The Wacom Bamboo Tablet is a compact and small A6 tablet that is made by the popular Wacom company that is famous for their high-quality tablets and it is perfect if you are just getting into the world of tablets, if you are on a limited budget or if you want a portable travel tablet.

The Bamboo makes it easy to get into tablets and it also looks good at the desk as well in a nice matte black finish. The pen is pretty comfortable although if you have used one of the Intous pens you will not find the grip as good as the pen grip is much smaller.

It has got four buttons that are programable to any keystroke or action however it is a downer that they didn’t make the option to program the buttons depending on the application, so that you could have had different keystrokes programmed depending on the application you have open!

In the end the Wacom Bamboo is a nice tablet that is easy to use and will probably suit most users that won’t need a larger size. It works well even when a widescreen screen is mapped to it despite it being in the 4:3 aspect ratio. I’d recommend this tablet to anyone that is either getting into tablets/are on a tight budget or need a compact travel tablet. Once you enter the world of tablets, you won’t be going back to the mouse.
