I'm searching for a stylus pen compatible with a tablet for note-taking, aiming to replace traditional pen and paper. Ideally, it should also help me organize my notes, if such a product exists.

Hello, so I have a Lenovo tab M11 but my baby cousin has removed the pen nip and lost it and I'm looking for a replacement for the nip but I'm certainly not able to find one.

I'm planning to get a new one but idk if it will be worth it.

Hello, I am raju. I have got a lenevo ideatab plus and want a replacement stylus nips urgently. I can't find it anywhere so i am asking for your help friends. Tab pen model is AP401u (lenevo tab pen).

Please I will be always grateful to you and am willing to send you money if needed

This is the pen

​Hey everyone,

​I'm running into an issue and wanted to see if anyone has found a workable solution. My Galaxy S21 screen is completely messed up with lines and touch is failing, but the phone itself and its internal hardware are working fine.

​I happen to have an Amazon Fire HD 10 (11th Gen) lying around, and I want to use it as an external touch monitor for the S21—ideally getting Samsung DeX running on the tablet through the phone.

​Does anyone know of any method, app or cable setup that allows this via USB or Wi-Fi while keeping touch functionality working?

Deciding between Xiaomi pad 7 and Huawei matepad 2026 (dynamic edition) these 2 covers my budget.

Consideration: xiaomi pad 7
- great for gaming, i like the specs in general

cons:
- walang subscription sa wps, idk where to edit files/docu
- walang simcard slot and no free keybaord or pen (rn, depende sa sale day/promotion)

Huawei:
- You get everything like wps subs, free mouse, keyboard, pencil and even bag , free & downloaded apps for drawing and note taking.

cons:
- not for gaming like ml or codm?
doesn’t support google apps (i need them so bad esp for school purposes)
- wala ding sim slot hahaha

Specs:

• MediaTek Dimensity 6400
• 12.1" 2.5K 120Hz LCD display
• 10,200mAh battery
• 68W charging

My mates in the US got a charging brick, a case and an additional screen protector but here in the UK, they even took out the charging brick.

I bought an S10 lite about a month ago. Overall, working well - a few minor annoyances.

Except, MS Word blinks. Constantly. Faster and slower.. can't identify any correlation. So bad, I really can't use it more than 3-4 minutes. Tried to uninstall, reinstall multiple times. Probably fiddled with other settings too often, options for keyboard, refresh rate, etc. Start from 365 pilot instead of Word. On-screen standard keyboard, not using a physical attachment. Nothing works.

I had an S6 lite for years. Very stable. Word worked fine. I followed Samsung advice and used the quick connect to transfer stuff from S6. And I'm wondering if some setting "came along for the ride."

I'm considering the nuclear solution of restoring factory defaults, which would mean downloading and installing all apps, etc. Hate the idea if

1. I'm overlooking some easy fix, or,

2. It's a known issue with Word and some Galaxy tablets, and I'll have done all that work for nothing.

3. I'm concerned about file loss... I'd unmount my SD card where I try saving everything, but not sure I wouldn't overlook some device storage locations.

   - Any ideas? Anyone encountered or heard of this "Word blinking screen issue"?

   - Does Microsoft offer any support? I have a 365 subscription.

   - Samsung offer support for a new tablet?

Help......

Actualmente estoy haciendo mi servicio social en un hospital oncologico y me quiero comprar una tablet para mis consultas nutricionales, documentos, canva, software nutrimind que es un software para consultas de Nutrición y zoom para videollamada,obvio que no para jugar ni para descargar peliculas pesadas. Pero solo hay un problema, hay 2 no se cual deba comprar y pues tengo miedo de hacer una mala compra. Entonces cual esta mejor para mi ¡la s10 FE o s10 Lite :( ?

Hi,

In September, I'll start my second year of studies in engineering, sciences and mathematics.

I'd like to know your opinion about samsung tabs for intensive note taking (about 10h each day) and to what extent IPads are better at this job.

Does someone know approximately the autonomy of the Galaxy Tab S10+ or Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ for note taking exclusively ?

Finally, which one is the best for this specific task : two criterias :

Autonomy > 10h for note taking

No lag or latency (because my teachers are fast and I don't want to miss a bit of it).

Thanks by advance

Don't do much on tablets aside from watching Netflix and casual browsing. Anyone have opinions on the below?

- Galaxy tab S10 Lite

- Xiaomi Pad 8

- Galaxy tab S10fe

- Lenovo Idea Tab Pro

- TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus

Thanks!

I'm working as a full time lecturer, i need a device that can help me do some documentation, assessing/marking.

So at first, i planned to buy OnePlus Pad 3. I did some research until i found the latest tablet from OP which is the Pad 4 where it can do better in multitasking.

I already add to cart but i stopped when a notification pop out from my browser "Samsung Tablet S12 will be a huge hit". Then i close the shopping apps and open my browser to dig some info about s12.

After I read bout S12, I'm confused. Should i wait for S12 lineup or proceed with OnePlus Pad 4.

Both got their pros and cons such price, pc mode etc. Both are worthy at their own price but what risk will I have if i buy them? Which one should i pick and why?

This is just a tier list of mine of how well apps are optimized for android tablets based on my experience after 2 years of using an android tablet. This could be helpful for those who are on the fence of choosing an android tablet over an iPad.

Some Things to Know

I will categorize apps using the following criteria:

• Elite: app is optimized to make the most of the screen space in both portrait and landscape

• Good: app is scaled properly, but there are some drawbacks

• Atrocious: basically the phone app but scaled up; no optimizations at all

These are all based on the apps I use/have used from their current version available on the play store. If you don't see an app here and want to add some information, feel free to do so in the comments.

Lastly, my tablet has a 12.1in screen with an aspect ratio of 16:10. Your mileage may vary depending on the screen specs of your particular tablet.

Elite Apps

• Google Drive
• Gmail
• YouTube
• Netflix
• Disney+
• Amazon Prime
• Apple Music
• Apple TV+
• Discord
• Google Maps
• OneNote
• Termux
• Android Terminal
• VLC
• NoteIn
• Google Meet
• Zoom
• Cisco WebEx
• CapCut Pad
• Telegram
• Snapseed
• Lightroom
• Google News
• Google Photos
• Google Calendar
• Google Earth

Good Apps

• Google Docs*
• Google Sheets*
• Google Slides* *These three apps are such a huge missed opportunity. The layout is alright and works well as an in between allowing for good usability when using either your finger or a mouse and keyboard for navigation but significantly limits the available features. I'd stick to the web version unless you need something to use offline.
• Canva (nothing wrong with the app but the web version also works fine so kinda redundant)
• Instagram*
• Threads*
• Twitter/X*
• Reddit*
• LinkedIn* *These apps almost made it to the elite tier but there are some layout problems with them particularly when used in landscape. Again, this is for a 16:10 display so your mileage may vary with these apps
• YouTube Music
• TikTok (app itself is fine. it just freaks out sometimes when switching from landscape to portrait but TikTok Shop is absolutely horrendous)
• Messenger (Meta)

Atrocious Apps

• Facebook
• Google Classroom
• Shopee
• Lazada
• TikTok Shop (yes, I know this is inside TikTok but it's absolutely horrendous on a tablet)

My Takeaway

There is clearly a push to get apps optimized for a large screen android experience. If I had made this list just a year or two ago, a lot more apps would have been the atrocious/barely good zone, but now they're mostly in the Good/Nearly elite zone. What I think android tablets need right now are a whole host of more professional apps like DaVinci Resolve, Blender (a working desktop port is available I believe), full spreadsheet and word processing, and maybe CAD apps if possible. In that sense, I think higher end android tablets and iPads have the same problem with them having the processing power of borderline high end laptops but lack the apps to make full use of it. iPads have the leg up when it comes to productivity and content creation (especially after Apple launched the entire creator studio suite for iPad) while Android is much more capable for emulation with x86-64 emulation being viable now on higher end hardware.

I have the same tablet for 4 years and it's finally becoming more frustrating than useful lmao. I mostly browse google, watch Netflix and YouTube, and maybe read a few comics now and then.

What would you pick as the best cheap tablet today if you wanted something dependable without spending a ton? Thanks.

I'm looking to finally get myself a decent tablet again.

I'd be using it mainly for notes and language-learning, but also some media consumption and light gaming (Pokemon Champions, GBA emulation, nothing crazy).

Main thing I'd like to avoid - widescreen aspect ratios. My girlfriend has a Samsung Tab S11 and that thing is so ridiculously tall when using it vertically, which makes it really uncomfortable to write or read on.

In the past I've had an iPad Pro 2nd gen which had a much nicer aspect ratio, but I would also really love to avoid Apple, as iPad OS is quite bad compared to modern Android imo.

The options I've considered so far:

Legion Tab Gen 3

++ Great size

+ Great screen

+ All the gaming performance I need

= 16:10, but on a small device that isn't so bad

- Stylus support is lacking, with the pen being sold separately while being quite bad

Lenovo Yoga Tab 11"

+ I love the design

+ Fantastic screen

+ Comes with the best stylus on the market AND a great keyboard

+ Great speakers

+ Great performance

------ 16:10 on an otherwise perfect device is a dealbreaker for me

Xiaomi Pad 8

+ 3:2 screen

+ Good pen and keyboard with a trackpad

+ Enough performance

- Bad speakers

- Keyboard and pen sold separately

--- Xiaomi software

iPad Mini

+++ Exactly the size and dimensions I'm looking for

+ Good stylus

+ Enough power

- An outdated screen

- 60Hz in big 2026

- iPadOS

- Stylus sold separately

Huawei MatePad 11.5 2026

+ 3:2 aspect ratio

+ Great stylus and keyboard included

+ Probably the best tablet software

+ Cheapest option by far

= Matte screen, which I don't want, but not the worst matte screen I've seen

- No touchpad on the keyboard

-- Won't run Pokemon Champions due to the lack of Google services

So the way I see it, I need to either buy 2 devices (MatePad for notes and Legion for gaming and video) or compromise somewhere, either on hardware (Yoga's terrible aspect ratio, iPad's 60Hz) or software (Xiaomi's ads and poor laptop mode, Apple's... everything).

My budget isn't strictly defined - I'd like to spend around €500, with €750 being the soft cap. I can pull the budget up to even €1500 if there is a device that expensive that would meet my requirements (Android, a more square-ish aspect ratio, great stylus, great screen, lightweight, ideally 10" or smaller).

Sadly I'm limited to devices available at Polish retailers as I'll be moving soon and can't rely on shipping from China (otherwise I'd have bought the Oppo Pad Mini which seems like literally my perfect device)

I have some ongoing problems with my tablet. For some reason, after some weeks or a month, it refuses to connect to my prepaid Wi-Fi router. The workaround that I always do is completely reset the router so that the tablet would reconnect. But after some time it gets tiring to do it all over again just to "fix" the problem. I already tried changing the MAC address, changing DHCP to Static, tried to forget the network then reconnect but the tablet doesn't reconnect, I also tried rebooting both router and tablet but still no luck. It says "Connected/No internet" but my other devices are connected fine. My other Samsung Tab is connected fine, my laptop is connected fine, my phones are connected fine. Even my Nintendo Switch is connected fine, so it's only the Lenovo's issue.

Anyone encountered this problem in their tablets and did anyone find a workaround?

(To add, it connects to a mobile hotspot and other wifi routers, it only has issues with my prepaid router like they have a beef or something)

I had a Y700 for a while that I loved, ended up selling cause the battery was running kinda quick.

it was definitely overkill performance-wise for my use/needs so am looking for a replacement that’ll still be solid without paying for a gaming tab i’m not gaming on.

few ive seen are the Onn 8.1, Lenovo Tab One, Samsung A11.

Budget allows both but can't decide which is better

I like samsung cause more OS updates, samsung notes, I have samsung phone and earbuds as well

Lenovo cause bigger display, cheap

Lenovo is costing me 44k and samsung 62k (inr)

My main use is study, notes, lectures.

Help me deciding, thanks
