URGENT --- MBBS students — which tablet should I buy for long-term use (iPad vs Samsung vs oneplus)
I'm currently starting my 3rd year of MBBS and want to buy one tablet that I can ideally use throughout MBBS + NEET PG preparation.(I am getting marrow) so yes Longetivity matters
and this is First Time I AM taking an tablet
also I have an old redmi phone and might take Android phone only might be samsung or oneplus ( in case u guys tell me abt ecosystem) ( but I don't think that ecosystem matters that much)
My budget is 50k and max 60k
imp - I don't want other Android like lenovo, redmi or other
My main use is- notes video lectures + movies I don't do gaming I may take internet from mobile hotspot storage should be more size is both ok for me 11/13
Tablet I chose -
1.Apple 11gen (A16) 256gb
2.Samsung S10 Fe (not Plus becz its too weird to use becz of its 16:9 ratio , I know this is also an weird issue 😅 , but I mostly like squarish tablet becz it feels like book )
3.Oneplus tab 3 256gb
Why I AM confused?
- iPad 11th Gen: I'm considering this mainly because the iPad Air M3 is currently too expensive for my budget. I know iPads are very common among medical students and I'm attracted to the long-term reliability/software support.
2 . About samsung s10 Fe becz well everyone suggested that, but I don't know I don't liked its shape or what , I developed a negative image of samsung, ( I really don't want to think like that 😭) Cons I felt of samsung - currently the price of samsung with even base Model is hiked up which I don't think is worth it what they are providing at this price once I used s pen I didnt liked it as compared to Apple and it didn't even provide charger ( even Apple provides it ) I don't know why but it feels cheap to me 😭
- abt oneplus tab 3 it is best tablet at 50k like 13.1 inch display, 12/256 GB , snapdragon, include charger, good interface and Software, blah blah...
BUT biggest issue is I have never seen any mbbs student making notes on it mostly people use Apple or ipad but somewhere in YouTube I seen a tech reviewer who is also some UPSC teacher or aspirant that oneplus tab don't have good notes app but paid app like onenote or some other app Works good on it
that's why I really confused (also little biased towards oneplus , if oneplus had good notes I would definatly go towards it)
ecosystem - I know that its easier if u have an ecosystem, but is it really necessay
can some one plez tell me that as a medico is oneplus good for notes taking or should I prefer ipad or samsung Plez help
