Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 vs Xiaomi Pad 7

“About xiaomi pad 7, with focus pen they cost 2-3k lesser than the ipad a16 and s10fe. You have to pay for note taking apps subscription, they are good now in hardware but software wise they are not at ios or oneui level. Also there is the issue with focus pen, xiaomi pad 6 was compatible with a particular pen and now that pen is not available in first hand market. You won't face such issues with samsung and apple as there will always be options available for them. And you only have to get the focus pen for 6k, there is currently no 3rd party options”

“Problem is that for anything that's Exel and stuff Android tablets are out of the window in my opinion I ditched my laptop for a Samsung Tab S7 FE and there are some things that I can't do, which is why I still carry my laptop everywhere. So, you should either look for an iPad or a Windows tablet in my opinion, as Android productivity apps really suck, it's not optimised at all. So maybe the iPad 10 if you wanna keep it affordable? Cause even if I was to recommend an Android tablet they're not that affordable, the OnePlus Pad 2, the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro and the Tab S9 (non FE) series could be great recommendations if it wasn't for the price or the lack of optimisation. But the better all around in those would be the OnePlus Pad 2 I think, especially if you want the keyboard, cause the iPad keyboard costs an arm and a leg.”
