Wacom obviously spent time on the carrying case, and it really is top notch. The retail packaging it came in and the carrying case provided with the stylus are both very satisfying. The exterior texture of the pen is nice and it feels very solid in the hand.

Not light enough to feel cheap, not heavy enough to be burdensome. I’m sure there are tons of other bindings that are great but I found those to be the most useful for me. Hold it down to erase and release to return to your brush. Need to erase a little bit? The erase button is right there. Make a mistake? Undo button right at your fingertips. I bound mine to the ‘eraser’ and ‘undo’ functions in Bamboo Paper.

The buttons on the side of the stylus are fully programmable and extremely convenient. Most of my testing was in the app ‘Bamboo Paper’. It is a great crayon for scratching out rough sketches and diagrams, drawing on photos, or writing notes. While it is not great for art, it is quite utilitarian and a lot of fun. The Wacom Bamboo Sketch Stylus is a lot of fun.
