Very Nice!
This is definitely a Pro piece of gear! It's solidly built, and comes with everything needed to get it running. The vesa mount points on the back give you many options aside from the stout folding legs on the back of the unit. I actually mounted mine on a heavy duty music stand in my studio! I opted for this model with the touch feature even though I had read some negative reports on the touch response, and in my opinion it works nicely. The only problem I encountered was if I swiped my canvas too far off the screen it was tricky swiping it back on, but most graphics software has a widget you can tap to re-center your work. I've also experimented with using the touch screen on my audio mixing system for console control of faders buttons and knobs (With good results). The Cintiq Pro is very smooth in operation, the pen is sleek and feels very natural. The touch sensitivity is wonderful. Using a scratch pencil tool really gives you a feel when going from fading to darker an darker strokes. The glare free screen will save your eyes, magnetic attachment for the control pad on either side of the work surface, and a large border around the screen to rest your paw while working the edges. Granted, The Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 is not inexpensive, but good tools will make your craft work much more enjoyable for you. I'm enjoying mine!

This thing is MASSIVE but is excellent
I'm a graphic designer and I've never had a drawing tablet before so I went all in and got this one. I like the option to turn touch display on or off but I find myself with it off more than on. I was worried the screen would get hot while drawing on it but I can draw on it for hours and it just gets warm to the touch but never hot. The fans are extremely quiet and you would really have to listen for it to even hear them. Do your self and get a stand for this thing because it is brutal on your neck staring down at it. The Express Key remote is hands down one of the best features Wacom has come out with. I use it so much and is completely customizable. The screen quality is excellent but the matte finish does mess with the color in your design program a little bit unless you have a screen calibrator. I'm super happy with this display so far though.

Wacom vs the competition. You get what you pay for
Amazing tablet, you get what you pay for! I’ve been using an iPad Pro 12.9 but have gotten to the point where the screen size is just too small for bigger projects so I constantly have to be zooming in and out so I figured upgrade to a Wacom for the studio and keep the iPad Pro for on the go. 1st impressions it’s bigger than you’d think, for size reference I’d say it about the size of an IMac 27” definitely get an arm or the ergo stand the little legs behind it won’t do it your neck will thank you later on. 2. The touch functionality is really really hit or miss especially compared to the iPad Pro, touch is just not there yet. I found myself turning it off as other reviewers mentioned. Save $500 and do the non touch version. 3. Pressure sensitivity is on par with the Apple Pencil 2nd gen. 4. Setup was really easy and straight forward 5. Overall it’s a really great tablet I would recommend for any serious or professional artist definitely worth the money. Compared to huion, xp pen and gamón this is definitely better quality think of it as apple vs Android they all do the same thing at the end of the day but in my opinion after trying all 3 I’d say the Wacom beats out the others in build quality and pencil response/pressure sensitivity. The others tend to skip at times or just issues with the drivers. Only thing bad if at all is the price but again after experiencing the competition it’s well worth it in my mind. Side note if you can’t justify the price of the Wacom I would go with the huion personally if you need some sort of specific pc or Mac application they even have a 4K 16” will have to try that out soon as well. If you just want something to draw On and don’t care about specific applications I would definitely say an iPad Pro that way you have a drawing tablet and also have other iPad functionalities. I ended up returning it but only because I would like a 32” instead just for more space for references and windows within the monitor.

I feel like a BETA Tester
This is a good tablet but because Wacom is not putting their best foot forward with their own software and their software partners it is not great. I am having issues within Wacom Tablet properties with random duplicates of applications populating the programs list, usually having a MS store logo; sometimes becoming more then a nuisance they can ruin user hotkey input, or confuse it; they are deletable but can return. Also user defined hotkey labels can randomly revert to default though they will still be as assigned and if you reprogram then they will repopulate the labels properly for a spell. It is disappointing that the Express Key remote only sticks magnetically to the sides in landscape orientation and if you physically rotate the screen into portrait mode then it will just slide off; there is plenty of room on the bottom bezel of the monitor for this to be implemented. I prefer to just work with a company directly rather then complain in a review but I do not get very good responses from them and have little hope for a timely fix. Their best suggestion was a complete reload of windows with my fingers crossed I suppose; This is just busy work for users instead of actual support, though I admit sometimes it may solve one problem it can cause 10 more. There is marketing hype regarding the use of this tablet and the optional 3D Pen within Fusion 360, It is just that HYPE! Fusion 360 will darn near deny support and the user base hardly recognizes the viability within the forums where Fusion sent me; a blank forum with no other users to even feel your pain. The touch screen in Fusion worked and then quickly stopped working. The 3D Pens tumble button did not work but I was able to assign it to zoom as expected and then found that it was an unreliable sub par experience altogether within Fusion 360 though I partially suspect my computer and I am actually awaiting an upgrade with high hopes that it will afford the extra strain a second large monitor with touch, pen and express key begging attention within Fusion 360 can obviously put on my old computer that has a newer N-vidia 1080 FI as it's saving grace. I would recommend this with caveats. My HP Spectre was not able to support this monitor and it was a little finicky getting it to work with my desktop requiring a couple system restores and a specific placement of the monitor cables to the video card along with not "rocking the boat" once things worked.

Really Vague Directions for setup.
This is my first High End Wacom Tablet. I used the Bamboo Wacom just for an occasional illustration. I wanted to finally take the plunge and get this to help my Photography post production and I wanted to really start taking my personal Illustrations more serious. I use the Adobe cloud at work and HR wouldn't ok the Wacom purchase. Once opened, It was difficult getting this set up. I wanted to use it with my Imac. Installing the correct driver off the Wacom site before plugging it in was a hassle, and for the price, It really should of been plug/play. I even had a hard time just finding the miniature power button. The little fold out set up card is so basic, it was like they were trying to save ink/paper. It took 5 restarts before the Wacom would show it was connected. Support is a total joke. It's total click on a topic and if its not a preloaded fix to your issue, good luck. I know it's going to take time to get the hang of it but the setup process is really poor. I took a chance on this instead of just getting an Ipad Pro. I hope I don't regret it.
