Huawei MatePad Paper – eInk Tablet

I have an old iPad Air that I don’t link to my main Apple ID. It has no apps except for the minimum needed to function as an ebook reader and scratchpad.

It’s pretty distraction free. I would say if you’re willing to run your tablet under its potential it’s possible to have a quiet device.

I ordered a Remarkable 2 but canceled once I realized I had an old iPad lying around. It works for me.

Thats really what matters.

I will say one big thing for me is the light and flashing and stuff. Humans are naturally evolved to be attracted to quick moving and bright things. Bright electronic screens totally hit that, and for me any sort of screen in my periphery completely distracts me. So a device without a light makes a big difference.
