OneNote on the iPad Pro is great, just go for it. Make sure to get the matte screen protector for the tablet for additional pen-to-surface friction.

- angleofrepose 7y agoI think I'll give that a shot. I'm just greatly disappointed with OneNote's organizational features. In that they don't exist. I have notebooks > sections > pages but nothing within pages. No portals, no tools in place (leaving a pen or two in the canvas where I'm switching often). In portrait mode it takes me 3 taps to get from highlighter to pen when I'm reading papers. The PDF import as a stack is almost useless for anything larger than 30 pages. I could go on for a while. I want to try a formal design application and maybe I can make use of layers to save on the "miles" of scrolling I do in OneNote.
- ss3000 7y agoI have both a Surface Go and an iPad Pro, and while using the pen on the iPad Pro on its own offers a satisfactory experience, I find that it's not nearly as good as the Surface Go when it comes to accurately recognizing the correct input method when quickly switching between pen and touch inputs. My iPad Pro very often would treat my finger as a stylus and start drawing when I meant to use my fingers to scroll around, while on my Surface Go I honestly can't even recall that happening even once, and it's a night and day difference in terms of ergonomics for me. I think Microsoft's much longer experience in handling hybrid pen & touch input in OneNote for Windows still gives it an edge at the moment.
- DenisM 7y agoThat literally never happened to me, not even once. I vaguely recall there’s a setting in one note to never accept touch as pen input, so all touches are navigation and all pencil input is drawing. Give it a try?
