Wednesday, September 24th, 2025Posted by Jim ThackerWacom launches new $300 Wacom One 14 pen displayhtml PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"Wacom has updated its entry-level Wacom One product range, launching a new 14-inch display, the Wacom One 14.It has similar dimensions to the original Wacom One, but is thinner, lighter, has a larger usable drawing area, and at $299.95 has the joint-lowest launch price of any Wacom pen display.The Wacom One range: lower-cost pen displays for newer usersOn its release in 2020, the original 13.3-inch Wacom One was pitched as a pen display for creative beginners, social content creators and visual thinkers.It offered a lower-specced but lower-cost alternative to to Wacoms professional Cintiq range, with an HD-resolution screen and a pen that supported 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity.It was joined in 2023 by a newer, touch-enabled 13.3-inch model, the Wacom One 13 touch, and the 12-inch Wacom One 12.Wacom One pen displaysWacom One 14Wacom One (2020)Wacom One 13 touchWacom One 12Screen size14.0 in13.3 in13.3 in11.6 inDimensions13.2 x 8.9 x 0.4 in(336 x 201 x 10 mm)14.1 x 8.9 x 0.6 in (357 x 225 x 14.6 mm)13.2 x 8.7 x 0.5 in (336 x 222 x 12 mm)11.8 x 7.5 x 0.4 in (299 x 190 x 11 mm)Resolution1,920 x 1,080 px1,920 x 1,080 px1,920 x 1,080 px1,920 x 1,080 pxColour gamut98% sRGB72% NTSC(<99% sRGB)99% sRGB99% sRGBViewing angle (H)178170170170Brightness285 cd/m2200 cd/m2320 cd/m2275 cd/m2Contrast ratio1,000:11,000:12,000:11,400:1PenWacom One PenWacom One PenWacom One PenWacom One PenPressure sensitivity4,096 levels4,096 levels4,096 levels4,096 levelsMulti-touchNoNoYesNoWeight1.7 lbs (750 g)2.2 lbs (1.0 kg)2.0 lbs (900 g)1.5 lbs (700 g)Launch date2024202020232023Launch price(Wacom e-store)$299.95$399.95$499.95$299.95Wacom One 14: better key specs than its predecessor at a lower priceThe new Wacom One 14 is an improvement over its 2020 predecessor in pretty much every way.Although its marginally smaller and significantly lighter it has a larger usable drawing area, thanks to its slimmer bezel.The resolution, color gamut and contrast ratio are unchanged, but the screen direct-bonded, unlike its predecessor is brighter, and has a wider viewing angle.The bundled stylus remains the Wacom One Pen, which only supports 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity, although the response time has improved from 26ms to 16ms.As with the Wacom One 12 and 13 touch, it should connect to newer workstations which Wacom defines as anything less than five years old via a single USB-C cable.And at $299.95, it has the joint-lowest launch price of any Wacom pen display, equalling the smaller Wacom One 12, although the latter is now discounted in Wacoms online store.That brings it much closer to similarly sized displays from traditionally cheaper rival manufacturers like Huion and XP-Pen.Although its still marketed very much at students and hobbyists, Wacom is pitching it as a solution for anyone looking for an affordable pen display.Price and system requirementsThe Wacom One 14 is compatible with Windows 10+, macOS 13.0+, and ChromeOS. It costs $299.95, including the Wacom One Pen, a foldable stand and carry case.Read more about the new Wacom One 14 on Wacoms websiteHave your say on this story by following CG Channel on Facebook, Instagram and X (formerly Twitter).
