Wacom 2K Pen (LP-190K)

hashtag
Summary

Very good pen. Although Wacom uses this pen for a consumer tablet, the truth is this pen has great drawing performance. In particular it is a good (wide) pressure range with low IAF.

This pen comes with the One by Wacom (CTLx72) series of tablets. My notes on these tablets.

Basics

  • Low IAF + good max pressure

  • Two buttons

  • No eraser

Initial Activation Force

  • Tablet expert Kuuube measures the IAF of this pen to be under <1gf - which is excellent.

  • Other's have told me that in practice this pen has a low IAF but one that feels more normal - around 3gf IAF.

  • I myself am not good at measuring IAF with my equipment, but I definitely think the subjective IAF is good but to me it doesn't quite match that of the Pro Pen 2.

  • Keep in mind that even pens of the same model vary a little bit in IAF unit-by-unit.

Pressure response

Max pressure is good (> 350gf) for the three units of this pen that I tested.

All three very very consistent in their pressure response

Ignore IAF in chart below - my testing was not designed for accurate IAF measurements.

Feeling

The One by Wacom pen is a little more plasticky and less premium feeling in hand than the Wacom's professional pens. But this is not a big deal for a beginner.
