I'm getting a graphics pad for Christmas and I was wondering if it is any good. It has a quite small drawing space but the specifications and price are very good.

It will be my first time buying one and I'm wondering if it's a good choice.

What's your budget?

Christmas present. So in Aldi it costs $39, so if I don't get it probably looking for something of similar or lower price.

Wacom makes hands down the best tablets.

You would be hard pressed to find even an entry level tablet for under $100.

That tablet may not be optimal but it will at least get you used to it.

Yea, this one is kinda small but it looks to have alright specs.
Also, does it's cheapness mean worse quality?

Nooot always, but I've never used a tablet.

Comparing to Wacom Bambo fun wich i have, the bambo has only 500 dpi more than that graphic pad and has the same levels of pressure, so i think the specs of that graphic pad is ok. But more important i advise you to check first if you like to write and draw on it and second if that pad has good compatibility with the programs you will use.

Ok, I am also a bit unsure about buying it because it only works with Windows (like 95% of the rest of the world) and I use Linux Ubuntu. Should work but I'm not sure.

google it and see.
