Recommendations re writing tablets e.g. reMarkable (aussie.zone)

I want to get back into creative writing, and for work I prefer to take handwritten notes (I have my own weird shorthand and it helps with retention). I'd also like the ability to write at night and not disturb my partner.

I don't want to go near iOS and the tablet would be primarily used for writing purposes.

Any recommendations or 'what to avoid's?

Sorry if wrong community, I couldn't find another relevant

I’ve got a Boox note device, which has a backlight and runs a version of Android. The good and bad of that is you can run many Android apps - I use my local library’s app for reading with a backlight and in a pinch you can browse the web on Firefox android etc
