Tablet suggestions for taking handwritten notes
I’m looking for a midrange android tablet, exclusively for taking notes with a stylus in Obsidian. It doesn’t need to be powerful, but just take good notes. The ideal size is anything 11’’ and under. I would also appreciate if it isn’t too bloated, and behaves similar to stock android. I have looked mostly into the Pixel Tablet as well as the Lenovo M11, P11 and K11. Other suggestions are welcome.
I got myself an Onyx boox e ink tablet for note taking. I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for but it runs android and writes beautifully. Good battery life with the e ink. I love mine. It is more expensive than an equivalent standard tablet though and no back light on my model.
I have also been looking into that. Would you say it is better than a tablet for you? I love the smaller size and focus on writing, but since it’s around $200 more expensive than a comparable tablet I’m not sure whether I should get one.
I love my onyx. I use it for running RPGs, it’s great for taking notes and reading pdfs. Plus as it’s still running android you can run regular apps and browse. It’s a more focused experience than a general tablet but I’d say worth the money for my use case.
