What you dont get with the ipad is 8K levels of pressure sensitivity which most people who used both say the Apple is probably between 2K-4K. You also dont get support for rotational strokes, but you do get tilt support. Another thing is the professional tablet or drawing tablets a lot of times accept different types of tips on their pens so people can get a feel they want between the pen and the screen to feel more natural. Finally almost forgot, there are programmable keys, for people that do things professionally and repetitively having programmable keys can cut down wasted time spent going into sub menus and doing repetitive tasks.
The iPad does have an advantage in that all models have touch controls, which are usually not present on more basic screen tablets such as my Huion. Considering its portability and versatility, the iPad is certainly nice to have, but is not crucial to my workflow.
One more consideration is that traditional tablets without a screen--as the OP posted--allow you to draw sitting up straight, with your eyes facing the monitor and your hand resting flat on the tablet, rather than bending down to look at your screen tablet. Whether that's important to you is a matter of personal preference and ergonomics.

While these are good prices, there are pretty much obsolete compared to newer better alternatives for a few bucks more. With the introduction of Chinese equivalents that let you draw directly on screen these types of tablets are becoming obsolete.
Can you provide a link to these? Thank you in advance.
There is a currently a smaller Huion 11.6 inch tablet for $170 after you clip the $30 off coupon.

There are also other brands like XP-PEN and DAOMON that tend to have big sales and clip able coupons which drop their products between $150-$200. Just need to pick a few you like and be vigilant and wait.
With iPads and other tablets being able to integrate with desktops, I could care less about Wacom now.

I can barely draw my own name, so I've no clue.
Thanks!!

In most cases see if you already have a table that can use a stylus and go from there, or as the person above posted an Ipad.
If you dont have any of the above, then I would spend the little extra and just wait for a draw on 11.6 or bigger drawing tablet like the one I linked above to go on sale and get one of those.

Another consideration is that if your budget only allows for a small tablet, your hand will block your view of a screen tablet. A non-screen tablet won't have this issue.
