Why you should not trust youtube shills:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH1WEYF8rlA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Twy5Wo8m284

Do not worry pressure levels. 1024 is more than enough.
Remember to ignore all chinese shills. They often post paid twitter promos from random artists. It's all shilling, ignore it.

Recommended tablets:

>Screenless:
Used Intuos 3, 4, 5, Pro, One by Wacom

>Display:
Small (10-11"): Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite
Medium (12-16"): Samsung Galaxy Tab S8/S9 Ultra, used iPad Pro 12.9" Gen 1-5
Large (22"+): Cintiq 22, Cintiq Pro 27, used 24 Pro, 27QHD

Avoid:

>XP-Pen, Huion, Gaomon and every other Chinese brand making Wacom imitations
Poor build quality, pens with wavy lines, wobbly nibs, broken tilt, issues registering light pressure, terrible customer support, uncalibrated displays. All Chinese brands have the same problems. Check out the webm to understand how bad they are.
Do not be fooled by myths like "Chink companies are just as good as Wacom now" - they've been saying this for over 10 years, nothing has changed.
Chinese companies have also been proven to shill on 4chan. You will see dozens upon dozens of posts in this thread by a chinese schizo shill, who will either be bitching about the OP, gaslighting as a Wacom fan, making pointless spam posts or giving terrible advice (like recommending Huion). Just ignore and report him.

>New iPads
Massively overpriced and overhyped.

>Microsoft Surface Pro
More optimized for palm rejection than good quality drawing. Wobbly lines when drawing slow and straight.

>Cintiq 13-16"
Completely outclassed by the Galaxy Tab Ultra & iPad

>Lenovo
Worse than Samsung in every way.

You're wrong and an idiot. I've curated these threads for years now and update them as I need to. The simple fact is Chinese tablets just aren't good. Anyone suggesting otherwise is a worst a shill, and at best misinformed and leading people into wasting their money. It always has and always will be Wacom>Apple>Samsung>everything else.

i have draw for a few years, had a lot of tablets, my take including range or need are.

>screenless
there is NOT a single best option than the xp pen deco v 03. is 50 dollars in amazon and is one if not the one with the biggest work area in the market, yes, i have the deco pro which is a few centimeters bigger but there is no huge difference, you can probably pick something even cheaper or second hand online, a lot, and i mean a lot of students buy these for 1 class and after the semester is finished they do not touch them.

>screen tablet
Depending on your budget, the wacom cintiq 16 is the best option by far, but is expensive, for half the price, you can get a xp pen, i have an artist 16, which didnt let me down for years and was worth every cent until i sold it.

>portable
ipad, i know, apple, but there is no better option, these things, specially the old ones are build like trucks, if you take care, i assure you it will last forever. best way to get one is to join facebook market and search for women selling them, they barely use it in general and you can find gems with good condition.
>>
>>7819578
Oh wow a real discussion for once
>Screenless
I agree they are all the same. Intuos Pro is simply unreasonable, 350$ for a black rectangle? No. And literally every other tablet (Huion and Xp-Pen) are using the Ugee technology so they are identical.

Although I don't know if the newer pentech 3/4/whatever feel nicer, but regardless, the pens are servicable, at 60$ you get a 100% functional device you can do anything with. I learned to draw on an old dogshit huion with a battery pen. They sure as fuck came a long way.
Yes the wobble is real and no it doesn't affect the real life performance because you aren't going to draw straight lines by hand without a stabilizer. I used these tablets long before the wobble was discovered, and I had no fucking idea, lol.

>Depending on your budget, the wacom cintiq 16 is the best option by far, but is expensive,
I am waiting for the Huion Kamvas Pro 19 to arrive, but the customs are busy during the holyday season and the Russian post is notoriously shit, i don't know when am I gonna get something I paid 1000$ for.

When It arrives I'm going to review it extensively. I am the first Chang, yes that one who drove the schizo insane.

>know, apple, but there is no better option
Samsung plus and Ultra are perfectly capable. I'm still using the Samsung S7+ I bought when it released with a bluetooth keyboard. In fact i used it for professional work doing the sprites for a VN.

BTW on the topic of wobble.
The schizo is going to say that Intuos Pro allow you to draw without a stabilizer for a real feel.
That's bullshit.

Literally every tablet has wobble, that's a specific of how the digitizers work, however Intuos Pro has a firmware stabilizer built into the tablet. That's why the OSU! players use Bamboo, the Bamboo have a faster response and they also have wobble.

There are no wobble free tablets, there only are tablets with built in stabilizer.
>>
>>7819601
honestly i talk out of the best option from quality or price, i know there are a lot of options and sometimes we have to accommodate to what we have at our reach, nothing wrong with that.

>>7819605
this is one of the biggest lies on this thread, i would pay real money to see the schizo grab a pencil and draw perfect lines to see what excuse they pull off. wobble is a skill issue, no hardware, pick a real inking pen and you will see how little you can blame the tablets

Red lines are done with a ruler, blue lines are freehand. If you zoom in really fucking closely you can see there's like 1 pixel waviness to them, both the ruler and the freehand lines wave very subtly.
Yes it's real and not it's completely unimportant. You would have never noticed that if you weren't told it's there and it's completely not relevant to real drawing

Red line is the mathematical straight edge (starting point + shift click to end point)
Blue is using a straight edge

at size 20 for 600dpi and no smoothing I can sorta-almost see a hint of wobbling. Anything smaller and I can't see it.

Man these threads are bizarre, feels more like some schizo /g/ shit than an art thing. I've been using the Wacom Intuos Small for years now and it feels fine (the white and black one from circa 2018, I don't even know the official name).

I'm a /beg/ looking for a tablet that will be good all the way up to at least /int/. Price range is anything up to maybe 200NZD (116~USD). The OP says chinks make knock-offs so I assume Wacom is good? I'm eying the Wacom Intuos Medium Black cause the small seems too small (152.4 x 94.0 mm holy moly). Is it worth getting the OTG adapter? I don't know what that would be useful for.
Do I even need to be thinking about this? I assume worrying about the quality of your drawing tablet is like worrying about the quality of your drawing pencils (unless you're good enough to notice the difference it doesn't matter).

This is purely an Xpiss-pen/huishit issue, Wacom doesn't do that.

>>7824949
You can't mix different brands because their drivers override each other. Same happens with Wacom against XP-Pen/Huion/Ugee/Xencelab
>>
>>7824867
You are not buying that. You are buying a XP Pen pro 22-24 or a Huin Kanvas pro 22-24. You will replace that Intuos in less than a year.

Anyone know if you can use different tablets from same brand at the same time? Obviously not 2 people using at the same time. Like Wacom display + wacom screenless. Or XP-Pen display + XP-Pen screenless (eg Artist 16 Pro Gen 2 with Deco Pro Gen 2). Tho I found thesevenpens' writeup saying you could get it working.

Coming from an ancient Cintiq, the Xppen's good enough. It's a matter of how much the video's points bother you. The Chinese brands started getting too expensive for the risk some years back which lowers the appeal. Getting one second hand when you need a display tablet quick beats a new Intuos or saving up for a Cintiq. I'll see how I feel once it breaks (4 years now).

Any screen tablet is slippery when drawing. You just need to get used to it. Or buy a screen protector and change your nibs every 2 weeks if you want some grip. Nothing beats screenless and pc in terms of feel and comfort.

I had an xp pen 13.3 pro and while it was alright a screenless tablet with a larger screen is 5x better.
Really screen tablets are a meme, your hand gets in your way, they have much worse ergonomics too. Also the xp pen wasnt accurate depending on how you had the pen tilted. The tilt function was also really shit compared to my intuos 3. Keep in mind the xp pen 13.3 is an old chink tablet, maybe theyve improved by now. I know ur talking about huion but they are the same thing. Personally id go for a used wacom or a screenless xp pen/huion, screen tablets are a meme. They could be good at 22/24 inches i guess.

Is there anyone out there with a working Huion tablet that's more than five years old?
I have the theory that those shits only have like a 5 year life span and then they just stop working as tablets all together.
I been having constant troubles with my kamvas 13 since I bought it in late 2020. This year it was constant static that didn't let me draw for more than a couple of minutes without having to turn on and off the thing. And now it just says "device disconnected" no matter how many different fixes I try. And I'm still yet to find someone with a working tablet that's moren than five years old. But I did find lots of comments of peopleb talking about their drawing tablets now being used only as a second monitor.
>>
>>7830987
I have picrel since 2021 and i cant find anything else that could beat it in terms of cramming as much as shortcuts + modifers into one device. I've pretty much only use keyboard for typing in layer names. Everything else is just one hand on the keypad and another hand holding the pen. Takes about 1-2 weeks to build a new muscle memory and trying out the best layout but it was worth it.

I've gotten myself an xp pen magic drawing tab this xmas. Its a 1 year old tablet set back to factory setttings.

And I'm sort of disapointed with it. I got infinite painter, which was better than Hipaint (procreate clone). The tablet has a tiny but ever so slightly noticeable lag. For some reason it feels like there's line smoothing applied by default I cannot get rid of. Even writing naturally on it gives me horrendous results. I dont know if this makes a lot of sense, but the lines feel straighter than they should be. to get nice curvy and curly lines I have to step out of my way and give it a lot more effort than on paper.


Is it a hardware thing ? What the fuck ? How can I fix this ? I think its got a guarantee that expires at the end of this year, should I take advantage of this to get a new one ?
Also what the fuck is this retarded new captcha fuckery
>>
>>7831481
Try different apps. And make sure to have stabilizers/smoothing off.
>>
>>7818253

I'm here to tell you guys. if you are planning to get a tablet don't get the chinese tech. Yes, it's cheap for higher spec. But you will regret it. If you cant afford the popular ones. The ipad 11 A16 with a second hand first gen pencil is more than capable. You get the best drawing app and much stable system compared to the chinese brand. You'll get used to the refresh rate and lower storage. You can easily transfer between non apple devices now. And if you don't like the drawing on glass feeling. Get a paperlike screen and some oem apple pencil nib cover. do not get the chinese tablet unless you need higher spec for gaming/emulation. For art purposes get Apple.

You can hover over the tablet with the stylus in order to move the cursor but to actually draw you have to press.

Procreate is great for sketching but is still a niche software so there arent enough tutorials. Also lacks a ton of stuff that Clip Studio has like 3D models.
Clip Studio requires a subscription and the UI isnt the most mobile friendly.
I have an iPad pro and it's FUN to draw on but I usually find myself wishing for a bigger screen and a second monitor for references and youtube help.
>>
>>7832776
I just got a movink pad 11 as a birthday gift recently. Haven't had a dedicated tablet in over a decade and I really like it so far. It has its faults being a little underpowered compared to its competitors and not being able to expand the storage. But thats fine with me since I have a dedicated drawing setup for my pc so I didn't need the best specs and storage.

Really depends what you do, I think the 14 is a good investment if you need something for more then illustrations later down the line. But I dont think the extra specs and utilities should have it worth twice as much.

One of the things I dislike about digital drawing or drawing in general is the lack of workflow. You create your own over time, but my experience with Rocksmith, which streamlines guitar playing for the video game experience, made me a better player and more aware of my mistakes instead of banging my head against the wall trying to figure things out. I think there should be a digital app with a streamlined workflow or a game that simplifies the process. A way to gamify drawing. That's what we need. I don't have to adapt to Krita; Krita needs to adjust to me.

My Kamvas Pro 19 finally arrived, i'm gonna need a bigger desk for it all. I just unboxed and started getting used to it. I'm gonna need a bigger desk for it all.

Well my first impression was the pen. it changed completely again. At this point it's indistinguishable from the Wacom pro line. The nibs are thin and very snugly fit into the case, they don't really move, don't have a give and wobble around while you draw.
The initial activation force is basically not there, the pressure response is very smooth and controlled, both taper on and taper off. The older huions had a rough taper off when releasing the pressure, it's gone. without even tweaking the curve it's perfect out of the box.
The thin pen is anodized aluminum, the regular pen is plastic that feels premium, with a Wacom-style eraser and a third button.

The screen isn't what I expected.
It's calibrated to accurately represent sRGB which looks boring, but the correct kind on boring. If you ever worked on OLED you'd know that it makes you underrepresent the colors and contrast. this is safe. The rough grippy coating doesn't have a rainbow splash effect, instead it has a subtle blur to everything. After working on a smooth Samsung it's slightly disappointing but probably the best way of doing it.

Touch works, the quality depends on the application. Windows itself doesn't have palm rejection, but Clip Studio Paint has it's own touch handling, so as long as you're working in CSP the touch is golden, you're going to love it, just like an enormous iPad.
Photoshop doesn't have that feature but thankfully there's a hardware button that disables touch, you can easily switch it off when you don't need it.

More to come, I just started using it. And I'm already happy.

>and nearly every tablet is noticeable.

It's only noticable if you're looking for it.
Wobble is inherent to the EMR technology, cannot be eliminated, and it's not significant enough to disrupt the actual drawing.

When you are actually drawing a picture, rather than trying to benchmark the tablet you are
A. not drawing straight 45 degree lines with a ruler
B. using a stabilizer and the stabilizers eliminate it entirely
>Bu bu but Wacom Pro
Wacom built the stabilizer into the drivers. the only reason you don't see the wobble is because they are cheating.
>>
>>7836161
Both sounds like a bad idea, but there's something you need to know about the Samsung, and OLED.

OLED fucks you up, it's not fit for the content production.
A. it's oversaturated. I worked on a samsung tablet for years. When a picture looks normal on an overblown OLED it looks dull on a normal screen.
B. OLED crushes the dark values HARD. One time I was commissioned to draw a girl swimming at night and boy was that a fucking nightmare. OLED completely fucked up the dark values and the entire scene was dark, so I had to color it basically blind.

Samsung is a decent tablet with a decent pen, but man, you gotta be wary of the OLED, they simply aren't accurate. Imagine trying to build a house with an incorrect tape ruler.

I got my intuos PTH-851 used for 50 and a pro pen for 30, and they absolutely slap. Just checked eBay, and you can get the tablets with a regular pen used for roughly 60-100 USD, depending on what size you want. Anything above 2048 pressure sensitivity is a gimmick, especially when it comes to Wacom products, though. I've had a few different tablets, Huion, Gaomon, etc. The pens sucked.

Samefag with the PTH-851, which is an older large model. Any other manufacturers are shit, it's all cope. I regret wasting money on the other tablets. They weren't bad tablets, but the pens were horrible. Too light, no grip, and they were flimsy as heck. Don't buy into the Chinese tablet trap just because is 50 percent cheaper. Buy a used tablet instead.

Get one of these felt nibs. Yes the s-pen can use wacom one nibs and it feels like a cheat. I've been using these on a normal glass screen and its surprisingly grippy. Paperlike screens are too finnicky to maintain and they absolutely leave scrathes the more you use. I've been using a felt nib for 2 month and it still works fine, it gets a little bit grippier in fact as the fibers unfurl

Not sure why people are saying anything above 2k pressure is useless, I'm using 12k now and it's a game changer. I can get much more variation in line and opacity and I don't have to press like a gorilla to get max pressure which was causing me pain before after drawing for a few hours

The truth is that every single pen+tablet+nib combination has a different feel. Even two of the same pen can draw differently (speaking from experience)
>>
>>7841650
>>7841656
Everybody I know who uses a large says it's too big and they only use a fraction of it to actually draw.

So either go for a medium or buy yourself a screen tablet. Pro Large is 500$ bucks, for a black rectangle with magnets, it's just unreasonable.

Low end and old screen tablets have more downsides than benefits. The current top offerings? They are a HUGE benefit.

See this >>7838504 It's 800$ and you were thinking about spending 500$ on a black plastic rectangle.

The thing is perfect. It's a 19" 4k tablet with a calibrated IPS display, and touch navigation. The pen is at least as good as the wacom pro line. At least.
>>
>>7842349
Why would I spend 500 on the newest one if I can get the previous (and basically the same) version for 200.
Saves me 600 bucks in comparison to the screen one.

I feel like every drawing lesson always talks about using your shoulders and elbows so I'm not sure if thats actually a problem or more of a meme. But I can see how it might still be too large, I'll check out some reviews of the medium one to see how people use it, it might be a better choice
>>
>>7842359
IDK, you do you but I just don't consider used goods, you never know what you're getting. Maybe it's busted, maybe the USB port is loose, maybe the pen is fucked, it's someone else's scraps and it's still overpriced.
200$ for a screenless? Why? there's literally nothing expensive inside.

>elbows
Actually essential. If you aren't an artist you only have fine control of your fingers and that's too small range of motion.
>shoulder
Relevant to drawing and painting traditionally on an easel. If you intend to become a trad artist and draw on large paper or paint you'll need it. If you wanna focus on digital art and work on a tablet you may skip your shoulder day.

If you were buying for yourself I would tell you to get a huion because it's much smarter. but the gifts are different, you don't gift your family the budget options buy her the current Wacom.

4k is nice you'll be staring at it dead on, not arm's length. Touch is really fucking good if you're working in CSP, not every software supports it but come on CSP is king. And then there are other things like the pen. The pen that comes with the cheap wacom is actually more ass than the chinese pen and the glass is thicker so there's more gap.

>i had a huion display in the past and it felt like cheap chinese caca, i ended up reselling it
They used to suck but they changed HUGELY. Between Huion and the cheap Wacom Huion offers higher quality. At this point they compare to the pro series.

The shoulder thing is absolutely real. When I learned to draw in le art school, we used these big 18"x24" charcoal pads. Switching from a 12" screen tablet to a 21" one really made it so much easier to draw digitally. Just way better than making these miserable little finger twitch strokes all the time.

And to everyone:
My xp-pen was ok. Issue was the usb-c port was too loose. Besides that, same diff. Also my model was probably a 2019? So maybe that's fixed now. I got my cintiq used for $100. It's from 2008, works great. Big 21 inch. So really, just use whatever works.

Screen tablets are only good for sketches and lineart. You don't have many buttons (shortcuts) to work with and have more precision.
Screenless is best for painting, because better ergonomics, easier access to more buttons, better colors (using good monitor).
Bottom line is, all screen tablets can also be used as screenless, so that's the end of a debate.

>half price used Galaxy S6 and S8 on Facebook

I've just been drawing with pencil and paper and looking to buy a tablet to use at work. What stylus would I need to buy? Just the S Pen or is there a better/cheaper 3rd party pen to use? Also what preferably free software can I use on Android?

Direct sunlight is bad for things in general but the IPS don't bur out nearly as bad as the OLED. An OLED would be fucked if it's in the sun, An IPS - not so much.

I just ordered a HUION Inspiroy H640P Drawing Tablet, I’m a newfag and just saw a good deal. Is it shit or will I be replacing it soon? It was cheap so it’s no big deal if I need to get a new one.

Do you guys force proportion or use your full tablet area when drawing? I'm aware that drawing with the full area causes inaccuracy and distortion, but is it worth losing almost a quarter of my tablet's drawing area?

Thank you kindly I'll get a cover for it or flip it over.

I've been drawing today and I must say, if you want to draw as a hobby, nothing too serious, a cheap used tablet with weaker hardware, alongside a cheap capacitive stylus, is really all you need, just get a capacitive stylus with a few different tips so you can choose which you like best, make sure the cheap tablet is in a size you like, and get a matte screen protector.

It feels great.

After some time with a Kamvas Pro 19 4K I can only say that it's fucking perfect.

Everything is right, nothing is wrong.
The pen is basically perfect, it has a separate feature to calibrate the activation force, it was low out of the box, if you calibrate it detects the slightest touch, basically as soon as you touch the tablet it knows.
The screen is amazing, the coating is amazing, the touch navigation is very helpful in Clip Studio. Windows itself and most windows software aren't the best at handling touch, but CSP specifically has it's own touch handling and it's great and if you're going to be using CSP (you are) you really gonna like the touch navigation.

A total recommend, there isn't a but or any kind of compromise caveat about the latest Huion. It's literally as good as it gets.

how much play should be in my pen nub? noobie and I'm trying to determine if the shittiness I feel is do to skill issue, the cheap huion tablet I got, and a worn out nub. when i stick my thumb onto it it definitely feels loose and I can sense the shift side to side, doesn't really have a spring.
>>
>>7850092
Depends on the particular model, the old shitty ones had a lot of wobble, the newer pens are tighter, but it's still a moving part. If there's no spring then there's a piece of tough rubber that serves as one.

Anyway, it's supposed to move a little bit.

Oh hi, Shitzo-kun, it's me Chang, the first one from back then, how long has it been? 6 years? 7?
Remember that time a mod purged your posts and it was half the entire thread, the only posts left were calling you a retard and a shizto? good times friend.

I'm sorry I wasn't visiting very often, because I was busy drawing. And what were you up to? besides trying to comtrol a thread on a dead board and getting laughed at? Have you finally bought yourself a tablet?

I have it's the latest Huion 19 4k and man is it just fucking great. A total recommend. I used to hesitate because back in the past each display tablet came with some drawbacks or compromises, either not a good monitor, or not a good tablet, no option was perfect. Well apparently now they do, I just bought the latest one and it's just perfect, I can confidently recommend it to everyone with no IFs and no BUTs.

Based the Citadel enjoyer. Hope you post that on xhitter so the dev can see

Yes its worth it, also that is the best tablet ever made and that ever will be made, there is no upgrade to it.
Use force proportion, you could move the square to be more in the middle or at the bottom of the area, its best to have the 3 large, the medium is kinda shit.

Both devices are the basic tier wacom, the pen is the exact same, you're only paying for the buttons.

i got my 2025 cintiq 16 and i like it a lot. although i wish it came with a stand and the mini-hdmi cable, but those are my only real complaints. the display is beautiful and drawing on it feels amazing
if anybody has any questions about it just lmk
>>
>>7855202
how much was the cable? 700 is a lot for a 16inch tablet but if I could get it on a sale for like 500-600 including a cable I think Id save up for one
>>
>>7855288
I got it off amazon for about 8 dollars i believe. You could probably find them at a local store for a similar price. It might be a while before it goes on a sale like that though

Looking at a display tablet since I need it to be portable. The S8 models look about my price range. Looking at 2 used models.

Option #1
>S8 w/ Pen - $380 AUD
>Minor Cosmetic Wear (Scratches on screen)

Option #2
>S8 Ultra $550 AUD (No Pen)
>Listed as minor cosmetic wear but unable to tell from photos)
>No pen so need to buy some sort of pen ~$80

Total:
S8: $380 AUD
S8 Ultra: $630 AUD
S8 Ultra cost +$250 AUD

Is the ultra worth an extra $250 for someone just starting out. I'm leaning towards the Ultra for the larger screen since my girlfriend also wants to read books on it but I think she'd also be fine with the smaller S8 screen.

I own an S6 for a while, its pretty small compared to the later ones but its comfortable to draw and read on. I never had an ultra but i can't imagine holding something as big as a folder and as fragile as glass comfortably, not to mention you'd need a laptop bag to carry it anywhere. But if you're serious about drawing often i'd say go for it

display tablets completely change the game. i used to think i hated drawing digitally, what i hated was old-school digitizer tablets.
i've been using a wacom intuos 3 for a couple years before getting an xp-pen artist 22e pro that i've been using for the past 6 years or so. i tried out a huion kamvas rds-220 in a store and the difference is night and day. it's actually kind of nuts how much better it feels than my xp-pen.
i was feeling kinda destitute, since i bought a used cintiq 22HD and it was just worse in pretty much every single way that matters to me compared to the xp-pen. there's tons of problems with that tablet, so it was a little disheartening to discover that there wasn't really an upgrade path. well, turns out, it's been huion all along. do consider giving them a try, if you get one off of amazon you get free returns.

I'm thinking of getting this or the movink 13 so I can bring it around to travel and maybe draw on my bed on a lazy day. But how feasible is it to just take it out the bag and draw? Is it extremely heavy? can you put it on your bed or will it just sink into the mattress and make everything outside of working on your desk unfeasible?
Movink also has potential to use it like a sketchpad which is handy. But the display resolution is so small I can't imagine doing serious work on it.
My main concerns with the cintiq 16 is the lack touch, low resolution, weight, and maneuverability (I want to take it around, maybe even take it around, draw at a friends house or something.)

I already have a big display tablet this is exclusively for travel or fucking around purposes.

It's at least more intuitive to draw on a screen tablet and since it takes so long to set it up or put it away, it's always set up and ready to be used in my case. It's expensive though

What's peoples thoughts on a Cintiq 24 (2025)?

I know it's only 60hz, but god i hate the 16" huion i bought 2 years ago. I'm thinking it might be time to upgrade soon, and i really want a larger display tablet. I can afford the £1.2k for it, but the 2k for a pro model is maybe too much for me.

Any reviews from actual users?
>>
>>7860635
What's wrong with the 16'' huion? I'm thinking of getting a small huion display tablet.
>>
>>7860671
I use the Huion Kamvas 16 Pro 2.5k. The pen that comes with it just doesnt feel consistent with its pressure registration.

I bought the Slim pen for £70 and it was so much better. But, i still just feel so cramped. I also hate the texture of the glass, i have put a matte screen protector on it which helps a bit, but god it dulls the colours a lot.

I just dont like it, but im a bit autistic about my drawing experience maybe. But god, buy the slim pen if you buy the 2.5k display.
>>
>>7860706
The pen is also just massive in size, very uncomfortable to hold. I compared it to my old Intuos and XP Pen styluses, and it's significantly thicker than both.
>>
>>7860635
>>7860706
I suggest you buy a pro on ebay or something, or a refurb or barely used return one (not restored basically a "like new"). I have a pro brought this way, saved about 600 and it's been working great for 2 years.
There is an advantage in that the non pro cintiq is fanless. If you prefer working in silence or hate hotspots it could be a boon. I work on the pro semi often and the fan drives me nuts sometimes and I tried to change the fans.

I'm just mad that Wacom can't put a 4k display on the cintiq in 2025/2026, 2k is emabrassing. The cintiq should be 2k and the pro should be 8k at this point (at least the larger models).
>>
>>7860774
Fan noise does drive me insane, and if im spending so much money on a Wacom i'd rather buy direct and get guaranteed warranty repairs etc.

My regular monitors are 27" 1440p oleds and don't bother me, so i assume it would feel sharp enough to draw on.

I'm mostly worried about the pen quality being lesser on a non-pro display even though it's using the Pro Pen 3? Also worried the colours might suck, but i can always check the colours on my phone or monitors i guess.
>>
>>7860787
>>7860787
I still get repairs and have all the registered goodies they pair with it because I brought it from a local tech shop not some bloke on FB marketplace. And it has free returns within 30 days. There's basically no real risk as long as if you keep the box. Idk if your local area has this but expensive gear is cool to try out this way, many people do end up returning perfectly good pieces of gear because they didn't like it or no longer has use for it.

Personally I think drawing on a screen and looking at it from a distance makes a big difference, especially when you zoom in to work on the lineart. Besides, the cintiq is just LCD not OLED, so it might look worse than your normal screen. I'm not saying it's subpar, but I think it is an annoyance you'd notice if you work closely with it. Details don't pop as much.

I'm not sure what you mean by pen quality being lesser, as in not as responsive? You could go try one out at a local store or just buy one and return it if you don't like the feeling. I still don't suggest you buy it at retail though because it is overpriced. Spending 1.5 grand on a 1440p 60hz display in 2026 is really not worth.

Final note on the color thing. Yes checking colors on other screens is good practice, but you'll probably get used to the on screen color too much for a secondary option to be reliable. Better having the display color be accurate. The 8 bit is disappointing. It's basically a 10+ year old display tech.
>>
>>7860844
I dont have local stores or anything with that type of stuff to try them out. It's more like i cant get the pressure curve tuned right, and it sometimes skips strokes all together.

I think from what you've written, maybe i do need to go for a used Cintiq 24 Pro though. I would basically be buying via eBay though and that scares me.
>>
>>7818253
My wife was showing her shopping cart for some board games she wanted and there was a Galaxy Tab S10 FE there, I know she only uses Apple, and knows I mostly use Samsung, so I connected the dots, she told me she was thinking of buying it for me when it was on sale, but decided I'd probably prefer it if we kept the money. I love her very much... might get the FE at some point when the money's not as tight though, or maybe I'll get the Tab S10 Lite, or a used flagship, I'm not sure really.
>>
>>7861070
eBay is decent overall, though some sellers don't accept returns. Also, apparently from what I heard the smaller models have more tolerable fan noise you can turn down with a setting that's missing on the largest model. (Though please do your own research on this to corroborate.) You should talk to the seller or find one that's basically a company of sorts with good reviews (like 99%.) Those usually have less issues and I got a lot of computing gear from them.
If you're buying from some rando you can ask him about warranty and such. I've actually gotten scammed more on amazon than on eBay though you have to be a bit eagle eyed on listings' pictures to see if there are any scuffs.
I took the liberty and checked on eBay and there doesn't seem to be any new gen pro 22'' though (the one with pro pen 3 and the thin bezels - the 24'' is the older model). If you're on the hunt for a that range then you might have to do a bit of digging. Most seem to just go for the 27'' since I suppose if you're already pro with a big budget you want as big a screen as possible.
That being said, wacom themselves have a refurbished page on their site that cut quite a bit off the MSRP. Says 1790GBP for the 22.
