I've tried reading scientific PDFs on the side on my ereader, and I wouldn't recommend it unless you 1. get a 10" reader or larger, 2. don't mind shuffling back and forth with organization between this and your computer, and 3. can live with half-assed annotation and note writing for your PDFs on the unit. So my recommendation is either an iPad Air, or get used to transferring PDFs to your ereader and read on that, while annotating on your computer on the side. |

For what it may be worth, one of my great-niblings who is a grad student says that majority of their peers use an iPad for reading and annotating PDFs. There are some using Samsung, Lenovo or other Android tablet but they are less than 10%. Evidently, you can create a shared library with ReadCube to allow cross device syncing and using the same files on multiple devices/multiple users. Their group is mostly Apple device users but one person is using a Onyx Boox 10.3" device.
It was fun over Thanksgiving dinner geeking out over ebooks, ereaders and apps. |

you may need an ipad or an android tablet like samsung galaxy tab.
ipad is better If money isn't an issue. It has more premium app options for note taking, such as Notability and Goodnotes. If Money is an issue, samsung Galaxy Tabs come with the S Pen out of the box, Samsung Notes app is free and easily adequate for 99% of note takers. https://pctechtest.com/ipad-pro-vs-s...y-tab-s9-ultra |
