Pesimo producto ¡NO LO COMPREN!
13 meses después de comprarlo el equipo dejó de funcionar, al hablar al soporte oficial en México ya no tenían piezas para reparar el equipo a pesar de que es una tableta lanzada apenas en el 2019, antes de esta tableta tuve que reemplazar dos del mismo modelo aquí en Amazon ya que vinieron con pixeles muertos al sacarlos de la caja y probarlos por primera vez.Me parece inaceptable que un equipo tan caro ya no reciba soporte ni refacciones a tan poco tiempo de su lanzamiento. El soporte de Wacom en México es sumamente deficiente.Mi recomendación es que compren de otra marca, ya que Wacom no está tomando como prioridad nuestro país.

Good product.
Pros: Size and brand. Reliability. I've been using Wacom products for over 15 years now. Including Cintiq 27 for the last 3 years at work. They are workhorses and super sturdy. ( Apart of the pens!). Size is good. Large but more comfortable than the 37inch ine. That one was a hog. Could nearly never find myself comfortable position with it and it took all the desk space. I work with keyboard so the 22hd fits me better. Especially when combined with silent and small wireless Arteck keyboard. Sensitivity is comparable with 37 inch one. Cons: Resolution and colour scale is unfortunately lower but nearly there and if considering the price difference between the two this one wins hands down. Also 22hd has a bit rougher screen texture and does not have a reflection issue which was a big con of the 27one. Honestly the glare on 27inch one was annoying. It reflected everything lamps, windows etc. All in all I reccomend this product even for professional use. It also comes with the basic adjustable stand which is very handy.

NO LA COMPREN!!! YA ES INSERVIBLE
Compré esta tablet en Noviembre del 2020, desde que la recibí noté un pequeño parpadeo pero no le dí importancia ya que no imposibilitaba el uso, pero justo una año después empezó a dar más problemas, empezó a parpadear la luz de la pantalla todo el tiempo, y ahora ya ni siquiera puedo prenderla, el año pasado llamé a servicio al cliente de wacom solo para decirme que su producto solo tiene un año de garantía y darme el contacto de reparaciones, contacto que a la fecha no responde, para un producto tan costoso y que presume de su alta calidad, no ofrece nada de garantía.Si piensas adquirir este producto por lo menos asegúrate de no pedirlo por aquí o de guardar bien tu garantía y reclamar al más mínimo fallo, recuerda que solo te garantizan que este espectacular producto dure por un año.Ahora mismo reconsideraría haber comprado otra de las marcas más económicas que ofrecen este tipo de tablets. Yo ya no puedo recuperar mi dinero pero ustedes si.Actualización 18/02/22: El servicio de reparaciones no me responde a pesar de haberlos contactado varias veces, el cable no está disponible en ningún lado, por lo que veo ahora tengo un trozo de chatarra de $15 000. No la compren.

Quality you can see and feel!
This is an amazing quality product.I have used a WACOM pen tablet for years for my photo art in Photoshop and Painter. This is my first display tablet.I had purchased a HUION Kamvas GT221 which was a much bigger screen, but could not get the screen colour balanced or even close to the appearance of my other main screen. I quickly returned it and bought this tablet.My Cintiq 16 displays colours,contrast and brightness the same as my IMac. The only set up issue was needing to reboot my computer to get the pen and tablet talking with the rest of the computer. Easy set up but worry if one of the wires get faulty the whole cable set up has to be replaced because all 3 cables are fused into a main connector that easily plugs into the tablet.However I have never had that issue with other Wacom pen tablets so this might be a needless worry.The pen feels like the other WACOM pens, there are no batteries to recharge or replace (unlike HUION ). The tenxure on the screen is natural feel. There is no lag between pen curser and my drawing action. I like that this is not a touch screen as I find even with a glove its easy to set off touch screens and buttons on the side of the screen - which was the problem with the HUION touch screen. I loved the HUION and is more affordable but the quality just wasn't what I could work with compared to WACOM. Cintiq 16.If space is an issue for you, then you might want the smaller WACOM but it is a touch screen. Download the driver from the Wacom website. Then plug in your tablet. It easily recognizes it....then reboot to get the pen working as well. I also had to buy and HDMI adapter to thunderbolt drive as IMAC doesn't have HDMI connections. AThe stand is extra....GRRR - however it is a quality product as well, but adds to the cost and certainly makes alternatives like HUION very very attractive...but it is what it is for now. WACOM costs...but you do get what you pay for.I like the amount of real estate for the actual image on the display. (A larger model - 22 inch - would be great...but it comes at a significant higher price....maybe next time!).Buy what you can afford. Amazon usually has an outstanding return policy that gives you time to see it it works for you.

A Decent mid-range tablet for serious hobbyists
UPDATE Summer of 2020:I’ve gotten myself a Wacom Cintiq Pro 24” with a Wacom Ergo Stand. The colors and resolution of the Pro 24” has pretty much filled in my negative comments on the Cintiq 16”, though this is user specific. If you don’t use software with bloated UI like Maya/ZBrush, the Cintiq 16” is perfectly adequate, especially if you do sketching or 2D illustrations/comics. If you are looking for more color accuracy, the Cintiq Pro 24”/32” or some of the higher-end XP-Pen screen tablets might be worthy to take a look.Now, I'm going to say something for most people might not like, but I prefer my Intuos 4 XL or Intuos Pro L over this new Cintiq 16.My MAIN issue is the fact that you DRAW on the screen, which means your hand will ALWASY be blocking parts of the UI elements in your graphics software. If you work with pro software, (especially ZBrush and Maya), where the UI buttons are already minuscule as it is a pain when your hand is blocking 25-30% of the right side of your screen. Not a fan.With regular Intuos 4/5/Pro tablets, no only can you can a large active area (with the L or XL size), you are also not blocking the screen with your hand, so you can see whole UI at a glance.HOWEVER, on Cintiqs and Cintiq Pros, there is an OPTION to pretty much turn your Cintiq into Intuos 4/5/Pro and use it like a normal tablet.You just have to duplicate your Cintiq screen with your external PC monitor, or disconnect the display from your PC settings, and the tablet will continue to work like an Intuos Pro.STILL, duplicating desktop pretty much solves the hand blocking UI issue, as well as the COLOR ACCURACY issue.YES, my number 2 issue with the Cintiq 16 is the COLOR ACCURACY. The colors on this Cintiq is just bad, on par with the old 2012 Cintiq 22HD and the 2015 Cintiq 13HD, or a late-2000s LCD monitor. The colors are washed out, and the white balance isn't really right, and the brightness is nothing to write home about neither.Comparing the colors, vibrancy, and brightness, the Cintiq 16 and my calibrated BenQ PD2700U, it is a Night and Day difference. That's why using this to sketch, or using it in duplicate monitor mode is better, because you just can't really trust the colors on the Cintiq. If you are a hobbyist, this shouldn't be too much of an issue. But if you are a budding professional, or pro, or student, then get yourself an color accurate monitor. Another reason for this color issue is because of the antiglare film, and same goes to the Cintiq Pro 16/24/32 tablets with antiglare etched glass. The MATTE surface has imperfection "pores" on the surface, to diffuse light/reflection to get the "matte" look and feel.Don't get me wrong, I do like the matte textured feel, much better than slick glass, but if the colors has to suffer on a already not so stellar color reproduction monitor, I'd rather have a less aggressive antiglare film. I'm SURE Wacom could do this, as the surface sheet on the old Intuos 3 was "matte" but the texture was no where near as "toothed" as the later Intuos 4/5/Pro.The other reason why the color reproduction is compromised is because of the rather large "air gap" as the glass and the LCD is not laminated, therefore, more light refraction can occur on both the glass and on the LCD panel itself.The upside to this is if your glass does crack (see Cintiq 27 issues), then the repair is fairly inexpensive if you can find the right sized glass. No optical adhesive means EASY replacement process.FINALLY, we move to the cables. This Cintiq 16 uses a Proprietary Wacom 3-in1 cable, with the tablet end similar to the old 30-pin iPod dock connector, and it splits into a DC jack, HDMI, and USB. This cable is suspiciously similar to the previous generation Cintiq 13HD, but the power input is different, Not sure if the old cable from the 13HD would work on this model, as I don't have one to test cross compatibility.Wacom does sell the old 13HD 3 -in-1 cable as a replacement part, however, no Cintiq 3-in-1 cable is sold as a spare part at the moment.I do have to give credit to Wacom where its due, and that is the build quality. Despite being a all plastic build, there are no creaks, no rattles etc.. Feels really solid for a plastic/polycarbonate chassis. The Glass feels thick and study too, no complains here, and unlikely to shatter (not like the fragile and brittle Cintiq 27).ALSO, having backwards compatibility with OLDER Wacom pens is a nice touch. Basically, the Cintiq 16 will work with all Wacom Gen 2 tip sensor pens with 2048 pressure levels (Intuos 4/5/Pro) such as the classic pen, art pen, etc etc.. in addition to the current Gen 3 tip sensor 8192 pressure levels (Intuos Pro 2017, Cintiq 16/22, Cintiq Pro 13/16/24/32).The Parallax is there but not that noticeable for most drawing and sculpting applications. The reason for the parallax is due to the glass, and how well shielded the internal electronics are in the tablet. Wacom tablets are pretty much big gigantic wireless charging electromagnetic induction antennas that are coupled tightly between the pen (receiver) and he tablet (transmitter). Some people actual "Parallax", and in reality, it isn't, but rather interference from LCD controller in close proximity to the tablet's digitizer... Remember all electronics emit Electromagnetic fields !!!So the pen tracking accuracy and parallax are GOOD ONLY WITH THE PRO PEN 2. With Legacy pens from Intuos 4/5 era, the tracking is only slightly off at the 4 corners close to the edge... Aside from that, I'm happy with the tracking accuracy, especially on such a cheaper hobbyist Cintiq model.I owned regular Wacom tablets since the Intuos 3 Medium, and to this very day, it has been rock solid, even though the tablet and pen has been dropped, coffee/water spilled etc.I then upgraded to an Intuos 4 XL size tablet, and the build wasn't as great as the Intuos 3, but was still good, and extremely usable as it was the XL size, with insane accuracy.Finally, my last Intuos product, the Intuo Pro 2017 L, really liked the new build quality, and the detachable cable design (especially after the nightmare of Intuos 4's shoddy solder job).
