UPDATED REVIEW- 8-9-24I upgraded from the 24 pro (non touch) to the 27 pro- been using it for over a year now- sorry it took me soo long to get to reviewing it but here we go-LONG TIME WACOM USER-My wacom history continues to grow!I started out with a few years using an intousmany years on cintiq 22hda few years on 24 pro1 year on 27 pro.So what do I think of the 27 pro after a year of using it?well... captain...It's a sick upgrade and I've been loving it dearly.PRICE-Now 3500$ bucks is a lot... or very little... depending on your situation in life and perspective.Is art something you are serious about? Or just a little side hobby thing?Will you use the cintiq a lot or a little?If you are serious about making art- this is the best it gets for digital creation. Why settle for less?But if you are in a hard spot in life by all means get a cheaper cintiq- or a 3rd party device. They are still great n all. But you get what you pay for here, and no other screen can do 27 inches at 120hz and 4k resolution, which is part of why this is soo expensive And YES! these features are a big deal, at least to me. Let's dive into the details so I can explain more why I think it's worth it.TOUCH BY DEFAULT-The 27 pro comes with touch- they don't offer a non touch variant this time thankfully. So for the first time ever I have a cintiq with touch... a feature I always thought I wouldn't care much for, and passed on to save money in the past. So what do I think of it now that I've used it?wow...I love touch and now consider it a must have feature!!It was a total game changer to how I work and especially practice. On many websites (not youtube for some reason though sadly) you can even zoom in on videos with pinch to zoom. This is just a delight in ref study. Or even just moving 3d models around on some apps without having to grab a mouse. It helps to keep my right hand drawing. Turns out you don't really need many express keys or an express remote or even a keyboard\mouse, at least not that often, all thanks to all the things touch can do for you! Your lack of imagination might limit how much you get out of touch, but otherwise for folks who understand how to use it- it's a serious productivity improvement to have.The only real con for touch is all these apps that poorly support it. Most major apps work fine with it, but less popular and obscure\older apps often won't.Touch will get glitched and incorrect inputs at times too- just like any touch device. It's easy to turn it off\on if you need at times thanks to a little switch on the back of the cintiq. I personally keep touch on 95% of the time, it's really not bad for doing most things- and quite helpful to have on.REFRESHED-I said a long time ago- in my 24 pro review- that I would buy the next cintiq generation if it had 120hz and Wacom did exactly that with the 27 pro, so I made good on my claim and I gotta say, the 120hz refresh rate is awesome for drawing, it is just soo fluid and responsive! Can I tell the difference from 60hz to 120? Absolutely!And the extra screen space thanks to being 3 inches larger than my 24 pro makes it feel about the perfect size where I can do huge drawings. It's really cool in games too, though I wish this was a g-sync enabled monitor. Screen tearing n all- it's still better to have than not though. 120 is just soo buttery smooth if you have the GPU horsepower for it and the screen is HD and large enough to be a really solid gaming monitor too!PRO- PEN- THE THIRD-I love using the pro pen 3! It's soo lightwieght by default just like you are holding a real pencil. It even responds to ever bolder levels of tilt and pressure than before!I just with the pen button panels were not so fragile- I have broken 3 buttons on 2 different pens over the last year. I have learned how to superglue these back into place for a more permament fix- but it does mean you cannot replace the button panels then (at least how I do it- to ensure they don't break again). Wacom oddly enough- sells replacement parts for everything BUT the button panels... Isn't that nice of them? Sheesh...The lack of eraser is also a weird choice by wacom- but in apps that actually support the 3rd button as an eraser- it IS (as some people have claimed) better way to go about erasing anyways. I've learned to appreciate that sort of a hotkey I guess. It sure is annoying in apps that don't support it properly however. Sometimes you can invent workarounds, sometimes you cannot. It depends what app ya know? I'd say most major apps use it "good enough" to perfect. It definitely varies though.WHOOSH OF THE FAN!-The fan noise is there, but it's not bad. The screen is surprisingly chill too the touch, definitely colder than the heavy hot screen of the 24 pro. We don't get to turn the fan off this time around with settings, so thankfully it's not bad.VESA MOUNT IT!--Make sure to pair it up with some kind of VESA mount. I use the same ancient ergotron LX that for years held up my 22hd and my 24 pro- but many kinds (including official wacom one) will fit it just fine. It didn't need a huge heavy metal mounting plate like my 24 pro did, and I'm very happy about that. The 27 pro actually looks like a much smaller screen next to 27 pro- just because there is very little bezel area which means this screen overall when mounted is MUCH LIGHTER then the 24 pro. Overall a very good change I feel. Soo bye bye bezel I say!It was fun to rest my hands on the bezel area- and it was handy how there was 2 magnet spots for the included express key remote, but I can live without those features, esp since the 27 pro has touch. Touch lets me eliminite a LOT of the need for express keys- so the 4 on the back are more than enough I find, I rarely even need to use them.SPEAKING OF SIZE-Maybe someday I'll feel ready for a 30inch cintiq- but right now 27 feels about perfect. I said the same of 22hd, and the 24 pro in the past soo... We'll see. A bigger canvas does allow for bigger ideas I find. Getting much bigger though will mean you REALLY have to reach to get around, so I dunno... Depends on your physical size I suppose, I could see a really short person not liking how big the 27 pro is already.DEAD PIXELS- not this time captain! YEEHAW! My 24 pro had some, so I was very happy to get a perfect 27 pro.LIGHT BLEED- yep- seems all 27 pro's have it to some degree. Definiely something I hope they nail down better in future generations, but it's still okay to use like this. It's only mostly noticable in really dark games and it doesn't completely ruin the experience or anything but yes, would be better if this was solved in the future. It's roughly as bad as the 24 pro, so this has been an issue for a number of years now.PEN HOLDER-it's bleh... esp if using a vesa mount and moving\tilting the screen around a lot. The pen will fly out easily and it's a flimsy thing. I'd like to see a pen silo\magnet type of solution in the future. A pen shaped dip somewhere on the top maybe with magnets that hold the pen in place?SCREEN SURFACE-It's nice- I can't tell if I liked the 24 pro surface more or not, both are very good to sketch and paint on having a little bit of a toothy feel to it like real paper would.CABLES-Sadly one of the important cables was MUUUCH SHORTER this time than on the 24 pro. I actually had to re-arrange my pc tower to bring it closer so it would reach. You are gonna have to keep your tower fairly close to your cintiq. Seriously, why is it soo short?FREE SOFTWARE-It was lame again. Just like the 24 pro- I never bothered to register again because of this.SCREEN DURABILITY-Just like all my other cintiqs- no scratches, and I never bother with screen protectors. Been using these things for over a decade now- seem pretty solid to me. Just don't do stupid things around it and it won't get scratched. =DCUSTOMIZING-Just like older cintiqs it's very easy to set custom hotkeys for express keys, stylus buttons. I wish touch functions could be more customizable however.DRIVERS-Less software and edge of screen glitches then ever before. Cintiq's keep getting more solid over the generations. Wacom drivers still fail now n then but it's far less often than the 24 pro. It also restarts much nicer without having to reboot the entire pc as often.OVERALL OPINION-The 24 pro was a huge upgrade to my 22hq years ago when I got it. It served me very well, but nothing so far compares to the 27. I figured it would be a nice upgrade, and it sure was.I adore my 27 pro. ADORE IT!It is the ultimate device for anyone who loves to draw-paint-sculpt. It is worth the price if you can afford one. It definitely makes drawing and painting more fun to do. We've come a long ways from the old 22hd and earlier, and I can't wait to see what the future holds for the cintiq line.Really, I'm already looking forward to a future generation of insanely responsive buttery smooth cintiqs with 240hz and 8k resolution, but this screen is a dream in the meantime and I'm glad wacom built it.Hopefully the pro pen 4 won't be soo fragile- and maybe bring back an eraser while letting us keep a 3rd button still. =DCLOSING ADVICE-Good luck on your decision, I know it's something that takes a lot of thought. If you do as many miles in drawing as I do in a year, anything that makes drawing even slightly better is worth a lot IMO. That's the best advice I can give ya. Get your priorities in order, cause if you spend 2000$ a year in smokes\energy drinks\booze\gambling you got no right to complain about the price of a cintiq, period. People in ACTUAL hard sitations in life can, but it won't do any good. This is bleeding edge tech for drawing screens, with the very best in stylus\software\app\touch support and drivers. Which STILL needs a lot more support for all kinds of apps- so imagine how much worse support would be on a 3rd party cintiq-like device! 3500$ gets you much more than just hardware here.Whatever you do, just make sure it isn't an intuous like device that you end up buying. The disconnect between hand and screen is very real. Get a proper drawing screen like a cintiq or a cheaper 3rd party brand. The people who prefer intous to cintiq are just being silly. 99% of folks would clearly like a cintiq more. Get the linework and curves you actually intented the first time! Seriously how do those people ink like that! I never could...
5.0 out of 5 stars Best in class
I have had this monitor for 3 months now. Before I got this, I had tried Huion and Xencelabs displays.Build QualityThe build quality is excellent. The materials and fit and finish on my unit are top notch. The glass feels great underhand.ScreenOut of the box color reproduction is within a few percent of what was advertised based on my test with an xrite color calibration sensor. There is a very slight backlight bleed on the right edge of the screen but this is only noticeable against a black background and will be covered up by the UI of any drawing program. The screen is very crisp despite the good anti-glare coating on it. Compared to other 4k drawing tablets with antiglare coatings, this one blows them out of the water in terms of clarity (looking at you, xencelabs 24). There is no point in buying a 4k monitor if the anti glare coating is blurry, and with this monitor you truly do get the benefits of 4k. The touch functions fine but I don't like using touch because I will occasionally accidentally trigger it. This is a problem for me regardless of device, even on iPads, so I wouldn't knock this unit for being overly sensitive. It's nice to have a physical switch to quickly disable touch on the back of the unit so I can use touch on occasion if I want to. The 120 hz is very nice but it is the sort of luxury you take for granted until you have to use a 60 hz screen again. The screen is plenty bright for me at default settings, but there are a multitude of different settings you can adjust for colorspaces, etc. I just leave it on default settings sRGB.Drawing ExperienceThe pen is excellent. It is extremely accurate and all pressure levels are usable. I do not see any line wobble in an unstabilized pen on this display.Other NotesI don't use the trigger buttons but they are there if you want them and the buttons feel quality to press.I currently have the unit on the official Wacom stand for it and I think it is also excellent, very solid and easy to adjust.My particular unit has zero fan noise.The pen holder that comes with the unit sucks. Sorry Wacom, but this pen holder is practically designed to drop your pen at the slightest bump regardless of where you screw it in to the tablet. Just something to be aware of, you might want to store the pen somewhere else.The only true downside is this tablet is $3k and the stand is $500. This is certainly overpriced, but I believe the product is best in class for a 22" tablet. Time will tell what the lifetime of the product is but I expect it will last a long time, especially since the display does not use OLED technology.
The Apex of tablets
Save for this. It is, without a doubt, the best tablet I've used. I went to school for tra-digital animation and have had the chance to try many other students tablets and then I come back to this one and it just has that polish that you won't find anywhere else. I own a Wacom-16 and while its a solid product, I always was thinking I'd like it to be just a bit bigger. The 24 solves that while looking sharper with 4k and the glass panel feels great. If you are palm heavy on the canvas like me you'll need a drawing glove as my sweaty paws like to stick. I wouldn't have it any other way though, my 16 has scratches like crazy after just a few months of use and yet my 24 pro has not even a blemish a year later.Also, the 24 is big. I almost went in for a 30"+ but my god I'm happy I didn't cause this beast barely fits in my setup with another monitor. This thing is like 27" across, wider than most people use for their everyday computer monitor. You'll need their stand too, the Ergotron arms are mixed reviews and getting the Wacom branded stand was without a doubt the best purchase I've ever made alongside this tablet.
unacceptably poor PPI (pixel per inch ratio) - blurry screen
This is Wacom's poorest effort to forward their 16 inch lineup. The color is ok. Industrial design is very nice. But PPI (pixel per inch) is so bad, it's very unpleasant to work with when switching eyes from Wacom's screen to MacBook retina display (or even to 27 inch LG 4k display) - is like switching a pair of glasses from seeing sharp to a slightly blurry vision. I was very surprised. Huion got Wacom beat in this area. Having IPad Pro next to it, a super tablet computer, that costs less, with remarkably beautiful screen and pen experience, makes Wacom feel outdated and highly overpriced for such poor PPI. Also the pen buttons, felt very flimsy. I own 3 of Wacom IntuosPro tablets, I love them, but display is not worth the $ Wacoms asks for it.
Very Disappointed
When I received the item there was already some scratchs on the top. I thought this was still bearable until I found that follow the instruction and allowed all of the permissions but the tablet did not response at all.
Worth the money...
If you can afford this - or do what I did and finance via Bolo over 12 months with no interest - this is a great product.Yes, the touch screen is, well, very touchy. I wear the glove when I plan on using it. I never wore the glove previously. I have owned the Cintiq 16 and the Huion GT-191v2 previously. Both are great tablets - although the Huion's quality re drawing smoothly and its color reproduction is definitely in step with its low cost (but a perfect beginners tool). The Cintiq 16 just wasn't as accurate/smooth for drawing as this 24 Pro and, the space was way too tight I found after using for a while.Again though, the Cintiq 16 is fine quality wise - its just too small I found.
Dead pixel, ghosting, lack of quality control.
This is a re-release of Wacom's previous Cintiq 16 Pro.Color accuracy is great, as per usual with Wacom. However, the screen on my unit has a dead pixel in the middle of the screen. Also, there seems to be a lot of screen ghosting when moving around a canvas or moving the pen cursor across the screen. It's a big distraction.They added buttons on the back of the device which... was a strange move because you can't tell which button you're pressing until you're moving your fingers all around the back - awkward. And they aren't labeled in front so you have to remember which is which.16" is the sweet spot for tablets IMO and Wacom knows that and priced this pro model accordingly. It might not the worth the price of entry. I'd never buy a Huion but Wacom might be loosing it's touch with this one.
