I am a beginner (and hobby) artist, and after recently binge-watching an artist Youtuber who used a tablet, I was inspired to finally get my own and experience drawing digitally (before this tablet I drew with paper/pencil, and played around with drawing apps on my iPhone).Pros:- Portable/lightweight- Battery-free pen- Cheap- Easy Set-Up- Great sensitivity/pen-pressureCons:- Somewhat confusing directions and error message (?)- Long cord- Small active area- Finicky buttons- Heats up laptopTLDR: Amazing product with very few flaws (no major/deal-breaker issues). Perfect for beginners or hobby artists that just want to dabble with digital art, but aren't wanting a huge investment.I'll talk about the cons first: When I very first read the directions, I was a bit confused since it said to install the driver first (with the tablet plugged in ), but in another step, it said to plug the tablet in later (or after you had already installed the driver). I've never used a tablet and didn't want to mess anything up so I panicked a bit and wasn't sure what to do. When I finally did the driver installed and the tablet plugged in, I was greeted with an error message: "key cannot be identified." Panic ensued again and I had no idea what to do and there was no FAQ or already-asked help question to assist me. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but even after the error message (which never really got resolved btw), my tablet still worked! Huzzah.The cord was a little long for my needs (it's about 54 inches). This is a small thing to be a "con", but the cord might get in the way or just be messy (I've kept it wrapped up), but I know it's something that some people may not like. Moving on, the tablet itself has a small active area (for anyone who doesn't know, the active area is simply the part of the tablet that registers the pen and when you can draw on). Granted this is supposed to be a small and portable tablet, so this is something you should expect, it may need some getting used to. I was able to adjust quite quickly to the small area and didn't find it to be too much of a hindrance. The thing that really bugged me was the buttons on the pen. First of all, they don't work all the time? Or you'll activate one (and your tool will turn into an eraser) but if you try to press that same button again, it stays as an eraser and won't switch back unless you keep trying to press the button a few more times. There have already been multiple times where I accidentally press a button and it messes up what I'm trying to do. I've gotten used to where the buttons are now and try to just avoid pressing them, or I'll test it out and just hope it doesn't go whacky on me.The last con was that my laptop was heating up while I was using the tablet and trying to draw. It was nothing serious and it never overheated or got to the point where I had to shut everything down, but it did worry me a little bit. Perhaps it's because I'm using a laptop and not a desktop/computer, but either way, be careful and just check in periodically with whatever device you're using so that it won't overheat or get ruined.Now for the pros! I was very impressed with how lightweight, yet durable it was! In fact, I was a little scared to press too hard with my pen for fear that I'd scratch or hurt the tablet. But that's not the case, it works really well and is a perfect size for if you want to travel or even put it in your purse/bag. The battery-free pen is also a huge plus! My main concerns with have a pen that DID require charging/batteries was that I'd overcharge it or forget to charge it or it'd be too big etc etc, but with this pen, I don't need to worry about that, so it's one less thing off my mind and of things to do!Honestly, the price of this tablet was one of the main things that drew me in. I'm a beginner artist who likes to draw in my free time, and even though I really liked the look and would probably have an easier time with say a display tablet, that really wasn't in my price range, nor would I be using it for professional work. I enjoyed all the features of this tablet, and the price was just right for someone who wanted to test the waters with digital art using a tablet, so I'm glad I found this one. Despite what I said in the cons (about confusing instructions and the one stray error message), the set up was relatively easy. All I had to do was install the driver from their website, plug in the tablet, and I was good to go. I'm sure that if I wanted to toggle the buttons (if that's possible?) or add on other features, it'd be more work, but as far as immediately getting set up, it probably took less than 3 minutes.The final pro is the pen pressure sensitivity! I'm used to drawing by hand, so I was worried my digital lines would look sloppy, too thick, uneven, etc, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the sensitivity works amazingly. There was an adjustment period where I was drawing too sensitively and it didn't pick up the lines/what I was doing, but that was easy to adjust and get used to.Overall I'm very impressed with this little tablet and am in love with it. I don't regret buying it and hope that I can make some really amazing art in the future!

The S640 is a wonderful tablet. I’d even consider traveling with it. I’ve only had it for 3 days but I’ve been charmed by how functional and useful it is. I’m not gonna lie, I was put off a little at first by how small it was. I definitely don’t feel that way anymore.It’s been awhile since I’ve used a graphics tablet (approximately a year and a half) because I got an iPad. While the iPad is good for on the go, the price is insanely higher. I got my iPad many years after using a few different graphic tablets. So, what I’m trying to say is, while I do enjoy my iPad, I also really enjoy this tablet. It’s super smooth to draw on, the pen is really nice and it’s super quick to install!Would I suggest this tablet? To put it simply, yes, I would. To all levels of artists. It’s cheap, great quality and it’s very portable. The only thing I personally have a small issue with is that the cord isn’t removable. The tablet is affordable enough to by another one if something happens to the cord though. The shipping was pretty fast for me and I ended up getting it around noon or so two days after I ordered it.I also wanted to add, I really like how sleek the design of the tablet is. The pen is also really nice to hold. Anyway, thank you for reading my review and I hope that you’ll give this tablet a chance. ^^

I bought it to see if it met my needs to make new digital art as a beginner, but this tablet is great start for a very low price of $25. Good for anyone wanting to start doing entry level digital art than most Wacom products I've used in the past.*Pros*- Minimal, yet sleek design. Great to travel.- Responsive at most times.- Compatible with Photoshop and other image software.- Connectivity through USB 2.0 attached to the tablet is very nice with full functionality. Works with any desktop whether it's prebuilt or custom made and laptops. (Remember to install the driver for this tablet in Admin Mode.)-Pen feels fluid, and a bit relaxing to draw strokes depending how fast I can go.*Cons*Be aware of annoying jitters if you install the driver normally without Admin Mode. They will distract the drawing further. Always make sure that it's ran in admin mode to alleviate that problem. It happened to me once on my first S640 as I didn't know what I was doing, but my second one worked well with very little to almost no jitters doing this method.- Slight issue with the squeaking sound emitted from the tip of the pen to the surface of the S640. It was bothersome a bit, but I bear with it due to how many strokes I draw.**Overall**I think the S640 is a great choice for beginners looking to draw digital art for the first time or those who want to transition from physical art and having to scan which saves time. Despite its very small and portable size, $25 is a good price that is fully worth what you get. If anyone is looking to buy a cheap drawing tablet, then this is for you as I recommend it.
