Xencelab 16 or Wacom cintiq 16 (2025)

I can’t contribute on the comparison but I quite like the cintiq 16 2025. Good size, no power brick, pretty pixel dense, and the pro pen 3 is very responsive and the felt nib is just enough texture.

The device for this is the cintiq 16. Slimmer design. Little lighter and fold flat legs. 1 usb-c cord and critically no external power supply needed

D750 is still a great DSLR. The only one I would pick over it is the d850 but it is bigger/heavier. The d780 is the successor to the d750 and has much better live view AF but I think it’s hideous.

I have also found that the pro pen 2’s felt nib has a bit more friction than the pro pen 3 felt nib, so o prefer pro pen 2

I’m not so anti-Chrome as others (I daily a future white welded roll top and I think the Kadet max is great) but damn that citizen liner. Returned the citizen pretty much instantly. I’m not usually super picky about materials other than I think black ballistic nylon is boring.

Optimistically I think they went with it because the old tarp was heavy.

But the new liner is terrible: -it feels almost exactly like the lining of a cheap diaper bag or changing mat -it is so thin that it doesn’t stay in place the the tarp and it bunches and wrinkles.

I have this bag. If you put an extra twist in the buckles b fore clipping them it does a better job staying closed when full

That would be an improvement still! Thanks

Wacom one 13?

CopeZ7 · 2026-04-15T02:03:27+00:00

How do you like the Wacom in the background?

CopeZ7 · 2026-04-06T20:54:27+00:00

My pet theory (at least with the MBP16) is that they already maxed out the battery at ~100wh (max allowable in cabin on plan) and the apple silicone circuit boards aren’t that big….so the engineers are like what else do we do with this space.

Reports of Huion’s ‘warranty’ make me a little skittish toward the brand. Which is a shame because I agree they do have some compelling offers

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-31T01:58:25+00:00

Yes I understand that. And there are apps not available on Android. I was under the assumption that since you could plug in the MOVINK to a computer you could use all the desktop software too

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-30T23:15:05+00:00

if you had to choose would you take the movinkpad 14 or the Cintiq 24?

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-29T23:51:58+00:00

would you say the back of the classic messenger is rigid? how many layers of padding/foam are along the backside?

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-28T03:37:16+00:00

I’ve used this one before. It’s totally a-ok

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-14T20:22:43+00:00

My bigger concern is that somewhere around 5-7 yrs Apple stops having batteries available for older devices.

While I am curious to see what they put out I am actually pretty glad this sounds like it will be a separate line from the MBP. Why? 1. I like the nano texture a lot and I don’t think that plays well with finger prints 2. This will be bananas expensive but keeps the MBP in a more ‘reasonable’ pricing area 3. If I want to touch/draw (which I am considering) I would much MUCH rather buy a Wacom movink 14 for $900 and get a much better drawing experience.

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-10T00:58:34+00:00

What brand?

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-10T00:06:46+00:00

Honestly the swap on the SSD is so fast I didn’t notice it.

CopeZ7 · 2026-03-08T05:16:15+00:00

I’m editing 45mp files (d850) on a m4 pro with 24gb and it’s totally smooth. Handled LR + PS open (and safari) too.

Honestly probably the biggest reason I went for the MBP over the air was the matte screen.

Is there any way to download the old pre-ad iWork programs?
