Use what you use for taking notes currently.

If you don’t take notes currently, a device for taking notes probably won’t change that.

Note taking is a habit not a technology. It is a way of thinking. Not a set of tools.

For example, no device can replicate writhing notes in the margin of a book. Not even other pieces of paper. An underlined sentence can only happen where the sentence occurs.

If you want a new Surface buy one because you want one. Don’t pretend that it will cause you to take up note taking.
