People who bought it, are you happy with it?

I drew on my Microsoft Surface for a long time and always wondered whether this product was really worth the price. In retrospect, however, I have to say that I am very happy with the decision. The large work surface and the very good recognition of pen inputs, together with the Ergo Stand, make it really very pleasant to work with.

Unfortunately, the touch version was not available when I ordered it, but if you work with Photoshop, for example, and use keyboard combinations all the time anyway, this doesn't really matter in my eyes. You just have to press "r" (for rotation) or "z" (for zoom) from time to time, but this works very "smoothly" and is not as jerky as with the touch function (see YouTube videos).

Can I draw better because of this? No, I wouldn't say that you need a tablet like this to make beautiful pictures, but it's just a lot of fun to work this way (no constant zooming in and out thanks to the large working surface/ I need far fewer attempts until "the lines fit", thanks to the good pen recognition/ with the Ergo-Stand I can either convert the monitor into a "standing desk", tilt it in the normal position to any desired angle or lean it out over the desk (see Youtube videos)).

Would I buy it again? Immediately! (But since I added the 5-year warranty, I won't have to ask myself this question for a long time).

PS: One point of criticism that keeps coming up in the YouTube videos is the fans built into the device. I have to say that I currently often work with approx. 10-30% of the screen brightness, which is bright enough for me. So far, the fans have only come on 1-2 times, otherwise the device has always been quiet. Of course, the fans would come on more often if you set the screen brightness to 50-100%, but in my opinion you don't need such a high brightness if you don't have direct sunlight or it can even be counterproductive (you get tired eyes much faster).

Yes I am, I also have a Surface Pro 7 for on the go, but you can really feel the difference of pressure sensitivity and accuracy on the Cintiq 24. I would definitely recommend to get a stand for the Cintiq since it is not too comfortable laying on the table. Otherwise one of the best digital drawing experiences.
