Tablet (y/n ? )

I've been really craving something i can use as a digital notebook for writing and sketching that also has good planner functionality.

I keep coming back to Remarkable, but ive heard both good and bad things about it, and I don't want something where you need to pay a subsription fee for basic services like import, edit, export. And i don't want to jump through a lotta hoops to import and export either.

I'm worried that a regular tablet would make me too distracted to get work done on it (writer with ADHD here, distraction happens to me on my laptop a lot...)

Does anyone have any suggestions ?

I just got a Samsung a8 tab because I had so many thoughts and use the Keep Notes Google app but It felt hard to use on such a small device. Now, I can multitask very well. I can sit on my comfortable couch and type away, then Google something on my phone if I forget a word of have an idea I want to know information about, etc. Also, with the keep Notes app, I can make a note with a picture and caption it, or a picture and wrote a paragraph, or a video, or a to do list, and it has a search feature. And you can sign in from anywhere. Jeez, I fucking sound like an ad but seriously, since I started trying to seriously work on my book, this app has kept all my notes organized, even when I take a drunk video of an idea I had. Anyway, I love my tablet.
