xiaomi vs apple tablet for note taking in uni
i’m a bio student in desperate need for a tablet to take notes, store study materials and slides and just a better studying set up. i also plan to read research papers, annotate and combine methods for my own learning.
i already own a MacBook and iPhone, and i wouldn’t want to give in to spending double the price on an iPad just for the sake of the ecosystem. i’m also on a really tight budget and saving up for an iPad would take me way too long whereas a Xiaomi Pad 8 would ease my learning almost immediately at a very affordable price. Also the Xiaomi Pad 8 is in general a very good device for its price!
i’m just curious, what constraints could i stumble upon if i get the xiaomi that would genuinely make me regret getting an android over an iPad??
I’d appreciate any help.
