Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 Overview

Designed specifically for the needs and workflows of creative professionals, the Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 Creative Pen & Touch Display (2021) provides a natural, accurate pen experience along with high color accuracy and 4K resolution in a compact format. The 15.6" display features a 3840 x 2160 resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio, and a 98% Adobe RGB color gamut. The screen also supports multi-touch gestures and on-screen controls. It also provides 8192 levels of pressure sensitivity, thanks to the included Wacom Pen 2.

The combination of the Wacom Pro Pen 2 and the etched glass screen provides that distinct, pen-on-paper feel. The etched glass screen also serves another purpose, which is to reduce glare and reflections. Fold-out legs provide a 20° tilt angle so you can work in comfort. While there are multiple ways to navigate the Cintiq Pro 16, Wacom added eight ExpressKeys to the rear edge of the display, which allows for tactile one-touch shortcuts that streamline your workflow. The Cintiq Pro 16 connects to your Mac or Windows computer via a single USB Type-C port that supports DisplayPort in Alt. Mode or using an HDMI port alongside a USB Type-A connector. Cables are included.

I also have the larger display, but I needed a small one for my everyday workspace. In the beginning before receiving the product, I thought perhaps this might be too small to work with, but when I received it, I found that this is actually the perfect size for what I need. I love it and it works perfect.

Excellent

The tablet works great with my Mac Book Pro. My editing work is made easy by using the pen and tablet. It connects with the computer with no issues and the resolution and image is perfect.

Does the response time seem very slow with the pen compared to the Wacom Cintiq pro 24?
Asked by: Linda
The Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 Creative Pen & Touch Display (2021) has a 30 ms response time, which is around double the Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 Creative Pen Display's 14 ms repose time, however since we are speaking about a difference of 16 milliseconds, the difference is fairly minor. If you are the type of person who picks up on small millisecond differences in response time you should get the Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 Creative Pen Display instead.

If the laptop you're hooking it up to has a resolution of 1920 x 1080, can you still get the resolution 3840 x 2400 on the cintiq? What controls the resolution?
Asked by: Mary
The laptop's processor, or built in GPU if available, would drive the video signal to the Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 Creative Pen & Touch Display. Most modern processors and graphics processors are capable of this resolution.

Would you please tell me how loud is it?

Would you please tell me how loud is it?
Asked by: Freddy
There are no fans or moving parts to hum or buzz. I turned off my AC and fans to check this for you (it's in the 90's here in SoCal). Obviously there could be a really low grade electronic hum if you have your display sitting immediately next to a microphone as you try to record a "how to" procedure, but honestly, for all practical purposes it's silent.

Basic question. Most of my PS/LRC images are stored simultaneously on a local SSD drive and in the cloud. Are there any changes required from my current setup if I chose to edit using this pen display? Does it work like an ordinary external monitor? TIA
Asked by: Kevin
The Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 Creative Pen & Touch Display (2021) is an add-on to your existing computer and is considered a mouse replacement. You connect it to your computer and the signal will be sent to the unit.
