>I type a few essays for school every blue moon, but that's about it.

Do not underestimate the convenience of having two windows open at the same time. Yes, you can switch between Safari and Pages/Word/whatever with a swipe, but it gets old quick.

Also: you're going to want a real keyboard to type an essay. You do not want to do it with the onscreen keyboard. Period. If you're not doing a lot of typing all over the place (library, notes in class, etc), then I guess that means you don't have to get a tiny keyboard, which is good news for typing comfort.

I'd suggest either the Universal Mobile Keyboard from Microsoft (no joke) or the K480 by Logitech. Both of them are nice to type on while still small enough to fit in most bags.

Same price on Amazon

I have this keyboard:

https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Keyboard-K480/dp/B00MUTWLW4

It has a dial on the side that let's you switch between 3 devices. I currently have it synced to my PC, PS4 and Android tablet.

Oh I got this one! I play WoW (pvp, raiding, ect) and some other light games. Overall it works great!

Here's my setup:

Mouse - Logitech MX Master 2s: https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Cross-Computer-Control-Graphite/dp/B072RCDN7T/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=logitech+mouse+mx+master+2s&qid=1572889826&sprefix=logitech+mouse+mx&sr=8-4

USBC to HDMI with an HDMI cord. This allows the phone to be played on the tv utilizing Samsung DeX.

Have you considered the Logitech K480, it's priced under $30, can be synced to 2 additional devices and has a built in tray that should allow you to hold the Fire 10 in a viewable angle while typing with decent sized keys logitech k480 wireless keyboard

Oh, and I personally have set up one of the three settings with the Fire HD 8, and tested it with the Fire HD 7 so I can say with 99.9% confidence that it will work with the 10 as well

I use this USB wired one on my Dell 3010 Chromebox. Works great. Contols screen brightness, volume, and other specialized Chrome OS functions. $19.95

When I want a wireless keyboard, I use a Bluetooth Multi-Device Keyboard K480 by Logitech

http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/multi-device-keyboard-k480


https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Computers-Smartphones-920-006342/dp/B00MUTWLW4

The Logitech bluetooh keyboard also works great on my Lenovo android tablet.

I would highly recommend a keyboard case or a keyboard with a tray/stand for tablets. My sister has an 8" tablet (weaker CPU than this but has the same RAM and 64 GB storage and Wacom) that she uses with this keyboard.

One that I've seen recommended a lot is the Logitech K480. It's a bit bigger than your tablet but you'll be doing your fingers a favor by going with a bigger keyboard.

The iPad pro allows you to connect to an external display, has a higher resolution and is more responsive, but if you want to use a tablet as an EFB, then you really don't need those things. An iPad Pro is perfect for anyone that needs a laptop replacement or a dedicated creative content device, but an EFB shouldn't need too much power.
If you need to do any typing you can use the on screen keyboard or one of these 2 keyboards. And If you're okay with Android, the Samsung tab A and S5E would serve similar functions (assuming software compatibility and company policy doesn't restrict device brands) while being a little cheaper $200 and $400 respectively (depending on where you get them) as well as the S5e supporting external monitors and Dex mode (which essentially turns your tablet into a laptop in terms of software looks).

TLDR: It depends on your company and monetary restrictions, but I'd go for the iPad Air for something so straightforward

you're welcome

The official google tablets would get it for sure. Multi windows work best on samsung tablets.

if you use cynogen mod for marshmallow, there is a functioning multi window feature if you edit build.prop

Alternatively why not type laptop in amazon and filter by the one shipping in your country? You can manually install dual boot android, or android running in windows if you really need the android function.

Whether a chromebook gets android app support should not be your main deciding factor because not all apps will work. If you really need android, you can go the tablet route. In the end, you need to know what your needs are.

For me, I used a samsung tablet+ logitech k480 keyboard it is very convenient to take down notes in android as I can quickly screenshot and crop powerpoint slides and paste inside notes. This is how neat it turns out I do have a toshiba chromebook 2 but I cant do up notes as fast as on an android tablet. handwriting is useful too

Okay not exactly a laptop, but I swear by combining this bluetooth keyboard with this carrying case with whatever cheap/used tablet you can find. It's a lightweight combo that I can keep at my desk at work for on-the-go writing. I have the tablet connected to google docs and viola! The perfect writing buddy for $100-200. It was even less for me since I got a cracked screen tablet hand-me-down from a friend who was going to toss it anyway.

Try this one - I have it and I love it. The big round button on the left allows you to switch between three devices, so I use the same keyboard for my laptop, iPhone and iPad

I use this for a keyboard, doesn't have a mouse though: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00MUTWLW4/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1499972767&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=logitech+tablet+keyboard

What's with the mechanical keyboard suggestions in this thread? What are the advantages of mechanical keyboard?

They do not seem to have wireless or backlit options.

You could get [K380](
http://www.amazon.in/gp/aw/d/B0148NPH9I/ref=mp_s_a_1_26?ie=UTF8&qid=1475211843&sr=8-26&pi=AC_SX118_SY170_QL70&keywords=Logitech&dpPl=1&dpID=41k8vshfTRL&ref=plSrch)

Or K480. These have Bluetooth and can connect to multiple devices at the same time

I've had this little rechargeable keyboard for several months with no issue: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VRCKK1Y/ But it's main draw for me is that it's portable and folds up. Folding is probably a drawback if you don't actually want that feature.

Then I have this thing which does take AAA batteries, but it's not mini: tps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MUTWLW4/
I really like it, though. Can simultaneously pair with my phone, MiBox, and tablet just by rotating the little switch. But not really remote-sized if that's what you're going for.

I use a Samsung Tab S2 with a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard. Works great for my needs.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MUTWLW4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Zu4RAb4K0MP9E

I use this with an iPhone 7. Should work with a newer android device. Comfortable if you're used to a laptop style keyboard. Easy to throw in a bag. (I wouldn't describe it as "pocketable" though)



https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Keyboard-K480-Black/dp/B00MUTWLW4

Its a bit tedious but it lets me do a bunch of little projects at once.

I use this one https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Smartphones-920-006342/dp/B00MUTWLW4

If you're looking for a keyboard and you don't want to pay for the folio cover, this is a cheaper option. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Smartphones-920-006342/dp/B00MUTWLW4/ref=sr_1_58?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1420863184&sr=1-58

I like that it has the slot to prop up the tablet, and you can use it with 2 other Bluetooth devices. I have a Nexus6, and it's cool to use this keyboard with the phone as well as with my tablet.

Short answer: No.

Long answer: Maybe if you don't mind the iPad leaning further back because it's a few 0.something mm thinner.

Don't get a keyboard case. Get a dedicated slim keyboard that can pack away with a smart cover. You can get them combined for around $50 on Amazon if you search. All the first party accessories bet on the idea that people will spend a lot more than they should because the Apple brand is connected with the ideas of premium and high-end devices.

I would recommend [Anker's T320 slim keyboard] (http://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Ultra-Slim-Aluminum-Keyboard-Windows/dp/B00BKW2410) with any of the slim cover cases on Amazon.

You'll pay more for more features. An example would be the Logitech K480 keyboard that allows you to connect with three devices simultaneously (phone, iPad and laptop).

The note4 is expensive, but very feature packed and worth it for many people (like me).

The screen is rather awesome, so if you take a bluetooth keyboard with you (folding), you should be able to type away.

Using the stylus is like writing with a pen, but it is short/lightweight, so if you end up doing more than a new quick notes, you'll want something a bit larger like what Bamboo makes.

I use the logitech k480. I like that it’s bigger, easier on my wrists. I also got the hermit shell keyboard case where I can it my iPad and my pencil in there.

So far I really like it. I’m a student too, I use it for taking notes in my reading as well as lecture notes.

https://www.amazon.ca/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Smartphones-920-006342/dp/B00MUTWLW4?th=1&psc=1&source=googleshopping&locale=en-CA&tag=googcana-20&ref=pd_sl_41qjdzvkn9_e

The harmony smart keyboard or the mini controller? The smart keyboard is like a standard keyboard with a built in touchpad on the right side. And the mini controller is like a game pad size keyboard. I dont have the harmony hub at all, so would I be able to still use it?
The big thing for me is being able to switch easily from device to device, with either a switch or a button. Also, a smaller form factor would be nice.
The Logitech Multi-Device keyboards are nice because they have that device switching capabilities. Its the K480 and K780 bluetooth keyboards.

K480

K780
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZAK8MM/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_6rZgzbFR8AN6D

Yes with a nice keyboard. I prefer this one

This device is listed on Amazon now...

http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Smartphones-920-006342/dp/B00MUTWLW4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1410915778&sr=8-1&keywords=logitech+k480

But it says the shipping time is 2 to 5 weeks...that seems odd to me

------------

This large ass post, what did I learn?

• But before that, I wanted to go back in my life, and explore why I am the way I am. 11 weeks ago I wrote this topic to explore just that.
  
  
• I had read a Psychology book 2 years ago (since I always wanted to learn it), called "Psychology in plain English". I learned enough Psychology there basically, everything I ever wanted to know. Proceeded not to look at anything psychology related for 2 whole years to today.
  
  
• I decided, to finally accept my closeted gaming experiences and merge it in this post with my real life experiences. I thought, what the fuck, why not do a scientific study while I'm at it? So I basically diagnosed my own issues like a shrink would, at least I think I did, found out where all my problems were, found out that I'm a sociopath, found out lots of things.
  
  
• So I decided to write a theory on everything I learned. Because why the fuck not? There's been no studies like this or anyone like me remotely in terms of similar experiences, so I figured i'd do something pseudo-science-y and make up my own theories about thinking. Like I read these self-help books like "7 habits of highly effective people" or "Choose yourself!", but I wanted to write my own but really, all they do is use ancedotes for everything. I haven't read a self-help book that was entirely an autobiography that also happened to be a bestseller on amazon.
  
  
• So I made my theory up.
  
  ------------------
  

  TL;DR short sweet version of theory
  

  
  

• I went and explored how Newton invented physics back in the day, I went and explored the birth of science and history from cavemen times, the birth of linguistics, what twitter hashtags and evernote hashtags were related to that. And how my merging of two identities - my gaming pseudonym daphoenix, and my real life self, and the effects of it (no self-studies have been done here). I ended up writing a whole theory behind just that. I called it "Physical memory tag" or PMT for short, which essentially is how you associate objects in real life with your 5 senses. I called the other thing, your random inner voice thought process, as "Virtual Memory Tag" or VMT for short
  
  
• To prove my theory, I took extreme examples in history, such as serial rapist, terrorists, feral humans, animal behavior, darwinism, social LBGT issues today, suicide bridge examples and testimonies, psychological studies, some studies on similar studies that align to mine from merging a gaming identity to real-self, how hypnosis works, explored how I got smarter over time despite being stupid as shit in 2nd grade, and then analyzed how my idea rates changed over time, with writing this post. Analyzed some of my dreams while I was at it. Basically, that's how I validated my theory-ish to some degree
  
  
• Here's the results of all of that. http://imgur.com/hYvZCnv (there's more though). Its not easily understandable since I used lots of jargon. Basically, what I did was I think? reinvent psychology in my own terminology. Possibly. I think I may have made some psychological discoveries along the way. Dunno. Need to peer-review it though. I might publish a dissertation on this for fun though, granted I've never taken a neuroscience or psychology course, so I really don't know how right or wrong I am. Plus I'd need to do a statistical P<0.05 value correlation with a large enough sampling to prove my theories. Its not something I really care too much about, I mostly wrote my theories so I can understand myself better, and apply it towards learning. Which I do, mostly by having 5 reddit accounts in this thing I called MIND STATES. More on that later, it'd take awhile to explain
  
  --------------------
  

  TL:DR of post
  

  
  

• Yap, so that's the story of my life. Sorry for the overkill statement, I hadn't condensed it into readable form yet and decided to do it with this post
  
  > I use the surface pro and it really is probably the best for ON. But I've also used a Samsung tablet with S pen that worked pretty well. It just had syncing issues constantly. So I broke it in a rage and saved up and got a surface.
  
  
• Forgot to answer your question, But yeah the reason syncing happens is because on Samsung Tablet, its an app version, not a full version (Surface is a full version app). Syncing happens usually when you connect to wifi, at least that's how I remembered it worked. If you had a onenote App (say on your tablet), and a computer open at the same time, and wrote notes on both, syncing is really slow. I manually sync my work PC to my home PC
  
  
• But, not everyone can afford a $300 to $2100 dollar machine, plus its risky carrying that around in your backpack. Might get stolen. Which is why in class, I'd still take notes via paper and pen. OR better yet, you could do this http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Smartphones-920-006342/dp/B00MUTWLW4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00 + your smartphone. I've taken notes this way its actually pretty effective, cost $30, your still typing too but just using simple note formats. Don't even need a tablet. If you need to draw a diagram, use pen+paper, reference it in the notes, scan it later into there (1. just take your phone, 2. take a picture, 3. email yourself, 4. go home on PC see email, 5. +SHAREX screenshot, go to note, put link, your done). You can even filter your emails out you send to yourself. Its extremely fast and effective, and it backs it all up on your PC at the same time AND by email, plus you get great notes, don't have to carry a heavy expensive laptop around, and its very LEAN in nature (just carry a bluetooth keyboard that's all! and maybe a backup 3000 mAH battery to charge your phone). All together, those 5 steps take awhile to load up, but it takes less than 30 seconds overall to do the entire process, even less if your doing multiple photos / scanned docs
  
  
• ^ At least, that's what experience tells me is the fastest overall and most useful reliable way of taking notes are. You could use a tablet too, like a cheap $99 one here too
  
  ---------~~
  
  After school - Work -Haven't really succeeded in my work projects partially because I got lazy as hell by writing this post for 3 months instead, because this was a once-in-a-lifetime-breakthrough-thought process that wasn't going to happen again. Also, partly in the fact that no one really wants to invest in anything, so I decided I'd invest purely in myself instead. So I wrote this long post. I feel like I would've had some really deep regrets though if I didn't write this 600,000 -800,000 word post, its why growing up I felt "Deja-Vu" a lot, I just really wish I took better notes
  
  
  Iwish I changed majors and took an extra 3 years of schooling. It made me really sad. I clung to my old ways for the first
  
  
  I kind of regretted never starting a youtube channel, so in Guild Wars 2 (another really big MMO game), I decided
  
  Actually honestly I never gave a flying fuck about my GPA, it just so happens that I could regurgitate information really well but not apply it. I did a lot of research in school (3 years) and learned that I really hate research. I simply cannot sit in one place spending like a hundred hours doing one sample preparation, it bores me shitless, because I could've done XYZ in those timeframes
  
  
  
  Junior -> Senior year university, I had 3 internships accept me (I only really applied to 10, writing applications took forever and I got lazy), I took one with the Nuclear Regulatory commission(NRC), but
  
  I felt like I didn't have any guidance my entire life and just picked a major that seemed to interest me, but I grew to really hate it senior year university.
  
  I had a lot of social stigma issues in senior year university
  
  I didn't pick the major I really wanted,

Ordered BOSE QC25 , 24MP88HV LG Monitor and Logitech BT Keybooard for a total price of Rs.25496.


Did I spend too much this season?

Edit : Also planning to buy a Google Home from FK which is selling at 7k
