Wacom Cintiq 12WX

 

is cuddly. It weighs nearly 19 pounds without the standtry propping up your feet up with this thing in your lap (as I have) and you're likely to find it carving divots into some portion of your anatomy before long. Of course, a regular non-display pen...

State-of-the-art drawing tools. Easy to use in your lap. More ExpressKeys than on other Wacom input devices.

Smallish display. Stand doesn't lock upright. Complicated setup. No cable management.

If you make your living creating graphics, you need a Cintiq drawing table. The question is: which one? The Cintiq 12WX's lower price, increased comfort factor, and added functionality may give the Editors' Choicewinning Cintiq 21UX a run for its money.

Cintiq 12WX Digitizing Tablet

 

At this screen size, unless you really value the built-in LCD, you might be better off with a cheaper drawing tablet.

Smallest, most affordable Cintiq, Crisp, bright LCD

Takes up lots of desk space, Twice the price of a comparable Intuos tablet

Is the 12WX worth twice the price of a comparable-size Intuos tablet? Only if you value the built-in LCD

Wacom Technology Corp. 12WX review: Wacom Technology Corp. 12WX

 

Wacom Technology Corp. 12WX

Fluid operation; useful for many graphics and imaging tasks.

Bulky breakout box; hard to work near the edges of the screen; relatively expensive.

A great input device if you do a lot of brush-based graphics, the Cintiq 12WX nonetheless has some awkward design aspects and a bit of a high price.

Wacom Cintiq 12WX Review (Video)

 

Picture this, you're working on an image in Photoshop, and you need to do a little precise brush work to clean things up. So you pick up your display, sketchbook style, grab a pen and go to work just like you would with pencils or pastels – “drawing”...

If you’ve justified the cost equation in your mind, and can overlook the Cintiq’s average performance as a display and occasional setup quirks, the 12WX is otherwise free of fatal flaws, offering an interface for graphics work or general computing...

Wacom Cintiq 12WX review

 

The Cintiq sub-brand comes of age in spectacular style

Superb ergonomics ; Ability to toggle between displays ; Phenomenal impact on workflow ; Great stylus and tips

Screen a little dim and grainy ; Expensive

We should care that it costs over £800, but we just don’t. It’s lovely
