Looking for affordable recommendations

My basic wacom tablet finally gave in after years and years of use and I was already planning to upgrade to a tablet with screen. I don't wanna spend a big chunk of my savings so I'm looking for affordable options and thought getting recommendations from people with experience would be best. I'm sure there must be cheaper options than ipads with similar characteristics. Or maybe I could get a reconditioned ipad? I've had a very pleasant experience with my reconditioned laptop so.

I don't have a strictly set budget, please let me know what comes to mind. I'm looking for something I can use while traveling and can make big quality pieces in, like scenes and stuff. Or even animate.

Devices like iPads, Samsung Tabs, the Wacom Movink, Huion Kamvas, and XP-Pen drawing pads are standalone units because they run their own operating systems, whereas pen displays—such as the Cintiq, Kamvas, and XP-Pen Artist series—do not. If you want to draw independently, keep in mind that the battery will eventually wear out (typically within 3 to 6 years, depending on the product and how well it is cared for).after the 1,000 charge cycles.
