" ... Big, smooth, and convenient with the buttons and everything. ... "
" ... The other thing I liked about the previous model were the lighted programmable buttons. ... "
" ... It's super sleek, has more customizable buttons, a stand for the stylus, the option to go wireless (!) ... "

" ... I'm a lefty, so I love that I can customize the settings to adjust it. ... "

" ... After 2 years of use, and perhaps a total of 10 times in which I plugged/unplugged the USB cable from my unit, the USB port broke clear off. ... I took apart the device to look inside and see if I could fix it and found that the USB port was held in place by nothing more than 5 microsoldering points and a clip. ... The clip held the USB port in place laterally - but it did not surround the USB port so when you push the cable in, all of that pressure is going directly on 5, half millimeter microsoldering points. ... "

" ... After a year the micro usb connection stopped working. ... "
" ... Old Model Marketed as New: Not Worth the Money & Not Compatible with USB 3.0 or Windows OS Newer than 7 ... "
" ... So why now, in the second week of March, am I experiencing the same problems with the weak USB connector which seems to have plagued Wacom for generations? ... You're telling me that your technology is so brittle that it breaks from simply plugging and unplugging the USB cable? ... "
" ... The port stops charging and being recognized by the computer. ... I first tried other USB cables to see if that was it and it wasn't So I went on a google search and found a plethora of disgruntled customers with this problem. ... "
" ... It got to the state where, after plugging in the usb cord to the tablet, the entire port would come out if I unplugged it! ... Flimsy usb ports seem to be a recurring problem in Wacom technology. ... It's still the best tablet I've owned so far, and poor usb port quality has just become something to be expected of Wacom technology. ... "

" ... Can no longer use a mouse effectively b/c of arthritis and tendonitis. ... "
" ... The cheaper alternative to this tablet has pen pressure that is frustrating while this tablet feels like an extension of my hand. ... I work in an art department and Cintiq's themselves come with pens that do not wear down. ... "
" ... I'm amazed at how responsive it is to even very subtle changes in pressure. ... "
" ... It took her a small amount of adjustment to get accustomed to the different pressure sensitivity, n Once she got the feel for the new tablet, she absolutely loves it. ... "
