Looking for a tablet for taking notes in engineering and deeper math classes.

I always used paper or typing (shoutout notesnook), but I want to have a big digital handwritten journal to look back at and reference.

Or if anyone is familiar with custom ROMs for android and know a good and easy to flash tablet.

I already have a thinkpad x1 carbon laptop for everything else.

Tablet will be separate for reading, home assistant, taking notes with Saber and watching entertainment.

Again, looking for a decently easy Linux tablet or de-googleable tablet with an advanced stylus.

And I’d prefer not supportting Microsoft or Google of course. And budget strictly under $200 l.

Thanks!

    Tell me more about the framework laptop with a stylus! I thought this was a fascinating concept but also thought that the stylus would just be a gimmick for me.

    What are you running on it?

      I went with Fedora 42 since it was recommended and it works well. The stylus support is good. Tested Krita and it was great, much better than expected :) The Framework stylus isn’t out yet so I got a Metapen M2 on recommendation from the forums.

      Not using the framework but on my minisfourm v3 I use the stylus more than I expected. Xournal++ is great for notes and writing.

      Gimp has decent pressure support but I’m not an artist so that’s a gimmick to me which might be critical for others.
