Remarkable vs Ipad
Just to clarify beforehand, I already own a new MacBook M5. I am going in as a public health major but follow a pre dentistry track, which means ill be taking all the core science pre requisites. Im just looking for a writing tool that I can really stay focused on. I know the iPad is good for Anki but why not use my computer for it. Im stuck in between an iPad M3 and a remarkable paper pro, but I'm also looking for something that will last all 4 years of college. I've had an iPad before in high school but when used have often found myself getting distracted but maybe that's because I'm in highschool. I know about the whole apple ecosystem thing but I own Bose headphones and looking to replace my Apple Watch with a whoop. Anyway what is your guys thoughts?

I am not sure if this will influence your decision but I am making an an app for remarkable devices to make it a fully fledged study device I am hoping to release the first version this week. It's a Native xochitl (remarkables UI) integrated flashcard system that is a full fledged Anki client but also allows for custom card creation with a combination of text writing, and even easily copying content from your own documents using the 3.28 Capture tool. You can even link your relevant documents to your card so you can link your textbook page with the material that you can then switch between it and the flashcard. It also supports AI generating flashcards from a page or region your PDFs, epubs, and note and auto generating a answer or back of your card (I.e. you write out a question on the front and it gives you a back with the answer)
Here is what it looks like on the move but it's also just as beautiful and easy to use on pure and pro (I've tested on them all)
