I could do a very quick and simple review and just say WOW!!! and leave it at that but it would be such an injustice to this amazing piece of kit that will enhance, improve and make creating artwork much more intuitive and fun.

The Cintiq is a wonderful piece of technology for professionals and artists but it's very expensive and shouldn't be bought on impulse.

All over the world, creative professionals use sketchbooks to express their first ideas. This is why the Cintiq 12WX was developed as if it was a sketchbook: With a smooth, flat surface. And with a light weight that enables you to use it on your knees and to show it around to others. As you would do with paper

Any graphics professional or computer artist will know a graphics tablet is as indispensable as the hand they use to draw with. Wacom's introduction of the Cintiq range and now, specifically, the introduction of the Cintiq 12WX and reviewed here, is...

At this screen size, unless you really value the built-in LCD, you might be better off with a cheaper drawing tablet.
Is the Wacom Cintiq 12WX worth twice the price of a comparable-size Intuos tablet? Only if you value the built-in LCD.

Every now and then, a product comes into the MacFormat offices that is so all-round wonderful that we will try anything to avoid handing it back, and Wacom's latest graphics-tablet-with-built-in-screen affair certainly falls into this category.

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 wasn't visually expecting the pen and the display to be...
So personally, I think I'd get an Intuos 3 - but I can certainly understand the appeal of the Cintiq 12WX, and if you are getting a tablet then I would certainly recommend trying the Cintiq 12WX to see what you think

Award: Recommended!
We were impressed when we saw the forerunner to the Cintiq 12WX - the Cintiq 21UX (web ID: 72901). A responsive, easy-to-use tablet with an integrated 21.3in TFT, it was ideal for professional artists and designers. It wasn't so good for those on a...
A splendid bit of design that will please the most commited enthusiast, and a godsend for artists on a budget.
However, Wacom has heard the cries of consumers, and while the 12WX still doesn't qualify as an impulse purchase, at -700 it's just within the grasp of most committed enthusiasts.

Award: Editor's Choice!
With a built-in TFT display, the Wacom Cintiq 12WX has much to offer artists looking to treat Photoshop like a canvas. It's also much more reasonably priced than other tablet displays. We discover why the Wacom Cintiq 12WX could change the way you work.
Stylish, quality build, excellent subtle response, good screen definition with wide viewing angle, 16:10 format display, ergonomic weighted grip pen, relatively compact size, customisable controls, spare pen nibs
Reduced price still too high for some, relatively small screen size, no Bluetooth option for fuller portability, no dedicated carry case, some calibration issues, bundled software doesn't reflect premium price
If you already own the mighty Cintiq 21 UX you're unlikely to want to replace it with the smaller version despite its obvious charms. That said, this is a wonderful alternative for anyone restricted by budget and space. Likely to outlive the average...
