# Wacom Pro Pen 3's problems

Discovered issues on Pro Pen 3.

{% hint style="info" %}
This page is a working in progress.
{% endhint %}

There are 3 problems that have been discovered on Pro Pen 3:

* Inaccurate lines with fast strokes.
* Low pressure drawing problems.
* Broken buttons in the early batch production, were fixed with the new rev.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The overall quality of Wacom Pro Pen 3 is still very good, just not as good as Pro Pen 2.

This is to highlight the problem with hope that Wacom will improve the issue over time.

My own tests

Wacom Pro Pen 3 with Movinkpad 11

The pen has random jump to 0 pressure at low IAF, making unstable lines.

## Broken buttons in early batch of production

* Wacom moved the factory to Vietnam and is manufacturing the new revision that has fixed the broken buttons issues.
* Check the country of origin is just a convenient way of knowing the revision.
* You can check the country of origin by removing the upper cap of the pen.
  * "Made in Vietnam" = NEW revision.
  * "Made in China" = OLD version.

(more info will be added later.)
