Yes

They've got their uses. It was nice when I lived with my parents and was car shopping because I could just bring it upstairs and hand my dad a screen. Plus I can just toss it in my pocket, can't do that with a laptop. Being able to whip out a device that runs desktop software without having to carry a bag or anything is pretty great. Main use now is for BOINC but I still grab it here and there when going to a friend's house or other stuff.
>>
>>58896781
Pretty handy for reading and editing pdfs desu. Great for school, have all my textbooks on there. Don't need anything fancy but a bigger screen size helps imo. The closest to the size of what an actual textbook page would be best

I want a tablet like the surface pro to take notes on.

Tablets without a stylus are useless desu
>>
>>58897406
depends on what kind of stylus you mean
wacom one? capacitive one?
>>
>>58897438
He clearly didn't mean a capacitive one.
>>
>>58897438

like the surface pro one, something that can be used for drawing
>>
>>58897454
But not all capacitive pens are bad
It all depends on what kind of layer the screen has
My T100HA >>58897308
with good capacitive pen is pretty desu
>>
>>58896781
it's pretty comfy as an internet browser on a couch/bed, that's pretty much all I use it for

obviously you could do the same with a phone or a laptop, but it's not going to be as comfy

Because there is no stylus provided by asus
You get any capacitive stylus you want.
I recommend pic rel. It has an additional, smaller tip for more precision

disgusting

That's the bigger tip. If you remove it you get another one inside.

Had 7 android tablets, all of them crap. ( rooting, no updates...etc ) Bought a venue 8 pro when it came out ( 4 or 5 years ago ), love it. Great quallity, still 90% of original battery life ( 7-8 hours ) updates all the time. Can run android shit if needed. ( if somebody cares ) Use it to browse, shitpost, and best thing when traveling abroad. Have a galaxy 10.1 lte for the kids, not a bad device, but also not comfortable to hold when reading.

I want a tablet that I can use for PDFs, light browsing and maybe some notes taking.

What should I look for? Do I need a really good screen? Do I need a stylus for notes taking? Writing on a screen keyboard is too slow for me.
>>
I swapped one into my car's center console in place of a radio head unit. Even a phablet would be way too small for that. It's also a simpler alternative to building a carputer and then mounting a separately purchased touchscreen. Unfortunately I think the tablet screen is already starting to get a bit wonky from the temperature variations.
>>
>>58898514
I haven't really been keeping up with the tablet game lately but I'd definitely get something with a stylus if you're going to be taking notes
>>
>>58897767
They are fine, bit they are still 7-10 years behind Wacom. Seriously just save up for a 22HD, or buy a uset 21UX om EBay

almost 100% of what I use it for, except for some occasional youtube videos.
It's an old, dirt cheap kindle fire and there are lots of thing that suck about it, but with the amount of use I get out of it I can't justify the price of a new 10-inch tablet (if anyone has recs please let me know).
>>
I want to get one to try and run Ubuntu on it just because they're so light. Probably wont work well but it's tempting.
>>
They are a meme. It's a niche item. Because of smart phones you don't really need one, it's literally just a bigger version with no cellular ability.
>>
>>58900759
>it's literally just a bigger version with no cellular ability
That's the point. Phablets are dumb and phones are too small. And you can get ones with cellular radios
>>
I got an android tablet for my birthday and I haven't even opened it. I'm on my PC 100% of the time. I barley even use my phone.
>>
>>58900881
>too small
Is a Note 5 small? Or other phablet type phones.
>>
>>58900923
Compared to an 8" tablet? Yes.
>>
The size is good for media consumption, cartoon girls and comics and shit, but phones make them redundant.

My next phone could as well be a phablet if there was a good one.

I got a free ipad I use to read the news while I shit

Kinda gotta agree with you there. It's good because of portability. But I wouldn't even try to use the thing for anything else. It's a content consumption device, not a creation device. *cough* apple *cough* iPad Pro.

I'm looking for a windows tablet with a good digitizer and stylus to take notes during work.

I'm working as a project engineer at different factories and need a tablet for easy way to take notes and add tags to each note.

What would you guys recomend?

I have been looking at the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 because I've heard a lot of great things about it's stylus and screen, but I think I would be better off with a windows tablet.
>>
>>58896889
If you don't care about media consumption, reading etc., no.
Amazon's Fire Tablets are fucking nice for the price though
>>
>>58901870
>windows, a gaymen OS

Just buy a fucking ThinkPad.

Small windows tablets are great. Can be taken anywhere because they are light but can run every application and aren't restricted by a shitty phone OS.

13-inch Lenovo replaced my university text books and I use it for reading most materials students get - powerpoint presentations, pdf files, etc. Also: browsing web while lying on the couch

and a simple built-in projector was handy for watching movies

You're a meme machine.

Uhh dare I suggest an iPad Pro? I mean it would fit the bill, if you get a 9 inch it might even fit in some coat pockets.
>>
>>58896781
I only use my phone for general phone use and as a remote for my HTPC, where the form factor obviously works well. I only browse or read or some shit like that if I'm not at home, in which case the phone is the only thing I have with me.

I have a Windows tablet, I use it as a general tablet at home, on business trips where taking my laptop isn't worth it and whenever I need an actual computer but can't use my desktop for some reason. Phones are just too small to actually do anything on them beyond tapping at it for a few minutes at a time.

Which windows tablet do you recomend?

I'm looking for one at least 10" with a good stylus/digitizer for drawing electrical scethces.

I'm not up to date on new Windows tablets, I have an Asus T100TA, it was a pretty low cost model. Works fine for me, but it has a few issues. The screen is only 1366x768, it's not great even at 10" and it sometimes has some stability issues when connecting/disconnecting the keyboard/dock and on 2.4GHz WiFi.

I use mine as a portable drawing tablet.

8-11 hours battery life
microUSB charging from any 2A powerbank, (iPad charger works best with this imo, the original surface charger sucks fucking balls and shocks you periodically.)
Play older PC games such as modded Oblivion, Need For Speed Underground, Age of Mythology, etc.
One of the most color accurate screens available.

The Surface 3 is more of the ultimate netbook successor for me rather than a pure consumption tablet.

Are memes a meme?

Standard pocket size won't fit a 7inch tablet, like the Nexus 7. Unless you're wearing jnco jeans, I guarantee that you're bullshitting faggots on a Taiwanese primitive musical chat room.
>>
>>58906357
I have never bought jeans with tablet pocketability in mind and yet all of my 7" and 8" tablets have fit in every pair but one. Hell even the standard issue pants from when I worked at McDonald's were easily able to accommodate my tablets.
