Quick Time Review: Wacom One 13

PROS:

• Clear display
• Accurate colors
• Good calibration
• Decent pen pressure sensitivity
• Various fine-tuning options in the Wacom Center to get the best performance and compatibility for you
• Acts as a second screen
• Has legs so it can be put at an angle

CONS:

• Can be very tricky to initially set up
• Need an extra or open HDMI port for the screen functionality
• Little to no extra function buttons

IN SUMMARY:

Once getting past the initial set up (I was lucky to have a different kind of cable for my monitor as my graphics card only had one HDMI port) I was super pleased with the performance and ease of use with this product. It could easily be used as a very good lower cost alternative to the Wacom Cintiq. Wacom tends to be top of the line with their digital art tablets and this one is no exception. The pen works very smoothly on the screen with no jumping or lagging. Pressure sensitivity is pretty good, though can be kind of touchy, so it takes some getting used to. There are ways to adjust certain settings and calibration with the Wacom Center. Unlike other tablets, it does not have a whole slew of buttons, which was fine for me, but others may get annoyed if they’re used to using those. Price point is fair for a higher end screened art tablet. If you’re looking to up your digital art game, I would recommend this as an option!
