I love my gadgets so I’ve owned lots of smart phone, tablets, tablet pencils, and Wacom devices—even a couple of high end Wacom video graphic tablets. I think Apple did a good job with their pencil. However, I rarely use any of them outside of electronic art projects.

I completed my Math degree and Engineering degrees in 1974 so I’ve solved my fair share of problems and taken thousands of pages of technical notes; my opinion is that no electronic drawing device beats a ream of typing paper and a good pen or pencil. (I don’t even use a calculator very often. Once I’m ready to handle numbers I use a computer.)

I'm a theoretical physicist, and the iPad Pro with pencil definitely beats paper for me: I can my move things around, copy and modify an equation, and correct mistakes much more easily. Also, I don't lose notes and I can organize them much more easily (virtual notebooks don't take up space)

This is so interesting to me. I own a large iPad Pro and pencil and didn’t feel that I could write subscripts very easily, kind of like writing with a Crayon. The zooming in and out also caused me to be unable to visualize as well where I wrote something down.

Your comment makes me think I should give it another try. Is there some special note taking App you prefer?
