I really do like the 12WX, but my frustration with the alignment led to me try using the display as a traditional tablet to draw on my primary monitor. I was much happier working this way as I wasnt visually expecting the pen and the display to be ali...

When Wacom first experimented with building a monitor into a pressure-sensitive graphics tablet, the result was an unwieldy, heavy box that fitted neither on the lap nor the desktop. Several versions later and the Cintiq has evolved into a thing of bea...

The Cintiq’s built-in LCD shows you what you’re doing right on the tablet. In graphics applications, traditional drawing tablets give exceptional control beyond mere mousing. But artists have to learn how to move the stylus on the tablet sur...
Drawing and retouching onscreen is as fluid as an analog tool. Slim, manageable tablet shape. Battery-free, cordless stylus registers pressure and angle. Sharp, clear LCD panel.
At edges, onscreen cursor drifts from stylus tip. Whybother software bundle includes outdated programs. Jerky scroll strip registers accidental touches.
The vast majority of the Cintiq 12WX surface feels just like drawing or painting in a sketchbook. The edge-tracking issue disappoints, but the tablet will otherwise delight pros on a small budget and enthusiasts with money to spend...
