Third-party reviews

Based on 15,976 buyer reviews from online shops.
Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about UGEE S640

  • High pressure sensitivity (8192 levels) and tilt detection for precise control
  • Excellent value for money, often described as professional features at a beginner price
  • Portable and slim design, making it easy to fit into laptop bags
  • Includes 10 fully programmable shortcut keys for a faster workflow
  • Strong compatibility with Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android devices
  • Battery-free stylus requires no charging
  • Smooth installation and easy-to-use driver software

What we don't like about UGEE S640

  • Small active drawing area (6.3 x 4 inches), which may feel cramped for larger monitors
  • The plastic construction of the stylus can feel a bit 'cheap' or lightweight to some
  • The pen loop is positioned near the charging port, which some find awkward
  • The placement of shortcut buttons at the very top can be less ergonomic than side buttons
  • Minor stylus lag reported when using very heavy brush settings in complex software
  • Occasional reports of driver glitches or connectivity issues on specific systems like Mac

Verdict

The Ugee S640 is a portable and budget-friendly graphics tablet featuring a 6.3 x 4-inch active drawing area with 5080 LPI resolution and 10 fully customizable shortcut keys to streamline workflows. Its primary characteristics include 8,192 levels of pressure sensitivity, 60-degree tilt support, and a report rate of 220 RPS, paired with a lightweight, battery-free stylus that requires no charging. Main pros include its high cost-performance ratio, excellent responsiveness, and broad compatibility with Windows, Mac, Android, and Linux via a USB-C connection. However, some users have noted cons such as the all-plastic build feeling slightly cheap, a lack of wireless connectivity on the base model (available only on the S640W), and a small working area that may feel restrictive when used with very large external monitors.
