My primary complaints deal with the rattling sounds the buttons make and the seemingly cheap feel of the plastic that was used. The Bamboo’s build quality isn’t as solid as I would like it to be, but I have a hard time believing it would break down. The artistic styling fits perfect with the market Wacom’s trying to appeal to, considering they’re pushing it for people who want something that recreational and personal use. The box shows the tablet sitting on a green background with doodles and a text backdrop. Wacom put a lot of effort into the packaging for the Bamboo plus with the new refresh.
Sure, most people could do without tablets, but they’re a nice thing to have if you don’t want to break out a mouse for fine editing. I haven’t met many people with the willpower to resist drooling over the Cintiq, for instance. I’ve personally looked at many of Wacom’s products in the past with glee. Extra colors, silver, white and blue are also options, compared to the vanilla Bamboo’s only option of black. The other differences between the vanilla and “Fun” model consist of an added medium size, included software, and eraser for the Bamboo Fun. That may not sound very enticing, but I could see someone picking one up on a whim, if not for the included software or giving one to a child. True artists have the Intuos to fondle, so that leaves people that are interested in picking it up simply because of their curiosity. The Bamboo is dedicated to work-related activities, making notes and writing quick documents or signatures, which I would consider more of an accessory to a workspace.Īs one would expect, the Bamboo Fun is aiming itself towards people who are interested in a tablet for recreational use. The newest additions to Wacom’s budget lineup were recently announced which included the Bamboo and Bamboo Fun, replacements for the company’s Graphire line (though the Bluetooth model is still being sold), were introduced.Įven though both share the same name, the two products have different goals. Graphic artists have preferred to use them because they offer control far superior than what mice give them and average consumers have learned to take advantage of them to do simple editing with digital photos and taking notes.
