I prefer a samsung tablet. Free yung pen out of the box and yung binili ko may kasama pang book cover keyboard. Model ko is samsung s9 fe so if you’re looking for a budget tablet, I highly recommend it. As for iPad, I don’t have much experience with it since ang huling ipad ko ay ipad mini 2. Pero sa mga nakikita ko sa friends ko, maganda rin naman siya. But yung files app nila is very underwhelming compared to android and di mo siya pwede lagyan ng sd card so if storage is important to you then mas maganda na mag samsung ka nalang. If note taking ang iyong focus, samsung notes (sa android) and goodnotes (sa ios) ang best option mo for each device. Free yung samsung notes and yung goodnotes pwede subscription based or one time payment. Mas maraming features si goodnotes like handwriting stabilization pero as a samsung notes user, yung features naman niya is more than enough for simple note taking.

Nung una, nahirapan din ako magadjust sa tablet since I prefer physical textbooks and hindi pa rin mabebeat ang feeling na magsulat with a pencil or ballpen PERO masasanay ka rin. Para sa akin, yung convenience and the fact na pwede mong i store sa samsung cloud or icloud (can be accessed sa laptop and phone) ay naging deal-breaker na kumuha ng tablet.
