Wacom Intuos4 L Graphics Tablet
By S Philpott (pixmania.co.uk) Read the full review
I am more than happy with this product. My previous Tablet was an old A6 sized Wacon Graphire. It was barely usable for photo and art working.
Natural feel, Good size, great function keys, good value, The best tablet I have used to date
Felt nibs wear quickly, Cant get a wireless version, I wish that the overall product size was a little smaller

Wacom Intuos4 Pen Tablet review
By Doug Harman (pocket-lint.com)
Anyone familiar with the use of graphics pad or tablet will know the more precise and controlled advantages offered by working on photos or video, say, with the more natural “drawing” interface a tablet allows than the blunt instrument that is a mouse...
Build and new ambidextrous design, easy operation, new Tip Sensor for Grip Pen, LED programmable ExpressKeys and Touch Ring
Only one thing I can find, and that’s (arguably) going to be the price
The new Intuaos4 features and intelligent use of technology updates makes the Intuos4 even better than the already excellent Intuos3. The ambidextrous design, where you swing the tablet by 180-degress and plug it in again and away you go again is such...
Better sensitivity and nicer handling too, makes it (almost literally), simply excellent

Wacom Intuos3 Pen Tablet: A6 Wide review
By Doug Harman (pocket-lint.com)
Using a graphics pad can seem a tad strange at first, but once you've tinkered for a while when editing an image, video clip or graphic, you quickly realise the advantages over a mouse. The Wacom Intuos3 A6 Wide provides excellent support for the...
Build and tablet design, easy operation, new “grippier” pen, ExpressKeys and Touch Strip
Large footprint given tablet’s small active area, price, no mouse
It’s simple to set up and use and, as anyone who’s used a graphics pad will tell you, once you’ve got one there’s no going back
Plus the lack of a mouse is a little frustrating given the price. But I’ll bet there will be a mouse and pen pack out soon. These minor points aside, the Intuos3 A6 Wide is a cool bit of kit to use. ADS BY GOOGLE'// Append each ad to the string.for(i =...

Intuos4 S review
By Nick Spence (pcadvisor.co.uk)
The Intuos4 S is ideal for creatives on the go. It comes with a pen that offers an impressive 2,048 levels of pressure sensitivity along with realistic pen-tilt recognition for precise control.
Wacom again sets the standard other manufacturers must hope to achieve.

Wacom Cintiq 21UX
By Ardjuna Seghers (trustedreviews.com)
With its largest Cintiq graphics tablet, Wacom marries the stylus talents of its award-winning Intuos 4 to a 21in IPS monitor for stunning results.
Similar experience to drawing on paper ; Beautiful IPS display, excellent build ; Matt glass layer doesn't reflect ; Fully and easily adjustable ; Generous, intuitive controls
Expensive ; 1600 x 1200 resolution ; No hardware display profiles/presets ; Heavy
Wacom’s Cintiq 21UX tablet/monitor hybrid is the best digital artist’s tool available, but lacks the appeal of the company's Intuos 4 thanks to its weight, limitations as a screen, and wallet-killing price. It has no rivals, but most will be better off...
If in the future Wacom lowers the price and makes its larger Cintiq more viable as a primary or companion monitor by using a higher-resolution widescreen panel, it will have a winner on its hands.

Wacom Intuos4 Wireless review
By David Howell, (pcadvisor.co.uk)
With wireless working and pro-level features, the Wacom Intuos4 Wireless is the ultimate graphics tablet for general users.
If you already have an Intuos4, the upgrade to Wacom Intuos4 Wireless is worth considering. If you have yet to decide which graphics tablet is for you, look no further.

Wacom Cintiq 21UX review
By Tim Haddock, (pcadvisor.co.uk)
The Apple iPad may be this spring's most talked about touch-sensitive device, but for digital artists, the Wacom Cintiq 21UX interactive pen display still holds the title of top tablet.
Wacom Cintiq 21UX interactive pen display is a dream tool for electronic artists looking to expand their digital palettes. But with a £1,250 inc VAT price tag and a weight of nearly 11kg, many will find it too costly or too bulky to meet their needs.

Wacom Intuos 4 Graphics Tablet review
By greggan (alaTest.co.uk)
As an absolute rookie I decided to get the M sized Wacom Intuos 4 tablet, since so far as my research for advices regarding size pointed me at that direction. I also decided to write my own review in an absolut beginners point of view, and I had that 5 page review published at: http://www.stockholmviews.com/wacom-intuos-4-review/ In short I can say that this new toy/tool is an absolute joy when it comes to work that demands high precision and attention to detail like in critical retouch work, masking and sketching. On the other hand it will not replace the mouse (Not for me at least) when it comes to navigating menus and surfing the web. But I guess that that was not intended either :0) As for choice of size I must say that the advices I got was good and I feel that the M size is more than big enough and gives me control and precision enough on my 20" 1600x1200px res screen. And it will also be more than enough even if I like to upgrade my screen to higher resolution in the future. For work in image editors I give it 5 stars. For built quality and looks I gets 5 stars to. For easiness of use and to learn 3.5 stars. For mouse replacement in common 2 stars. /Stefan

Manufacturer's Description
The Intuos3 Special Edition A5 Wide USB has an active area of 271 x 159 mm. The tablet is roughly the size of a laptop and therefore the ideal portable tablet for professionals. Comes with GripPen, Airbrush and Corel Painter Essentials 3 software. Create natural-looking pen, brush, and eraser strokes. Tilt your input device in either direction and create natural-looking pen, brush, and eraser strokes. With Tool ID each Intuos3 input device can be individually programmed and configured for each application. And these functions are automatically activated as soon as the application starts. The ExpressKeys are a set of buttons located on both sides of the tablet. Assign your favorite keys or macros to these buttons and start to forget your keyboard. The Touch Strip allows you to use your finger directly on the tablet - similar to a laptop touchpad. Zoom in and out within your image with a single sweep of your finger - and if you prefer to stick to the pen, then use it on the Touch Strip too. Absolute Positioning The edge of a mouse pad won't ever stop you again - Wacom tablets allow absolute positioning in which the active area represents your entire monitor screen. Get rid of errors with a flip of your pen. No input device needs a cord or battery - the tablet itself supplies the input device with power. Your Intuos3 pen tablet system installs easily and quickly and is compatible with all your software.
