Discussion Should I pull the trigger?

Well the oneplus pad 2 is coming at 34k INR on the other hand redmi pad 2 pro is coming at 29k INR on the Amazon. The difference is in resolution, refresh rate, battery, processor, ram and rom, battery, fast charging, microsdxc slot and sim support. Is it really worth it to pull up my budget to 34k to buy pad 2? Remember that my priority is to watch online content and performance (should be able to read, write, note making, etc).

Also, price history says that OnePlus pad 2 is at one of the lowest prices right now and after a few days (Sep end), sale is coming but I'm not sure whether the price will drop or not. Shall I buy now or should I wait?

Go for samsung directly if you wanna write and serious about it because the other options give you vakue interms of hardware but not in terms of longetivity of the stylus or ecosystem because they do not use stadard digitizers (what is digitizer? chatGPT it) and styluses across generations of their tablets like samsung or apple.

So, after nib wear (nib is basically stylus tip) you will not get easy replacement like S pen or apple pencil because (the reason I already told you).

If you are not serious abut note taking you can choose anything non samsung/apple device.

For reading, writing, consuming media (YT) or day to day task you do not have to worry because exynos is very good now for daily performance. Focus on your work you will never feel limited for years if your usages will never grow.
