With the MovinkPad 11, Wacom targets illustrators who want to leave their laptop at home.
Wacom introduces the MovinkPad 11, a standalone drawing tablet running on Android 14. For 449 dollars, you get an 11.45-inch device with a touchscreen, anti-reflective glass, and a focus on drawing above all else. Unlike other Wacom tablets, this model no longer needs to be connected to a PC.
Drawing Experience Central
The IPS screen supports a resolution of 2200 x 1440 pixels and covers 99 percent of the sRGB color space. Wacom deliberately opts not to use an OLED panel like in last year’s Movink. The included Wacom Pro Pen 3 supports 8,192 pressure levels and 60-degree tilt, and is compatible with pens from Staedtler and Lamy, among others.
The tablet weighs 588 grams, slightly heavier than an iPad Air, and is slightly larger than Apple’s 11-inch model. Under the hood is a MediaTek Helio G99 chip, combined with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage.
Android Instead of iPadOS
Android 14 provides access to popular drawing apps, although the popular iOS app Procreate is missing. Wacom includes its own Canvas app by default. The tablet also features a 5 MP front camera, 4.7 MP rear camera, stereo speakers, Bluetooth 5.2, Wi-Fi, and a USB-C port. The 7,700 mAh battery is expected to last long, but Wacom does not specify exact figures.
With a price tag of 449 dollars, the MovinkPad positions itself as a cheaper alternative to the combination of an iPad and Apple Pencil. The real added value is said to be in the drawing experience, which is closer to professional display tablets. With this, Wacom hopes to attract hobbyists who are not keen on Apple’s ecosystem.
