This is the best digital drawing experience ive ever enjoyed! This tablet feels amazing to draw on. There basically 0 anti-glare sparkle, the display is gorgeous, crisp and easy on the eyes (and works great for non-art things when you arent drawing). The device itself is built like a brick and i have a feeling it'll last a long time. Ive been using it daily for 2+ months and ive noticed no issues or markings on the display. I also appreciate how the tablet settings UI is configured with the tablet pen which is very intuitive and comfortable. As for negatives these were the biggest issues ive noticed (none of which involve the actual tablet): - The pen.. is not very good. I didnt like it. Ive just been using my pro pen 2 that i had with my intuos. This pro pen 3 is very uncomfortable for me with its very slim form factor as somebody who is prone to wrist cramps. The buttons also require way too much force to be comfortable. The pro pen 2 is still a perfect tablet pen and i have no clue why they downgraded it so hard for the new model, including getting rid of the eraser end. It also doesnt include the accessories (like the weight and buttons) you would normally get if you bought the pen individually. Dumb penny pinching. - No stand. I feel like any tablet over $500 should automatically come with a stand. Not a huge deal, but still noteworthy. More penny pinching. - No mini-hdmi. Seriously? Its basically a requirement to use the device since most computers dont support the display-usb mode. A mini hdmi cable costs less than $10 dollars so this also feels especially greedy. Yet more penny pinching. If youre familiar with wacom these penny pinching practices wont come as a surprise but they are still notable. Despite my complaints i do still love this tablet and ive been enjoying drawing on it everyday. But you should consider these things as well when purchasing- especially the fact you need to have a mini-hdmi cable ready. Overall im very happy with the device.

I am an illustrator and animator (@inkshift) with over 14 years of experience working for Disney & Cartoon Network here in Portland, OR. I've also been a Wacom user for over 20 years, so let me open this review by saying they really knocked it out of the park with this new Cintiq 22. This is also my 4th Cintiq, so you judge for yourself if i have a problem or not ;) I have the 27” pro at my office as well as the new 16 and a super old 12” in addition to a handful of tablets dating all the way back to the late 90s. This Cintiq 22 is part of their new line of more affordable Cintiqs Wacom started rolling out this year and it really seems to be the golden mean between the smaller 16 and the larger Pros. Full disclosure: Wacom DID provide me this unit for review purposes but I hereby solemnly swear all views in this review are entirely my own and 100% my own opinions. First off: the pressure sensitivity is beautiful and virtually indistinguishable from my 27” pro, which cost over twice as much. As you can see in the attached timelapse of an illustration I did on this 22, each line came out exactly like I wanted it: smooth tapers, no shaky lines, no blotches, weird unintended textures or weird ends to my strokes. The included Pro Pen 2 is a solid, comfortable pen and really helps you feel the 8192 levels of pressure. You can also the new Pro Pen slim if you want a sleeker pen but i prefer the stubbier feel. Secondly, the overall build quality and polish impresses, it is very solid and the design is professional and clean. Small detail but important to me: the power button is easily pushed and feels pleasant and responsive. The entire machine feels very sturdy while not being too heavy. I kind of wish they brought back the side buttons they had on the 12” and 21” but I can see how it makes sense ergonomically and aesthestically to leave those off. It should be noted that this 22” doesn’t come with a remote or a bluetooth keyboard, which is not a deal breaker for me because my 27” came with the remote and I never use it. It DOES however come with a fantastic, preattached stand! The new stand is sturdy, stable, lightweight, solid metal with non-slip rubber grippy feet, easy to use and highly flexible. Wacom REALLY came through for its users with the stand this time, as I have not been a fan of the stands of the past: they’re either huge, expensive, cumbersome and awkward to operate or they just have the little fold out legs, which are simply insufficient for long term use and you’d need to invest in an extendable arm that can keep your Cintiq suspended/supported. One difference between the pro line and this newer, more affordable line is that these units do not have a bonded glass display. THis means that there’s a tiny bit of space between the pen and the screen and that generally means there is more parallax (the offset between the cursor and the pen), but it was not noticeable to me once I calibrated it properly. The screen has an anti-glare surface which feels nice and smooth, not slick or slippery at all with just the right amount of texture to it. Another difference between this 22 and the pro line is the Adobe RGB colour range. This Cintiq sports a 72% Adobe RGB vs a 97% for the pro line, but I don’t think you will be disappointed (or honestly really notice? I didn’t) unless you’re super tuned into colour and colour correction or need the most accurate representation possible. But at that point, you should probably be investing in the pro line. Like I said, I also have the new 16 which is also great but felt a bit small to me and became cumbersome very quickly for when I needed a number of palettes/windows open. At 22”, (21.5” viewable), that is is not a problem here at all. Wacom has paid great attention to detail in packaging as well as the attached power cords: it includes a British power plug free of charge, as well as 2 different orientations of power cords: horizontal and vertical. As you can see in my unboxing clip, I’m a little surprised by the amount of power cables at first glance but upon further inspection it all makes sense. Setup was very easy: 3 cables as seen in the picture. The HDMI cable is a welcome addition compared to the 3-in-1 cables, which are a bit messy, cumbersome and require complete replacement should ONE of them have an issue. Things to note! I didn’t bother adjusting the pressure curve settings because they were great out of the box, but I did change the click speed and I also deactivated Windows Ink (I use windows 10). I don’t understand what Windows ink is for but all it seems to do to me is make you unable to drag/select text in input fields. Conclusion: All in all, this is a beautiful and affordable piece of equipment. It is technically part of their ‘budget’ line but there is nothing budget about the size or the quality of this device. The size, design and build quality exude class and quality and the pen and pressure sensitivity are best in class. While the unit is not small, it strikes a perfect balance between spacious and compact. It doesn’t take over your whole desk like my larger units nor does it break the bank at $1200. I would definitely recommend this to the professional on a budget or a very lucky/forward thinking student or hobbyist. PROS: - Buttery smooth & responsive pressure sensitivity - Smooth but not slick anti-glare surface - Solid build quality and professional look & feel - Comes with a sturdy, stable and flexible stand - Great size with room for longer strokes and all the palettes/windows you may need open - Stays cool even when working on it all day CONS: - “Only” full HD (1920 x 1080) vs the 4k of newer models but I have the 4k model as well and I haven’t been bothered by any potential pixelation. All my illustrations are all made at 600 Dpi and I haven't noticed any problems. - Mine had 1 dead pixel but I only notice it when I look for it. I streamed a commission earlier today in my Inkshift Facebook group and didn't notice it once.

I use many digital photographic software apps. I needed an accurate pen input pad to speed up editing and correction. This unit is affordable and allows for touch input as well. No lag, delay or missed positions with the pen. It has a great built in stand to angle the device from flat on the desk to upright. The touch support can be toggled on or off so that the pen stylus is in control. I have actually hand written notes on my lap as a notebook with perfect results. It easily moves from one computer to another and is compact enough to travel with using a laptop as the computer. Glare is minimal and resolution is perfect for me. I would recommend this purchase without hesitation. I have owned Wacom products in the past, and their quality is unmatched.

I'll preface by saying I think Wacom gets an insane amount of glaze from reviews who expect the least for the most amount of money. even the reviews listed on this site are for multiple generations of Cintiq's dating back 10 years, so make sure you're reading feedback for the newest 2025 model if you want to take them seriously. that being said, I think this is the first real value Wacom has offered in a 16" display for over a decade, or possibly ever. No matter what you do, make sure you avoid purchasing the older generation (labeled "pro pen 2" here on Amazon) at all costs, since it doesn't have a laminated display, has horrible resolution/colors, and requires an outrageous amount of cables connected to your computer to operate. this newer one fixes all those issues, with only 2 glaring problems remaining (or newly created): 1. there isn't a single customizable shortcut button on the display, although they easily COULD have fit them on the back of the display like the pro models do. 2. the pro pen 3 is quite frankly garbage. To clarify, the version they include with this display is especially garbage. despite being a $700 display, they skimp on every corner they can with the pen by only packing in the lightweight, cheap feeling, stripped down version of the pro pen 3 with no extra weights, grips or anything else with it. it feels cheap to use, and handles much worse than the far superior pro pen 2. Anyone who tells you otherwise would happily accept anything Wacom fed them. That being said, the tablet itself is overall pleasant to use. for the first time ever on a baseline display, this Cintiq is a crisp 2.5k resolution with a pleasant 16:10 aspect ratio, it has very nice colors fairly accurate to my MacBook Pro, and the visa mount allows this to be used with any monitor stand you can find on amazon. it feels high quality and comes in at a hefty weight I really like. And the little adjustable pen stand that connects to the display is a pretty clever touch I've appreciated using. This is the first time in a decade I would consider recommending any Wacom display to someone on a slimmer budget, because this finally offers some real value despite having obvious drawbacks most online diehards will refuse to admit. If you're looking for something on an even tighter budget around this size, I'd look into the Huion Kamvas 16 gen 3 that came out around the same time as this in 2025, because it's got even more bells and whistles at nearly half the cost. I've used both and can strongly recommend that as well.

I love this drawing tablet sooo much! It's big and feels nice to draw on. The only thing is that it didn't have a mini HDMI included, so I had to go out and buy one separately. It's not very portable either if you were thinking about carrying it around with you places, but it's simple to set up.

I love this tablet immensely, it got me excited to do 3D sculpting and other art again on the computer. Be aware for connectivity to the computer that you will need a mini hdmi to either hdmi or display port cable. It only comes with a usb-c to usb-c data cable, so if you dont have a usb-c port for your computer you will also need a usb-c to usb-a 3.0 adapter. The usbc let's you use the oen and the hdmi allows you to use the screen of the tablet with the computer. Don't get me wrong, this beast is expensive, but absolutely worth every penny in my opinion. Its super responsive and the pen pressure is fantastic. The screen itself is perfectly bright and the color feels true. I would definitely recommend this to any serious digital artist.

OVERALL: I previously had a Cintiq 22HD, and for me the Cintiq 22 is a direct upgrade. I've been satisfied with this product so far, although full disclosure: I have only had it for about a week. I use it for medical illustrations and digital painting. In general, I think if you're a professional who uses a tablet for digital art some but NOT all of the time for work that is intended to be displayed on a customer's device, or a very serious hobbyist who does a lot of digital painting sometimes for pay and sometimes not, then you're probably the target customer for this product. If you are just starting out with digital art then I think this product is probably not worth the cost for you (yet), and if you're doing artwork for print or game/movie/tv production and can get your employer to buy a cintiq for you, then you should consider getting the pro 24 or 32 instead. Personally, I would have a hard time making the business case for needing such a tablet for my current job, which is why I decided to go with one I could afford to buy as a personal expense instead. WHAT THIS PRODUCT IS NOT: this tablet is NOT a computer. It is a specialized monitor for creating digital artwork that needs to be plugged in to a computer to work. If that's not what you are planning to use it for, then you shouldn't buy it. Also, this product is NOT a second monitor: you should not leave it turned on when you aren't using it for artwork, if you just leave it on all the time and use it like a regular monitor it will burn out faster. Pros: -If you are a wacom tablet user but have never used a pen display before then a cintiq will be a huge upgrade for you, although expect for it to take some time to get used to using it. For me the hardest thing to get used to was not being able to see the part of the screen that my hand was in front of. -If you're coming from one of the previous generation pen displays like the 22 HD, this tablet should be completely fine. It's smaller than the 22HD, but has more screen area. It's also lighter and doesn't get as hot, and it can sit comfortably on your desk instead of needing to hover in the air. The stand it comes with is much sturdier and easier to deal with than the one that came with the 22HD as well. -If your computer outputs to HDMI or any lower tier signal then you probably won't have any issues with resolution. Honestly maybe I'm just getting old but I actually had to buy a DVI adapter for the HDMI video cable to hook up to my computer. -I saw some reviews talking about paralax with this display, but I didn't notice anything serious, and definitely nothing worse than with the 22HD. -As with all wacom products it's very easy to set up as long as you are capable of downloading driver software from a website and installing it. -Finally, it is cheaper than the 22HD was 5 years ago, and a great deal cheaper than the Pro 24. Cons: -If you have never used a tablet before and are coming from traditional pen and paper artwork, there is going to be a period of time where the tablet will feel awkward to use, but I promise that you will get used to it if you give it time. There is no digital drawing tool that will be easier for you to get used to than a pen display, it is the most similar to pen and paper drawing of all digital art tools. -If you are used to working with high quality 4k video output then the 1080 screen is going to be a downgrade for you. Also just like previous generations, this cintiq has issues with color matching. -The stand is very sturdy but it does require that your cintiq sits stationary on your desk and you can't rotate it around in this position. The way it's built also makes it more difficult to attach an ergo arm to it which was easy enough to accomplish with the 22HD. -Although it is cheaper than the Pro 24 cintiq, it's still a 1200$ piece of equipment and that is probably going to be beyond many people's budget. -And my final gripe with this tablet, which is maybe being a little nitpicky, is the location and setup of the three (!) cords that it needs in order to work. The power cable, USB cable, and HDMI video cable all plug in to the TOP of the tablet, rather than hooking into the back or side, causing them to loop over and hang down behind the device awkwardly. Also honestly the fact that it needs three separate cords is a lot of wires on your desk. All of this is a fairly minor complaint though: even if one of the cords does get kinked, they aren't that expensive to replace: you don't even have to get them from wacom, it's just a standard high speed usb cable and an hdmi video cable. In conclusion, if you're doing artwork for a job that involves some digital painting, or perhaps you're a freelancer who doesn't have a gigantic budget, or someone who does a lot of digital painting but isn't selling it for whatever reason, this tablet will be totally fine for your needs without destroying your budget.

Only told by Wacom support that my issues with pen response was because I needed a Mini HDMI to HDMI cable that Wacom DIDN’T provide. Buyer beware!!!
