Hello, and thank you for inquiring about the rotation sensitivity of the Wacom Pro Pen Slim. While the Wacom Pro Pen Slim lacks rotation sensitivity, it does have up to /- pressure sensitivity. For pencil-like shading performance, tilt the device 60 degrees and apply pressure at 8K levels. Hopefully, this has provided you with the information you require.
Thank you for reaching out to us with your query. Wacom Cintiq 21UX does not work with our Wacom Pro Pen Slim (KP301E00DZ). Our KP501E2 and KP503E pens will work with the Wacom Cintiq 21UX. I hope this information is useful.
The Wacom One and the Pro pen Slim are not compatible.
Selected User Reviews For Wacom Pro Pen Slim (KP301E00DZ)
This is an amazing pen. On the Mobilestudio Pro, it runs smoothly and buttery. It's a nice change from the standard Pro Pen because it's almost as thin as a ballpoint pen (which I happen to enjoy drawing with). It takes some fiddling with the pen sensitivity settings to get the pressure just right (moving the curve toward the top left worked for me), just like my original Pro Pen 2 did when I first got it out of the box. It's fantastic once you've discovered your pressure sweet spot. br>br>The tube case is the only thing that is stupid. It appears to be in good condition, but it is absurd that you cannot place it anywhere without it rolling around. But, hey, it's not like it's a major problem.
I have a Wacom Mobile Studio Pro with the fat pen that comes with it. br>I'm not a professional artist; I'm just a guy who likes to draw and was able to afford a high-end device. br>I despised the fat pen. I'm embarrassed to admit that for the first year or so, I didn't use the drawing tablet much. It was mostly the pen that was to blame. I despised it to the point of abhorrence. Even though I don't have small hands, that thing was enormous, and I could never get used to it. I've had this skinny, "normal-looking" woman in my life ever since I bought her. I've spent a lot more time on my tablet since I got a "medium-sized" pen. br>br>Here's the bottom line: If you can afford a high-end Wacom device, you can afford a nice pen to go with it. Only FIFTY PERCENT of the equation is accounted for by the tablet. The OTHER FIFTY PERCENT is the pen. Isn't it "Pen & Paper"? If your pen is bad, even the best tablet won't help you much. If you don't care for the fat pen, this one is a good alternative. It's supposed to be less sensitive to pressure than the fat pen, but I can't tell.
This is a fantastic pen. I bought it to replace the regular pen that comes with the Wacom Cintiq Pro line; I have a Cintiq Pro 24 and it works great right out of the box. It came with spare nibs and a protective case, which I really like. Having extra nibs on hand is always a good idea. hand. br>br>In the description, it says which products it works with and which it doesn't. The slim version works with everything that the Wacom Pro Pen 2 does. As stated in the description, it will not work with older Cintiq and Intuos tablets. I'm not sure why people order this pen and then complain that it doesn't work when the description explicitly states that it does.
I had recently purchased a Galaxy Tab S7 and was enamored with the device's slim profile. Pen. I looked around to see if Wacom had a similar offering after getting spoiled by that small profile, and to my surprise, they did! br>br>Works in the same way as the Cintiq 22's big boi, but is more comfortable for me to use. However, don't expect it to fit into the Cintiq's small pouch on the side. It just slips by. Whatever the case comes with, it'll suffice for me.
It will change the way you hold a pen, and, as other customers have said, there is a learning curve. I've tried adjusting the grip several times because it feels too light in my hand and the buttons are flying away. To add more weight, I tied a hair tie around the opposite tip. I'm hoping to get used to it, or else I'll go back to my old pen.
Since receiving the Wacom Classic Pen for use on my Intuos 4 and 1st gen Intuos Pro, I've found that I prefer sketching with the Classic Pen over the Grip or Pro pens. On the standard "pack-and-go" grips, I appreciate the fuller, "comfortable" grips. When I'm just doodling around, however, I prefer to use a lighter pen. br>br>However, there are a couple of things I wish were different. br>br>I'm used to rolling the phone slightly and pressing the side buttons with my thumb. Because the buttons on the Pro Pen Slim are "flatter" and have less travel, it's sometimes difficult to feel like I'm getting a good button press (if that makes sense). When I squeeze the button, I sometimes have doubts about whether or not I'm actually "triggering" it. It doesn't take long to adjust, but it's something I've noticed because I like having the back/side buttons set to pan/scroll and I use them frequently. I think I'd like this pen more if the actual piece of plastic that makes up the button protruded just a tad more, making it more obvious that my thumb was hovering over a button. Hopefully, the attached photo demonstrates how much "flatter" the buttons on my Pro Pen Slim were than on my Classic Pen. br>br>I think I prefer the shape of the older "Classic Pen" as well. Again, I'm sure I'll grow to like the straight shape of this pen; I guess it's just that I'm used to the shape of my favorite old pen (this isn't a knock on the shape, just a comment). br>br>However, this pen stylus continues to be one of my favorites. I like the regular shape of these tablets as well, but only for different purposes. Before I got my PTH860, I bought this pen as a backup.
" To be honest, I think my dislike of it led me to use the tablet a lot less, and then I misplaced the damn fat pen, couldn't find it anywhere, and I needed it to finish a software project that required the use of the tablet. I was hesitant to spend the money, but I needed to meet a deadline, so I did so. br>br>Of course, I discovered the dreaded fat pen (as it is now officially known; Thank you, Matthew) shortly after this one arrived, but I no longer use it. This one is perfect for me, and I've been using it almost every day since I got it. Even though I have large hands, something about this stylus feels just right. br>br>Thank you to all of the reviewers who encouraged me to invest in a second stylus because it was well worth the money. If you're still not convinced, read Matthew's review; his logic is impeccable.
In comparison to the standard Wacom Pen, the Wacom Pro Pen Slim has a slim, lightweight design. blowing. In terms of weight and size, it feels more like holding a pencil than the standard Wacom Pen's thick or wide pen design. The Wacom Pro Pen Slim is a favorite of my daughter's. I can certainly see why after using the Wacom Pro Pen Slim for a few strokes. It's incredibly responsive and light, and it's well worth the money.
