What to Look For
10–11" screens are the sweet spot for portability and usability; 12"+ suits productivity and creative work.
Check stylus compatibility before buying if you plan to draw or take handwritten notes.
128GB is the minimum — many tablets lack expandable storage, so don't underestimate your needs.
iPad leads on app quality and long-term software support; Android tablets offer better file management and value.

iPad vs Android tablet — which is better?
iPad wins on software quality, app ecosystem, and support longevity. Android tablets offer more customisation, better file management, and often better value below €400.
Can a tablet replace a laptop?
For light users who browse, stream, and communicate: yes. For people needing specific software, complex file management, or heavy multitasking: a laptop is still superior.
