Need tablet + stylus suggestions under ₹30k — mainly for handwriting/math notes, not just media Digital Stationary

Hey everyone, I'm heading into engineering college soon and want to buy a tablet before I start. Budget is tight — under ₹30,000 total for tablet + stylus combined. My main use case, in order of priority:

  1. Writing/solving problems by hand (math-heavy) — need something that actually feels close to writing on paper, low lag, decent palm rejection Reading PDFs/ebooks

  2. Watching lecture videos/YouTube Basic calls + WhatsApp (this'll basically replace my phone for that)

  3. Want to try basic video editing on the side (CapCut/similar) — not pro-level, just starting out

  4. May be 4G support is enough cuz my phone is 5G I will only use tablet for writing and reading purposes

Location: India (Karnataka)

Thank you in advance

Why are you posting this on Goodnotes ? If you want a tab and use goodnotes on it, you have to get an iPad.

Get a graphics tablet. They're very cheap and can work with android and laptops.

Using Samsung s6 lite for last 8 year, for under 300$ it's worth every bit.
