I've been looking into tablets because I decided I wanted to get myself one for Christmas :D I'm not sure exactly what tablet to get though. I like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-CTL490DB-Digital-Drawing-Graphics/dp/B010LHRFWW/ref=sr_1_12?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1513088570&sr=1-12&keywords=wacom+tablet
Thoughts?

I have exactly the same thing except mine has touch, which isn't a big deal. I LOVE it! I would go for it. It has made such I big difference for me. If you are using a mouse it will take a little bit to get used to, and then you won't ever want to go back.

I found one that has touch: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010LHRFYU/ref=psdc_16034531_t2_B006MRAVFE
This one also comes with Corel Painter Essentials. Edited at December 12, 2017 09:06 AM by Oceane Elites

The Slate is also a great option. you attach a little sensor to your pencil or whatever you are drawing with and it draws exactly what you draw on the pad with the pencil. The Slate is 170$ though.

I have a Wacom Bamboo Capture Pen and Touch Tablet. I wish you could buy one for a reasonable price still because I would thoroughly recommend it. But it is from 2013 and they are now selling on amazon for $250 :/ With that being said, IÂ’ve loved my Wacom tablet so IÂ’m sure the one you are looking at would be just as great. I say go for it!

Im not sure the difference, but you might want to look in to this one as well: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010LHRFYU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_jv.lAb71CQSCS
Edit: it looks like the difference is the software it comes with. So unless you already have software you like for Manips, you might want the one I posted instead. :) Edited at December 12, 2017 09:31 AM by Hemlock Farms

A friend of mine is using Wacom Intruos art, it came with a drawing program too. She is really happy with her tablet :)
If you cant afford Wacom thats fine! Huion-tablets are a great brand too, and slightly cheaper than Wacoms. Have a lot of friends that own a Huion tablet and none of them had anything bad to say about them.
Remember tablets come in different sizes too! I recommend grabbing a medium tablet. I started with small tablet myself, and realized pretty fast it could get slightly annoying to work on that small area especially when you draw a lot. But that is up to you :)

I have Intuos pro pen and touch.
For me, the touch is overrated. I never use it so it's always turned off. Freaks me out when it's on and all of a sudden my screen rotates. I prefer my little wheel.
Medium is a good size. My 1st tablet (Intuos 4) actually still works. Got it for Christmas probably 7-8 years ago. It was just too big since it was a large lol.

Is there much of a difference between Wacom and Huion besides the price? I may look into a Huion instead.

I personally use Wacom Intuos Pro Medium. It comes with a manga/anime art program which, though I don't use it, has very good reviews. I use Photoshop CC or Paint Tool Sai for artwork.
Wacom tablets tend to last longer than Huion. I've heard a lot of artists say they experience issues with the plugs on Huions after some time. Apparently they have a tendency to get loose.
