Been trying to find a good tablet for productivity and recreation. Something that can be used for programming (Not web), and something that can play DRM content.

Ideally, something under $1000.

I’ve already looked at the Librem 11 and am considering it, but I want to know other (ideally, cheaper) options available.

    I thought about buying a Starlite by Starlabs. It looked pretty cool, but I just don’t need a tablet.

      I daily drive a Starlite 3 (the older version is a laptop) and am happy with it. Once thought about buying the Starlite 5 (the new convertible tablet) when the keyboard on mine was broken, but then gave up the idea because of how repairable the laptop version is. End up I just bought a replacement keyboard.

      It is great if you need a touch screen and don’t have concern about repairing. But if it is just for occasional use, I may go with the Pinetab instead. Never tried one but I guess it will be more fun.
