At first glance pen tablets may all look similar. They're slim slates that function like big trackpads, allowing you to draw with a stylus and see the results on a computer monitor. But as we see in the our guide to the best drawing tablets, features like the location of quick keys for shortcuts can make all the difference to artists' workflows.

Now Wacom, one of the biggest names in drawing tablets, is shaking things up with a complete overhaul of its leading Intuous Pro range, which has been among the best pro-level pen tablets since its launch in 2013. It reckons the new design makes for a workflow that's "less work, more flow" thanks to new mechanical dial controls (see our and the best Wacom tablets to compare to the brand's other offerings).
