Review

Graphics tablets can take a little getting used to, but they are ideal for anyone who finds it difficult to use a pointing device but who can control a pen or pencil.

They are also the best option if you are serious about creating art on a computer but have a slightly reduced pen grip.

The software included allows you to control the amount of pressure needed to activate the pen, making it ideal for those artists with weaker muscle strength.
