Hey everyone, I am currently in the market for a tablet. My requirements are that it has pen support(either proprietary or usi I don't care), an unlockable bootloader, and a fairly powerful snapdragon processor (preferably 8 gen 3 or 8 elite or something). I would like it to be around 10 inches closer to 9 would be better. I don't know if that's possible though. If anyone has any ideas then that would be extremely helpful.

Edit: I forgot to say what I would use it for lol. I would mainly be using it for note taking since I'm in college but I might also do some switch or PC emulation on it as well.

I would love to go for a Samsung tablet but my only isssue is the locked bootloader. Which I wouldn't care about if I liked the android skin but for some reason I just can't get behind anything other than aosp or aosp adjacent. Also with the upcoming restrictions on side loading I am thinking rooting is going to be a necessity.

Edit: sorry for the multiple replies jerboa decided to make duplicates

FWIW I didn't bother unlocking the S9, I just use Shizuku when apps need elevated permission to do things and it's worked out fairly well so far. I don't have to play the cat and mouse integrity spoofing game anymore or wrangle manually flashing updates with a laptop so that's nice. Totally up to you what you're going for, I don't need lsposed for anything critical right now so elevated perms is enough for my purposes.
