@@anzatzi True, there is the weight of the stand to take into account with the Cintiq Pro 24. More than 20 kilos. Not everyone has a desk which can support that weight.
That same 1080p resolution on a 22" screen doesn't sound like a good time to me. The screen quality on these tablets is already just ok and low ppi won't help.
@@Mysticsan It's normal based on what distance from the monitor? I personally draw a lot closer than I use the monitor generally. That's why you need more resolution.
@@aaronrutten I'm using a Cintiq 16 and I don't think I'd want a larger tablet display with the same resolution. It's hard for me not to compare this to more pixel dense laptop displays - especially at the big price premium over the Cintiq 16. Because I draw closer to the screen than I use a monitor generally, I think I'd want more resolution in a drawing tablet over a similarly sized monitor.
@@randommcranderson5155 (and others) In general, drawing too close to the screen is not healthy for several reasons, one of the main ones being your eyesight care (hear me well, I had eyesight as sharp as to pass the air militar academy exams (I didn't go there, is what my oculist compared it too as a teenager) and after tons of years working, first ones not being very careful, at 46 I can't read cr4p without glasses, my 75 year old mother has sharper eyesight now ! ). The distance being at least the length of your flexed (in a wide angle) arm, and the wacom cintiq - or whatever- at a 45º angle, or more vertical, to keep your back straight, neck straight and muscles of both fully relaxed, like resting back, instead of any of the two slightly inclined forward (as then all gets in tension). And super important, the muscles besides the neck, 100% relaxed. So you don't get that close to the screen. If need detailing, do digital zoom, but you need that way less with a 22 (and even less with a 27), and indeed, you will see yourself naturally drawing from farther than with the 16 that you might be using. 8 hours a day (or more) with anything between 12 - 16, has led to certain important problems to enough people I know as to warn it here. With the proper body position, not only your protect more your general health, including longer sessions without pain or tiring sensation (you should make frequent pauses and stretch legs and arms, tho, place the eyes in distance points, etc), and you allow better global view of the piece, essential for good composition of the art, AND allow drawing better from shoulder or elbow... you are at a larger distance from the screen, and then you don't really notice the pixel.
The cintiq 24 pro in my country still has unreasonable price, ± $3600 😢 I think I would consider buying the 22 version OR huion kamvas 22 pro which is a little bit cheaper (±$100 difference)
6:50 This is not completely true as the resolution determines active area on the screen. The UI elements are scaled at the same ratio as the drawing area if the resolution remains at 1080p. This can be offset by some screen scaling options, but that is not supported in all software. The 22" would still provide a larger drawing area as the pixels themselves are larger.
Been Using wacom tablets to teach figure and form drawing for 8 years in the education field I am on my 3rd Wacom tablet not because they go out but because I keep upgrading I currently have the Cintiq 21UX which I plan on passing down to my son and I am getting the latest one. I have some good advice if you are planning on getting a 1300+ model.....get some clear acetate plastic the kind that you use to laminate paper but don't put paper in between the acetate just melt it together with the machine like the kind they have at school and tape it to the screen. I once got a small scratch on my tablet and after that i said no more. It was worked great with no degradation in quality or sensitivity.
Wow really?! Wacom made a 22 inch entry version? I'm impressed . Very glad they went with separate cables. Also shocked they have a stand for it - disappointed there is no feet. I do like that angle to draw on. It makes me happy to see Wacom looking out for beginner artist and to compete for that market. For 1200$ I gotta say thats really good. My off brand (that we will not disclose lol) was around that size. Stupid huge and what did I get? A bad experience. Died in a month and so on. It was 900$ too. If I was making a choice on a tablet and I wanted a BIG one - god damn wacom really have stepped up. While this is exciting, I am let down with the 72 NTSC, but I get it - it's an entry level. I do own a Cintiq Pro, so nothing to complain about (lol fan noise). Rest In Peace. 22HD. It''s been a bash.
Cintiq 22 (21.5) arrived just the previous day, very excited, i am replacing the wacom 16, my first ever cintiq thought was a first generation cintiq 21UX and i never enjoyed the big brush strokes back then, the feeling of the pen wasnt that good, the pro pen 2 makes all the difference in the newer models, it is enjoyable to draw in this size, the weight is indeed an issue, since i have to store it vertically in the end of my drawing desk and deploy it in front of me when working on it, and it is, yes, a bit heavy. Overall, very happy with my decision to move to the new 22 model.
I hope to buy a Wacom cintiq one day. I draw on a Samsung Note Pro tablet, and it's good...but man, I'd like to even touch one of the cintiqs, let alone own one. Good review btw, I like seeing the features.
i bought a cintiq pro 24 with ergo stand a month ago. I had 2 defective cintiqs from bh photovideo, i had to send them back. its a nice feeling at first to play and own a cintiq. however i would be careful where you buy it from.
Aaron, do you think it is likely they will release a QHD model in this size or for the 24 you mentioned in the vid? I feel like it would almost make more sense for them to drop the cintiq pro 16 from their line and just do a 20-22 QHD to take it’s place.
Lol. Just a few months after I bought a cintiq pro 24 wacom releases a model that could have fit my needs and not leave me broke for a month. That's a legit criticism I have for wacom. If they have at least announced that they were planning to make a 22 model for the regular lineup I would have waited... Oh well. I'm still having a blast with my 24 and even thought it was quite expensive, I'm enjoying every bit of it.
Aaron, I’ve just purchased a cintiq pro 24”........and I adore it. Can you give me some advice please. Is it necessary to use a ant-scratch cover, similar to the one I use on my iPad? Or does it effect the distance of the pen nib etc. Thank you. Martin.
I found the Cintiq 16 and the iPad to be too small. Great for when I'm on the go, but when I'm at home and of a mindset to enjoy creature comforts of a full desk, the larger screen is perfect. In fact, I'm giving serious thought to upgrading to the 24 Pro.
The Cintiq 16/22 have a paper-like feel, but that grainy texture is more pronounced on the Pro models. In my experience, the 32 felt the more grainy. Check out this review for a more detailed explanation: ua-cam.com/video/lvSeRhrUcCY/v-deo.html
It just launched, so I think maybe they haven't made the listing live yet. It should be available soon, probably here: www.wacom.com/en-us/products/pen-displays/wacom-cintiq and possibly on Amazon too: amzn.to/2YhvAzG
I would have wished that they choose to use USB type C if applicable I think its capable of data, power, and video in one and is not proprietary. Though all in all this works fine
Hi Aaron. I just discoered your channel and I found your videos amazing. I have an honorable 5+ years Wacom Intuos Pro Medium, and I was thinking to upgrade it to a display tablet... ... but I'm really torn apart between the Cintiq Pro 16' (... the most I could pay for a pro version... the 24' is FAR OUT my budget), to have, even in the smaller one, the best possible color performance/actual 4k resolution, but the same problem to be relegated to a small screen (... with the risk of cluttering the display in some drawing software) or this Cintiq 22', just for enjoy more display space/save some bucks (with the bonus of the built in stand), at the cost of color performance/resolution.
FYI - If you are a FELT nib fan, the regular CINTIQ screen surface might get scratched! I have found this technical info in a product comparison chart. I have also asked the wacom support two times to confirm this little detail. ONLY the PRO models should be used with felt nibs.
Excellent review, and thanks for the heads-up (I was unaware! :O ). I guess then the color calibration situation is similar to the 16 model : Fairly accurate by default, getting very good once calibrated. Is it ? Now, I have to give it to Wacom. We (me, personally, in their official channel, did so) had prayed for a 22 model in the affordable line. And they have pretty promptly delivered it. Surely they have seen the obvious market and competing advantages of it to take the decision, but nonetheless, is an extremely positive move for us. 1200$ (1067 euros, at this very instant) is within the reach of most freelancers. :) PD: I for one prefer this cabling, seems in very long years it'd be easier to find a not too expensive replacement if some cable gets wrecked.
In my tests, the Cintiq 16 was already well calibrated out of the box and didn't need it. As far as I can tell, the 22 is the same, but I will run a calibration test and report if anything is worth mentioning.
@@aaronrutten In case you find it worth of a video or part of one, that would be amazing and useful, thank you (when and if it goes well with your schedules). :)
I also would be happy if they had a version of this that had a 4k screen. for maybe 1600 usd. Since i use a 4k imac 21.5 as a monitor i liked the added resolution is just so pleasant to the eyes.
They could've threw in a few velcro straps... my Cintiq 20wsx came with one... Here I am trying to get a defect free 16" in the past 3 months and 6 units. And new larger cintiq comes out... I fully expect this model to have the same Dust and Dead Pixel issues as with the Cintiq Pro 24", Cintiq Pro 16", and Cintiq 16" I've dealt with the past 11 months :(
What's odd is that I only hear about people who receive multiple faulty units in a row, as if they are somehow cursed. I don't hear about one tablet having a dead pixel and the next being OK. Maybe that's because the issue was resolved. I've never had dust or dead pixels and I've used almost a dozen different Cintiqs. Must just be bad luck.
@@aaronrutten Yeah two 16's came in yesterday, both with dust issues. Sucks as I've been without a Cintiq since March. That makes about 16 I've gone through. Almost willing to compromise at this point.
I bought a XP-PEN 22, can´t get it to connect to save my life, there´s no one to speak to or reach out to...after a whole week of installing and uninstalling and trying just about everything, I´ve given up. Returning it to Amazon to give this one a try, just checked Wacoms website and they have numbers for a helpline to speak to someone in just about every language. Will see how it goes,
Man, I was kind of excited for this release because I'd been hoping to upgrade from my old 22HD but the bigger pro models won't fit in my workspace. But I can't upgrade to this because it has no utility buttons :\. What a pain! Guess I'm keeping my 22HD until it dies...
There is no reason for 3 cables. USB-C can handle power, data i/o transfer, and HD video. Should've just used USB-C with an optional adapter box for connection to machines that don't have USB-C.
Ok tested it next to all of Wacom Cintiq offerings. I actually liked this 22" form factor best, unfortunately the resolution is too low! 2560 x 1600 would have been ideal for this size. Saw 32" 4k too! wow! It is too big, I could never use it lol It was like watchign TV next to your face.
Thanks! I just need to figure out the best way to stream the SNES output and I will make a painting video with Mario Paint. Framemeister seems like a good option, but it's quite an investment. I wonder if you have any recommendations for how to convert SNES video output to HDMI so it can be captured. From what I understand, an upscaler would add the benefit of less latency, but I'm not sure if that really matters for a drawing game.
@@aaronrutten I have an extra rca input capture card but its PCI which is legacy now days I should have sent that too, but your motherboard may not have a pci slot, I found an rca to hdmi adapter, that might work if your using a capture card to stream
meh, I seen pricier things to me it sounds like a fair price tho I would much rather have a smaller portable tablet I can draw on instead of a huge monitor with touch functionalities but what can ya do? still gonna buy it tho since we dont have other good models here at reasonable prices
I'm in the market for a drawing display tablet and I lot of things about the cintiq 22 excite me.... Then you revealed the price 😐 I know wacom is the gold standard for drawing tablets but 1200$ USD for an entry level product with only 1080p resolution is pretty steep. I feel like the beginner artists who can afford that will just pay the extra 300 for the cintiq 16 pro. I guess I'll have to decide if the extra room is worth an additional 400$ (comparing the 16 + the price of the stand separately against the 22)
You just have to decide how you work, and with what programs. If not using, or having them at screan allth time anyway, much menues and drawing in big sweaping motions preferably at 1:1 scale, then this model is best. If wanting a great array of interfaces available and being more about drawing in precise smaller motions, the 16 pro is better.
The cable design is better on the 22. Having proprietary cables is the most Ahole thing a company can do to you. I want optical hdmi cabling, no problem. The 3-in-1 is a PoS.

If you're going to spend $1200 on entry level Cintiq, then you might aswell pay a bit extra for a Cintiq pro.
1500 for a cintiq pro 16 if I’m not mistaken, unless you buy refurbished. The size might be a factor for some people tho!
Its 50 lbs heavier with stand
@@anzatzi True, there is the weight of the stand to take into account with the Cintiq Pro 24. More than 20 kilos. Not everyone has a desk which can support that weight.
So what’s better this or the cintiq 16 pro? Mainly to do digital art.
Exactly. Anyone who can afford $1200 wouldn't even buy this. This isn't a good middle ground. I don't know who this product is for.
That same 1080p resolution on a 22" screen doesn't sound like a good time to me. The screen quality on these tablets is already just ok and low ppi won't help.

Why can't we have a 2k resolution?!! In between and it's enough for a good resolution
"Entry level" well the price is anything but entry level. I know wacom is expensive, but my hearth stopped when I saw what this thing costs
If only they made this with a 2K resolution like the 27QHD and an ergo stand it would've been perfect
I agree.
YES
Aaron, very good review. Love the info! I love my Cintiq 16; portability is important to me. But that Cintiq 22 looks great!
I'm very tempted. Using a medium Intuos Pro (2013 model with only 2,048 pressure levels). Will need to save up first.
Another point, the 22" Cintiq doesn't come with the express remote. Not everyone uses the shortcut buttons, but some of us do.
For $1200 they could've at least added the remote too. That would have MAYBE justified that price.
Do these tablets have their own OS, to use on the go, or does it need to be connected to a computer to use?
I believe saving more for the 24 pro is much better deal
The cintiq 24 pro in my country still has unreasonable price, ± $3600 😢
I think I would consider buying the 22 version OR huion kamvas 22 pro which is a little bit cheaper (±$100 difference)

I hope this doesnt sound dumb but I am not sure what NTSC means. (i know nothing about computers) what does it mean when i compare 72% NTSC to 72%RGB?
Its ok, though I already got a 24 pro cintiq.
There is no reason for 3 cables. USB-C can handle power, data i/o transfer, and HD video. Should've just used USB-C with an optional adapter box for connection to machines that don't have USB-C.
Ok tested it next to all of Wacom Cintiq offerings. I actually liked this 22" form factor best, unfortunately the resolution is too low! 2560 x 1600 would have been ideal for this size. Saw 32" 4k too! wow! It is too big, I could never use it lol It was like watchign TV next to your face.
good review, nice to see mario paint make a cameo! :)
Thanks! I just need to figure out the best way to stream the SNES output and I will make a painting video with Mario Paint. Framemeister seems like a good option, but it's quite an investment. I wonder if you have any recommendations for how to convert SNES video output to HDMI so it can be captured. From what I understand, an upscaler would add the benefit of less latency, but I'm not sure if that really matters for a drawing game.
@@aaronrutten I have an extra rca input capture card but its PCI which is legacy now days I should have sent that too, but your motherboard may not have a pci slot, I found an rca to hdmi adapter, that might work if your using a capture card to stream
meh, I seen pricier things to me it sounds like a fair price tho I would much rather have a smaller portable tablet I can draw on instead of a huge monitor with touch functionalities but what can ya do?
still gonna buy it tho since we dont have other good models here at reasonable prices
I'm in the market for a drawing display tablet and I lot of things about the cintiq 22 excite me.... Then you revealed the price 😐 I know wacom is the gold standard for drawing tablets but 1200$ USD for an entry level product with only 1080p resolution is pretty steep.
I feel like the beginner artists who can afford that will just pay the extra 300 for the cintiq 16 pro. I guess I'll have to decide if the extra room is worth an additional 400$ (comparing the 16 + the price of the stand separately against the 22)
You just have to decide how you work, and with what programs. If not using, or having them at screan allth time anyway, much menues and drawing in big sweaping motions preferably at 1:1 scale, then this model is best. If wanting a great array of interfaces available and being more about drawing in precise smaller motions, the 16 pro is better.
The cable design is better on the 22. Having proprietary cables is the most Ahole thing a company can do to you. I want optical hdmi cabling, no problem. The 3-in-1 is a PoS.
That price gap is very scary
Oh unexpected release
How many out of 10 would you like to give this product?
That would require a point of reference.
You could review my Wacom Bamboo pen and touch from the mesozoic era, it makes art and dreams come true
Have one of those. 🤣

This is a pissy review that diminishes a great new product while obsessively comparing
comparing it to it's 16" sibling. .
Isn't that what a review is?
... The official wacom ads even compared the 22 version with the 16, bruh..... 🙄
