Which is better for drawing?

[Cryso Agori]

I have a drawing tablet, but I just can't get used to it cause

1. It's small

2. there's no screen on it so its hard to figure out where points on the canvas are from eyeballing.

So I'm wondering, should I just money to buy a better one or should I just get a low cost ipad/tablet?

I have a Wacom One I use which is slightly pricey (but it was a gift so I don't have to worry about that). I like it a lot and don't think I'd be able to use a no-visual tablet, but it does require it to be hooked up to a computer at all times. Lot of people draw on ipads these days, that's probably the most accessible and low-cost option.

Yeah there are a lot of giveaways that give free iPads, usually Amazon fires. I'm thinking of getting one and just using a stylus and screen share app.

lot of people love Procreate which is only 10$. I opted for the cheaper method of just stealing photoshop

Decent iPad that supports Apple Pencil + Procreate is a good combo, just keep in mind that if you're into sketching, you'll want to get yourself a decent drawing glove too.

This one is by far the best one I've tried so far:

Articka Drawing Glove for Digital Drawing Tablet, iPad (Smudge Guard, Two-Finger, Reduces Friction, Elastic Lycra, Good for Right and Left Hand)
