You are done in less than 2 minutes, no matter if you install the Intuos on a Windows PC or a Mac. Just get the right driver from the Wacom website, install it, and connect the Tablet. The whole installation process is extremely fast and uncomplicated. Depending on the region you live in, there are also different colors available. If the tablet is too small for you, then Wacom also offers the bigger ‘medium’ model for 200€ or 200 dollars. The Intuos S costs about 80 dollars or 80€, there is also a Bluetooth model for 20€ or 20 Dollars more. Together with the pen, the tablet weighs only about 240 gram. On the backside, there are four tiny rubber feet, so the tablet won’t slide on a table. The tablet can be connected via a Micro USB Port. The pen offers 4096 pressure levels and is battery-free. It features four programmable express keys at the top of the device. The tablet has a work area of 15.2 x 9.5 cm or 6.0 x 3.7 inch.
The tablet should work with pretty much any old Windows or Mac device, as even Windows 7 and macOS X 10.11 are still listed as compatible on the spec-sheet of the Intuos S. With only an overall size of 20 x 16 cm or 7.87 x 6.3 inches, the tablet is surely one of the smaller tablets out there. The design of the Intuos S is minimalistic and sleek. For all the Wacom experts out there: The pen is the Wacom Pen 4K (LP-1100K) model. Opening the box, we will find the tablet, the battery-free pen, the USB-A to USB-Micro cable as well as a quick starter guide. So let me tell you why this is still the case. This model is no longer the newest on the market with its first release in 2018, but still offers a lot of value for its price and is a great starting point for the world of graphics tablets. I am sure, regular readers of this site may have already seen this device before on here.
