    guys if you wanna get into digital art, please get an intuos first (not the pro). theyre under $100 and even cheaper on ebay (got a medium for $40) so if you discover youre not into digital art you wont feel bad for spending $100's on a screen tablet. if youre into digital art after a couple months get a cintiq 16, its perfectly big enough and people WAY over exaggerate the lack of lamination.

      @@danielrko9895 trust me, the resolution here matters more here than 15 frames over the golden 60 line. The pixels are too noticeable when you already have other drawing tablets, like ipad pro or normal monitors which exceed the old norm of 1080p. And here, when drawing, you notice these pixels and color defusing too easily. It's first beyond 4k that would be hard to notice, but here, it sadly still is very easy to notice.
      Also I already got the 16" one, it's noticeable there. A bigger screen at same resolution, would only make it worse.
      This would have been perfect place for Wacom to make a new 1440p standard monitor, at a super good pricing. But more so to usher in a new standard in screen resolution.
      I'm mostly simply disappointed, because this just means that they want to keep their overpriced premium ground, as long they can, before alternatives breach their sacred ground.

    For anyone who is interested in purchasing this tablet, here is my opinion.. I honestly think the tablets fantastic! I've just purchased it, and I absolutely love it so far. No issues, I've yet to find anything lacking about it. I honestly don't understand the salt in the comment section. My guess is people are looking for reasons to feel better for not being able to afford it? The screen feels great, its even scratch resistant. Pen pressure is fantastic, and my brush quality has been so much better. I'm extremely happy with this tablet, it was definitely worth the price to me.

Probably the regular nib is harder/smoother and glides over the rough screen texture. Strange, but might make sense. Even stranger that they seem to include a felt tip nib. Maybe you can reach out to their support and get a second answer and opinion. I am really curious. Thanks in advance!

      My question: 1. Wacom Cintiq 16 does not have a protective coating and, as the reviews show, it is possible to scratch the work surface with a pen. Is there a protective glass for this model and where can I buy it? - The support team answered me: Wacom 16 does not imply the use of protective coatings. We recommend the use of felt tips. 2. Is it possible over time to replace the top layer on which they draw, how and how much it costs? - The support team answered me: In our service center, such a service is not provided - it is possible to replace the display module in the European service center.
      For the price it is approximately (logistics - € 170, module - € 600).

      Market saturation most likely. 15 years ago I knew no one who had another 21UX, because they were 10,000 dollars. These days they're a lot more common, I have an all in one for working while on holidays, one of these 22in and a brand new as a backup, everything is installed and ready to be used in case the other two fail mid-job. Personally I found ipad pro to be terrible so I don't think it did anything to influence Wacom's price point.

    I'm quite happy that Wacom decide to release a "budget" Cintiq still, which speaks volumes on how well competitors like Huion and XP-PEN are doing that kind of "pressured" Wacom enough to release this. While the prices still can't be as low as Huion's new Kamvas 22 with laminated screen, I guess that's good news for people who rather stick with a Wacom, hahah.
    Still think the Cintiq 16 is a more "beginner friendly" option imo, I wish Wacom would've release a non-Pro Cintiq 13 to update their oldest "lowest budget" Cintiq instead. Or they could've do a 2K screen to compensate this non-laminated screen nor have advantage over other competitors on that price :/

Trust me, if you're just a hobby artist, a 15 or 16 inch screen is quite big enough already.

      In the other side, if you aren't a hobbyist, but an old, hairy grunt (it works so even if u ain't hairy) orc, u'll prefer quite a lot having the real state of 22 (or even bigger). Simply, after my 10 - 12 hours of many days (with a minimum of 8) the tension over neck and back is WAY less on a large (22 is not really large, btw) pen-display than on a 16. I've professionally worked on a small Cintiq, I do know what am talking about. Also, for gesture. You get it easier to draw from the shoulder, so. Even if from the wrist/elbow. Easier on the eyes after many hours (even after some minutes). You would end up preferring 22 over 16 yes or yes. If you do not plan to evolve ever from hobbyists, then yeah, I'd agree. But you evolve if u put time into it, so...

      Just some cable fitting plasticky things you can buy for 3 dollars a pack will do. And universal cables will be cheaper to replace later on, specially after some years. Even more, with the other thing, if only the HDMI one was wrecked, you'd have to replace the whole thing. I don't give relevance to that matter.

    Thanks for the review. I purchased the 32” Cintiq Touch (DTH3220) in March 2019. I previously owned the 24” and loved using it for the ten years I had it. Tragically after six months with the new 32” Cintiq, I started to see what looked like pixelation or fixed pattern noise that covered about 1/3 of the screen. I sent the display to Wacom and pleaded with them to replace it. Instead I was told they would repair it with a “refurbished display”. Needless to say I was not impressed with my brand new display getting a used part. Fast forward to April 2021 and I have again sent my display back to Wacom for the exact same issue! Anyway I hope you don’t have any issues, but I’d be curious to know if you do.

    @elad884 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Where I live the new Cintiq 22 is priced around the same as the old 22HD which makes me wonder - which one of them do you think is better?
    You see, when the 22HD released (I think in 2012?) wacom didn't actually have a "pro" line, so it technically was the previous generation of the current "Cintiq pro" - and therefore it comes with a few features and extras that are not included with the new value tablets. For example, the 22HD has an entirely different stand which allows rotation and it comes with built-in express keys which saves up the need to buy the additional wacom's remote.
    The screens' resolutions are the same, so as I see it, the only downside of going with the 22HD over the new Cintiq 22 is the pen, which has "only" 2048 pressure levels. My current tablet (intuos 4) also has the same 2048 levels and it served me well over the years, so I don't really know how important is that number and how much I'm actually missing by not upgrading to a new one.
    As of today I can't really afford neither of them, but just to fill up my curiosity - putting aside the alternatives from Huion and such, what do you think are the downsides of going with the old 22HD over the new 22? (and vice versa).
    And on the same topic, just my suggestion, but maybe it could be a nice idea for a video - to check up older tablets and see how they hold up today, when they can be found for much cheaper prices than the ones they had on the initial release, and make an actual attractive alternative to the new "cheap" ones.

    • @thebradcolbow
      @thebradcolbow  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's a GREAT question. I haven't looked at all the specs like screen color and everything. But the 2 big differences are that the pen on this new one is better, more pressure. But I don't think that's as big a feature as some folks to. And also the shortcut keys. If I was choosing between the 2 I might go with the older because for me the shortcuts are more important than the better pen. But which is better for you is really up to what you need in something like this.

      I have the gaomon pd1560 which also uses huion drivers and it stopped working after 2 years. It started to have dead pixels in the middle of the screen. Meanwhile, my wacom intuos 3 still works and it's over 10 years old. Wacom may be expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for and it's actually cheaper in the long run because they last for decades. Unlike the Chinese knock off, you're going to keep buying them every 2 - 3 years and it will add up more than the wacom you deemed expensive.

    Wait a sec... the Pro 24 is laminated? I thought it still had an air gap. Mostly because I’ve seen complaints on reddit from people who have found specs of dust or hair underneath their screens. They’re using the Pro 24, so the only way for stuff to get under the glass would be because the screen isn’t bonded.

    Things that artist needs to know if they live on a dry area, will this cintiq heat up? Probably no. I had a cintiq 22hd (old one) and man i didnt knew if i was drawing or baking cakes, that thing heated up a lot. Same goes for cintiq 16 pro, that line of tablets the touch creates a lot of heat, your hand will be sweating while using this and your eyes will dry a bit, not as much as old cintiq 22hd.
    Now i use a cintiq 16(cheaper version) that i love, it doesnt heats up, hand is always cold, so you wont heard annoying fan at the back like the pro ones. If cintiq 22hd 2019 has same screen as cintiq 16 it will be working on a cold screen with no noise at all.
    That is a big plus for me. Yeah it has less contrast on screen because of the protective film, colors might look a bit muddy, but its perfect for me.
    PLUS: some softwares like Corel painter are still not that good in 4k, working in 4k demands more processing power to the computer, i work faster in hd tablets that i had with my pro version. So dont get discouraged if it doesnt has 4k built in it.

    The most important thing about wacom products that not many actually talk is the pen offset calibration, this may not be laminated but i can assure you the pen cursor is dead spot on the tip of the pen, while on the Xp pen artist 15.6 pro which i also purchase 3 months ago is fully laminated but the pen cursor is offset buy 2 to 3mm, does the laminated display help in the offset issue absolutely not, this was i found out after i bought the XP pen thinking that the cursor will always be on the tip of the pen but it wasn't and i learned the hard way. The gap of the glass and the display is minimal on the Cintiq 22, theres no offset calibration issues with wacom devices but the chinese alternatives have struggled with it for years. Parallax is just the screen gap and is not something you should worry about but calibration offset is a line art artist worst nightmare.

After a pair of weeks (many years ago) it became natural (of course, I relocate some inches the tablet when I need to type, to see it in front of me. But I have a large desktop, even another table forming an L with my table, over which part of the keyboard rests while drawing. And that other table is a trad. animation table, with the transparent glass, able to be tilted, etc. Currently is space for my books, ref material, book of CMYK samples, eventually for the calibrator, the cam, external HDs, sketches, keys, tea cup...hehehe.
