Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers consider the Intuos Small a solid starter tablet, praising its realistic pen feel, bundled software, and space‑saving design, while noting the trade‑off of a modest active area and missing advanced features like tilt and multi‑touch. The Bluetooth option and plug‑and‑play USB setup are highlighted as user‑friendly, but the lack of Pro‑level customization and occasional ChromeOS ExpressKey lag are cited as drawbacks.
What Users Say
Everyday users appreciate the tablet’s lightweight build, quick setup, accurate battery‑free pen and the included creative software, often calling it ‘super slim and compact’. Common frustrations revolve around the limited drawing surface on high‑resolution or dual monitors, hand‑eye coordination learning curve, and occasional ExpressKey delays, leading many to suggest a larger model for intensive use.
Common Complaints
Small active area causing mapping issues on large or dual monitors, hand strain during the initial learning phase, need to switch to a mouse for tool selection, and occasional ExpressKey latency on ChromeOS.
