You’ll also find a Kensington security slot for you to either lock up the device and hook it to a bag or desk, or you can attach the provided stylus mount. There are three USB-C ports on the side closest to the Wacom logo two of which support Thunderbolt 3. After traveling around town for a few hours with it in the same backpack used to test the portability of laptops, we noticed a small mark of exposed metal where the chassis’s black coating had been scratched.Īs we had never experienced this issue with laptops or devices using the same backpack, it was a little perplexing, but it’s worth bearing in mind that you might need to invest in an additional form of protection if you like your gadgets to look as good as new. Something we did notice is that despite its otherwise solid build quality it would appear the chassis is easy to damage.

It’s certainly not lightweight but it’s around the same dimensions as some laptop devices so you can easily slip it into most laptop backpacks, which is good because Wacom doesn’t sell a specific bag or carry case for it.

We found this to be a little fussy, but that’s mostly down to how heavy the Mobile Studio Pro is, weighing in at 4.6 pounds (2KG), making it heavier than the M1 MacBook Pro 13-inch (3 pounds / 1.4kg), but placing it at around the same weight of many gaming laptops on the market. That’s a lot of macro capabilities right there, something that will help speed up any creative process.Īlongside the pen, you get a few other accessories alongside the display computer itself: A travel case for the stylus and a simple mount to attach it to the tablet itself are all included, as well as a height-adjustable stand that snaps into the back of the device. That circular button has navigational buttons surrounding it and the middle section doubles as a fingerprint scanner, as well as yet another button in its own right, in this case as a Windows Home key. There are two sets of four buttons across the side of the tablet (that can be rotated depending on your dominant hand or preference) with a circular button between them. Wacom makes very high-quality pens for its range of tablets and this is no different, with 8192 pressure levels and a rubber grip, though you can use other Wacom branded pens with the Mobile Studio Pro if it doesn’t suit your needs. You also get some replacement nibs and some colored rings to customize your stylus if you work in a design team that leaves the pens around so you can recognize yours more easily. The pen is much thicker than the Apple Pencil or Microsoft Surface Pen, but you don’t need to charge the Wacom stylus and if you’re purchasing the Mobile Studio Pro, chances are high that you’ve used a Wacom tablet previously which should help with any adjustment period.

This is the second generation of the Wacom Mobile Studio Pro, providing you with a bright 4K display and a recognizable Wacom stylus. In short, if you do opt for the Wacom Mobile Studio Pro, you get what you pay for.

There’s also the argument that many illustrators these days use an iPad Pro in combination with the Apple Pencil, but this restricts you to using watered down ‘lite’ versions of official applications, or in some cases being unable to use your desired software at all.

Both of these ranges will require you to plug the device into a laptop or desktop though, so another option would be the Huion Kamvas Studio 22, another tablet computer for creatives but this is less powerful and less portable than the Wacom Mobile Studio Pro.

The biggest con is obviously going to be the price, but if you’re just looking for a great graphics display tablet then Wacom also has the Cintiq and Cintiq Pro range (targeting professional creatives) and the more affordable Wacom One series (a great choice for a first display tablet).
