In my place, this is a whopping *50%* pricier than the older Wacom One. At this price point the box should at least include a proper stand and a hotkey remote, or being 14" and including a hotkey remote.

I disagree, an 13 inch FHD touch version of an Espresso display costs $430, while being way more inaccurate with its pen that isn’t included, clearly touch screen with an accurate pen is just going to be expensive, my Huion Kamvas pro 13 costs $300, and that is without touch at all, while having horrible parallax, color accuracy, and line quality with diagonal lines. Just because there are cheaper Chinese versions with the same spec on paper doesn’t not mean they are comparable with a Wacom in places that actually matters for an artist, I’m actually regretting not getting a Wacom one instead.

I thought Wacom had finally understood that every brand needs products in different price ranges, from affordable to expensive. I was really happy when they announced the Wacom one 13" and Cintiq 16. But they are being greedy, making their products crazy expensive again while their quality is going down. Disappointing but not surprising

Wacom is dropping the ball with these. Glad Huion and XP-Pen have stepped their game up to offer alternatives.

Do you mean the garbage Huion alternatives? Because I own one, and I can tell you it's garbage; my huion kamvas pro 13 don't even last 1 year of use and the screen already start to fail due to over heating, the ventilation is none existent, not that the tablet is worth using when it is not broken, the parallax of the cursor is absolutely atrocious. I don't know how this piece of sh*t get rated 4.5 stars on Amazon, $300 for this kind of quality is an absolute scam, especially when the Wacom One is about the same price; I guess people who call themself an "artist" just don't give a sh*t about quality, or taking digital art seriously at all.

@@dpptd30 So much hatred for such a minuscule thing in life... If your tablet was truly less than a year old from purchase(from the official sellers), you could easily claim a repair/replacement. I know quite a few professional artists who make a living out of their creative work, some of them own Huion or XP Pen, never saw them complaining. It is great these other companies come into the market because Wacom has been creating a monopoly for a long time. Their products used to be solid, but always incredibly pricey for what it is really. I've been using countless Wacom devices since I was a teenager, and I had to save up money for a year or so. They were fine, but truly, I don't think what they create is any special compared to other brands. And...quality? The general quality of Wacom went down since their Bamboo line unless you get a Cintiq Pro level of the device. Which sucks, because, again, they got lazy about keeping the quality in the more affordable products. I find that pretty sad and outrageous at the same time.

@@dpptd30 totally happy read your comment. I’m an artist who cares about quality as use. I’m coming from 20 years of using a Wacom Cintiq. And before that Intuos. What would you recommend then? For smaller portable?

I had the previous version of this model, the performance wasn’t bad, but the big amount of wires/cables made it so hard to move from one place to another. I sold it after 6 months, and got myself a base iPad with an Apple Pencil, I didn’t regret of my decision.

Damn you Brad for making sense! I have a Samsung Ultra phone but I just can't draw on the screen, too small. Saw a pen display in a local charity shop and it sparked the idea of being able to hook it up to my phone and focusing on drawing. After going down the rabbit hole of looking at Ugee, XP Pen, Xence and Wacom you have convinced me to just get a tablet!

I'm glad you mentioned the issue with touch gestures when the tablet is connected to a Mac. I think I'll be sticking to my iPad until I'm ready to upgrade to a big boy (so to speak) tablet.

I appreciate the comments about the Samsung Galaxy tablets near the end, because that was my first thought when I learned of the Wacom One 13 Touch price. Screen extension and mirroring isn't always perfect with my Galaxy Tab S7, but I can definitely still work in Photoshop and other drawing apps, and so for a "simple" pen tablet I'm more inclined to go with something like a Wacom Intuos Touch & Pen Tablet, which still gives me drawing capabilities, but also with touch / gestures as an option to turn on and off.

Did buy it ? If you did how was your experience so far?

Dedicated pen display tablets are still 10 years behind mainstream technology I see. Somehow Apple/Microsoft/android tablet manufacturers can put a whole computer and battery in a device thats much lighter and half as thick for a similar price as what Wacom is asking.

what about the wacom one against the huion 13 pro? they are the same price relatively whats the verdict here

Nice honest review! But where did you get that T shirt?

I always disable touch options in drawing apps. When I picked up my Cintiq pro I happily jumped at the no touch version.

Hello sir! So someone else covered this new wacom touch tablet but i did not understood if you receive tablet along the cables and power supply. Or you just get tablet and rest you have to order separately?

I'm curious how well the touch screen works with Blender, particularly in sculpt mode.

5:03 about the HDMI and USB-C is something I need to look into b4 deciding, thanks for the review- I've been leaning toward this but I'm also not adept at drawing direct onto the display screen so I might just opt for more affordable, non-touch, non tablet display type tablet... I think the stand feet look horrible to utilize but maybe they function better than they look

Every professional artist I know always turns the touch off at least while they're working with the pen and then they turn it back on if they use it. For $650 I bought a 2k 24" xp-pen drawing screen display that is laminated but doesn't have touch. The price point on this one seems way off. But great review Brad well rounded and in-depth

Thank you!

100%. At those price points you are far better with a dedicated tablet. The drawing experience is better, and the tablets can also be hooked up to PC or Macs if that’s what you want. A cheap PC and a screen tablet is gonna cost you around a grand, and for that price you already getting a flagship tablet that will run drawing apps far better

Potentially stupid question: I have a Galaxy Tab S6 and I love it. It still works perfectly but it is getting up there in age so I will probably upgrade once the Tab S10 line comes around. Though I’m unsure whether I should upgrade to that, or to that Galaxy 360 Pro laptop (or hell, maybe an iPad if they really end up making a 16” one). The main reason is color calibration. Calibrating the screen on a laptop is easy. Is there any way to do the same on a tablet? Not talking about the sliders in the settings. I mean professionally calibrating it to the same degree you can on a Windows device

im glad to know that this product requires a pc to be able to use it. that wasn't clear to me on the website :)))

I'm just looking for something to replace my aging Wacom Cintiq 13 HD (literally the plastic on it is deteriorating). I wanted something that was compatible with my Staedtler Noris stylus (I prefer the feel of holding a pencil since I came from pencil sketching) and I heard the Wacom One works with it (not the Cintiq ones sadly). I also haven't heard if any of the Huion or XP Pens work with that stylus, so I went with that Wacom One 13.

I'd rather get an iPad for the price. Great review and topic subject. This video helps me to make an educated decision on what beginner drawing tablet to buy.

I'm confused. Do you need to plug the tablet into your computer to use it?

Brad, I was kinda expecting this review to come out this way - so happy I bought the XPPen Artist Pro 16 Gen.2 a few weeks back instead of this (and cheaper!). Happy with the XP-Pen’s pen and appreciating the larger 16:10 and 2.5K screen…

Wacom Cintiq Companion 1 and 2 also are touch screen. They were made before this one. I still love them. Even Wacom mobile studio

i agree.

For about 20 dollars more, or maybe a little less if you're a student, you can buy an iPad mini and a second gen Apple Pencil and be far better off than what I am seeing here. Yeah, the mini is smaller, but the screen is so much better that you can really do a lot of good work in a smaller foot print. Same with the iPad Air--if you're a student, you can get the 10.9" one and the second gen pencil for roughly the same price. If you're not a student, it will cost a little more, but your'e also getting a whole iPad and not just a screen; which, in my opinion, is a fair trade off for the money. For the android side of thing, I can't argue with doing a moderately price S-Tab of some sort. The pens aren't quite as nice as the Apple Pencil, in my experience, but they aren't terrible by any stretch of the imagination. And now that they have the procreate clone app, the one that Brad covered a little while back, it really should be a pretty comparable experience.

Can you get the vivobook s14

does it work with samsung fold5 spen?

The price point is a big head scratcher. Who does Wacom think this is for? It's not an all-in-one so you already have to have a laptop or desktop to run the thing but at that price point you can get a tablet that doesn't need any external device. Doesn't make a lot of sense, but then again, I question a lot of Wacom's recent decisions. Who are they making these devices for?

Rather buy xppen gen 2 16inch

I'm happy I took your advice and picked up a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE on sale for $200+ cheaper last year. I'll pass on anything Wacom at this time since we have very credible alternatives with Samsung, XP-Pen, Huion, etc. at a much more wallet friendly price.

Man i could understand why someone would rather use this for their computers power rather than a tablet but... that price youd be better off with an older model or getting a samsung tab or ipad.

I bought a used surface pro 6 for 400... Its not perfect but the touch is really good and it does the job. + I can use it for other stuff. Wacom need to step up their game

If the Galaxy tabs use the same pen technology as Wacom pens, does that mean we can use a Wacom (non-pro) pen on the Galaxy tabs? Do they perform the same on either? If so, what pens are better, as far as grip, button placement, and such? Should we get a Galaxy tab and a Wacom pen?

After I bought my Tab S6 Lite 22, I bought a Wacom One pen impulsively and it's worth it for me. The S-Pen feels a tad too slim for me, the Wacom One pen has a firmer grip.

So I agree that at this price point or actually this class of device just doesnt make as much sense as they used to especially with ipad and the galaxy tab getting some really good art apps. It's almost to the point that even professional you can do almost all of it on an iPad if you do 2D art. Animation is doable in multiple apps. painting/photoshop is completely doable. Integration with cloud and file sharing is also doable. Even as a 3D artist I can do 60-90% of the creative stuff on an ipad. I can sculpt and get reasonably high poly using nomad. I can retopologize using cozy blanket. And i can texture with procreate. The only thing that I feel like i can't do well on an ipad is clothing, rigging and 3D animation. The problem I have is that I am not sure I would go with the competition. I had some really bad experiences with huion and xp pen. And while everyone says they are good now. I don't feel like i can trust these without trying it. And that is kind of where wacom kind of shines. There are enough places to try them out and see if you actually like it. In my opinion, that is what truly allows huion and xp-pen to keep their prices low. It's not that I don't trust reviewers it's just that with something like a drawing tablet it is very subjective.

At this price you can get last gen Galaxy Tab S7-S8 tablets super cheap and have a much better native experience. If you want to connect it to a PC SuperDisplay is always an option.

My biggest deal-breakers are parallax, line jitter and responsiveness.

iPad n galaxy tab blows this out the water.

$600 😅😅😮 This thing is more expensive than my cintiq 16 that I got for $470. It eliminates the purpose of affordable beginner tablet. Wacom suppose to release Wacom one gen 2 in same price with laminated display and upgrade the Cintiq with touchscreen and higher resolution.

I’d probably pick up a higher end Samsung tablet at that price. I’ve been testing out the older 13 which I got for $180 been a few weeks now and I still just really don’t like it. The non-laminated display and god awful colors (not to mention activation force problems) have my looking up at my computer screen and using it like a normal drawing tablet more than I draw directly on it. Thinking of giving the Kamvas 16 a shot since it’s in the same price range with more features

Unless you absolutely need to use pc programs it would be better to get an ipad pro or galaxy tab which are stand alone devices.

Don’t forget mobile artists, no powere cable!!!!

This is a very poor offer from Wacom for $600 dollars. You’re better off getting a Samsung or an Apple tablet.

I think 13 inch pen monitors are a waste of money. I'm a happy owner of a 13 inch iPad Pro, but it's way more responsive, has a nicer aspect ratio and the sketchboard pro accessory provides nice bezels for resting your hand on. Don't buy a 13" Cintiq!

Budget 13 inch 600$ where 13 inch Ipad with much higher pixel density and can live remote costs used in perfect condition 200-250$. Or for 400-600$ you can buy Galaxy S8..

$600 "budget" pen display. lol
