Hello! My tablet is dying... It is just over 5 years old, so it is about time i get a new one.

Are there any suggestions? The most I would be able to pay would be $150

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I really like Wacom. I've had my tablet a really long time now and still enjoy it :) Website here. I have a pen and touch which is about $100. The price really jumps up from that though, which kinda sucks. Next up is $200, boo.

Wacom is a nice brand, can be a little fiddly with some of the drivers and don't drop the pen the coil magnet won't approve, but they generally make solid products :)

I am just starting drawing on tablets and I am due to receive one any day now, I got the wacom bamboo splash tablet for 99 plus tax. I hope it works out because I am so stoked to start drawing CWs!

While a solid brand, wacom is also expensive and there are just as good but cheaper alternatives these days. You should give the Tursion Huion tablet a shot. It has the equivalent levels of pressure to a small wacom intuos 5 which is like 230 USD, but you can get a tursion huion one for 50 bucks on amazon. A friend of mine has a different model by the same brand and was telling me how it already has lived as long as her old intuos, but for a fraction of the cost as well as having no issues with the USB ports which wacom is well known for.

i'd suggest checking out reviews to see if there's anything that would be a deal breaker for you, but for the price it's probably the best option!
