I prefer pen and paper for most things. For that I'd recommend the supernote [1] with the utmost confidence. It has single-handedly changed my life. My biggest issue was I wanted to go digital (because paper sucks to handle) but my experience with the usual suspects in the tablet market left a lot to be desired. I didn't really need all the bells and whistles. Just a paper replacement. I didn't want to use org mode or anything because after trying these things the retention I got out of it wasn't great.

I've been using it for months for basically everything from project ideas to journaling and I've been impressed.

I considered those for a long time and ended up with the latest iPad Mini. Procreate and Notability are so ridiculously compared to the homebrew solutions eink tablets come with. I cam draw stuff and them colour it and Airdrop it to my laptop.

My iPad is still confined to paper replacement duty, and it excels.

Yeah I think it comes down to preference. I have an iPad as well and a windows tablet. Both were more than sufficient for note-taking but often times I would forget to plug them in or something and suddenly I had a dead notebook. Plus I almost never used the features that made these worth 1200+ dollars. Seemed like money I just lit on fire for a note taking tablet to be honest. The android tablets were also considered but I degoogled years ago and won't go back.

eInk leaves a lot to be desired still but the input latency on the supernote seems comparable to the iPad. I think the tactile experience is superior and for me that sacrifice was worth it. I can go a few weeks without charging my supernote and my iPad requires a charge at least once every couple days. The supernote also seems better set up for bullet Journaling and what not. It definitely is exactly as offered - a notebook replacement. Nothing more and nothing less. I find that charming.
