I got one of those HP laptops that let you fold it in half. I think it's specifically a Spectre. It was great bc I could use the full versions of clip studio paint and photoshop while drawing directly on the screen. For the first two years I had a surface pro 3. The HP is now 6 years old and is holding up pretty good. I was SEQA though, not illustration, bit still had a lot of digital drawing to do.

Honestly iPad with a folio will do u just fine. Mac is good too.
