I used to have an iPad Air 2 (9.7") tablet which, in itself, suited the purpose. The main problem was that I really got tired after looking into a source of light for an extended period of time. The other (admittedly personal) issue was the endless possibilities of distraction.

Two weeks ago, I bought the Boox Max 2 and I really, really like it. It's a very focused device, and although I didn't think I would use the note-taking that much, I actually ended up using it a lot. Sure, it's expensive but still cheaper than any iPad Pro, and much more suitable for me.

Don't get me wrong: iPads are great devices, but I do appreciate the focus of the Max 2. And even the monitor function comes in useful for reading long texts.
