Customer Review

Hello Hello,

my first review, and the first on this product. I bought it because I did not find a review and wanted to test it at least once.

My idea for the product was a novice graphic tablet with wireless (yes I bought the wireless version), which you can use as a mouse.

The product came with me on 2 AAA batteries. The shelf life I could not test, because I'm going to send it back. But may be my fault, why I bought it.

To spare you the error, I am writing this review. The pad does not work (at least under Windows (7)) with Photoshop or to be more precise, the sensitivity does not.
Although the pad has pressure sensitivity, but since it only runs with Windows drivers and Wacom offers no additional drivers, this will only work in Windows programs. That's the main reason why I'm going to probably buy a Intous Pen from Wacom. But wanted to give a chance to the pad at least, stood on Wacom nowhere that Photoshop does not work. Only after I've searched on Google, I have a post found in the support forum where Wacom says that the pad is not suitable. Whether this is my fault, because I have not been sought after or exactly Wacom's fault, because they have not specified separately, is up to you.

So if you want to make notes and a touch pad needs that something like this works like a laptop / tablet + extra Shortcutbewegungen for Win8, then the pad a good acquisition.

Coming soon to the + and - points:

+ USB plug enable (wireless adapter) in USB slot and Pad -> works instantly!
+ Very stable design for the little pad
+ Touchpad works flawlessly. Zooming, scrolling and Win8 shortcuts (only under Win7 tested)
+ Pen works immediately and if you practice it, then dominated one short notes so quickly

- Pen is very light and feels not very high
- Does not support Photoshop etc.!
- Begins with me to react already 1-2cm above the pad on the pen, but this is for short notes not so bad

+ - Touchpadfläche is ok. With the fingers I hesitated at first, but that could be due to me. The stylus glides quite well over the pad.

I hope this helps some of you in the decision and saves you the return if you send another expected from the pad.
