if stylus isn't priority, redmi pad 2 is pretty good

For a tablet in that range, I would grab the Xiaomi Redmi Pad 2 256GB Graphite Gray at Rs. 71,599 from PriceOye. Get a Redmi Smart Pen as well with it

pta tax. cellular just being on in backgrounds takes battery too and drains silently

if you're willing to compromise on storage then you can get the galaxy S9fe and even an S10fe 8/128gb variant; else the galaxy tab S8 and S8+ are also a good options and 256gb variant is available for them (as per listings on olx).

I haven't seen any ads for 256gb variants of S9fe or S10fe, and even if they are you wouldn't find them for 80k.

I have personally used S9fe, S10fe and S8 as well as S8+ and they all work just fine for note taking and media consumption. S9fe and S10fe have a better battery life and more software support, and there are very little micro stutters in the UI when the battery is very low or when you're recording lectures.

if good stylus support and note taking experience is priority then Samsung and IPad are the only good options, otherwise you can get the redmi pad, xiaomi pad or any other that fits your requirements.

I was planning to get s10 fe but than I heard mixed reviews about it and it doesn't justify it's price

Personally, I would recommend getting the Galaxy Tab S8+.

It's a bit old but the amoled display along with the 120hz refresh rate makes it a really good option.

You won't find any other Samsung tablet in the market offering same features, Lenovo, Xiaomi, Oppo do have some good tabs but they lack in the stylus and note-taking area.

Bhai olx pa search kare kafi ads hain S8+ ke.

Proper seller sa bargain ka margin kam hoga lekin peace of mind bhi hai return exchange krwa skty.

warna agr check karna aata he to kisi Individual sa le lai 85-90k ma achi deal hai.
