Which tablet?

Which tablet are y'all currently using for sheet music? Which tablet do you see others using?
Second question...Can I write it off as a business expense?

Apple iPads. I looked and I could not find another decent high-resolution ("retina" or better) tablet outside of Apple, Inc.'s offerings. :man-shrugging:
With sheet music, not only you want high resolution, you also want fast response time -- you don't want a tablet that's "slow" to render the next page after you do whatever you do to "turn page."

Depends on your business and what you use the tablet for. Consult the IRS or your tax CPA.

I've tried using the regular 11" iPad, but it's too small to be useful, so I end up resorting to paper. This is for single stave saxophone music - for piano it would be even less useful

The 12.9" iPad against a printed sheet.
That's really nice. Now I'm tempted to save up for one.
I've tried using a laptop, and they're just too cumbersome.
Of course, I rarely read that much music so it's a complete waste of money for me, but this has never stopped me before....

I don't use the iPad for sheet music, but I have looked into doing it.
The reason I was looking is that I wanted something that could give me the LARGE PRINT version for old men.
Some features you might want to consider
- Scan in sheet music and be able to interpret it
- Make the font and notes bigger (for old eyes)
- Transpose the key
- Output pdf
- Print sheet music with the adjusted font
- Convert sheet music to MIDI and vice versa
- Zoom in and out the sheet music
Just some things to consider.
