You have to practice with it. I do a lot of my work with a roller ball, I've found it's easier on my hands, but when I want detail I go to the tablet and love it. I use a Huion tablet with both LR and PS which won't cost you anywhere near what a Wacom will cost you but essentially does the same thing.

If your hand-eye coordination is such that sketching things comes easy, then a tablet using a stylus will enable you to make precise selections in Photoshop, which is the key to good performance in PS. Now the problem is with the more lower cost tablets is that the stylus tip is on the tablet but not on the computer screen. This places an extra dimension between hand and eye and is what frustrates some tablet users. If practice practice practice works for you, your Photoshop performance will take a leap.

I realize the iPad Pro costs a lot more, but isn't it easier to use its pen "directly" on the image than on a grey background?
On the other hand, I thought I read that the range of touch sensitivities using a Wacom pen/surface combination is superior to that of the iPad Pro and its pen. Does anyone know?

I have and use Intous Pro Medium, and small for travel. I find them invaluable. Have not used a mouse for a few years now, the Intous has replaced it full time.

Yes.
Medium size for home use. Smallest when on the road.

I agree. I use the Huion H610Pro with Capture One. You have to force yourself to use it a couple of times, but it is much easier to crop and dodge an burn images using adjustment layers. The Huion is mcc cheaper than the Wacom and is very large. I use it with an IMAC.

I like the medium Intos and have been using one for years.
