Which Wacom Tablet to Buy?

With all the different types of Wacom tablets available, it can be a little confusing to choose which one to buy. I've compiled as much information as I could find from testing and using many of the tablets I review in order to help you decide which tablet is best for you or someone you know!

I’m basing my Wacom tablet reviews on use/needs, features, size and included software. I also offer suggestions based on my experience working with other tablets.

I looked everywhere for the best prices for tablets and I found that Amazon.com is the best place for getting any Wacom tablet if you decide to do so – primarily because they are WAY cheaper on there than most stores. Typically 10% to 20% cheaper than the list price! 

One thing to always keep in mind is size. The dimensions of the entire Wacom tablet as well as the active drawing area. It’s great to have more active area space (I believe the bigger the better) but having owned several in the past, what I’ve learned is that it also comes down to your desk working area and sometimes having something too big may not be practical.

Wacom Cintiq 21UX Tablet / Display – Best of the Wacom tablets. Especially if you prefer the ability to draw on the screen. I believe it is perfect for any graphics pro.

Wacom Cintiq 12WX Tablet / Display – Ideal for a designer who wants to draw directly on the screen, but doesn’t need the power and size of the Cintiq 21UX.

Wacom Intuos4 Pen Tablet – Excellent for a professional designer/artist. Available in five different sizes as well as a wireless version.

Wacom Bamboo Fun Tablet – Great for an artist who has never used a tablet before and seriously wants to make the leap from standard drawing to digital.

Wacom Bamboo Craft Tablet – Perfect for the arts and craft and/or scrapbooker who wants less clutter and is computer literate. Includes some very good software and extras.

Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch Small Tablet – Great for someone who is interested in the same things that the Bamboo Fun offers, but don’t have as much work space and want a cheaper price (usually 50% cheaper than Bamboo Fun).

Wacom Bamboo Pen Tablet – Allows you to be more precise when it comes to editing images, drawing or painting. Includes Corel Painter Essentials which is a good way to get started with digital art. 

Wacom Bamboo Touch Tablet- Very good choice for anyone who wants a simplified tablet. Easy to use and great for basic manipulation of images and documents.
