Buyer beware.2
I'll start by saying this tablet is very basic, and if basic is all you need you can't beat the price. Be forewarned, though, the manual included is very ...lackluster & in broken english. Also, good luck with finding a website, manufacturer phone number, or address where you can write to. Don't lose the program disc, or buy one of these that's missing the disc.
I can draw with this tablet in Corel 9, but I don't have any of the pressure sensitivity. I think the instructions try to tell me as much since I'm using XP, but it's hard to tell. No sensitivity with Windows Paint, either. But I know the function does actually work, since I can get sensitivity results in the programs own test-box, but that's it.
Good Enough4
I have been using this tablet for two years now, which I originally bought on ebay. It is beginning to get worn out and may need replacement, so I'm assuming a 2-3 year average life span on this product because I do use it rather often.
This was the first tablet I ever owned; purchased because of the low price, and it has been just fine for me. I use it on a laptop with Windows XP and Photoshop7 and despite a few quirks and occasional minor glitches it functions just fine. I had no trouble with drivers or software.
In using the product I've discovered a few quirks in working with it.
* Pressure sensitivity only works if the device is plugged in before the program you wish to use is started.
* Cannot start the computer with the device plugged in, must plug in after start up is complete.
* Pressure sensitivity can stop if the tablet is left plugged in but unused for too long, although I have not experienced this for a few months now.
* Recently, occasionally the tablet will stop recognizing the pen while working on something, but a quick tap to the keyboard will fix this. May just be a result of being old.
As this is the only tablet I have ever used I cannot compare it to more expensive brands, but I find that it works just fine for me. I use it exclusively for drawing on Photoshop7. Writing functions in Microsoft Word seem to work, but I have only tried once or twice.
Great Value (if you can get it working) 2
I just got this tablet cuz I can't afford a Wacom. I haven't been able to get it to work yet...
**UPDATE - I got it working! See update in comments section. I would also give it 4 stars now that I've figured out my driver issues.**
This product is very low quality (which is why they can sell it so cheaply) and from the reviews and forums on other websites, it seems like about half of the units that are shipped are lemons. Many report that it works flawlessly out of the box. In particular people using MacOSX or Windows Vista seem to have a lot of problems but then again some others who use those operating systems said that it works like a charm. It seems to be either 1)problems with the pen not working or 2)crappy driver software. Put that together with almost non-existant customer service (the company is in China) makes it a huge risk to purchase this. I wish I would have saved for a real Wacom. You get what you pay for...
FYI, Here's a description of my own personal issues:
I'm using a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.4.11. I've tried both the 1.23 and 1.24 drivers for MacOSX but nothing doesn't work. The weird thing is that it actually responds to the pen and all the lights light up when I put the pen on the tablet or push one of the buttons. But the cursor is always stuck in the lower right corner of the screen and no matter what I do I can't get it to leave that corner. If I use my mouse to move the cursor to the middle of the screen, as soon as I hover the pen over the tablet the cursor moves immediately to the lower right corner.
