    Hello everyone,
    I am looking for a new device, on a budget since I am a student and I would be more then happy to get some recommendations from people that are more knowledgeable then me!
    What I'll be needing the laptop/tablet for is:
    -Browsing through the internet
    -writing papers
    -watching movies online
    -uploading/downloading recordings.
    Since I'm a musician I asked myself if a tablet would be a nice option to digitalise my music so I don't have to print and carry around all the paper but I'd still need to be able to write into the music on the tablet.
    Another thought was to have an extra harddrive where I can store all my stuff so I would have a rather 'empty' computer if I'm not working on a paper.
    Thank you already very much for your ideas !:)

    It depends on your budget. How much are you willing to spend on your system and are there any particular hardware configuration that you want included in the system?

    I'd say around 500€+/- hoping to keep it for many years.
    I'd like for it to have a keyboard (also removable would be an option), USB port, don't necessarily need a mouse or a CD drive. If that is what you meant..

    If you want a 2 in 1 laptop (one whoch have a removable keyboard), you could get the Lenovo Flex 14 with the Ryzen 5 4500U processor, it's slightly above 500€ but it should be a powerhouse.
    I also think that they include a pen in their packaging. The only problem is that during the pandemic, the price of the machine has been fluctuating.

    Thanks Jared! Then maybe I'll wait for next year to buy it, hoping the prices will drop again..

    You can always try getting it second hand.
