The Best Tablets for Taking Notes for School and Work, From AI-Powered Productivity Machines to Distraction-Free Screens
If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, The Hollywood Reporter may receive an affiliate commission.
While shorthand and cursive are handy skills when it comes to hastily jotting ideas, there’s no denying that technology can offer the best of both digital and analog worlds when it comes to note-taking. More than just a glorified smartphone, some of the best tablets for taking notes are now powered with artificial intelligence for expanding productivity, from automatically correcting grammar and spelling to organizing and summarizing content.
More from The Hollywood Reporter
When paired with a stylus, you can quickly write things down, keep everything organized on a hard drive or the cloud, and search through everything later — which is why they’re perfect for high schoolers, college students, professionals and digital nomads. Cameras allow you to quickly snap photos of presentation boards, while AI-powered apps can convert handwriting to searchable text.

Debating which note-taking tablet with stylus compatibility is right for you? Consider the following:
Do you need to multi-task? Are you using your tablet for reading, web browsing, checking emails, watching videos and playing games in addition to writing, compiling lists or drawing?
How much storage do you need? If you want to multi-task, we recommend a tablet with at least 4 gigabytes (GB) of memory (RAM) and a minimum 256GB of storage so you can play content, download files and create documents. Many devices also allow you to expand storage with an SD or microSD card, and today’s tech means you’ll also get decent front and back cameras for quickly snapping photos (like that whiteboard before it’s erased) and video calling. You’ll need plenty of storage if you expect to use those lenses for taking pictures and recordings.
Do you need AI? Today’s tablets are equipped with Apple’s Intelligence, Samsung’s Galaxy AI and Microsoft’s CoPilot+, which can automate tasks such as organization, spell check, summarizing and other features that can help save time in the note-taking and data organizing process.
Do you need more security than a passcode? Most devices now have secure authentication such as facial or fingerprint recognition in addition to a standard passcode, so your notes, files, email and other content stay safe if you ever lose your device. Seamless cloud backup is also important for the same reason.

If you’re looking for a top-of-the-line device that can handle note-taking and then some, Apple’s M4 chip-equipped 2024 iPad Pro is the company’s fastest, most powerful tablet to date. It’s ideal for busy college students, professionals, on-the-go video editors and anyone else who wants an exceptional and portable experience for taking notes, gaming, video editing and watching content, all in one device. And Apple recently introduced its powerful Intelligence AI that can help improve your writing, summarize meetings, transcribe audio recordings, generate custom photos and videos and more. OpenAI’s ChatGPT is also integrated into the Writing Tools feature.
The tech giant’s built-in Notes app can recognize and index your handwriting, making it easier to search what you’ve jotted down. What’s great is you can also tap on your iPad’s lock screen with the Pencil to start taking notes without unlocking the device, and you can save it all on iCloud for seamless access across all of your Apple devices.
The 13-inch iPad Pro features 6E connectivity and a vibrant Liquid Retina display with XDR for color-faithful viewing, while 12MP cameras and a LiDAR scanner (which can “mesh” objects and spaces) let you take visual notes or stunning HDR photos alike. The device’s True Tone (which adapts to your lighting), adaptive ProMotion refresh rate and next-level contrast ratio combine to perform for moviegoers, gamers, graphic designers and video editors.
When paired with the second-generation Apple Pencil (on sale for $80), Magic Keyboard (on sale for $329) or Smart Keyboard Folio (on sale for $145), the seventh-gen iPad Pro is one of the best large-screen tablets for taking notes without any lag.

BEST FOR AMAZON ALEXA USERS
Amazon Fire Max 11 Tablet
If you’re fully immersed in Amazon’s Alexa-powered world, then the e-comm giant’s newest Fire Max 11 tablet is one of the best budget note-taking tablets. Available with or without lock screen ads, and in a Microsoft 365 productivity bundle the new model is now compatible with Amazon’s stylus and Bluetooth keyboard case.
We love that this lightweight tablet is just over one pound and has a fingerprint ID for added security (Amazon’s Fire HD 10 only supports passcode security) and that the stylus snaps magnetically onto the side for convenient storage. The keyboard has 15 pre-programmed shortcut keys (including two customizable ones) for using the split-screen feature and opening programs, plus trackpad gestures for quick navigation. The battery life also gets a major upgrade and promises up to 14 hours of gaming, listening to music or Audible books, browsing the web, reading, watching Twitch streams and more.
If you plan on using this for watching movies and taking video calls, you’ll appreciate the value in this 11-inch tablet. It has a 1080p full HD display and upgraded 8MP front and rear cameras (the previous model only had 5MP and 2MP cameras.
The Fire Max 11 can be fully charged in as little as 3.5 hours with a 15-watt adapter and USB-C cable. We also like the option to add a microSD card and expand storage up to 1TB.

Released in October 2024, Apple’s seventh-gen iPad Mini is a tiny but mighty and portable note-taking machine, thanks to the A17 Pro chip that supports the tech giant’s new Intelligence AI platform. Compatible with Apple Pencil Pro, the 8.3-inch tablet weighs just over 10 ounces and is capable of all of the wonders of Apple’s other AI-powered tablets — making it the most lightweight (and travel-friendly) screen on our list.
It’s compatible with the second-gen Apple Pencil, has an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display and has a battery that lasts up to 10 hours. Like the rest of Apple’s devices with the M2 or A17 Pro chip and iOS 18 or higher, expect all of the same Intelligence upgrades to the Notes, Mail and Pages apps (as well as third-party apps) with Writing Tool’s features (such as summarizing, rewriting and proofreading), Image Playground and Image Wand (for creating original photos) and integrated ChatGPT. The USB-C port also delivers faster data transfer.
Casual gamers, artists and photo/video editors will find the new iPad Mini great for on-the-go entertainment and productivity, but don’t expect it to replace, say, a Snapdragon-equipped laptop. Like its predecessor, the Liquid Retina screen still delivers vibrant images and video with 500 nits of brightness, while the TrueTone adaptive display adjusts to your environment’s lighting.
