guess any tablet will do. Tablet size = screen size. So if u have a huge screen, u want a huge table.
I got a wacom intous pro, medium, works great, got a deal on it. It's like 5 years old by now. Head over to /ic/, they have a tablet general and will point u in the right direction depending on budget.

check out the Huion Kamvas models that came out last year & XP-pen artist. they're legitimate competitors to wacome at a lower price point for the same quality stuff. I bought a Huion Kamvas 13" as my first tablet and I love it, but will be upgrading to a larger screen when I'm rich and famous. Likely another Huion. 13" is more than just ok for working on things, but... biggerrrr

I have a smaller basic Wacom tablet and a chinese Huion tablet with a ton of surface area and lots of buttons.
The Huion has the advantage of size, but the pen needs to be charged and the surface is almost totally frictionless. The pen tip feels flimsy and loosely attached. The quality in general is pretty meh and it's not that great to draw with.
The Wacom is a lot better despite having only 4 buttons for shortcuts. The pen requires no charging and there's a small amount of friction that helps give the same physical feedback you get when drawing on paper. It's just a better tablet.
The point is that you shouldn't buy a chink tablet just because it seems like a good deal. The build quality isn't guaranteed to be great and they might lack important features. Not all of them are necessarily crap, but some are.

chink tablets have been battery free for years anon.

I was going to say the more recent models are probably improved. The one I have is from 2016. Battery free isn't everything though.

I got a newer one from Huion, they fixed the surface, it feels more like paper now, better than my old Wacom to be honest.
Pen tip is not that great, but good enough for my use cases. My only criticism is the buttons on it, they have to much resistance (feel clicky), and they don't stand out from the rest of the pen, I often have to look at the pen rotation in order to position my fingers correctly.
Build quality is good enough, feels solid and not cheap.
Its bigger than a Wacom Intuos Pro medium but smaller than a big one but only cost 1/5 of the medium and 1/10 of the big one.
DESU Fuck Wacom and their prices.

Jumping onto what OP started, recommend me a tablet with a screen that isn't as shit expensive as a Cintiq, someone recommended me a Kamvas Pro but maybe you know a few more.

I have a kamvas pro 16, no complaints really. It's not particularly colour accurate or bright though but from what I know most screen tablets aren't, it'll still be necessary to have a good calibrated normal monitor for ground truth.

I can still look at my PC monitor for adjustments I assume.

I'm a newbie to all this. Can I use a drawing tablet to make hyper-realistic 3D sculpts, even if my laptop is old and weak?
