Tablet, laptop or oldschool for study?

I'm starting to study electrical engineering and information technology at the FH in October. My cousin recommended a ThinkPad for that, but my brother said he could do much better in his studies. I find laptops too bulky, but you can still persuade me. You can just vote and best still write down which tablet, for example. You would recommend me. Budget would be up to 400 euro, less is of course always better.

I have to say especially when I have to read a lot I still do that on paper. Somehow you are used to it. Take a look at the paper and leaf around.

Of course, you can also work similar with tablets now but something is there that it does not feel real.

So I would probably always have a block and pen with it. Whereby I assume that today you get a lot of material also digital why a notebook would make sense for me to complete. Notebook because I think that you also want to write a lot and I prefer the solid combination of screen with keyboard before.

Although that works with tablets but the z.b. With attached keyboard on the legs or something similar is probably much harder.

So block / pen + 13 "notebook would probably be my choice. Possibly something like a Lenovo Yoga which for you that can fold quite well in case of need.

I think nothing of tablet, that brings no value.

A laptop is good if you want to program or when it comes to writing longer texts (Correct, Print, Share).

Nothing is better than pen and paper when it comes to writing. Since the Prof sketch throws on the wall, tells what, scribbles just NEN note to something from the last hour… This is too complicated to do the same incidentally on the PC to whom you should listen at the same time and record / sign and everything belongs to a file.

I handled that with taking pictures. Then you can listen to 100% instead of signing off. Take a quick photo, write to the computer via Bluetooth and a summary.

At that time, I wrote "oldschool" and then worked everything out on the PC at home, or put it in a decent shape.

This had the nice effect of having repeated and consolidated the written text.

You can also write directly on a tablet or notebook, but remember that you have to be able to type that quickly. Otherwise you'll miss half.

I would only take tablet if you have a separate keyboard and this is then also halfway practical. I keep typing on the tablet, because the tas are too small.

I had a NEN Prof who has jumped on her continuous film back and forth and then has a drawing on the blackboard slapped that then somewhere in between heard. If you did not write accordingly, you lost. With pictures there would have been nothing.

And a Prof who was already annoyed when the pen fell to the ground. The cell phone would have been expelled from the room.

Since the Prof must play along.
