Wacom has just announced the new
Cintiq 22HD touch. This device combines tablet and display into one, plus now features multi-touch. Here are the features I'm most excited about.

  • Multi-touch to directly interact with UI elements like color correction controls.
  • A 21.5" full HD display (with 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution)
  • 16 customizable, application-specific ExpressKeys located on the side of the display bezel.
  • User-defined Touch Strips, placed on the back of the display to adjust functions like zoom, scroll, brush size and canvas rotation
  • An adjustable stand allows for display rotation, offering both landscape and portrait viewing angles as well as the option to set an incline between 10° and 65°.


The Cintiq 22HD touch ($2,499 USD) will be available in May at select locations and Wacom’s eStore.
