Microsoft Surface Go As Drawing Tablet

Pairs with the Microsoft Surface Go I got as a gift for my spouse. She's quite happy with it.

I do not have a Microsoft Surface and I am using the dial on a regular PC. I am using it as a volume control, to scroll, and also to zoom when using a drawing tablet. So far so good. I love the feeling I get when using it and how cool it looks.

I‘m a newbie with the tablet, so it was especially difficult for me getting used to the slick surface... with the Paperlike it’s nearly as drawing on paper. Thanks a lot, great product!

This is my 2nd Wacom drawing tablet. I bought a CTL480 last year to use for whiteboarding with remote workers, and since that was discontinued I got the CTL490 recently. With the right software (I use Smooth Draw, which is free), both work very well for this purpose. I spend many hours with each, and the main difference seems to be the CTL480 has a smoother feel of nib on writing surface, which is better for writing words fast, and the CTL490 has a bit more scratchiness, which works better for true drawing & sketching. The CTL480 is actually a little too slippery for precision drawing. I like the slightly heavier and wider circumference of the CTL480 stylus better, but the 490 one works fine. I mapped the 152x95 mm drawing surface to 1728x1080 pixels (rather than using the default mapping) because this matches the aspect ratios, making natural hand motions on the tablet match what shows up on the screen. It's not quite as good as writing with your favorite pen or pencil or paper, but it's very good, and I like it better than writing directly on the screen of the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and 4. Those felt a little too slick for me, and if you're drawing the feel is quite important.

Very nice pen, great for drawing, or use instead of my fat finger when using my Surface Pro as a tablet, and the magnet attachment feature to the Surface Pro 6 is very convenient.  Pricey but excellent!

Drawing on it feels much more natural than drawing on glass surface.

Use with Surface Go.

Microsoft surface pen is a great choice

Greate Cover, Excellent with my Surface Go.

I have used several types of laptop computers, but Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is more than I expected :)
