Wacom just announced a new standalone tablet for artists and creators: the Wacom MovinkPad 11, with an 11.45-inch multitouch display and anti-glare opaque finish for a natural drawing feel.
Wacom says one of its main goals is for users to reach for the MovinkPad 11 as easily as they would a sketchbook when inspiration strikes. To this end, it offers Wacom-exclusive features to allow to jump right into drawing. Beyond drawing, you could use it for graphic design, note-taking, entertainment, or potentially 3D modeling.

The tablet runs on Android 14 and includes a Wacom Pro Pen 3, but it is also compatible with other stylus brands, such as Lamy, Staedler, and Dr Grip. The Wacom Pro Pen 3 is battery-free, so you never have to recharge it or worry about running out of battery life, and it comes with extra nibs stored within the pen’s body.
The MovinkPad 11 also features the Wacom Canvas, a straightforward sketching app easily accessible by long-tapping your pen on the screen while the tablet is locked, similar to a camera shortcut on a phone. Each Wacom MovinkPad 11 includes a two-year license to Celsys Clip Studio Paint Debut, a digital painting and creation software.
The display has a 2200 x 1440 resolution and an 11.43-inch drawing area. The tablet weighs 1.3lbs and has 128GB of internal storage and 8GB of RAM. Its front-facing camera is 5MP, while the rear camera is 4.7MP.

“The Wacom MovinkPad 11 is for people who just can’t stop drawing,” said Koji Yano, senior vice president at Wacom Branded Business. “Whether you love to doodle between classes or are moving up from drawing on a smartphone screen, this portable creative pad makes it easier and more fun to just draw.”
The Wacom MovinkPad 11 is now available for $450, which is, admittedly, not cheap. The $450 price point makes the MovinkPad 11 almost twice as expensive as other competitors, like the Huion Kamvas 12 or the PicassoTab X, though the MovinkPad’s specifications are also far superior.
