My daughter just bought a new laptop. HP. It’s one of the 1) works as a laptop w keyboard and 2) works as a touch screen tablet. Pretty cool, though I have a hard time recommending HP other than for printers. 128 GB and under $500.
I use a little Apple iPad Air2 for everything. 32 GB. Close to a 10” screen and a 10 hours rated battery. I have a huge book and music/vid library and close to 1000 photos and it still has 9 GB open. It’s insanely fast, all via touchscreen...love it. It’s WIFI only. But my cell phone (iPhone 10) is a hot spot so I just sign into WIFI if it’s available when out and about or go through the phone and connect via 4G LTE. Bullet proof. Prices go from $150 to $300. Lots of refurbished out there.
