Fluid operation, Useful for many graphics and imaging tasks
Bulky breakout box, Hard to work near the edges of the screen, Relatively expensive
A great input device if you do a lot of brush-based graphics, the Cintiq 12WX nonetheless has some awkward design aspects and a bit of a high price. ...
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 Whybother software bundle includes outdated programs.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. ...

Design and build, ease of use, portability, indispensable portable tool for graphics professionals.
Price may be beyond the more “casual” user.

State-of-the-art drawing tools. Easy to use in your lap. More ExpressKeys than on other Wacom input devices.
Smallish display. Stand doesnt lock upright. Complicated setup. No cable management.
If you make your living creating graphics, you need a Cintiq drawing table. The question is: which one? The Cintiq 12WXs lower price, increased comfort factor, and added functionality may give the Editors Choice–winning Cintiq 21UX a run for its mon...
Abstract: 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...

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 Min specs: Requires Mac OS X 10.3.9 or...
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...
