New & Improved from Wacom: The Cintiq Pro 27” Creative Display

[@ArtPoetryImages]

So glad B&H was ahead of the games with a full review. A magical place to try and buy your Wacom products.

[@AceLive_]

I love it, i love the new design, and the updated pen, etc but... however.... I'll skip this and continue my love using my Cintiq 32 Pro. Here's the reason why I'm skipping this and these are all my opinion. This is coming from an artist standpoint usage. I mainly use my drawing tablet for illustration, Digital art/painting, landscaping, 2D animation, 3D animation, 3D modeling, CAD, video editing, music editing, and manga... so general use I could say. 1) Removal of Eraser - The thing that makes me stick to the wacom all these years and hesitant to buy Huion, XP-pen and other alternatives is the Wacom Pen and it's uniqueness. The eraser is a big part of my workflow. I'm not just a digital artist, I'm also a traditional artist so it is a disappointing downgrade. The 3rd button is unnecessary upgrade. We already have 3D Pen from Wacom. 2) The Price - I got the 32Pro directly from wacom for $3.2k plus taxes and shipping total of $3.6k now if you add the new price, you would ended up $3.8k or even $4k depending on which part of country/region are you on. Also the price... I'm pretty sure, the reduce bezel, heightened refreshrate, buttons, etc. doesn't really make and add to the new price they're asking. I feel as if the old pro models offers more. i know this is wacom but $3.5k, yeah with the eraser gone, i might really welcome huion or xp-pen. At half the asking price or even quarter, they offer more and is improving. Sooner, they will crush wacom. I can't wait for that to come until wacom ups their game. 3) The Stand - The price wasn't disappointing already, the stand doesn't come with it and the stand cost as about buying a Cintiq 16. Shame on you wacom. I will not pay for the stand and I really will not recommend it. Finding an alternative is always great, the arm usage is also great but when you don't like wiggling of the tablet, people usually get the stand the is firm on the desktop table where it minimized the shaking. You seriously asking separate payment for the stand, no way when we all think the bulk of the price, you would think the stand comes with it. Nope, pay another half a grand to get it. BS I'd say. 4) USB connectors and removal of Displayport support - You know what really sucks is if you're stuck with a graphic card... usually high end the offer mostly displayport than HDMI. Without it present, you will rely on converter or change your GPU. I know it won't that much of an issue after all most integrated graphics and GPU now adays comes with one or two HDMI ports but to tell you the truth, if you're using multiple monitors like me who is using those HDMI ports and my Cintiq 32pro using the Displayport, this is a downgrade. Also the USB connector since the Cintiq24HD was a great addition. I know it's a small thing to ask but come on man, they're asking you a price increased by couple hundreds that you need to buy Cintiq Pro 32 only to be met with this downgrade. You should demand more the money they ask. This is a no brainer. The removal of it including probably the SDCard reader is another downgrade that we will probably see in the future cintiq. 5) The Expresskeys - If Expresskey remote is still valuable then I'd say, if I ever buy one of this one, I'll probably rely on the remote. Hell no you think those 4... 8 buttons is a revolutional upgrade. Even an Xbox controller offers more of the button than that. No more of scrolling? Yeah, you will need to buy that express key remote from them. This is an insulting upgrade. You wanna know what a professional looking tablet looks like? Look back at the old Cintiq24HD. It has those buttons in front of you, it has everything an artist can hope for. They even offer a touch version of it and it looks nice. I kinda wish we have those back instead of express key remote but we're all stuck with the remote. For the most part of my CIntiq32 Pro usage, I'm kinda get a hang of using the remote minus the fact that it always seems to run out of charge rather quickly, turns off on it's own, and the annoying part where it crash and if you didn't save your settings, you will have to remap the whole entire thing again. Again, I still prefer the looks of the CIntiq24HD than the newest pro models. This newest version they offer however is very insulting to the old time wacom user. Even the Cintiq12wx that I've used for many years before upgrading to 24HD is still looking professional. Wacom, what the hell are you trying to pull out here? You supposed to appeal to the artist not to the general android or ipad tablet users. If you're competing with these tools to pull out these decision then beware, huion and xp-pen are moving further. They have more upgrades over the years. I prefer and recommend wacom all these years but these newest addition makes me worry a bit about the future of wacom. it's futuristic in a way it's heading towards general tablet users not artist. Sorry, this is my opinion why I'm skipping this and all likes of the future tablet that is gonna be equivalent to this. I would get it if they released a 27 version but similar to 24 and 32. Although I'm liking my 32 a lot and probably will never trade it with anything, the closest I can trade it for is 27. That's the size the looks perfect enough for desk usage and multiple screen usage. 32 feels really big but I can manage. But with this 27 they gonna release, I can't wait for people reviewing it but for my first impression and looks of it, this is not for me. If you have a 32Pro, don't get this. This is a waste of money. If 120hz is the only thing that will convince you, I'll tell you, I own a screen with 240hz and in comparison on my works on 3D still relies on your GPU. If you're have a slow end GPU anyways, why bother getting a 120hz, it's pretty pointless and from my perspective, the only benefit you will get from 120hz is the stroke accuracy and speed. Those who work slow will probably not even noticed the difference between 120 and 60 but to those sketch savage who challenge themselve to sketch Monalisa under 1 minute will probably benefit a lot on 120hz. So again, this is my opinion and why I'm skipping this. I laid out my argument so feel free to comment yours and why you disagree with me and if you do agree comment it anyways. Pls, note, no hate comments however. Peace C:

[@M3K1E]

Heyo! Just some thoughts on this. I think, Cintiq Pro 27 is overkill for the average artists who kept using older Wacom devices, and what's more reasonable is that Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra costs $750 (or $1050 for 512gb) and still uses Wacom digitizer since they've been working for over 10 years.

[@AceLive_]

@@M3K1E Yeah, for average artist it is overkill but for someone who does animation or even 3D modeling this is a must. I do 2D and 3D animation and i'll tell you, it's much easier on a big screen than that 16 inch Mobile Studio Pro I have. While I have my MSP16 on the go, at my studio it's the 32 I used for the entire project. I used to have a 24 inch screen but old Cintiq with many buttons, I really wish the wacom stick to those kinds of designs. The express keys on the cintiq does speed up my workflow especially 3D modeling with lots of complicated keys to press, minimized by shortcuts on express keys. While express key remote does the job, it isn't comparable to how those keys are active in front of you. I just felt as if, they are marketing this to regular users of tablet like surface pro, galaxy tabs, and ipads and not artist who really so much on both accuracy and speed. I'll probably have a hard time leaning on my tablet without the bezels present and will forced to lean towards my desk and without a sturdy stand, it might wiggle wiggle wiggle. I agree, I have the Galaxy Tab S7 Plus and even the Galaxy Fold 3, both I draw on but only use it at work during breaks to doodle or do some storyboards because that's pretty much what I use them, sketches and doodles. Mobile Studio Pro is just too heavy and expensive to be even bringing somewhere and scared I might drop it. Still one of the greater portable I have but I was in love with Tab S7+ from on the go. My apologies if my response is a paragraph. C: It might be long but in actuality, it's just a minute of conversation xD

[@stowlo]

I really like the large bezel on the 24. It gives stability when you are drawing near the edge of the screen. If this one doesn’t have a fake that kicks on that would be nice. Crazy that the monitor is louder than my computer!

[@jal051]

Yeah. These thing won't be portable in any case. Bezels aren't a problem. They are actually a nice thing to have.

[@Gumpa2]

The 120 hz is the right step. What I dont like is, because of the smaller bezels, it will be harder to draw on the very edge, as the bigger frame allowed the hand to rest somewhere. I am also sceptic about the buttons on the rear, I do like the idea, but there are way too few buttons! I use a Razer Tartarus with my Cintiq 32, as the reomote often was not ergomic or offer enough buttons, but with this grip only effectivly having 4 buttons, It is not enough for many functions. They should have mad that modular, too, so people cann also customize these buttons. I always wished there were like a layout as on the accordion, with just small buttons, but awful many. Lets see. The price also rose up quite a bit I feel. The 32 inch was already crazy expensive, but this is smaller, but also more expensive without any stand. Dont know how I feel about the pen. What alway bothered me with normal wacom pens was, that I could not use them at a very low angle, like a pencil a bit "sideway" as the angle on the point was to flat. Don't know how they did it with this one.

[@ThinkTankIllustration]

3500 no stand wow!

[@CashmereSky]

Looks like many welcome upgrades as I expected Wacom’s next move was high refresh rate. However, I’ve been VERY happy with my Pro 24 for the last few years. I’m just curious how quiet the fans are on the 27.

[@jal051]

Honestly, as long as they keep it really cool, I don't mind the noise.

[@VanAnimation]

@@jal051 I have the Cintiq Pro 24 too for few years and I really don't mind the noise :)

[@supremepc6298]

Way overkill for my needs. But i am looking for a 4k tablet, but my budget is well under 1k.

[@ignorantboxing]

​@@supremepc6298 wanan buy my 16 inch wacom 4k tablet? Lol

[@jal051]

Those express keys seem super uncomfortable to me. On the other side, I love that the new pen can get thinner by removing the foam thingies. I hate the old thick pens. They are made for people who grab their pens very tight, but they are super uncomfortable if you hold them light, like I do. I've always removed the plastic cover and "reconstruct them" a little with modelling mass to get a thin version of the pens. As for vessels. I don't see thin vessels as an advantage. I actually think big vessels are a nice thing to have on these type of big tablets. But it isn't a big deal in any case.

[@davidhillmanillustrator5089]

Not crazy about the new ergo stand. While the older ergo stand is heavy, I love the way I can adjust it so that my 24 is almost like a lap board.

[@advanches]

The reduced bezels are really nice. My Pro 24 is bigger and heavier than a 27 inch monitor . Was hoping for the next Cintiqs to feature a mini LED display for true HDR like the Macbooks (for the price, would seem reasonable). I'm curious if this one also has super loud fans or hopefully no fans at all.

[@JGonzalezArt]

In another review, it was mentioned that the fan noise was there but not very loud. That’s up to interpretation though. I don’t know if it’s worth using a decibel meter to get some real numbers but that data could be useful to some users.

[@MrJBARRON]

I was stoked to buy one until learning that it ditched the remote, as if 4 buttons on a funky pistol grip is going to somehow replace the convenience of having 16 buttons and a touch ring on the remote.

[@xorpen]

10:42 that's some impressive drawings, good job!

[@DianteEx]

I have to save for the 24incher but when they announced this was like "oh ok, I'll just get this" but after seeing that price tag I'll think I'll just stay with the 24in one. I guess Luxury comes in stages too. Nothing like seeing the best and then seeing there's a platinum level!

[@PHlophe]

you are loaded !

[@turtlemop8712]

While the smaller bezels look nice and make it smaller, the wide bezels of the previous model provided an area for your palm to rest on while interacting near the edge of the screen which I think I’m going to miss

[@kronkilton2153]

With all respect to the designers I prefer the 24 version more. It feels like they could’ve left wider bezels and just make it thiner. White indicator with the power button looked and worked more organically. It looks like a simple monitor but it doesn’t give off those apple display luxury vibes. Parallax reduction is great though. Finally…

[@stevekdigitalworx]

I'm reading the "in the box" description correctly, in that it doesn't come with the stand?

[@thomastuorto9929]

I believe the stand has always been an option/accessory.$$$ bling. Like buying a base Apple or Dell, or….

The Wacom site lists response time as 10 MS. Also, did you find the touch improved from the 24/32 Pro? I could work with it but its a lot slower compared to something like an iPad.

[@GridPowerLLC]

4K+120Hz+Touch Screen=💸💸💸

[@Psil0]

If it had slightly lower response time it could have replaced my gaming monitor as well as my 24 Pro...

[@GridPowerLLC]

@@Psil0 I checked the price, which need around USD$3500...

[@Psil0]

@@GridPowerLLC Again, that would be fine as I could resell my Wacom 24 Pro and gaming monitor for about that price, but since that new Wacom's response time isn't good enough for competitive gaming, I'll give it a pass.

[@Ahzahail]

I'm a tattoo artist. I have the 27QHD at home, and a 22HD at work. I do most of my drawing at home, and if the client needs some small changes I do that at work. I like almost all of the features on this. I liked the bezel on the 27QHD, it gives my hand a place to rest when I'm on the far side of the screen. Not a deal breaker, but not right for me. I am sure others will like it. It will take up less room that is a benefit of this change. Next the buttons on the back.... I don't know how to feel about that. The 27QHD has the remote, that is 18 buttons and a touch strip. The 22HD has 18 buttons and 2 touch strips. This has 4 primary buttons for your Non dominant hand mostly. The other 4 will only be useable when you set your pen down. I guess I could go back to keyboard shortcuts all the time instead of sometimes.... The screen is a much needed improvement!!! The pen seems like an improvement, I'd rather have the eraser back though AND 3 buttons. I really wish there were more choices for diameter of the grip. In the tattoo industry we use big 1 inch grips. They were originally used to pull the weight of the machine back in the hand. We also realized that by having a larger grip, it reduced fatigue in the hand and we had less incidents of Carpal tunnel. I could just loose all the buttons to buy an0other grip for it... It would be cool as hell to have that option.

[@OrionsArm]

Best review on the internet for this product and it’s not even close! Thank you! Answered so many questions I had that other reviewers did not answer!

[@BandH]

Glad it was helpful!

[@3DJay429]

hmmm not sure about this - feel disappointed been waiting ages for a new wacom pro line, but this doesn't look too thought out and for the price point its a no go.

[@thesevenpens]

Brave innovations and choices from Wacom, in my opinion. Will be interested in seeing the reaction.

[@JH-pe3ro]

Wacom's staying competitive, that's for sure. Will I get it? No, I like small screens for digital art, as my recent XP-Pen Artist 10 purchase suggests. Instead of one big screen I set up multiple smaller ones plus the keyboard on a larger slanted surface, and that keeps me looking and moving around. I like having the screen feel like a sketchbook, and there are some ergonomic benefits because you literally move your hand less to do anything, although I have to full-screen toggle when I really want to draw.

[@uctrongo1178]

I feel that this version has a design that is not as good as the Cintiq Pro 24 version. The new Cintiq Pro 27 has a rather fragmented and inconsistent design. The rear keys are really unnecessary because most of the time we still have to use the keyboard. I'm using a Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 and I'm happy with it, I have no intention of upgrading to Cintiq Pro 27

[@Gumpa2]

I have the 32 inch, and I would probably also skip this version. The 120 hearts is nice, but the other features don't really do it for me. As you said, the buttons on the back will probably be barely used, because 4 just is not enough. I use my tablet with the Tartarus Keypad, which is also not ideal, but the Remote had lag and it really annoyed me to charge it all the time.

[@SirDuksalot]

Understood. I own the MobileStudio pro because the physical keys improved my workflow. As a digital painter, I prefer the new design.

[@ewolam]

Those rear keys can’t be used when we rotate the Cintiq to portrait mode! When the keys are at the top and the bottom of the screen, we spread out arms to the top and the bottom of it is kind of silly. I would rather use the remote and put the remote at the bottom of the screen or aside for the keys!

[@Drayonis]

I prefer the last model. Wider bezels were fine especially with the remote.

[@adamparata5041]

Nice overview! A lot of great updates! I'm curious if Wacom addressed a few details that annoyed me enough to sell my Cintiq 24 pro? Does the etched glass still cause the coloured noise on the screens surface? This was really exhausting for my eyes. And how are the fans performing relative to the older models? Cheers.

[@baddabaddabaddaswing]

I'd like to know too. I'm going to assume the etched glass still gives the rainbow effect, as I've never seen a device with etched glass that didn't have it.

[@adamparata5041]

@@baddabaddabaddaswing Yeah you're right, I assume it's just an inherent outcome as the light refracts through the rough surface. The rainbow/refraction effect problem was made worse by the offset/parallax between the etched glass and the physical panel. My eyes would get confused between which layer to focus on, the noise or the pixels. The work around was to draw at arms length but this is tiresome, especially for professional demands and/or long sessions. I really hope they get this right or at least improve it.

Holy cow it’s $1500 more than the 24 inch! At least include the stand with it. The heck. And it’s just a monitor, it has no computer built in. At least with the older ones you could put a computer in there. So does that mean they will be discontinuing their older 24 inch pro soon? My guess their plan is to fool people into spending $3500 first then later than sell the $2000 24 inch version.

The price is way to much for me, and I don't think it's that great just for a bigger size and a few upgrades, but maybe it's because I haven't tried the cintiq myself

From what I can gather on the confusing website and other videos they published, this won't be compatible with the Flex Arm, and it doesn't look like the Flex Arm can be adjusted to fit the VESA standard. So if you don't want to buy the dedicated Ergo stand that takes up a bunch of desk space, then you're stuck with an Ergotron arm which isn't designed to go low to the table like the one they designed for Wacom. Shame, guess I'll hold off on buying one until they figure that out. Edit: Maybe you can convert the arm with this : HX Heavy-Duty Tilt Pivot from Ergotron

@@htsunmiku Wacom is still the best by some margin. They just haven't addressed their pricing, and so that doesn't really matter anymore. A 50% price drop is where things should be. Of course, they probably wouldn't be able to maintain their current levels of income then. Perhaps they need to streamline their operation, undercut all competition by offering an affordable 2.5K model, around $500 - 800, and sit back as they regain total domination of the market. A 1080p tablet going for $1000 is daylight robbery, especially when others are offering 2.5K displays for much less. Looks to me as though they're not really that concerned about mainstream customers. If Huion can offer 4K displays for $1000, surely Wacom can follow suit. Seems as though business these days is no longer that much about being the best, and more to do with being the greediest.

Still very thick for just a monitor and, yes, I know they have to accommodate the hand fit (unusefull, in my opinion…) and the monitor support. The design doesn’t impressive me much as well as the resolution, still 4K. For a specialized niche product €4.500 plus €600 for the stand is way too much, specially in this recession period we’re going through. Sorry Wacom you have to do better, price wise…

[@screenname1]

All they need to do is offer a 2K display for $500. Why do they keep messing about with products only .1% of the market can afford? I suppose it must be working for them more to overcharge and have low overheads, than to go the opposite route.

[@14bqdonk]

Is this new bigger version of Steam Deck?!

[@BandH]

The Wacom Cintiq Pro 27 Creative Pen & Touch Display BH #WADTH271K0A is not related to any Steam Deck product. >Mark

[@seathwolf5610]

Unaffordable for 99.99% of people. Wow. But looks very nice.

[@liothomasart]

Nobody puts their hands on the back. Streamdeck 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@EASss]

good but the price

[@theworldsworstperson]

"... The 120 refresh rate makes this monitor ideal for gaming" - Proceeds to get 45 fps in Doom Eternal .

[@jal051]

I wouldn't waste any time gaming in a $4000 monitor, LOL. Save those expensive pixels life for work ^_^'

[@ArtofNock3d]

I think wacom you need to think more about the price man way to expensive for just monitor right now and also your product are getting more problem and issue on screen day by day

[@PaandaCat]

So could I play Roblox in it 😅

[@booya2k]

Too bad they took out the eraser from the pen.

If this has 24"s horrible fans, gonna suffer a major L. I sold mine just because of this. I get they may need fans but they would full blast in just regular web browsing...at random times which was even worse.

[@tested211]

Agree. A shame that they still include fans in this latest generation. They do need to take a serious look at this: Their competition is fanless at 4k. Many of us digital artists that can afford and would like this model won't buy it because of the fan noise. For something that needs to last a long time it would be better to avoid moving parts altogether. Fans only get worse with age as the bearings wear and they accumulate dust.

[@Humboyz]

how many human organs will it cost?

[@jal051]

3 and a half human organs.

[@TOKYOminttt]

600 nits was a miss

[@incyphe]

Honestly, the price is quite reasonable for what it offers. Wacom knows a lot of people who use this type of device aren't actually that well off.

[@jovontowns591]

3500!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! VR Sculpting is better. I'd rather wait on the new $1500 Oculus Headset and continue modeling in Adobe Medium. I currently have the 24-inch pro and the 21 Cintiq; they are just collecting dust. Anyone in the market. REACH OUT

[@vzfcus2303]

How much for the 24 pro😮

[@jay-loo4236]

interesting innovation, but it looks straining to draw on top of it for hours

[@sarayel]

what i will doo? i will paint by greg rutkowski

[@kamanhakuramatata]

Play ps5 is ok???

[@ashleyfox1714]

When I first saw the pictures in my news feed, I thought it was some Chinese, cheap, no-name tablet that wanted to look cool. The technology may be new and impressive, but the tablet itself looks cheap, uncomfortable, and stupid. The pen also looks so that it will not be comfortable to lie in hand. So if it's 100% yes for new technologies. It is 100% no for design and implementation. Looks cheap and uncomfortable. And what is it? Free ads on steam dec? Disrespect.

[@Artist1974CH]

Just because anything coming from Japan, it is high quality to you? China does not always make cheap stuff! I am so sorry that American white male supremacist trained you and everyone else's mind to support products from countries that he occupying. Yes occupying! He thinks Japan belongs to him. USA has never put any effort to create great digital tablets. Microsoft failed! Apple does not even count. It took an Australian company (Procreate) to create a software for IPAD for artists to do artwork. Apple wouldn't create software like that if it is saves its stupid CORPORATE AMERICAN life.

[@cubapawlac]

the stand looks very heavy

[@frankenjstein9371]

Lovely but waaaay to expensive.

[@HusniArsyah]

`Only Wacom can kill their own product !!` 🤣 A graphic Tablet is not like another PC component (For Example Processor, RAM, Motherboard, and Graphic Card) that can really be `Obsolete` in the term of functionality. Meanwhile competitor like XP-Pen and Huion offer way cheaper prices and they seem not really bother with any Wacom invention 😂 Why should bother with the new products if Wacom cannot lower the older products? Oh yeah I forgot, this is not a Graphic Card like Nvidia RTX or AMD Radeon... 🤣

[@AA-rc8uy]

and 400 nits lol

[@eddyalvaross2195]

A drawing tablet only for rich people.

[@Dave_Espy]

It's pronounced WAY-COM
