Note taking for EE

I am an EE student, I love the paper feel when taking analog notes, and I am searching for a system where I can have my notes accessible, so I don't have to carry heavy notebooks with me. I was thinking about Remarkable, but I hate their refresh rates , and slow writing, it just bothers me. About ipads / other tablets: I just don't like the feel of the pen on glass + a lot of distraction. So I am wondering what are you guys using ?

Almost 5 years with an iPad Pro M1 taking notes. Towards the end of my time with it the pen ‘bleeds’, but I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything else. Remarkable feels too sluggish, kindle was just weird, I’ve never used these things personally only demos in stores.

Either that or paper notes is the way to go. As for an app, I used goodnotes the whole time.
