Tablet recommendation

[anxious_ant]

I'm thinking of buying a tablet for my 11 year old daughter who is really into drawing. She currently uses a drawing pad on the PC but would like a table instead,

I'm currently thinking of Apple iPad as I believe there are more app available but also considering Samsung tablets as they are much cheaper.

I'm not an Android user though so would like to know if this option would be suitable.

I would also prefer a secure platform and my impression is that Apple is better here?
