There ARE trade-offs for wireless convenience: There's the added expense of wireless hardware over conventional USB connected drawing tablets. Internal batteries are now involved and USB recharging is needed at least periodically depending on frequency of use. And, as with any wireless connnected computer peripheral, there's simply the occasional or intermittent connection drop-out issues that may happen when you roam too far from the tablet's reliable transmission range of operation.

Bluetooth vs RF Wireless Tablet Operation

The two primary methods of wirelessly connecting a drawing pad to your Mac are either using Bluetooth or RF Wireless signals.

Bluetooth Drawing Tablets

The advantages of connecting a drawing tablet via Bluetooth to your Apple MacBook laptop or desktop computer is the ubiquity of Bluetooth on ALL Mac's made in recent history. But Bluetooth has a limited wireless range of 30 feet at best and often less in real-world use.

RF Drawing Tablets

The alternative: A drawing pad that uses a 2.4 GHz radio frequency transmitter offers a higher-speed, greater usable distance range and potentially more reliable wireless connection. The trade-off in an RF wireless drawing tablet on your Mac is that the RF transmitter will require a dedicated USB port for the receiver dongle. On Macintosh desktop systems like the iMac, Mac mini or Mac Pro that may not be much of an issue since these desktop systems typically include 3 or more USB ports for the RF drawing pad's transmitter dongle. On MacBook Pro and Air laptops, available USB ports are in shorter supply. The tiny USB RF tablet's dongle may be a bit more of an inconvenience on Mac systems which don't have alot of extra USB ports.
