Xiaomi Pad 5 Handwriting & Note Taking

[@matanatalyeva4630]

Hi, great video! I would like to talk about inkredible tho, the thing is for using stylus just go to app settings and enable the "s pen only" mode. This mode will allow you to use the stylus with accurate palm rejection I believe. The button you used was actually for enabling and disabling the zooming in and out process. So even if turned on, app will still recognise your palm. Hope it helps anybody.

[@teohontech7141]

You're right. I'm not familiar with Inkredible. Thanks!

Does flawed palm rejection in pad 5 makes s6 lite better android tablet alternative if I only want tablet for note taking?

[@teohontech7141]

Palm rejection works alright. With apps that have pen-only input or palm rejection feature, you will get perfect palm rejection. I know Tab S6 Lite 2022 has just been released but I've not tested it yet so I can't say how good that is compared to the Xiaomi Pad 5

@@francomurua10 The Tab S7 is the better tablet spec-wise but the Xiaomi Pad 5 isn't that terrible. You can't go wrong with both. Do keep in mind that the Tab S7 is usually more expensive than the Pad 5. To answer your question on why I need the S6 Lite when I have an S7, I mainly use Samsung Notes as my notetaking app and syncing notes is a breeze between tabs is a breeze. I am considering the Pad 5 because I sometimes use Microsoft OneNote but mainly Samsung Notes. Btw, I don't use a Windows laptop right now so when I say that the Tab S7 is my main tablet, it is my main driver at work.
