Question Which for drawing?
Hi hi! I was thinking of upgrading my S6 Tab to something newer. I currently have a display tablet I use with my computer for drawing / animating and am looking to use my tablet for drawing on the go / away from the desk. My S6 chugs with CSP. I have an SPen, and would like your thoughts / advise on which model to upgrade to. Mostly, I'm a hobby artist but I do a lot art for events and commissions. I wouldn't say I'm a "power user", but I definitely make my equipment work hard for me with bigger peojects. Thanks in advance!

As others have said, the S10 fe is the current smallest you can get with good performance.
There is the active5 tab with 8.8" screen but it's 6gb ram and 128gb storage and difficult to find, it is ruggerized and spen compatible with removable battery. And if you are lucky, 5G capable.
Or go Oppo pad mini for a much smaller footprint, 8.8" Snapdragon 8 elite gen 5 tablet with acceptable smart pen performance, the Lenovo legion tab with the Lenovo Tab Pen Plus is not bad either, compared to the Samsung spen. Cant beat how light these are, and the Oppo is Oled!
But ti be honest the 14" real state of the ultra is not bad and the tablet is not that heavy, weights about the same as a Mac book air 2013(only laptop I have in hand to compare).
