What are /r/wacom's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

It has a micro usb connector. Basically any ps4/Xbox/kindle/etc cable works.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite USB Cable - Micro USB https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A976GAC

In my case I have a usb c connector on the other end so I can use it on my Mac without adapters.

I have both a Cintiq Pro 16 and the current generation of the 12.9 iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. I got the Cintiq first and used it constantly before I got the iPad. Then I got the iPad and the Cintiq mostly goes unused these days unless I need to specifically use Photoshop or Illustrator.

The Apple Pencil is decidedly a better drawing experience than the Pro Pen 2 on the Cintiq. It's more accurate, has absolutely no parallax, requires no calibration, it has a more intuitive pressure response curve, and the feel of the stylus point on the screen is better (this one point is more subjective, but is how I feel about it).

On top of that, the iPad's touch gestures are second to none. Pinch zoom and rotate works flawlessly 99% of the time in every drawing app I've used. On the Cintiq sometimes I have a great run and it works really well and then some days it's just total crap and all but useless. You also do not have to fret about drivers at all. Drivers can be a nightmare with the Cintiq.

Then on top of all of that, the new Cintiqs are certainly pretty light and slim but there is no way I would ever set one up in a coffee shop. It would be kind of absurd with the cintiq, your laptop, the cables and power adapters, etc. The iPad on the other hand I have taken with me everywhere. Used it for hours on cross country flights. Used it sitting in a park. In bed, on the bus, etc etc. It's got a great battery life, is a self contained computing device, and it's cheaper than the Cintiq. It is easily my favorite digital art device I have ever used.

The app I use most often is called Procreate. I super love it. They've done an amazing job of distilling the app down to just what you need and no clutter or over complicated BS. It's also only about $20.

All of the illustration work on this page up until you get to the happy taco was stuff I did on the iPad with Procreate...

wow, great work!

you could realistically use either, but a clear graphic style tends to lend itself to vector art software like illustrator

also, cheap plug for Affinity Photo (Photoshop alternative) and Affinity Designer (Illustrator alternative) which are two fantastic and much lower cost alternatives ($50 each and both have free trials) to Adobe's subscription-only scheme ($20/month forever for Illustrator)

there's also Photopea which is a free (ad supported) online Photoshop alternative that is very good you can try out

good luck

what i would suggest is to fetch your product key via prodkey http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/product_cd_key_viewer.html then boot off a usb if you want to go that route.

Ive restored many times due to wanting to keep my wacom product in tact but having a fresh install. I havent tried a complete format since a clean restore will bring all my wacom drivers to default and such. im not too sure if youll run into problems if you do a format.

Clip Studio Paint may not be free, but it is immensely cheap for what it does. It easily competes with Photoshop in terms of being a drawing/painting program, and has features that at least CS4 did not have (I can't comment on more recent versions). It's also a program you buy outright, not some BS you're shelling out a monthly sub for.

The Pro version is only $50, and often times goes on sale for half that. That's a steal for what you're getting.

And of course there is a free trial so you can check it out before buying it.

I found a solution: Visit this link after creating an account, just follow the instuctions! Enjoy! though i prefer the drawing software Krita because it looks better and for me it functions better!

Hope this helps bro!

More info about my case, my friends tablet broke and we bet the tablet that I could fix it. If I can fix it I get to keep it. The connection tabs on the USB port on the main board were completely disconnected. So it’s totally completely wireless now. The wireless bits are a little finicky. I have to push the USB on my computer just the right way to get it to connect

An adjustable laptop stand might fit your needs pretty well. I have a cheap one like that for my laptop (similar to this one), but it'd totally be strong enough to hod a tablet to draw on, and I imagine most stands would be the same. Just make sure you find one that is able to be set at the angle and height that you want.

I believe it’s this:

wishacc Book Stand XL-Large Size 15.4" x 11.0" Main Board-Adjustable Foldable Book Holder with Page Holder Clips - Holds Cookbooks, Receipe Books, Textbooks, Tablets, Laptops, Music Books, Documents https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0897TDWH9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_BSl.FbRKR6JM6?psc=1

Can confirm it’s fantastic (and comes in several sizes).

That really sucks, sorry about your issues.

As far as the stand goes, there are plenty of good alternatives. I got this one and it works absolutely perfect for the 16", and its extremely easy to carry.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0016LKWLO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Also to anyone else buying a MSP, maybe Amazon would be a better alternative? Just not having to deal with Wacom seems like a plus, plus they have accident protection plans

I bought the Amazon Basics stand, which I haven't seen mentioned around here. It works great and was really cheap.

Wacom has tablet cases. For 16" tablets you should buy the Large Soft Tablet Case (Amazon US, Wacom)

I have this case and would recommend it.

I do not have that model so can't help with whether it's working correctly or not, but you should know that what you posted as a result for a pen is not a pen but a pack of replacement nibs. I'd like to stress to you that the pen is not an accessory, it is the most expensive part of the kit. I don't like to be the bearer of bad news, but a pen is likely going to run about what buying a new, beginner tablet would. Maybe someone else here can help you out. A big problem now is that since win10 came out most everything older than an Intuos 3 is no longer supported. If you can't source a pen your best bet may be to find the cheapest thing on Ebay that is still supported as I think you can probably get something complete for $25 or so, maybe cheaper. Good luck!

After some digging it looks like this might be the pen you need (and the only other one I found was in Ireland at about the same price but with $25 shipping) and it's actually cheaper than I expected but I'm not 100% sure. I also didn't think that model had touch functionality, again, unsure.

I don't think you can do it with Wacom's drivers.

If you're comfortable with some simple script programming you could use something like AutoHotKey. Here's an autohotkey script example of switching between two keys.

the included colour profile is actually great.

for cheap calibration buy the base spyder and use open source software https://displaycal.net/ (the spyders are all the same puck, the price is based on the software included)

get a cheap could be a second hand calibrator even without a software like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ColorEyes-Spyder-3-Elite-Display-Color-Calibration-for-Monitors-w-Stand/182884153158?hash=item2a94beb746:g:6qEAAOSwy0JaAfBH

you can use this free great software https://displaycal.net or any other to do a perfect calibration!

Probably, it may be able to mirror in different resolution/ specified window / specified screen area by using monitor control software (but, cannot assure)

- UltraMon - Mirror screen with different resolution, duplicate specific window

https://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/tour/mirroring.asp

Leonardo is pretty good for sketches and technical drawings. It has an infinite canvas that means you never run out of canvas space and a lot of Line modes that help with lines, circles, perspective etc.

Full disclosure: I have developed Leonardo myself :)

If I were you, I'd go purchase Affinity Photo instead. It is almost exactly like Photoshop with some bonuses. No subscription, costs only $50, and it has a amazing community around it.

I found a solution: Visit this link after creating an account, just follow the instuctions! Enjoy! though i prefer the drawing software Krita because it looks better and for me it functions better!

hmm, it can be 90 degrees too! you see, there are about 15 different angle options. but if it's all about being a monitor, something similar to what you sent is more logical.

people mostly use ergo arms for monitor-purposes, amazon basic arm is a cheap example. or a tv-stand. the best bet is boom

You can search for Thunderbolt cables on Amazon.com The brand of the cable shouldn't be a big deal as long as the cord is Thunderbolt compatible and not just a USC cord.

If you want a name brand one, Apple has one for $40:

https://www.amazon.com/Apple-Thunderbolt-cable-2-0-m/dp/B00YHUBV6Q/

If not, maybe you could get someone to 3D print the button at least and see if you couldn't get a piece of foam and use that to make a grip?

On my oldest Wacom, it was a graphire 4, I ended up making a grip out of one of those pencil foam grips because the rubber one fell apart from so much use.

They didn't last long, but they were cheap enough to buy several, and kind of had to make a pattern out of one, where the button went.

Are you sure this is true? I was planning on upgrading my cintiq to a newer model and there are so many complaints about the 22 screen or it’s coating getting scratched from the pen.

u/Merck3ns I found this from someone who scratched their 22 from normal use

This is just my guess that KP-501E2 is compatible with DTK-2100. If wrong, pls. forgive me.

• Wacom Tech Corp. KP501E2 Intuos4/Cintiq21 Grip Pen (See 2nd product image)

~~DTZ~~ DTK-2100 has stylus status indicator at the left side of power button. This indicator emits blue light if pen tip is on the screen or pen side button is pressed when the Cintiq is showing screen properly and USB connection is OK. How does the indicator work?

EDIT: correct model name

Hey! Just a bit of an update, so I actually instead got a VESA mount made for laptops/tablets just to give it a shot. Can update you tomorrow on how sturdy/well it works if you'd like. Hoping I can screw it tight enough so that it doesn't move when in use.

Yes, I can confirm the LX (rather, the Amazon Basics equivalent) is perfectly capable of supporting the Pro 24. It doesn't have that extra bit of articulation on the end that the official Wacom one has, but unless you need to angle the tablet almost prone, then you won't miss it.

The Amazon Basics arm that I use with my Pro 24.

Hi.

I think you can cover pen tablet with a kind of thin plastic board like this. EMR pen tablets can work through a thin (<1mm) insulator plate. Thick sketch paper (like this) is also usable.

Cut them to adjust the size of your pen tablet and fix with tape.

I think it's these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0027ZT50C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1

I have a pack here and it says they're compatible with "LP1100 Wacom Pen 4K" which seems to be the pen for your tablet.

DisplayPort you can split, but not standard on computers. You can try a USB monitor adapter for your display and use the Cintiq on your HDMI port. Something like this ... https://www.amazon.com/USB-to-HDMI-Multi-Monitor-Adapter/dp/B071LTB65F . ( be careful. You are not looking for a DisplayPort over USB cable.. that is a different technology. You want a USB monitor adapter to HDMI. ) It is not a perfect solution because, but it is better than what you are doing with the HDMI splitter.

Ohh! I thought this was one of the screw cap, Pro pens. Like this guy or this one . If you can’t get the nib out, try contacting Wacom and see if they’ll send you another pen.

I use these and I just cut the thumb and first two fingers off. Comes with 4 so if you accidentally lose one, you have more! I also saw this on Amazon if you want something a little fancier. Hope this helps!

They are once again showing up if you do a search such as https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-DTHW1620H-Mobile-Studio-Windows/dp/B01M2X7882/

At least now they are showing as temporarily unavailable.

I have one on order from Amazon but doubtful its shipping today. As of 4pm CST still no credit card charged and my order still shows as not shipped.

Anything except the Draw. The Art, Photo, 3D, and Comic are all the exact same thing; the only differences are what kind of software they come bundles with and what sizes the actual tablets are. The small sizes are good for portable note-taking, while the mediums have twice as much writing space (less scrolling and more compact handwriting on screen).

Just weigh what software sounds the most fun to toy with in your free time vs the costs of the devices.

For promotional information, here's the official webpage for the products and here's an Amazon link where at the time of this writing, the Art small is the cheapest at at $80. The small ones are $80-95 while the mediums are about $190.

Each device has a small handful of extras, but the largest bonuses are as follows:

Just received my other Mini DP cable, it doesn't work. Just some more wasted money...

Thought to get a good one, on their website it says good for 4K 4096 x 2160 à 5,4Gbit/s x 4 canaux @ 60Hz (tant que la source vidéo dispose d'une prise DisplayPort, et PAS Mini-DisplayPort). On the Amazon site it says good for resolutions up to 2560 x 1600. I'm confused, but will most likely return this piece of unfinished whatever tablet. http://www.lindy.fr/Cable-Mini-DisplayPort-CROMO-05m.htm?websale8=ld0101.ld030103&amp;pi=41540&amp;ci=8001

Such a joke from Wacom to not state anything about compatibility and the NOT 4K supported link.

Sorry, but I feel fooled as a customer. Asking them how to return it, they don't bother to reply... I'm still curious to hear how you guys deal with it, in the meantime I'm curious for Dell releasing a smaller "Canvas", may be more interesting.

I got a generic laptop arm on Amazon that works pretty well for my 13.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0057GJ2II/

The only modification I made was to stick the Cintiq to the tray with some double-sided tape that you use for hanging pictures on walls (3M command strips). Prevents me from bumping the thing off accidentally and destroying $1000 worth of electronics. And should peel off without residue should the need arise.

Yeah, I'm not sure what else you can do. I was just looking at the product on Amazon and it doesn't look like you're alone, based on the lower rated reviews, it looks like it happened on a small number of tablets.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075WSRLC6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_-xVrAb8AYS2F5

I'm crossing my fingers for you, I hope you can get some support from the company and not have to wait much longer to get it working.

If you're good with the size, then you could do well with it, the 24-inches model will likely be similar, but with a larger screen (I could be wrong with that).

Also, there's a discount on the 16-inches model right now on Amazon:- https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-DTH1620K0-Cintiq-Graphic-Tablet/dp/B06VSTT8J8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1515172190&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=cintiq+pro+16

The small Pro model would have better features, but these are largely aimed at industry professionals.

The IntuosPro Medium is about $315 USD on the Wacom Store, but it's currently unavailable. You could wait a while to see if it gets restocked.

However, it IS currently available on Amazon for about $350 USD. If you can afford it - this is the model you should be opting for.(If you're going to buy a Pro model, that is) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MQU5LW7/ref=twister_B01MZ76OWQ

You are right! I checked amazon to look for a better alternative anyway which is: (Artisul Freestyle Stand - Drawing Tablet Stand for Artisul D13, D10, iPad Pro and Wacom Cintiq) [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019GCXGGW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_JUBSAbP332VQK]

Jeeze, it only took me 20 minutes of searching LOL. Much harder than I thought, but I found it from my amazon history.

I don't know if this will work, the plugs look slightly different. I'll see if I can find a closer match.

You don't need the Link Plus for 4K, all you need is a better mini displayport cable. The one that ships with the Cintiq uses displayport 1.1a, but a 1.2 cable (like this one from Amazon) will work just fine with 4K.

*Only if your computer can output 4K over its mini displayport output.

There's a couple threads about it already, but the short version is that your only solution is to get the Wacom Link. If you don't have a miniDP port but DO have a full size DP, then you can get this cable from Amazon and it will support full 4K resolution. (The included cable will only allow for 1080p because reasons.)

The cable you linked won't work, unfortunately, because the USB Type C needs to pass both video and USB input data, which it can't do over standard DisplayPort. (I believe, however, that cable could be used to hook an external monitor to the MSP.)

If you ran out of the nibs in the back of the tablet they sell nibs on Amazon.

These are ones I bought and they are great.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005KB8H7M/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_orFSCbW34WBXN

Well, with the Cintiq pro 16, I used a Startech HDMI to DisplayPort converter in which I plugged a DisplayPort to MiniDisplayPort cable. Now I got a Wacom Link Plus which has a HDMi port, you could try getting that one, Edit: I just saw it on Amazon it doesn't work with the MobileStudio Pro. Although there are cables and other adapters, you could try looking up Wacom Support pages, they should have that kind of information, so you don't go blindly.

If your on that tight a budget, i would say get a huion tablet, their smaller tablets (That are actually quite decent) are 20-30 USD only.

I got my Huion H640P for just 50 USD on amazon, shop around. Also XP-pen has decent tablets i hear as well. Also cheap.

You are better off using your iMac or iPhone for color correction as Apple obsession for color accuracy is second to none.

https://www.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_11_pro_max-review-1991p3.php

In this site you can find iPhone reviews. In the lab tests page you'll find the display analysis.

https://www.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_11_pro_max-review-1991p3.php

"The display on the iPhone 11 Pro Max has an excellent color accuracy - we measured an average DeltaE of 2.4 and a maximum deviation of 5 against sRGB. The screen on the iPhone 11 Pro is even more accurate against sRGB as we measured average deltaE of 1.6 and maximum deviation of 2.3. The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max fully support DCI-P3 and they automatically switch to this gamma when DCI-P3 content is sent to the screen.

And the amazing thing is that these displays get to keep such a level of accuracy even while you are lowering the brightness all the way down to 1.9 nits."

If you get the 24, you don't need to get Wacom's ergo stand or the flex arm. You just need their VESA mount, then you can buy a monitor arm on Amazon or somewhere else, which should be cheaper. Iirc, according to r/buildapcsales, the Amazon basics arm is a good choice because it's from the same manufacturer of Ergotron's arms, which is a good brand.

For my Pro 16, I use this stand. I don't use the built-in legs because I don't want be hunched over my desk. And I think the screen size is just fine, although I wouldn't say no to a bigger screen.

Don’t listen to the other dude! Yes, you can. You just need an adapter like this:

https://www.amazon.com/GUSSLM-Transmitter-Streaming-Smartphone-Projector/dp/B09V4DY61T

I don’t know if the 22 uses HDMI or DVI, but you can get an adapter either way.

I have a similar setup with a smaller cintiq on an ergotron arm. I mounted the secondary monitor and laptop on one of these combo mounts from amazon. I figured I would not move the second monitor that much, so no need for a second ergotron arm. So far it works great and gives me all the flexibility I need. The second monitor is right behind and on top of the cintiq, and the laptop is off to the right.

Sure "atFolix Glasfolie" this should be the glossy one https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07P5F28RF?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Avoid the antiglare version: I tried it, too, and it felt like sandpaper. Also it made the screen blurry and dim.

Is it this? Mannn $28. :(

ah ok, then I would pick up an Display to HDMI adapter. This one from Amazon looks like it works with a Cintiq 16:

"Used this to connect a Wacom Cintiq 16 drawing pad to a desktop that has a Displayport connection with no HDMI input slots. Works great."

Amazon Link

I found my old Intuos 4 mouse zc-100-02 (this model https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Intuos3-Five-button-Mouse-mouse/dp/B0006698TW)

And tried it with my two Wacom Intuos Pro Large PTH-860 tablets. Neither tablet reacted to it at all. The Wacom driver didn't even recognize the mouse existed.

This is the type of texture sheet I'm talking about in my post, just pick the corresponding size for your tablet and it fits, no need for cutting. The solution suggested in the top comment is a paperlike protector, I didn't end up testing if this fits my Intuos M without cutting since I'm still using the regular rough paper method myself.

the USB is just data (updates, pen location, etc) so it shouldn't be as difficult as picking an HDMI. Any highly rated cable should work just fine.

I’d recommend the Intous Medium (2019) which has the Bluetooth, newer, better sensitivity levels like the Intuos Pro and is cheaper right now.

https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Wireless-Software-Included-CTL6100WLK0/dp/B079NWPZTG/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?crid=1XPOABY714KAK&amp;keywords=intuos&amp;qid=1661805676&amp;sprefix=intuos%2Caps%2C190&amp;sr=8-4

I literally use this very laptop stand for my Cintiq Pro 16.

I don’t have that specific device, but I ended up getting a “gaming bag” for expensive laptops for the Mobile Studio. Those backpacks usually have tons of compartments specifically for computer peripherals and are made to house and carry expensive hardware.

Different companies make them in hardcase and reinforced canvas.

I have this one, but you could get away with a much smaller one, and I’m sure all the brands are similar.

Just search B&H for gaming or laptop backpacks/bags. They usually only carry reputable stuff.

There's this one Intuos Pro Medium from 2013 I found on Amazon. Should I purchase it? https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Intuos-Tablet-Medium-PTH651/dp/B00EN27SHY/ref=sr\_1\_3?crid=24SO0SJHXN73Q&amp;keywords=wacom+intuos+pro+medium+pth651&amp;qid=1656868278&amp;sprefix=wacom+intuos+pro+medium+pth%2Caps%2C362&amp;sr=8-3

So you recommend something around the 25lb weight limit?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00358RFJ8/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza Something like this would be good for a wall mount then?

the switch charger is way lower the amount that the mobile pro needed- 30w to like the 100w the MSP needs - check this out - id try a real power supply before i spent too much money elsewhere

I got a Wacom One a while ago for 40€, which is pretty good for a wacom imo. It works really well and I've never had a problem with it.

It's slightly more expensive on Amazon than when I got it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wacom-CTL-672-N-Medium-Creative-Tablet/dp/B07HFGCP63/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=wacom+one&amp;qid=1655707582&amp;sr=8-3

I’d go with another Ergotron arm or a similar product! As it stands the feet that are built are too small and don’t raise the tablet to a high enough angle. When not in use, the tablet lays flat, but it’s not on a sturdy stand which is something I miss with my old 22HD and I don’t think Wacom’s Ergo stand allows your tablet to lie flat while being supported. I use an ergo arm for my Cintiq 24 Pro(the one I linked) and I’m debating going for an ergotron, as it seems more flexible than what I have. Hope that helps!

I am using this and am very happy: https://xournalpp.github.io/

But think again about taking notes with a tablet. If you want to do it during class, laptop + tablet will take up quite some space. I see a lot of people who use "iPad like" tablets or these laptops that have a touchscreen and that seems to work pretty well. Just something to keep in mind.

I strongly recommend this one:

It can raise your tablet to whichever height you want, tilt it and even has space for the keyboard below. It is super sturdy, so it won't fall on itself or wobble. Can place it away in a drawer in two seconds.

I have the 16" and used these for both of them:

this one is good if you need some height

and this one if you don't

No complaints.

Honestly it seems like Wacom is having as many issues as any other tablet makers these days. Seems like every day there are more and more posts in this sub about the various driver or hardware issues people are having with their Wacom hardware.

My advice would be try whichever one you feel like trying. If the XP Pen one is cheaper there isn't really any downside to trying it. If it works, great. Otherwise you should be able to determine pretty quick it's not for you and go for the Wacom One.

I do like the Wacom One display, but I also got mine used off E-Bay for a fraction of the price because I didn't want to pay the price of it new, especially when you can get other devices like the Huion or XP-Pen offerings for cheaper. I've not had any issues with the One. My one complaint is the screen is a bit on the dim side. My brother has a Huion Kamvas 13 and hasn't had any troubles with it.

If you're in the US it looks like the One is on sale for $350 on both Wacom's site and Amazon. And there is some available currently on Amazon Warehouse as well for about $200. But yeah... just choose one and give it a shot, see what you think, and go from there :)

They aren't hard to find. All it takes it searching for it by name on Amazon.

"Wacom One pen nibs". https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Nibs-ACK24501Z-Creative-Display/dp/B084DVNS1X/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=2G4L72O5JPYXA&amp;keywords=Wacom+One+pen+nibs&amp;qid=1651237631&amp;sprefix=wacom+one+pen+nibs%2Caps%2C115&amp;sr=8-3

The nibs for the Steadler are literally on the product page as one of the product options. https://www.amazon.com/STAEDTLER-22-1-digital-compatibility-purchase/dp/B07QZ3XZ4Y/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=1CJPGYARJ98MP&amp;keywords=staedtler%2Bnoris%2Bdigital%2Bpen%2Bnib&amp;qid=1651237741&amp;sprefix=steadler%2Bno%2Caps%2C174&amp;sr=8-3&amp;th=1&...

For example, this end (the white plastic) looks much larger and I dont believe it would fit into the tablet. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01GGKYF9Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_MTT6C1NGQCZ0V07XGT1B?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1

At first it was no different than before, though it became less slippery with time thanks to all thoes micro scratches. I'm using Normal 15.6 inch screen guard it was irritating on laptop screen hence i decided to peel off and put it on graphic tablet, lol never regretted. Here's the sample screen guard I'm using here's how it looks on tablet

Just a quick question! Do you think something as simple as this might be sufficient?

Put it in a 13 inch laptop bag/cover?

I also forgot to mention that even though I use a PC and not a laptop, I had the same only 1 HDMI port problem. What I did was I bought an HDMI splitter (1 in 2 out) so I can have both my monitor and tablet on.

Unfortunately there’s a lot of cords behind my computer, but they don’t actually get in the way, it’s just more of an eyesore.

Power wise is fine. But it didn't have a HDMI 2.0 port, just a 1.4 it looks like. I think the HDMI 2.0 requirement is used for the 4k.

This does though: https://www.amazon.it/Acer-SF314-43-R7ZF-Portatile-Notebook-Processore/dp/B09B25YX9P/ref=mp_s_a_1_18?crid=2102BA7AJ486E&amp;keywords=hdmi+2.0+Ryzen+rtx&amp;qid=1648942877&amp;sprefix=hdmi+2.0+ryzen+rtx%2Caps%2C210&amp;sr=8-18

How do you see this one?

This is the clear one I bought and still enjoy a lot:

Given the crazily exaggerating descriptions that also vary in every language it is hard to say if it is the same You found. But my guess is yes. If true, the second, matte one is the same model I tried and threw away right after. With it the screen became a blurry mess, and also as a drawing surface it had waay too much tooth for my taste.

I think its this one:

Graphics Tablets here in the U.S. start at $33 on Amazon.

Wacom starts at $39 and $99.

I gave up on trying to do art on the computer but still have a tablet for each of my computers because they are handy things to have. That $39 Wacom would be perfect for lots of odd things like photo retouching and some PDF markups and signatures.

From my personal point of view, I would never trade my Prismacolor Pencils for even the best Wacom graphics monitor.

Get him the $39 small Wacom, he will find use for it and it is still enough to do art with though how far he takes it is up to him.

I use this one. Great customization and scroll wheel. Occasionally it doesn't detect when you're switching between programs, but all I need to do is click on the program icon down in the taskbar and the remote will switch to the configuration you have for that program.

Another option is the Clip Studio Tabmate, but I don't have personal experience with that one.

Other options I use are custom macropads/keyboards like this one which can be cheaper, but these require assembly and maybe writing a few lines of code to change what the knob does.

I use the glossy one, they make a matte one too I think.

You either need an adapter like this https://smile.amazon.com/Benfei-Bidirectional-Female-Adapter-Gold-Plated/dp/B07CXY79KR/ref=mp_s_a_1_10?crid=1M87RD6E77AYJ&amp;keywords=hdmi+to+dvi+cable&amp;qid=1647317374&amp;sprefix=hdmi+to+d%2Caps%2C103&amp;sr=8-10

Or a cable like this https://smile.amazon.com/Amazon-Basics-Adapter-Cable-1-Pack/dp/B014I8UQJY/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=1M87RD6E77AYJ&amp;keywords=hdmi+to+dvi+cable&amp;qid=1647317476&amp;sprefix=hdmi+to+d%2Caps%2C103&amp;sr=8-3

Personally since they cost about the same I would get the cable over the adapter. But that's just me. I hate needing to plug in more things than I absolutely need to.

USB should be good to just plug in.

Are there any all in one cable for this type of tablet? I saw on Amazon that there is this Wacom Link but i can't see if theres my model in it ( https://www.amazon.it/dp/B07F67JQQG/ref=cm\_sw\_r\_tw\_dp\_91KYY6DY080ZZ96KE0EZ )

~~Thank you for your reply btw i really dont want to buy a new one ;u;~~

Someone mentioned the grip pen below and I concur if you're looking for something heavier and way more cushioned. They've gone down in price too, it seems. The art pen is another option. That's certainly the largest one that I've personally held, and I have stupid big hands. Hope you find what you're looking for!

ACK20001 for a bit less... I have no idea why the prices are so high in Canada. I'm guessing something to do with shipping or tariffs?

As regards 3rd party nibs, I have never had an issue, but I've seen people complain that they've received nibs that were a little too large (which you can sand or acetone down), too small (really nothing practical you can do), or which were not smooth (again, sanding or acetone can work).

ACK20001 - 5 for $5

ACK22211 - 10 for $.852

You can get even cheaper on Wish, EBay, and Alibaba, but they're generally third-party nibs that may or may not fit quite right (although I've had no issue getting 20 ACK20001 at a time for about $4).

You only need this! https://www.amazon.com/Moread-DisplayPort-Gold-Plated-Converter-Compatible/dp/B07KRXWVWG

&#x200B;

remove the splitter you're using (you don't need it) then plug your TV into that HDMI connection.

Get a Display Port adapter (like the one in the above link) and plug your Wacom One into that.

In Windows, go into your 'Display settings' and under "Multiple displays" select "Duplicate these displays"

Done!

You can also choose to "extend these displays" allowing you to run YouTube on one screen, while you draw on another!

:)

I'll update this pose in just a bit with a helpful graphic

I think so, double checking from my older Amazon orders it was actually a USB-A to USB-C extension cable, this one. It worked fine with my 22HD–– tbh I'm not sure why my 22HD suddenly didn't like hubs that would connect to either my thunderbolt dock or even directly to my Macbook. Could be something to do with the M1 chips, could be because the tech and cables in the 22" are older, or both. My 16" works perfect with them though it's weird.

Thanks, but I live in Canada so I have to use the Amazon Canada prices. Does that mean I'll have to pay an inflated price for these nibs?

I understand there are also third-party nibs, but what would be the setbacks with them?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but if it is any consolation you are not alone in your sadness. Those of us with Intuos Pro (myself included) share in that sadness :(

I'll probably cave and get a working Wacom One display at some point... probably a used but functional one off of ebay or something like that. I'm fighting it... I just got a broken one off eBay for like $50 to see if I can fix it because I don't want to pay $400 for a new one.

&#x200B;

Huion also has some tablets that work with phones if you wanna look into them. This one is a good example, and only $34USD: https://www.amazon.com/Inspiroy-H640P-Graphics-Battery-Free-Sensitivity/dp/B075T6MTJX

&#x200B;

It's no Intuos Pro, but it's probably better than finger drawing :)

Hola! No hablo español pero estoy usando el traductor de google, ¿es este el modelo del que hablas? Google no devolvió resultados para el modelo en su publicación. https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Graphire4-6x8-Tablet-CTE640S/dp/B000BBE9DM

Bought this last week and it works well. (If yours has a vesa mount). If not you can buy vesa adapters to make it work.

I have a wacom intuous and it uses this pen (or I think i have the old version, should be the same though): boop

I hope this helps, you can get replacement nibs by just searching “wacom intuous pen replacement nibs” or something similar

it has a matte layer but not really a good, protective, easily replaceble one. I recommend you to buy a screen protector, most loved one is HealingShield
