Rhoda Draws is an artist, Corel Painter Master, and author of several books on creating digital art.She has received free tablets from Wacom in the past. Carolyn Dickey was a print designer for a fashion company at the time of our interview.Pressure sensitivity: Many of our experts agreed that the most important feature of a drawing tablet is its pressure sensitivity.The higher the pressure sensitivity, the better you can control the line weight (how thick and opaque the lines are, based on how hard you press down on the tablet with the pen). We found that a minimum of 2,048 levels of pressure sensitivity (pressure sensitivities scale upward in intervals of 512) is plenty.

However, many of our long-term Wirecutter testers have used their tablets for years, and they say an extra $20 was worth paying for double the pressure sensitivity over the course of their artistic development. Compatibility and stability: Although “no one will explicitly ask about the quality of the driver software, they should,” Jim Mortensen said.“It’s super-important.” The driver affects how well the drawing tablet works with your computer, which software the tablet will work with, and the presence and severity of input lag. Drawing tablets in general are glitchy and hard to set up.

In our experience, some of our options and their accompanying software took hours to start operating-we’re here to save you the headache.
