Xencelabs is likely a name you don’t know, but they have been slowly making a name for themselves as an alternative in digital drawing tablets and they have now announced the Pen Display 24 and its coming here.

The Pen Display 24 offers a range of features and capabilities compared to competitive offerings, including enhanced glare reduction and fingerprint resistance, an edge-to-edge drawing surface, a natural drawing experience, Pantone Color and SkinTone validation, the included Tilt Stand, VESA mount flexibility, silent and fanless operation and a security slot for the Kensington MicroSaver 2.0 lock.

The Pen Display 24 comes with all key accessories, including a Tilt Stand, to let users start working immediately after downloading their preferred driver (Mac, PC or Linux) and plugging in the display. The Linux driver works similarly to the Windows and Mac drivers and has full functionality.

Perhaps the most interesting addition to the Display 24 is what they call the Quick Keys, which can be used on its own or snapped to the outside edge of the display. The integrated OLED display lets users see button assignments at a glance. There can be up to 40 shortcuts per application using the set button which allows users to group eight keys into five different sets.

As for when this can be obtained and at what price, well the when is sometime in April and it will be through MacGear, the price though is not yet known. In America the price is $1900 before tax, so a $3000 price point is likely here.
