There are some very positive things about the Cintiq 16 and some I feel were overlooked (or intended due to the inexpensive nature of this tablet.) Pros: 1. I love the feel. The most important thing for me is that paper-like texture and drawing response time which this tablet has in spades. My work requires I spend many hours on a slick plastic surface, and this just wasn't that inspiring. The upgrade to the Cintiq 16 has reinvigorated my process. 2. The size is perfect. Not too small, and definitely large enough I can use more broad strokes to achieve a more energetic approach to drawing. 3. Response time is impressive. No noticeable latency from drawing to manifestation of the line. 4. Higher quality. The best tablet I've ever owned (and I've been a Wacom user since 2003). Very well made, the pro pen 2 feels even more solid (though still feels too light.) The cable finally feels like it's out of the way, and I'm not worried about it bending or breaking (as in the Wacom Cintiq 13HD.) Cons: 1. No hotkeys: This is a big deal, since I often use the side keys mapped to all kinds of functions in my favorite programs. Though it can be remedied with a keyboard, or the separate Wacom express key device. 2. The external stand is great, though expensive (running around $70-80 online). Other than that, I would easily recommend this tablet for anyone who is looking for a professional tablet that is a step up from an Intuos or even a smaller Cintiq.Read full review

Going from a DTZ-1200 (an older, smaller model) to this product was easy and flawless, and the simplicity of no-touch and a software-based action wheel accessed through the pen instead of ExpressKey buttons made my workflow smoother and quicker. Great brightness and color gamut without a high cost is terrific for low-to-mid-level artists and general graphic/computer art design.

This is a great intro-level cintiq with all the levels of pressure a pro needs but not the pro price. It saves you about 1000 dollars from the Pro but does not have touch features. I use it as a compliment to my existing Cintiq (32 pro) so I can get away from my desk. Lower resolution than Pro, but with the pixel density barely noticible. I will be enjoying this device for a while!

The pen sensitivity is incredible. I have an Xp Pen 16 Innovator and the pen levels still don't amount to the old Cintiq 16 (though it is getting closer compared to previous products). The screen colors are a little off but I have a separate monitor so its no problem.
