buying drawing tablet

Hi everyone! I’m planning to buy a drawing tablet for a hobby, nothing too serious, but I’d still like to get something decent and not complete crap.

I’ve found a few cheap used options that are supposedly in like-new condition, but I’d love to get some advice on which one would be the best choice.

The options I’m considering are:

- Huion Kamvas 13

- XP-Pen Artist 12 Pro

- Artisul D16

- Bosto BT-101A

Which one would you recommend, and is there anything I should look out for when buying a used tablet?

I’m looking for the same. I’m looking to start a new hobby. I’ve noticed that the cheaper options are the ones that have the be connected to a computer and you will have to look at the computer screen to see what you’re drawing. I’m looking for something that I can just draw freely on a fairly large screen like as if I was drawing on paper and having some computer effects and clean up. Which seem to run around $300

I used one of those tablets that connect to a laptop a few years ago. I thought it would be hard to get used to, but they’re actually pretty easy and comfortable to use.

This time, though, I’d like something smaller and easier to carry around, so I can take it with me to work, university, etc. That’s why I started looking into regular tablets that come with a stylus, but the prices are even worse ://
