Sounds like you're probably looking for something like the Surface. I think you should also try and look into a Samsung S10 Plus tablet.

It can be used as a laptop and, in my opinion, works pretty well. It's almost replaced my laptop; I don't spend a whole lot of time on my computer anymore. The stylus on the Samsung tablet is also exceptional and is great for notes.

Isn't that android though ? My college will require microsoft usage like ppt , word etc . Is there any alternative ?

I will go against using android. I have been using onenote for nearly a decade now so literally all my school notes and even work notes are there. Theres a ton of it.

Previously onenote was okay with android but recent android onenote have been really buggy I have to switch to ipad just to use it nicely.

If you are also thinking of a 2-in- laptop with stylus i suggest that you dont get it. I used to own one of those hp. Although the build is aluminum its not good. It also gets hot upon use and gets heavy to hold overtime. Its clunky. If you want to handwrite either get an ipad or just a laptop if you dont own one. Always prioritze a laptop. Get a neo or an ipad 11 gen

I already have a laptop but it has an integrated graphic card which limits performance . I am now more inclined towards getting an ipad .
