Expanded XP-Pen Artist Ultra 16 Pen Display Key Features:
Vivid display with Ultra-series colour performance
The Artist Pro 14 (Gen 2) features display technologies developed for XP-Pen’s Ultra line, delivering rich contrast and precise colour reproduction in a compact form factor. Colours appear saturated without overshoot, blacks remain deep, and subtle tonal transitions stay smooth. This makes the display well-suited for illustration, concept art, photo work, and any workflow where colour judgement is critical.
Multi-touch control for natural navigation
Borrowing from the Artist Ultra approach, the Artist Pro 14 (Gen 2) supports touch input directly on the screen. Pinch-to-zoom, rotate, and pan gestures let you navigate the canvas intuitively, reducing reliance on keyboard shortcuts or external controllers. For artists who work quickly or move between sketching and refining, this keeps the process fluid and uninterrupted.
Fully laminated screen with etched glass surface
The laminated construction minimises parallax, keeping the cursor closely aligned with the pen tip. An AG etched glass surface reduces reflections and adds a subtle texture that improves stroke control, especially during slow line work or shading. The surface strikes a balance between clarity and resistance, helping the pen feel predictable rather than slippery.
X3 Pro Smart Chip Pen with 16K pressure levels
At the heart of the drawing experience is the X3 Pro Smart Chip Pen. With 16,384 levels of pressure sensitivity and a low initial activation force, it captures extremely light strokes while maintaining smooth transitions to heavier pressure. Tilt support allows natural shading and expressive line variation, and the smart chip ensures stable tracking even during fast, confident movements.
Compact format with professional flexibility
The 14-inch size makes the Artist Pro 14 (Gen 2) easy to integrate into smaller desks, shared studios, or mobile setups without sacrificing drawing space. USB-C connectivity simplifies cabling, while broad system support allows the display to work across Windows, macOS, Android, ChromeOS, and Linux. It pairs comfortably with popular creative software used for illustration, animation, 3D, and design.

FAQs:
How does this differ from larger Ultra-series displays?
The Artist Pro 14 (Gen 2) brings key Ultra-series technologies, such as advanced colour performance, multi-touch control, and the X3 Pro pen, into a more compact form. It’s designed for artists who want premium interaction and colour quality without moving to a large, desk-dominating display.
What advantage does multi-touch offer when drawing?
Multi-touch allows you to zoom, rotate, and pan the canvas directly with your fingers. This accelerates navigation and keeps your workflow focused on the screen, reducing interruptions when adjusting the view or composition.
Is the colour performance suitable for professional work?
Yes, absolutely. The display delivers wide-gamut colour and high accuracy, making it suitable for illustration, design, and content creation where consistent colour representation is essential.
How does the X3 Pro pen feel compared to older pens?
The X3 Pro pen offers finer pressure resolution, lower activation force, and more stable tracking. This results in smoother line tapering, better control during shading, and a more natural overall response.
Who is the Artist Pro 14 (Gen 2) best suited for?
It’s well-suited for illustrators, designers, students, and professionals seeking a high-quality, compact pen display. The balance of portability, touch control, and pen performance makes it practical for both studio and mobile creative work.

Buy now pay later
The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
