I also bought tablet just to play osu, sometimes I use it to write something in my pdf files.

I can't tell from the size or the picture, they are identical to each other but it seems that CTL 471 comes with better software
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2407436,00.asp

I can't judge which is better when it comes to osu, since tablet quality doesn't really affect much in osu. At most you will only be looking at how compatible it is with your computer and the active size.

CTL 471 has a mouse mode and gives you a bigger active size, 14.7mm x 9.2mm while H420 gives you 10.2cm x 5.8cm
but the downside to CTL 471 is actually that wasted space aside from the active area.
I have also heard that the pen for H420 is kind of heavy.

you can look at the feedbacks here for the osu! tablet or H420

I can get a CTL 460 for dirt cheap possibly but does not include software and instructions I could download them online right? or my Computer will install them automatically the drivers

They can be downloaded online, You probably want to install the drivers cause they help a lot.

I use a CTL 480, which is the intuos small tablet and it works really well. The pen feels like a pen should and it's just sensitive enough for Osu. The only downside is that I had to pay $70 USD for it, but I think it was well worth it considering that some tablets cost way more than that.

I'm planning on buying this tablet. Ignore the price and random description in Serbian, do you think it's an okay tablet for osu or have you seen someone use it before?

Hi there,
I am a mouse player so far and I want to make the switch into a tablet.
I am between :

Wacom Intuos CTH 480 or Wacom Intuos CTL 480


Since I want to draw with it as well , I know the CTH 480 having an eraser and touch functionality would be better for that. But my question is: Will the touch functionality get in the way of osu? I mean, will it messed me up because it's picking up my hand or something other than the pen?.
My priority is osu, drawing comes after. So which one is better for osu ?

Please don't recommend another one since I am in a coutry where these are pretty much the only ones I can find other than the really expensive ones or cheap looking ones.

Thank you! ;)

hello, i have been playing osu for a few months and, i like this game a lot, so i decided to invest a little bit and buy a tablet
however, i am completely new to tablets, and despite i read the purchase guide (its pretty old by now i think), so i want to some very specific questions.
http://eu.shop.wacom.eu/products/intuos ... 75?c=86366
is this tablet good for playing osu? untill what level of engagement with this game can i use it? (i don't plan to spend much money on this)


ps. sorry for any mispelling that u might find, english is not exactly my first language :p

edit: just saw the post before mine
yeah i pretty much have the same questions as he has by now

I just bought this tablet for my brother: http://www.amazon.com/Turcom-Graphic-Dr ... ing+tablet

What do you guys think of that? I'm not sure if it is any good or not, but it seemed like a decent starting tablet to use

you don't need touch, all it does is just zoom and rotate (which you can do manually)
and eraser is... lets say its not worth the extra 20$, since you can erase by using a software tool
if you wanna choose between this two then go with CTL-480, if you wanna choose the best for Osu! go with Huion W58, it has 230 Polling rate (CTL 480 has 200, Huion has faster response rate) and 5000 LPI which means 2.5x more accuracy than Wacoms (2000~ish) technically it's better by far than any of Wacoms.. wacoms are overrated and pricey for what it has to offer.

i think you just need buy cth 480 if you need for osu and draw, but if you need just for osu ctll 480 is enough.
you can deactivated touch functionality if you use cth 480

osu tablet/Huion (H)420 owners, is your hover distance lower than the advertised 0.6"? Mine is more like 0.2".

Keep on losing combo over jumps >:(

would ths be a good tablet to buy? I'm looking for a cheap tablet for osu!, nothing fancy, just something that works. Although the pen looks quite thick, would that be a problem?

or should I just get the one that everyone else's using?

That's the one I'm using! It works pretty well-very responsive and well-sized active area for osu. The only thing that irks me is the low hover distance, but you get used to it. And it's cheap :P

I'm a mouse player so I know nothing about tablet. I want to buy a tablet for OSU! only. However, I don't know which to choose between Huion(H420 or other) and Wacom(CTL470,CTL480). Price is not an consideration for me. Can anyone tell me which should I pick?

I got the CTL 480 and I think it's probably the best one by a small margin. at least some guy said so in this thread~ t/210318

i got a CTL 470 and i just got the huion h420

i must say the huion feels more responsive and i can hover at a better distance.
(the driver of the huion tend not to conflict with windows contrary to the wacom one )


hope that helped (ps: think that huion is chiniese and you are not safe from a bad lot in my opinion)

Looking for a tablet that works for osu! and is a good drawing tablet as well. Any advice? I read the tablet guide but it seems to be a bit dated in this regard -- then again, maybe used Intuos3 is still the way to go.

I was looking to get a tablet on the low end of the price range. The ones linked in the guide do look good but I was just wondering, I went on the bamboo site and it is showing me a tablet just called "Bamboo pad" for $50 http://www.wacom.com/en/us/everyday/bamboo-pad-usb . Is this a different product and would it work ok? Also this is probably a stupid question but is it possible to use an actual tablet (like an ipad kindof tablet) with osu, plugged into the computer? I assume not but just thought I would throw that out there. And also what about the osu tablet thing http://store.ppy.sh/store/product/1

Have no idea about Bamboo, but I have Huion H420. A bit small, cheap and quite satisfying as far as I'm concerned. It's similar to Osu! Tablet (I'm not sure whether 420 or H420 is used as a base for Osu! tablet)

Hey, I'm looking to replace my good ol' Bamboo Capture CTH-470 with something with a smaller footprint on my desk, and I noticed that the Bamboo Pad CTH-300 actually has drivers now (as of August). Does anyone own this tablet, and do the drivers give you the same flexibility as its bigger brothers? Thanks in advance.

I am still new to the game but I have plenty of mouse experience since I played all kinds of games with mouse my whole life. =]
Now I got a CTL480 a week ago. I felt really weird at first and I had trouble using it properly. But even though having had it for only 6 days now I am already better in terms of accuracy and speed. It gave me all the benefits I was hoping for.

-Hovering without any physical resistance creates a more reliable cursor movement
-Pen is lighter than my mouse so movement in general are comming out more instant
-Sweaty hands don't create an issue for me anymore since I don't have the interruption of a fluid motion on the mousepad anymore
-Pin point locating circles which was not always as easy with the mouse due to relative cursor movement
-Spinners are much easier and more fun with a pen.

I love it and won't ever go back.

Great guide! I wouldn't recommend buying a tablet just for osu! since it doesn't make alotta difference when you practice enough, and it's expensive. I'd say don't give up on mousing too early and don't be fooled by statements as "all good players are tablet players".

Ofcourse if you're very dedicated to the game, wouldn't mind missing some money and would like to try tabletting, by all means do get one \o/
Thats not true cuz i went from mouse to tablet and boy what a difference it also helped jus geting better at the game in generald b4 i couldnt even play hard songs with mouse now i do and insane on tablet

If you're getting it only to play osu! then buying anything bigger than the smallest size is a waste of money imo.

You can use it for anything you want.
It's good enough for osu!

BTW, anyone have any recommendations on pen nibs?
Mine is starting to run out.
(Plz don't say hover. I have other work to do. My local shops don't sell any pen nibs....)

Midnight in my opinion i think it depends what do u use the tablet for most of the time, for me i do drawing a lot so i prefer the nib with a rubber at the tip, gives u more feel to it :P . Or you can just take out the pen nib and play osu without it, it still works fine though.

P.S im a newbie here so dont judge me :3

Is it better or worse to have a larger active area? I have a bamboo large and an intuos sml, naturally I use the larger pad but it does mean you have to move more to get from one place to another.

This is subjective and depends on the player. My advice is to use the biggest area you can while still be able to reach all 4 corners of your area.

You can go to the manufacturer's website and most likely find the model of pen you have.

Did anyone try this tablet in osu? It looks like it's simply a new generation of the belowed Wacom Intous tablets, so it should be good enough, right?

These are the New Line of tablets set to replace the ctl 480. So far there hasn't been a lot of exposure of them for osu.

Basically other people are waiting for others to buy it.

You can still purchase ctl 480 from best buy / best buy (online version).

I would do so asap because they are starting to disappear.

Do you live in the US/UK

Try going to your Local Best buy or order it from Best Buy's site:

I am still a bit confused about tablet purchase. I am actually considering getting one, because playing with a mouse is actually quite physically painful for me.

I didn't want to start another thread, I see there is many already, but I'm not too good with that kind of stuff, so I was hoping someone would be kind enough to explain things to me smoothly.

I stumbled upon this guy's post : http://sweetmonia.com/Sweet-Drawing-Blo ... ing-guide/
Who suggested this tablet: http://www.amazon.com/mn/search/ref=as_ ... 7MWG2AUVGI

But when I look at the size of it, roughly 2.2 X 4 inches, that sounds incredibly small.

For the same price, I could get the osu! tablet which seems to be roughly double in size.

In that guide, I noticed that the Osu tablet is not in the options, is there a reason to it?

Considering that I am a pretty casual player, with no real hopes of being competitive, the Osu! tablet seems like a fine pick, but since it's not in that guide, I'm wondering if there is something I don't quite understand yet.

Sorry for all these "noobish" questions, I just have no idea where I'm going with that, and I don't really want to make a mistake on my purchase either.

Looking forward to hear from anyone who would be interested in clarifying things for me. I'll check this thread again, but if you want to take it in PM, I would also much appreciate that.

Thank you.

I stumbled upon this guy's post : http://sweetmonia.com/Sweet-Drawing-Blo ... ing-guide/
Who suggested this tablet: http://www.amazon.com/mn/search/ref=as_ ... 7MWG2AUVGI

But when I look at the size of it, roughly 2.2 X 4 inches, that sounds incredibly small.

For the same price, I could get the osu! tablet which seems to be roughly double in size.

In that guide, I noticed that the Osu tablet is not in the options, is there a reason to it?

Considering that I am a pretty casual player, with no real hopes of being competitive, the Osu! tablet seems like a fine pick, but since it's not in that guide, I'm wondering if there is something I don't quite understand yet.

Sorry for all these "noobish" questions, I just have no idea where I'm going with that, and I don't really want to make a mistake on my purchase either.

Looking forward to hear from anyone who would be interested in clarifying things for me. I'll check this thread again, but if you want to take it in PM, I would also much appreciate that.

Thank you.
Have a look at the CTL-480 or the CTL-490. The CTL-490 when I got it was not very optimized and I refunded it and got the CTL-480. It is a tablet which many people go for and has a nice area of 152mm x 95mm.

And what about the Osu! Tablet? http://store.ppy.sh/store/product/1

Why does not much people mention about it? Is it heavily inferior to the CTL-480 you mention about?

I've found a ridiculously cheap one by Wacom. Do you think it'd do the job?

it'll do the job

no love for huion? i know the drivers suck and the build quality is nothing impressive, but the sheer price range is astounding. i picked up an 580 for $40 8x5in active area, with a pen, replacement nibs, driver cd and a manual. it works fine for art and excellent for osu!. the micro usb port is a bit wobbly though.

Does anyone know if the new ctl-490 is good for osu! ? I still want to buy the ctl-480 but I can't find it anywhere except amazon on high prizes from untrusted salesmen.
Edit: By the way guys,what do you think about this?

I am also interested in the CTL471 and CTL671, would they work for osu well?

And also, does the smaller workspace matter if I buy the smaller CTL471?

The Wacom One is just a region-specific rebranding of the Wacom Bamboo Pen (CTL-471), which was a pretty popular tablet for osu! back in its day, and should perform about the same as the Intuos.

Also, keep in mind that what Wacom calls "small" is the tablet that most people use for osu! (it's still bigger than the osu!tablet), so you shouldn't even bother with the medium size unless you're also planning on drawing.

I'm a new osu player and I'm using a ctl 490 and its working very nicely for me so far. I would definitely recommend it

Quick question about the osu!tablet (in case any owners in here have it or a Huion in general): do they come with batteries? If not, what batteries are needed?

You can buy a Huion 420, which is the same model as the osu!tablet, in plain black.

You can also buy an XP-Pen 430. It's a new product, but there is at least one osu! player who says it is good. This tablet has a lighter pen that does not need batteries.

What are good tablets that are cheap and good for beginners? Im level 11 with 88.63% accuracy and I think I may need a tablet. Also, how do you click with the tablet pen?
