I have one that I use for my grad school studies almost exclusively as an e-reader for textbooks and a notepad. I could similarly just invest in a cheap e-reader device and a physical notepad and it wouldn’t disrupt my studies but I shelled out a little more for a used iPad for the longer than typical device support and because I’m already in the Apple ecosystem.
