## Cost

It's in the same price range as Wacom.

## **Build quality**

Rating: very good.

Comparable to Wacom Intuos Pro GEN2.

## **Basic drawing**

Rating: very good.

I forgot I wasn't using a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet.

## **Driver**

Rating: Excellent

Driver UX is very friendly and modern in appearance.

## **Diagonal wobble**

Rating: OK

I did see some wobble at all speeds though it diminished at higher speeds. This amount of wobble could be a bit better for a pro tablet.

You might notice this wobble if you are doing line art or very careful strokes.

You can eliminate this wobble with Smoothing:

* Krita Brush Smoothing
  * **Basic** smoothing was enough to remove it
  * **Weighted** with **Distance** = 130 got rid of it
* **Clip Studio Paint**
  * Stabilization of 50 got rid of it
