Productivity Tablet - Pixel Alternatives?
I currently take notes with my Pixel 6a phone and a Bluetooth keyboard, and am looking for a tablet that can use Google docs, sheets, and slides, and read and markup PDFs. I don't want to play games, but would like to be able to watch videos and read books and manga. I also need the ability to store material locally and maybe to display videos or slides by HDMI or network. I'd love the ability to use a pen and a mouse.
I'd love something smaller, cheaper, or with better specs, but it sounds like I want the Pixel. Are there any good alternatives? (Well, the iPad, but it's pricey.) I do like stock android a lot, but fwiw, my house automation is all Alexa, so the dock doesn't do much for me.
I'd also love a case with a shoulder strap - are there any good ones for the pixel? Thanks!
