Currently looking at a DIY AMD 7640U, 1x16GB RAM, 250GB storage, 1 USB-C, 2 USB-A, 1 HDMI.

My use case will mostly entail note taking in class. I’ve got a built PC at home.

But I’m not a hardware guy, would I be better served w/ different CPU or RAM set up in your opinions? I’ve mostly picked bottom tier specs but is there anything in your opinions that is worth splurging on, all things considered?

      A tablet doesn’t cover all use cases for college work, but I suppose with the push for cloud computer instances this could actually work.

          A table is typically an ARM based platform, so using MS products like visual studio can be a challenge, but there are web versions that help.

          I think video encoding isn’t too polished on tablets as it is on a Linux/Windows PC .

          I don’t know all the use cases where a table doesn’t work, but they do exist.
