Basics

  • Like a digital tablet, but no screen, only the pressure sensing, and often some buttons
  • More effective for drawing and draftting than a mouse, yet much cheaper than a touchscreen device
  • Often USB connected, although wireless models do exist

Reccomendations

Low Cost

  • Huion H640P
    • ~40 USD
  • Has all the artsy specs (pressure sensitivity, tilt sensing etc)

Mid Range

  • Huion Insproy Ink
    • ~80 USD
    • It has a battery free drawing screen on the back, that is somewhat dim (mainly useable in sunlight, or bright lighting), but can easily replace paper, and perhaps may be useable in a waterproof bag/case? It also doesn't reequire power/a seperate screen etc for that feature so this can be useful
    • It has usb-c as it's connector
    • It works with android as well as PC/Mac/Linux
    • Has all the fancy art specs (pressure sensitivity, tilt sensing etc)
    • User:Eric I got this a few months back, works well, great for sketching ideas out, doing pen-and paper math (without paper...), and art (The last of which i am...not the best at...so far) All in all would reccomend
