TL;DR: Easy to use, take it anywhere with you, very reliable.

Ho acquistato questa Wacom One by Wacom Small circa un anno fa per avvicinarmi al mondo del disegno digitale da completo principiante, e devo dire che è stata una scelta azzeccata. Fin da subito si è rivelata molto intuitiva e semplice da usare, anche per chi non ha mai provato una tavoletta grafica. In poco tempo sono riuscito a realizzare disegni e bozze digitali con precisione e fluidità, cosa che prima non mi era possibile. È una tavoletta entry-level, quindi non può essere paragonata ai modelli professionali di fascia alta, ma per chi è agli inizi è perfetta: leggera, precisa e compatibile con la maggior parte dei programmi di grafica. Forse migliorerei leggermente la qualità costruttiva, che risulta piuttosto semplice, ma per il prezzo e per l’uso a cui è destinata va più che bene. In sintesi, la consiglio assolutamente a chi vuole iniziare a disegnare in digitale senza spendere troppo e con un prodotto affidabile. ✅ Pro: intuitiva, precisa, ottima per principianti, prezzo competitivo ❌ Contro: materiali migliorabili

Let me start by saying I got an xppen for my birthday before ordering this one. It was a disaster, the pen was so big and fat I could barely hold it, let alone use it for more than 30 minutes at a time without my hand hurting. It was so bad I ended up switching back to mouse for a month or so before i eventually gave in and ordered this one. This is a great tablet through and through, great buld quality, a nice comfortable size and no built in hardware smoothing. Nothing bad I have to say about this tablet really
