This is the best summary I could come up with:


Sharing the same (albeit smaller) grip-handle design as the Wacom Cintiq Pro 27 that was released last year, the new 17.3-inch and 21.5-inch models both feature a 3840 x 2160 (4K) 120Hz touchscreen capable of displaying up to 1.07 billion colors.

Like the larger Cintiq Pro 27, these new additions to the lineup don’t include any kind of mount or stand to angle the display tablets while in use.

Wacom’s display drawing tablets are widely considered to be the best in the industry, which almost justifies the eye-wateringly expensive $3,499.95 price of the larger Cintiq Pro 27.

Most creative professionals working in industries like animation and video editing tend to prefer a larger display tablet because it’s easier to achieve finer details, so the market for these smaller offerings feels especially niche.

Rival offerings from companies like Xencelabs and Huion are improving in quality every year and are always much cheaper than equivalent Wacom products.

Considering you don’t even get a stand with these new Cintiq Pro tablets, even loyal Wacom fans may be tempted to try out other more affordable alternatives.
