Looking for a tablet for taking notes in engineering and deeper math classes.

I always used paper or typing (shoutout notesnook), but I want to have a big digital handwritten journal to look back at and reference.

Or if anyone is familiar with custom ROMs for android and know a good and easy to flash tablet.

I already have a thinkpad x1 carbon laptop for everything else.

Tablet will be separate for reading, home assistant, taking notes with Saber and watching entertainment.

Again, looking for a decently easy Linux tablet or de-googleable tablet with an advanced stylus.

And I'd prefer not supportting Microsoft or Google of course. And budget strictly under $200 l.

Thanks!

I have a minisforum v3 running Linux and it's great. Only missing features are windows hello, and using the fingertips scanner for more than unlocking.

I also have a framework 13 which is not the touch 12, but having both I can say for sure that both have great quality but the minisfourm has shockingly good performance which I don't think the 12 will have.

    You can use windows hello in linux, its called "howdy" even works with sudo in terminal. Check this out: https://github.com/mudkipme/awesome-minisforum-v3?tab=readme-ov-file#faical-recognition

    I tried, did not get it working, decided since it cant unlock after boot anyway it was probably not worth it.
