I have the medium one since 2016 and it still works like new, it even fell into filthy flood water when my house got flooded back in 2019. So I can assure anyone that this thing is a beast when it comes to durability. The pen also fell a number of times and it's still fine as a kite. However I actually just bought an XP-Pen Artist 16 Pro because I've always wanted to draw directly onto the screen, but my trusty One will always be there if I need it, that's for sure.
Thank you! I've been an traditional artist for my whole life and considered in getting a gaphic tablet but wasn't go all in for an expensive one straight ahead so i've looked into something for beginers (in digital). Your review answered all my questions and I am sure now I'll get one as soon as possible. Great review Devon!
@@tsarmond I actually got a Wacom intuos pro medium for a good price and works great. took some time till I got used to it but no more than 2 weeks. For me it was harder to learn how to use a software dedicated for art. I still to my scratches on paper tho. It's worth it, I assure u.
I have this for months and ut's pretty comfortable to use, I can carry it everywhere even at school. Covering it with plastic cover (as a screen protector) is also good for long quality. 💜
Thanks alot for this much needed review. You won't believe but I was just about to buy this same piece but with confusion, after your video m in much confidence in ordering this one. Thanks man :)
Thank you so much! I was literally today in a store that sells them for 40 dollars, thinking if I should buy it. Your video was very helpful! Thank you
Thank you so much!! I've been wanting to get into digital artwork for a long time but haven't been wanting to buy a huge expensive tablet just for it, so this is perfect. I think it'll take a bit of getting used to for me but I'm excited to learn!!
Needed something to replicate whiteboards for basic diagraming and sketching while working from home, didn't want to break the bank for more art-focused features I don't need. Went with the medium and am happy with it. I know it's not the common use case, but Ubuntu supported it perfectly out of the box, and the Windows/macOS drivers work fine. Thanks for the review!
this is the best review on youtube i have ever seen in my 15 years of being on the website…. im on a budget so i just need to buy one im not worried about having 1000$ one yet cause im just starting…… the thing you mentioned about posture is absolutely vital for me as i get a very sore neck from drawing on my phone and need to create a new habit of sitting up straight…. especially if im going to start putting hours into animating .. but yes thankyou for this video dude you did an awesome job.
Great information. LOVE the way you use positive comments immediately after having to say a little negative comment about the product! Don't lose that wonderful professional and positive character. 😎👍God bless!
I used an aiptek that was huuuge 2003 to 2007. Pressure sensitivity can be big but not as much as I was Obsessed with as a youngling. These tablets are very useful though. I would normally recommend a larger tablet for your bodys health but being able to have a tablet in any state is great.
Hello, thank you very much for your good training. I am from the Middle East and I have learned a lot of training in English and also from American soldiers. 💙
Super nice review, and very accessible from the point of view of someone who doesn't have a tablet (yet) ! Reassured me in my choice, and gave me a clear understanding of why the tablet size might matter
It's great that you leave the link to the Wacom utilities since Wacom doesn't provide the links with the product and, in fact, provides no URLs for utilities, software, or even the required driver, in the tiny (mostly worthless) instruction card in the box. The only instructions in the box tell you how to hook up the USB cable, as if that wasn't self-evident to anyone who has a mobile phone or any USB device at all on their PC. Experienced PC users will be able to search for and install the required drivers and find software to enable them to use the pen (Wacom provides no drivers, utilities, or software with the tablet) but anyone without hardware and driver experience is going to have a hard time starting with the One by Wacom. And what's with the name, One by Wacom, which is a completely different, very low end, product from the Wacom One tablet, which is a drawing tablet with screen and much more high end. The only difference in the name is whether, when using the full name, the word One comes before the word Wacom or if the word One comes after the word Wacom. Before Wacom: budget tablet shown in your video. After Wacom: high-end tablet. Those two names are almost identical which could cause a lot of confusion for anyone, experienced or not, looking for Wacom tablets.
Thanks for this. Great delivery on the information my dude. I've been using a bamboo off and on for the past 10 years or so depending on the work I've done ( I used to do a lot of zbrush work but not so much in the past few years). Well the other day I pulled it off the shelf for some sculpting work I needed to do and found out it's no longer supported, and there was a ton of lag on the input. I'm not new to using a pen tablet, but I certainly don't need a screen to work off of. After your review I think this will do me just fine. Thanks!
Hello. I bought One by Wacom CTL-672 1.5 year ago. Then it cost about 3100 ukrainian hryvnias (about 76 dollars in nowadays). I decided to buy it for drawing and something else, used it for a month and put it aside for about a year. Wanted to sell, but changed my mind. Now I'm trying to somehow learn to draw, but the exams are a bit confusing. Do you think it was worth buying as a first graphics tablet?
tysm for the recommendation! i wont use it for drawing but mostly for rhythm games like soundodger or osu where you have to u use a cursor in order to move the player and using a pen tablet can be really good and use fast movements
I received my One by Wacom today. I have installed it and registered it. I want to use it to draw 2D on Blender but can't get it to work. What settings should I be setting on the pen to get it to work to draw? Cheers
Hey there, thanks for the review. It helped a lot with making my mind up on a certain decision. But there is still a point that you didnt mention. Some graphic tablets divide their work space in half when you use out work phones or tablets. Does this model do the same? (I want to use it with Redme Pad SE)
lower pen pressure sensitivity is not the issue with this tablet. my old tablet had much fever levels (~500) but it was way easier to draw fine, smooth, detailed lines with great tapering of. the newer wacom pens are poorer quality and don't detect low pressure well, apparently the wacom one pens have the same issue. I'd stick to my old tablet but apparently it's impossible to get a working replacement pen, so have to get use to the poor quality new ones.
Maybe no one will answer this but say you draw a circle on the right side of the tablet then you forgot we’re you drew the circle and draw it further away from where you drew it how can you keep ur drawing in the same place without a screen tablet
Hi, I'm considering to buy either huion h1060p or wacom ctl 672 for a beginner like me that is still learning adobe softwares... if u don't mind, can u tell me which one do u think is a better choice?
How's the drawing surface? My biggest problem with the huion stuff is that it's too smooth. Though I have gotten used to it after a while, having even just a bit more friction would be a major convenience for me.
@Noodlerani :3 I've only ever used krita and I've had no software issues whatsoever and I have 2 huion tablets, a small and a medium. Both still work flawlessly after more than a year, my only real nitpick is how smooth the tablet surface is. I've also seen some negative reviews flying around though, so maybe I was just really lucky.
I have lost the pen of the same Wacom CTL 472 tablet now I want to get a separate pen, which pen will be compatible with it please help bcz right now I cant buy it full again
Thanks for this! Do you think a One by Wacom M or an Intuos S is a better purchase? EDIT: My question's no longer relevant, but I'd just like to write that this is literally the best product review I've *ever* seen on this site. And it's under five minutes?!
Can you compare Intuos vs Intuos Pro is terms of perceptible pressure sensitivity? In that whether 4096 vs 8192 actually makes any difference in practice. Maybe even throw in 2048 just to see how it fairs against them. Nice brief overview!
even the most basic tablet is going to be night and day compared to working with a mouse plenty of time to go gangbusters with a top end tablet when you have some experience and know you're going to get good use out of it i have the One by Wacom and have never felt the need for anything bigger/better/more expensive
Bought a One by Wacom Medium for $85.00 prime shipping between 4 am and 8 am the next day. Mine came at 5:45 am just in case someone is interested in knowing.
Bought this for note taking + cheap, was working the first time i had used it on my lenovo laptop w windows 11 but now the device isnt even showing up when i plug it into the usb, and its not showing up on wacom center. ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, restarting them + my laptop multiple times to try and get this thing to work again but nothing is working. if anyone has any tips for getting this to work again please let me know, i hope i havent wasted my $
How about Velocity, Direction, and Bearing . Do these expressions work? Or is it pressure sensitive ONLY? I can't see these working on Corel Painter 2023.
Hi. I know it's an old video but maybe you will be able to help me out. I've got One by Wacom and in the Wacom center I can see features like screen keys, radial menu, precision mode etc. The problem is... there is no option to actually map those features to the buttons on my pen. When I go to the mapping settings these features are just not there to choose :(
And the biggest problem with the One by Wacom, and I have no reason to think it would be any different for any other Wacom product but who knows, is that the documentation is worthless. No documentation at all, beyond hooking up a USB cable, in the package, and online documentation is virtually worthless.
When i draw a line upwards, on the screen the stroke of the line is downwards and when i draw a line downwards, on the screen the line is upwards. Is this how this works?
im left handed but i turn my paper if writing or drawing 90 degrees to the right to stop ink smudging and not being able to see my fluency. does this remain in its fixed position or orientate to where iv turned it

Thanks for this man no BS straight to the point honest review.
Wrong. I’m watching this video not to get my first drawing tablet but to support an old friend 🤓
New phone who dis
Ahaha but thanks 🥺

By the way, if you’re struggling with pressure sensitivity, go to mapping and turn off “use windows ink”. Hope it helps 😊
Great information. LOVE the way you use positive comments immediately after having to say a little negative comment about the product! Don't lose that wonderful professional and positive character. 😎👍God bless!

thank you so much for this video! it was straight to the point, organized and informative i appreciate it :)

Hello there :) Thank you for the chill review. It was simple and informative, without any unnecessary information. BR❄
The One might not have all the fancy features but being a simple lightweight tablet makes it much more user friendly.
This really helps, as I'm getting a drawing tablet, and don't have much money.
