PTH-660-N Intuos Pro Pen Tablet (Size: M)/Medium Professional Graphic Tablet Including Wacom Pro Pen 2 Stylus with Replacement Tips/Compatible with Windows and Apple, Black

I'm a little longer in the tooth and was wary of moving away from a keyboard and mouse to this tablet but since using it, I've found it to be extremely good. It does take a bit of getting used to and I haven't quite got comfortable with using the switch on the pen, in place of clicking the mouse but more use will hopefully put that right. I was torn between a medium size table and the small but after reading that quite a few people were cutting down the active area on a medium tablet, I opted for the small and it's proved, so far, to be a good choice as far as photo editing goes. I've even reduced the active area on the small tablet and it's been fine. However, if you are an illustrator, it may be a different call and I would suggest reading reviews from artists to see which size would be good for you. The setup was fairly straightforward, the tablet was recognised straight away and took me through the setup, which was a little confusing to begin with but some careful reading, it all became clear(ish) and it updated via the wacom website, I haven't yet designated too many functions but what I have works well for me and I'm enjoying the more accurate way of editing, you have much more control over what you want and where you want and it's a lot quicker. I've altered the sensitivity of the pen, which helped to control the movements and stopped me selecting things I didn't want to. Going back to the mouse for other tasks is odd, it feels enormous and heavy after using the pen. Overal, it's been a good purchase. The pen does take a bit of getting used to but it's definitely worth persevering with. Don't expect it to go completely smoothly to begin with and you'll be fine. I forgot to mention that a lot of the reviews I looked at before buying, said that the surface of the tablet was slightly rough and caused the nibs to wear down very quickly. When I got the tablet, it was wrapped in a thin plastic film, which I cut a small hole in to allow the power lead to be connected but left the rest of the film in place, which gives a nice smooth surface for the pen to run over. So far, the nib hasn't visibly worn, so the film will stay on.

I've used a variety of drawing devices with and without screens and I've found myself preferring screen-less drawing tablets mainly for posture and ease of setup. I've found the Intuos Pro L to be the best device I can use in terms of my own needs although it isn't necessarily leap years ahead of the competitors. MAIN POINTS + Large drawing area with a nice drawing texture + The drawing area can be replaced so you won't have to replace the entire thing if that specific part feels worn out + Driver seemed to work without issue for me on Windows +/- Extra space on the side alongside buttons, I don't use the buttons at all but nice to have for some people +/- Includes the Pro Pen 2, although this is standard in most high end Wacom products and the Pro Pen 3 exists now - They don't sell the smooth texture anymore, so you're stuck with the standard or extra rough textures if you want a replacement (and the standard/rough texture obviously eats up nibs faster) - Bluetooth does not seem to function reliably, although I do not really use it as it plugged in to my PC at all times TEXTURE ISSUES It is true that the default texture is going to eat up nibs like crazy depending on how hard you press it and I really do wish they still sold the smooth texture, but it does seem to be a sacrifice for a more paper-like drawing surface which feels a lot nicer than a smooth surface. Nibs are prohibitively more expensive than they should be (because it's Wacom), but at this price point you probably won't be worrying too much about buying replacement nibs to have a nicer drawing surface. COMPETITORS Pen tablets are already simple enough that it is extremely hard to justify this price point for someone who isn't looking for an end-all-be-all pen tablet. If you are looking at getting your first drawing tablet I wouldn't get this and would just settle for a normal Intuos, a Huion/XP Pen Intuos Pro equivalent, or the One by Wacom instead. At this price point you could probably buy a larger sized display tablet from Huion or XP PEN (such as the Huion Kamvas Pro 16) instead if you think having a screen might suit you better.

I use a wacom tablet every day for work and it varies between intuos pro models and intuos 4. I do everything with a tablet and it replaces my mouse for 95% of the tasks I do. I had an old cintiq 12wx at home previously but as i do morr 3D work than 2D now, for a number of years I just used the cintiq as a regular tablet without the screen function but the screen had no texture and was too slippy and was getting outdated so I went for this model. Like all wacoms, its really great and i cant imagine working without one but it doesnt come without its annoyances. The texture sheet is really rough.. so went from polar opposites, and takes a while to get used to the default but it is much nicer than slippy glass. It does wear down the nib fast though. Software is still a big issue. Sometimes the drivers just stop working properly or something interferes with it which is very annoying. WINDOWS still insists on making the experience of using a tablet really bad by default, so still need to turn off flicks, press and hold for right click and the rubbish visual effects (but to be fair, theyre windows issues) I would suggest turning off windows ink in the Pen > Mapping section of the settings and create a seperate mapping for just photoshop with windows ink turned on because otherwise pressure sensitivity doesnt work.. but if you leave it on for all, other programs dont work correctly. It is also a little expensive. Its a professional tool so pays for itself, but still feels a little pricey. The new pen and pen holder are very nice. The overall slimmed down size is really useful too and it looks great. All-in-all, great but not perfect. UPDATE: A few days ago in the heavy rain, it turns out that the seal around my whole window seal leaks really badly. What poured through the window and down the back of my desk. I thought I had dealt with this, but 3 days later, I pull the tablet out and find that it's been sitting in a puddle of water for 3 days..... Devastated I quickly cleaned it all up... Works perfectly. Super happy with it.

Fantastic product with a wide variety of uses. The software included was easy to understand and having had this connected up for nearly a year now I would highly recommend it. Compatibility wise, it worked flawlessly with Windows 10 and now since I upgraded, Windows 11 and I had no problem with the drivers. The pen and feel of the tablet is very natural, the drawing area size was excellent and for functionality it's perfect. The side button being extremely useful for quick access to functions. Although this product has now been overtaken by a newer version, this is a stand up product from a company where I would return to and purchase again if needed on a different laptop.

I bought the Wacom Intuos Pro Large to help me revise and relearn maths. I've never liked the idea of wasting tons of paper and wanted something digital. My reMarkable though great, isn't big enough and a whiteboard in my living room is not practical. When the device arrived, I thought I'd made a mistake with the size. The large is big, about as long as a full-sized keyboard and about double the width. But, I quickly discovered that the large is perfect for my needs. The Intuos Pro is also full of great features. It works both wired and wireless (using Bluetooth). It's function buttons are convenient as is its intuitive software. Merely touching a function button brings up a visual display to remind you what the button does. The pen is also great. No batteries to charge, eraser on the top, and it moves the mouse cursor when hovering just above the tablet. The touch capabilities are excellent as well with multi-touch and gesture support. While there is a small learning curve, mainly to set it up, I was up and running in minutes. Worth every penny.

At the time of typing this, I'd been drawing for about 6+ hours today (my arm aches, man...) and was still listening to music. This is a pretty long one so settle in. (Screenshots are from Photoshop CC 2017 and ArtRage) THIS IS A REVIEW FOR THE MEDIUM REGULAR TABLET. And if you're looking for a review containing this tablet's supposed built-in wireless capabilities, don't read onward because that noise is foreign to me. Haven't attempted it, don't plan to, but good luck if ya do. First off, my basic computer specs to be fair. I'm on a home gaming setup running an Intel Core i5 CPU, a GTX 1070 graphics card, 64-bit Win10, with an SSD alongside a 2TB hard-drive, so I'm pretty good for having both Photoshop and Minecraft (both very CPU and memory intensive programs) coexist peacefully. I'd always recommend a decent computer for graphics tablets, and this one is no exception. Now, the size. SLIGHTLY smaller than the Medium from the previous rather clunky Intuos Pro line (the current Intuos Pro small is from that same line, FYI), but the actual workspace is about the same. It's also allot thinner than previous iterations, so it's essentially perfect for sitting on my tiny desk among my giant PC and monitor. Fits tons better, so much so that I can have the keyboard on my desk at the same time. (Makes things about 200x more efficient) I'm not someone who uses the express keys or the little touch ring (or any touch features, really) but... they're there, I guess? They don't hinder me this time around, another perk of keyboard off lap. What's great in terms of the tablet's hardware is the tablet end of the USB cord - it's more like a laptop charger head, and so doesn't get jiggled about much, stays holstered nice and firmly compared to previous Wacom models. The new Wacom Pro Pen 2, man. It comes with a holder-slash-nib-case with an extremely helpful diagram on how to change nibs, good job on that. Ah, and SO RESPONSIVE! I only use the buttons for ArtRage so far but the pen itself is a marvel. Holds really nicely (and doesn't have a major doosey when I flip it to recenter it in my hand), pretty much NO LAG and the whole thing runs great even after a couple hours use. When looking for a new tablet (of which I usually buy a basic £50-100 Wacom model, as I have over 10 years), it was a choice between this and the Wacom Cintiq13HD. At first it was because of various bad reviews on the Cintiq and the need to keep some money behind for the Nintendo Switch, but now I can say without a doubt this was the worthy purchase. And I pre-ordered that Switch too!

Fantastic tablet, downloading the drivers on Windows 10 was easy - you just go to Wacoms website and search for the latest drivers. I upgraded from the previous model Intuos Pro S - I had it for years and to this day it's still an awesome tablet, but I felt the need to upgrade as there are vast improvements in this model. The only qualm I have with these kinds of tablets is that the tiny edges can get filled of dirt quite quickly - especially if you eat at your desk. The crevices are easy to be filled with that kind of stuff. I occassionaly clean my tablet, if anything gets under there I'll use a tiny needle to get rid of anything wedged inside. Another thing is that the texture of the surface was quite rough, this can result in your pen nibs wearing down more quickly compared to a smooth surface. The default surface they send seems to be rough which is annoying, they have 3 types of texture sheets: smooth, standard and rough. You can find these on their website - I purchased the standard and it feels way better. A test card is included so you can feel what the different textures feel like. I think this is a sneaky tactic by Wacom, they'll know most people won't like a rough surface - not the end of the world but considering texture sheets are around £30 (depending on the size of your tablet, larger sheets are more expensive) they know they can get more money from this. It should have been a standard texture sheet, but unfortunately - not the case. Aside from those minor issues, it's a step forward in terms of specifications. I've noticed the difference in levels of pressure sensitivity from my last Wacom tablet which had only 2048. The new pen is also comfortable and has an elegant new pen holder/stand that holds the nibs inside, which I love. Changing the texture sheet was easy to do, and it was delivered very quickly - I ordered it from the Wacom store. I've had no driver issues thus far, I have had problems with Wacom drivers in the past - they're not perfect but they've certainly improved quite a bit. Simple to set up, and easy to use. I'd recommend this tablet for professional artists, but if you feel like splashing out - go for it. Wacom are stingy with their prices, but I do believe 'you pay for what you get for'. If you can't afford a screen tablet then this is the next best thing.

Got my first Wacom tablet 1999. Lasted me until 2013. Then I upgraded to a Wacom Intuos pro medium. I have used that until now. Both my 2 previous tablets were for digital art and graphic design. Pretty much in use every day over that time. So do swear by Wacom. After using the medium for so long this feels very different. Bigger and build quality excellent. Have to get used to more space on the tablet again like it was on the first one. Got a good deal on it. Damaged box but contents were new and unused and in pristine condition. Very happy with this. Know Wacom Cintiq's are a thing but I've never used one. Going with what I know and with what I have a proven track record with and trust. Hopefully as with the last two. There will be a good few years of use in this one. A few things in using for 2 days. Setting up the Bluetooth was not straight forward. It wasn't just plug and play. Had to buy an Bluetooth adaptor and look through a few forums to get it working. This involved going into "services.msc" by typing that in the search. When that comes up resetting the Wacom Professional Service driver. Then deleting the pen in the Wacom Tablet properties and then just touching tablet again to make it work. So be aware of that. Lastly nibs. I think over the course of ten years I only changed the nib twice on the Medium 2013 pro. And I am a heavy tablet user. Line art. Digital painting. Two days in and that nib has worn down quite a bit. Other than that it's fantastic to work on.

Ik had eerst geprobeerd met een tekenpen en een tablet om te tekenen, maar met deze tekentablet gaat het veel beter, (bijna) net zo goed als met potlood en papier.

Merhbalar ben bir profesyonel heykeltraşım. Wacom a geçmeye klarar verip bu cihazı satın aldım. Zbrushta rkelamlarında çıkmasına rağmen doğru düzgün çalışmıyor. Kaleminde bağlantı hatası olduğunu düşünüyorum. Çzim yaptığımız alanında konforu sıfır onuda öğrendim nedenini uçların hızlı bitmesi için pütürlü yapmışlar bu yüzden çizim konforu çok kötü. Baskı hassasiyeti dediğim gibi ürün veeya kaleminden kaynaklı olabilir. Ben bu yüzden iade etmek istedim ve malesef ilk kullanımda çizim alanında bir çizgi oluştu bu yüzden iade red edildi. Düşünün 6bin tlden fazla para veriyoruz kaliteli sorun yaşamağız diyerek sağlamdır diye o kadar paraya kıyıyoruz am cihazda sorun var kaleminde sorun var gibisinden bişey düşünülmüyo direk red edildi diyor. Programda düzgün çalışmıyor, yarım saat kullanımda çizim alanı çiziliyor ve bu ürün 6bin tlden fazla. Ben denedim pişman oldum üründe elimde kaldı kullanamıyorum. ALmayı düşünüyorsanız kesinlikle deneyeceğiniz yerlerden almaya çalışın.

Super produit pour le développement photo.

I regret I didn’t get it before, it’s perfect, the size is just great for me, wouldn’t wish bigger. Cannot imagine my work without it now. Even with Bluetooth it works perfectly well.

Aucun problème au niveau de la tablette, par contre le stylet est défectueux un soucis de détection pression et jeu au niveau du bouton. J’ai fait le test avec mon deuxième stylet et là aucun problème.
