Customer Ratings & Reviews

Its great, I have not learned how to use all the features but it gets the job done and makes great strokes for illustrations. It has a much larger screen than I thought so I was pleasantly surprised. I use this with Adobe Illustrstorfor pressure sensitivity and it also makes my work go along faster than with a mouse. I can pretty much use it as a tablet with the pen if I am navigating chrome, but its best used for illustrating.

I have used Wacom tablets for many years starting with the Intuos. It is great for photo editing thru Photoshop along with other aps. The Wacom one is the best I have used because the photo shows right up on the tablet so I can Direct draw. The Wacom Intuos I started with was a blank tablet to draw on but you had to look at the computer screen when drawing on the tablet. With the wacom One you draw right on the photo which makes it more accurate. I would recommend this product to any photoshop user or any others who use photo editing programs! Below are some of the photo manipulations and photo enhancement I have done with the Wacom One.

Absolutely love! Perfect for beginners or experts and everything in between! Easy setup and display is great! Highly recommend!

This is exactly what I needed for working remotely from home. I am a professional VFX Artist and Matte Painter for film and television and was researching affordable Wacom Tablets for home. I've been aware of Cintiques and had no idea there was such a similar product, affordable...AND FROM WACOM!!! This plus the my Surface Laptop 2, Surface dock, and a 50" HD TV gives me 3 monitors to work from with this little beauty being my Virtual Work station interface. Highly recommended for those with limited finances, but require the pen/tablet experience for working.

I am not a professional at digital art but I have researched similar products for a while now. This is my personal opinion. The tablet has a sturdy feel and decent build quality to it. The screen is a matte finish so you do not get to much reflection from it. The software was and installation where easy to install and setup. As far as my research the price and feature for beginner to mid level user. I am using it with Corel photoshop and Painter. Some other people prefer to use Adobe products.

This is an entry level Wacom drawing tablet/screen. Does not have a touch screen which would make things a ton easier when drawing and sketching. So I bought the Wacom Express Key Remote to help with navigating the drawing apps. This tablet requires that you have a PC/Mac or a compatible android tablet or phone to use. Im using my PC which has a thunderbolt 3 port for use with other peripherals like this. The connection is easy via USB C and one USB A port. You turn on the wacom tablet and can start drawing in seconds. Make sure you download the wacom drivers prior to plugging in the tablet screen. My app of choice is the free Sketchbook pro, I did download the free software bundle but still prefer Sketchbook. Drawing on this tablet does have a learning curve if you're used to drawing on other things like an iPad pro or Samsung tablet. Im really yet to learn the benefit of this tablet over those two except you can use your full desktop apps like Adobe Photoshop which I did test out but the UI is not that user friendly especially with no touch screen. And the price point of 400.00 makes this an easier purchase than an iPad pro or equivalent. The great thing about this tablet is the matte screen, it gives your pen that feeling of drawing on actual paper. There is no lag and even though the specs mention a 26ms response time, I have not noticed any delay when drawing. The stroke keeps up with the pen and the 4000 levels of pressure are easily utilized. Wacom is the leader when it comes to pen technology. Ive dedicated my drawing time over the last week to this tablet and have not used any other medium or device. After getting over the learning curve Im starting to get used to drawing with it. The EK remote does help so consider purchasing that if you do buy this or another wacom tablet. (the pro's come with the remote) Its extremely light weight and easily moved around the desk. The feet that pop out of the back give this tablet the perfect drawing angle (at least for me) and under the feet are the replacement nibs for the pen. With the feet out there is no wobble or movement, very secure and sturdy. I love to draw and the Wacom One 13 has enhanced my ability even more, and I love different options when deciding what to draw with.

Great product. Easy to use, fun. Just as described

First time working with something like this. For beginners: It's basically like using 2 screens, you have to extend your screen. I attached a photo I made using it.

good product. not as portable as it seems. still gotta have some type of computer system plugged in. whether it be a cellphone laptop or desktop. this product is basically an external monitor you can draw on

As an artist ….. this product is pretty awesome, this tablet allows you to utilize almost every media there is; the learning curve was pretty steep, as there is tons of functions throughout. No worries…. There are a plethora learning tools also.

It's everything I ever dream of much and since im an organized person its a much better choice if you don't want to feel cramped in your creative space.

My daughter loves it she ❤ to draw and loves being in this tablet thank you

Works great with Autodesk products, Adobe products, Zbrush, and other main 3D modeling programs.

Alright, so I was able to test drive the Wacom One for a few days now, which gave me plenty of time to play around with the included applications you get with it. First off, the tablet is well built. It's also very large, coming in at over 13 inches. The full color 1080p screen has a nice matte finish and is even textured, so that it feels a bit more like a paper surface instead of a tablet. The pen is solid and feels decent to use. I had no issues setting up the unit, although you'll need a USB port, a second HDMI port and a source of power for this tablet to work. Being this was my first time using a Wacom tablet, I had no idea so many ports were needed, so heads up there. The tablet basically becomes a secondary display on your PC, so be prepared to adjust your monitor's resolution if needed. For instance I have a 1440p monitor, so I had to scale it down if I wanted to see what I was drawing on both the monitor and the tablet. The tablet has 2 legs that give it a nice and comfortable tilt towards you, this helped a lot as initially i was using it laying flat on my desk and that just wasn't ergonomic enough for my liking. On to the applications. You'll get Wacom Bamboo Paper, which is free and all sorts of fun. You can note take, jot down things and just color away on this. Wacom also includes a 3 month subscription to both Clip Studio and Adobe Rush, both of which are definitely not as beginner friendly, so I didn't get a whole lot done in those apps myself. I'm sure a lot of users will love working with their videos in rush and creating content in Clip Studio though. The tablet is a fun experience and as a new Wacom user I didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised with how responsive it was and how much fun I was having just doodling as my desk. This is marketed as an entry level Wacom device, so I'm not sure what pro features are missing, but overall I get the impression that this would suffice for any aspiring digital artist or someone wanting to test the medium out. Pros: Huge area to work with Solid build Responsive tracking Matte screen Cons: Price Resolution is only 1080p

First - let me disclose that I am not an artist. I've always been intrigued by the Wacom tablets, but as I am not an artist I have always been unwilling to drop thousands of dollars on something that I may not find useful. Enter the Wacom One 13.3 Graphics Tablet. When this was announced at CES I knew I had to get one! At under $400 MSRP it's not cheap by any means, but in my short time owning it I can already start to see the possibilities. Set-Up: This part should be easy for most of you. There is a single cable that comes with the tablet that has 4 plugs. A USB-C that plugs into the Wacom, a standard USB power plug that goes into the wall plug, a USB that goes into your computer, and an HDMI port that goes into your computer 'monitor out'. Of course I had to make it difficult on myself - I have an iMac that doesn't have an HDMI output. It does have a display port connection that supports monitor out so I dug in my bin of cables until I found an old display port cable. Of course the cable I found was a display port male to HDMI male and I needed a female port to accept the Wacom cable. Fortunately, I had an extra HDMI switcher handy and I was able to cobble together a connection. To my delight it worked just great! First impressions: I went into this somewhat blind and didn't know what to expect. I was amazed when I turned the Wacom One on for the first time - basically, this this acts as a second monitor for your computer that happens to have a wickedly accurate touchscreen that only works with the pen. In other words, touching the screen with my finger does nothing, but with my pen I can control the entire computer by mirroring my screen to the Wacom. Forget my artistic aspirations! I just made myself immediately more productive with a second monitor! Writing: The first app I opened was OneNote - my note taking app of choice. I use one note on my iPad Pro on the go, and while it's convenient, I've never been super happy with how my handwriting looks with the Apple Pencil. For giggles, I used the Wacom tablet to write out a task list, and then did the same on my iPad Pro using the Apple Pencil. Immediately, I noticed how much more natural the Wacom tablet felt. I was able to feel some texture under my Wacom pen as if I was writing on a piece of paper. On my iPad of course it's like writing on glass, super slick and sometimes difficult to control. I uploaded examples of the two task lists for comparison. I didn't do any adjustments of pen/pencil thickness or anything so it may not be an apples to apples, but you can see that the Wacom tablet (dark screen) had smoother results. Drawing: The tablet came with complimentary art software called Clip Studio for 3 months so I messed around for a few minutes and created the doodle that I uploaded as well. I have to say it was super fun to just try the different brushes and styles and see how accurately I could draw my sketch and paint within the lines. (I definitely need Jason Lee to add depth and shading to give my image more definition) Conclusion: I went into thinking I may have fun tool to expand my creativity. I came away thinking how cool this tablet is as a second monitor (albeit low resolution), adding touchscreen capabilities to my Mac, improved note machine, photo editing tool, and heck - I could even plug this into a ROKU and stream Chasing Amy while I work on other things. All in all I can't say that I wouldn't be able to live without the Wacom One tablet, but I'm definitely going to have a lot more fun with the tablet in my setup!

Disclaimer: I am not a graphic designer by any means, but I enjoy drawing, coloring, and I create content for social media and events at my school. That’s what this tablet is going to be used for, primarily. Right when you open the box, you can tell why Wacom is a leader in graphics tablets. Both the tablet and pen are wrapped securely in this felty paper material. It really gives you that premium feel as you unbox everything. The next thing you notice is the excellent build quality. The tablet and pen both have substance and feel well built in your hands. Other than the tablet and pen, you’ll also find a power adapter and cables, as well as an owner’s manual and clear instructions for setup printed in multiple places on the box. Speaking of setup, it should be easy for anyone buying this tablet. Once you get all the cables attached to the appropriate locations, you simply power on, head to wacom.com/download, and download the latest driver for Mac or Windows. Once this is complete you can create a Wacom account to access and use the Wacom app/ all of Wacom’s online services, including the free software that comes with the device. Once everything is connected and running properly, the Wacom One works as an additional monitor for your computer. Any of the apps you download will download to your computer, not the tablet. You will simply open them and use them on the device. Of the three free programs that come with the tablet (Clip Studio Paint, Adobe Premiere Rush, and Bamboo Paper), I have only downloaded Bamboo Paper as the others are trials only that will require payment after the trial period. I supplemented Bamboo Paper with Sketchbook as it is a free application that works very similarly to Clip Studio Paint. There are plenty of other free drawing services out there, you just need to do a little exploring to find the one(s) that will be best for you. For me, Bamboo Paper is going to work well for note taking, while Sketchbook is going to work well for drawing, coloring, and limited image editing. I used Sketchbook to color in the Pikachu image attached to this review. So far, my experience with using the Wacom One has been great. Using the tablet with the legs extended lifts the screen up to a 19-degree angle and this has been perfect for content creation. The device is plenty bright and using the pen on the display truly does feel like you’re using a real pencil with the right amount of friction. Screen size for my use is perfectly adequate. However, much like others reviewing this device, I would agree with wanting better screen resolution. While 1080p is adequate, it isn’t ideal for fine details when drawing or touching up a picture. I would also really like to see this device with a touch screen and the ability to type. At every turn, I find myself using my fingers to try and navigate around the screen and it obviously doesn’t work. It’s a little unnatural to reach for the pen every time I want to do something. These aren’t huge gripes, obviously, and they don’t detract from the overall use of the device, but I think these things would make it pretty darn near perfect. Some parting tidbits about this device: 1) If you already have a dual monitor PC setup and want to use the Wacom One, it will work as the third monitor. My main monitors use the VGA and HDMI outputs from my graphics card, so this little guy is plugged into my DisplayPort output with an HDMI adapter. It works just fine. 2) Let’s say you’ve been using this thing for a long time or drop the pen and break the nib. Don’t fret. Extra nibs come with the Wacom One, but finding them is a little game of hide and seek. They’re underneath the tablet’s legs. Maybe this is an easy find for people who have used Wacom tablets before, but if not, you’re welcome. My final thoughts on the Wacom One are that it is a fun device to use and it’s also easy to use if you haven’t used a Wacom tablet before. Despite the couple little upgrades I would like to see changed for future iterations of this device, I still think this particular model is well worth the investment.

The Wacom One 13 Pen Display emerges as a standout choice for digital artists and educators, blending functionality with affordability. It is designed for users transitioning from traditional mediums to digital art, as well as for classroom integration. Positives User Experience: Known for its easy setup and intuitive interface, the Wacom One 13 caters to all skill levels. The device ensures a smooth, responsive drawing experience, closely mimicking traditional drawing, which is crucial in educational settings. Pen Technology: Featuring Wacom's battery-free EMR pen technology, the stylus offers uninterrupted drawing with accurate pressure sensitivity and tilt recognition, ideal for detailed art and educational illustrations. Screen Quality: The 13.3-inch matte display reduces glare and eye strain, providing a comfortable visual experience for extended use, beneficial in both art projects and teaching. Compatibility: It supports various operating systems, enhancing its versatility for different educational software and applications. Negatives Connectivity: Initially, a cumbersome three-in-one cable for HDMI, USB, and power made the device less portable and convenient, especially for users with limited ports. Stand Adjustability: The fixed-angle stand may not suit everyone's ergonomic needs, impacting comfort during prolonged use. Accessory Costs: The high cost of additional pens or nibs can be prohibitive for those on tight budgets. The 2023 version introduces notable improvements, including multi-touch capability and a more efficient USB-C connection, addressing previous limitations. These upgrades enhance the Wacom One 13's usability and portability, making it an even more attractive option for creative and educational purposes. The shift to USB-C particularly simplifies setup, further broadening its appeal to artists and educators.

The Wacom One graphics tablet is the first one we ever had - we have nor prior experience in digital art. From that standpoint, it is a really good device for beginners. I think the biggest confusion that people have about it is the tablet aspect - IT IS NOT PORTABLE. It works more like a second screen for your computer. Other than that, once setup is done it's quite easy to understand how things can be done. Summary: Pros: - The screen is matte - Super responsive display - Quite a lot of options to choose from as page layout (papers with scales/graph paper like options etc.) in the Bamboo Paper application - Installation is not that difficult Cons: - Lots of cables that need to be attached (HDMI, Power etc.) - Does not have the natural water color like behavior, so colors do not mix up when you draw (blue +yellow does not make green), which would've been awesome for someone who's starting out I'm also including some images that have been drawn with the table.

First of all, I'm not an artist or a graphic designer and have never had any type of drawing tablet or software before. Regardless, I was really excited about getting this and having some fun with it. Upon unboxing, there are several references regarding how to set this tablet up. Which is nice since you don't have to search for it and it's pretty straightforward. I plugged this in to my MacBook pro, turned it on, and it instantly worked as a second monitor without having to do anything or download any software. The pen didn't work yet, but my workspace was extended into the tablet and worked just like any other external monitor. This is kind of a nice hidden feature for me, as the tablet doesn't take up much space so I could easily lug it around in my backpack with my laptop at the very least have an extra monitor for when I need to work away from my home or office. Getting to the actual setup and downloading the software, I have no complaints at all. It went smooth and with a quick restart of my MacBook worked right away. With all the references on how to set it all up there's not much room for error. Now with using the tablet, there isn't much in the way of printed materials to help with that, but when the software downloaded, screens popped up with all sorts of information including links to short videos showing the basics of using the tablet. As for using the pen, what I like about this tablet over using your other more popular tablets is the screen. It always felt weird trying to draw or use a pen on a smooth glossy screen. The Wacom has more of a matte finish to the screen that just makes drawing on it feel more natural. Also, the screen isn't a true touchscreen, so you need the pen to interact with it. I've seen negative comments about this, but it makes complete sense to me. Since this IS a drawing tablet, you'll want to rest part of your hand on it as you draw, if it was a true touchscreen, that would complicate things. It actually took me a while to realize I can rest my hand on the tablet after using regular touchscreens for so long. Once I got over that though, I couldn't stop doodling. Another small but nice thing about the Wacom One, the built-in legs on the back couldn't have been made better. The tablet stays very sturdy and stable with them extended and really does put it at the perfect angle to use. The biggest con I found is all the wires. Uses an HDMI and a USB plug to your computer, one plug into the tablet (which looks like it should be reversible like a USB-C but actually isn't because of the insulation shape), and the power plug...all in one cable assembly! This kind of limits placement and movement, as well as making a mess on your desktop. Personally I feel a separate power cord would have been better. Overall I really like this drawing table and would recommend it for sure, especially for beginners. Which leads me to my final pro, I have a 5 year old daughter who loves to draw and color and she loves this. Even better, it means less mess with crayons, markers and paper everywhere. So if you have a young budding artist or designer, at the price point of the Wacom One, you can't go wrong with it.

Wacom one. I apologize in advance for the lengthy review, but this device needs to be setup properly before you can start using it. The tablet arrived in an attractive recyclable carton packaging. The tablet itself came inside a fabric protective sleeve as did the pen/stylus. Please note that the cable that attaches to the tablet MUST be inserted so that the cable excess goes to the LEFT or else it won’t work even if the cable fits. Another thing to look for is if you have an all-in-one PC, you might have HDMI in and HDMI out, the tablet definitely needs to be plugged in the HDMI out for the tablet to work. Once all the cables have been properly connected, you have to go to the Wacom website to download the drivers and bundled software. You will have to create a free account to access your software. After your drivers have installed then the tablet has to be setup in your display properties. Under multiple displays, I chose to extend to it and also mirror so that you see all of the desktop content on your tablet. Then you need Bamboo Paper from the Microsoft store. As long as you are connected to the PC, the website recognizes your hardware so that you get full access to the software options. Once all of that is completed then you can start using the tablet to draw/illustrate . The surface of the tablet is of adequate size for most uses but if you are a professional then you might want to consider a larger tablet. The pen has a button which acts as the mouse right button so that you don’t have to put it down to use the mouse and then pick up the pen again. I found this useful when I was “on a roll”. This tablet is pressure sensitive so it’s beautiful to work with if you are adding handwriting because it looks as if you used a fountain pen or writing brush. The pen is of a battery free design so you never have to worry about charging or replacing batteries. It also comes with extra tips in a secret compartment under one of the feet of the tablet. In use, the tablet performs as expected. It has a nice feel and has two feet that can be folded flat if that’s how you prefer. I have tried sketching, drawing and for photoshopping some photos. Everything worked perfectly. Overall I’m very pleased with this tablet but I’m left wondering if it should have a battery and wireless capability... The main reason I deducted a star from my review was because the setup took much longer than I expected and I think some folks will have trouble getting the tablet configured properly.
