The Remarkable has been a game changer for me (also in academia).
It has no distractions (no mail, messaging, internet, notifications), I can edit stuff with a decently comfortable pen, and it syncs over wifi so I have my notes always with me on my phone if needed. Also the screen is large enough that I read A4 PDFs without zoom or reflow.
