r/tablets

both of them are used so the price doesn't really matter.

I mostly do art and some gaming.

I’m considering getting the Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro with the Focus Pen Pro and Focus Keyboard for school and general use, and I have a few questions.

How well does palm rejection work with the Focus Pen Pro in Xiaomi’s official Notes app? Is it reliable when writing naturally with your hand resting on the screen? For example, does it ever register unintended touches, cause flickering, or interrupt input when lifting the pen or trying to zoom?

How does the palm rejection compare in other apps that are commonly used by students and are compatible with Xiaomi/Android? Are there any note-taking apps you would specifically recommend where palm rejection works really well?

More generally, how is the overall experience of using the Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro as a student device? This includes note-taking, media consumption (like Netflix), and some casual gaming. Is the display comfortable to use in low-light conditions, and how is the writing experience overall?

How is the battery, how long does it take to charge the tab 8 pro to 100% and how long can I use the tab until the battery runs out for example from Monday to Friday only in school and for learning. Is the battery life also good?

Would you say it’s worth buying for both school and everyday use?

I have the Galaxy Tab A7 which is solely used for media consumption. I had it for more that 5 years now and is in need of replacing as battery is not keeping up and the thing that is bothering me most is that whenever the charging cable is attached, phantom touches will make the tablet useless until it charges back up, even if I am only watching Netflix with locked screen.

Can you help me find a budget tablet that would last me a few good years for media consumption please? 🙏🏻🙏🏻

please help me remove the bar with three dots that’s on top if that’s even possible it’s annoying and ruins my watching experience

I'm going a little nuts trying to select a device primarily for reading and note taking, and could use some pointers. My criteria (I think):

Required:
Reading PDFs, TXT/DOC and kindle (presumably through Android app), possibly websites but I want to be able to focus, so full online capabilities may be a distraction
Marking up those readings
Note taking in lectures, etc.
Some sketching, with decent or better stylus
Probably around 10" screen (my kindle paperwhite would be too small, but something in between it and 11" might be good))
Reduced eyestrain (so probably e-ink, but the TCL Nxtpaper sounds interesting, too.)

Probably color screen
OS is probably Android (I'm not an Apple person. My laptop is Windows.)

Ideally:
(Well) under $500 US (I'm on the fence about the Boox Note Air 5C)
Micro SD card slot for file transfer unless the device has other easy methods to transfer between my laptop.
Detachable keyboard (but not necessary)

Contenders I've been considering so far:
Boox Note Air 5C (but would like to spend less)
Ranta Supernote Manta (not color, also fairly expensive, but I like the repairability)
TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus (palm rejection problems?)
Less well-known brands are OK, too
I think a reMarkable device that does what i'm looking for is too expensive

Or ... ditch the bluelight issue and go for a Samsung or Lenovo, etc.

Thanks!!

Hey there. I need some guidance

I already have an iPhone and a MacBook Pro, and I need a tablet but really don’t want to shell out a ton of money on it. That being said, my potential contenders are the iPad A16 (with Apple Pencil) and the OnePlus Pad 3. I’m concerned about whether to choose: more ecosystem integrated, or more powerful overall. Both are at the same price.

Thanks for your attention, I’m reading y’all.
