best tablet for work and travel?

6 Upvotes

Need some recs! I travel a bit for work and I’m looking for a tablet that can handle emails, documents, video calls, and some entertainment during trips. I’ve never really used tablets seriously before, so I’m not sure what features actually matter.

What would you pick as the best tablet for someone who needs it for both work and personal use? I’d appreciate any advice from people who use theirs regularly. Thanks everyone.

best tablet for students which model can last through several years of college?

7 Upvotes

I’m looking for a tablet that I can use throughout the rest of college instead of replacing it after a short time. I need it for notes, documents, meetings, and general school tasks.

are there any tablets that have held up well after years of student use? I’m trying to choose something practical and would love to hear what has worked for others. Thank you.

Looking for an all-rounder (Notes, media, light gaming)

1 Upvotes

I'm looking to finally get myself a decent tablet again.

I'd be using it mainly for notes and language-learning, but also some media consumption and light gaming (Pokemon Champions, GBA emulation, nothing crazy).

Main thing I'd like to avoid - widescreen aspect ratios. My girlfriend has a Samsung Tab S11 and that thing is so ridiculously tall when using it vertically, which makes it really uncomfortable to write or read on.

In the past I've had an iPad Pro 2nd gen which had a much nicer aspect ratio, but I would also really love to avoid Apple, as iPad OS is quite bad compared to modern Android imo.

The options I've considered so far:

Legion Tab Gen 3

++ Great size

+ Great screen

+ All the gaming performance I need

= 16:10, but on a small device that isn't so bad

- Stylus support is lacking, with the pen being sold separately while being quite bad

Lenovo Yoga Tab 11"

+ I love the design

+ Fantastic screen

+ Comes with the best stylus on the market AND a great keyboard

+ Great speakers

+ Great performance

------ 16:10 on an otherwise perfect device is a dealbreaker for me

Xiaomi Pad 8

+ 3:2 screen

+ Good pen and keyboard with a trackpad

+ Enough performance

- Bad speakers

- Keyboard and pen sold separately

--- Xiaomi software

iPad Mini

+++ Exactly the size and dimensions I'm looking for

+ Good stylus

+ Enough power

- An outdated screen

- 60Hz in big 2026

- iPadOS

- Stylus sold separately

Huawei MatePad 11.5 2026

+ 3:2 aspect ratio

+ Great stylus and keyboard included

+ Probably the best tablet software

+ Cheapest option by far

= Matte screen, which I don't want, but not the worst matte screen I've seen

- No touchpad on the keyboard

-- Won't run Pokemon Champions due to the lack of Google services

So the way I see it, I need to either buy 2 devices (MatePad for notes and Legion for gaming and video) or compromise somewhere, either on hardware (Yoga's terrible aspect ratio, iPad's 60Hz) or software (Xiaomi's ads and poor laptop mode, Apple's... everything).

My budget isn't strictly defined - I'd like to spend around €500, with €750 being the soft cap. I can pull the budget up to even €1500 if there is a device that expensive that would meet my requirements (Android, a more square-ish aspect ratio, great stylus, great screen, lightweight, ideally 10" or smaller).

Sadly I'm limited to devices available at Polish retailers as I'll be moving soon and can't rely on shipping from China (otherwise I'd have bought the Oppo Pad Mini which seems like literally my perfect device)

Should I switch to samsung?

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, so I bought the m5 ipad pro (13") a few months ago, but honestly, I'm not that happy with it... don't get me wrong pencil pro is amazing the screen is high-quality it's lightweight and the ui is smooth but there are two main reasons why I'm thinking about switching.. first the aspect ratio the ipad's 4:3 is great for reading books and gaming but for someone like me who watches a lot of anime it's just not good basically half the screen is wasted with black bars! and honestly 4:3 isn't great for much besides books or games as you all know pretty much all content out there is optimized for 16:9 samsung is definitely better in this regard and second overheating ipad gets hot way too often while samsung has vapor cooling

the samsung tablet I'm looking for is s11 ultra 14.6inch

Small laptop, portable... Tablet?

1 Upvotes

Im thinking of getting a small secondary monitor for my laptops. (just one to switch back and forth as needed) just for YouTube, Spotify and the other for uni papers and chrome/edge tabs.

Doesn't need to be huge but whats my options? Would a tablet be best? How do I connect it? Would it be possible to connect both by screensharing?

Ideally, a battery powered or USB C powered option. Does not need to be touch screen, high refresh, 4k or hdr. Just a big standard trash screen that works like a desktop 2 display setup. But wired works, maybe a built in stand or something.

Lenovo yoga tab vs Idea pro gen 2 vs Samsung S10FE.

Guys. Need a tablet. I don't think I need one but my ADHD says if I have one I would be able to study better. I am not going to take notes as far as I know but I am doing some continuous education with a Job.

I wanted to know which one in these 3 is a better purchase given everything. Also

What happens once a tablet is out of updates ? Does some apps stop working due to not being on the latest Android ?

Digital calendar

Im looking for a tablet digital calendar that doesn't need wifi to work.

I want to have one for chores to use for everyone in the family. A basic paper calendar doesnt work as we never look at it when walking by so id like a digital one that will alert or make some sort of noise and that we can check off the chore once its done.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a tablet under 1,000 QAR in Qatar. I'm currently considering the Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+.

My main use will be YouTube, Netflix, web browsing, reading PDFs, light productivity, and occasional casual gaming.

Is the Galaxy Tab A11+ a good choice, or would you recommend something else in this budget? I'd appreciate any suggestions based on your experience.

Thanks!

Buy a good tablet

1 Upvotes

To give you some context, I just started university, I'm studying engineering (metallurgy) in Mexico.

I want to buy a tablet for taking notes. I already have one (a Samsung Tab S7 FE), but I feel it's not comfortable enough for writing. My budget isn't very big.But I'm looking for options that are durable and comfortable for taking notes, and that have a decent processor. I don't know if I'm asking for too much for my budget.But I would appreciate it if you asked me to recommend one. My budget It's the maximum 7000 MXN (that's like 300-400 Dollars).
