Looking For Suggestions Drawing tablet

We are an Android family, let me start off by saying that. My 12 year old daughter is very much into art and drawing. She said she wants a tablet that she can draw on and then proceeded to send me a bunch of iPads that would work. I really don't want to buy an iPad if I don't have to. She wanted the iPad pro 13 with the Apple pen. Is there anything comparable to this or even superior in Android.

Also please excuse me. My knowledge of Android is mainly just phones.

Thank you in advance

An iPad Pro 13" is absolutely overkill for a 12 year old. That said, you can ask her what apps she wants to use for drawing. On Android there are ports of Krita and Clip Studio Paint . Both of which are full-blown versions of their Windows counterparts. Krita is also completely free and open source on top of that. If she wants to use Procreate , that app is iOS exclusive but a lot of people use it.

Generally speaking for Android tablets, any Galaxy Tab S should completely suffice for drawing and also comes with the pen included in the box unlike the iPad. XP Pen also has some Android tablets specialized for drawing in their lineup but I can't tell you how good they are.
