I have Apple iPad (Wi-Fi, 128GB)
Space Gray (Latest Model)

9.7-inch Retina display
A10 Fusion chip
Touch ID fingerprint sensor
8MP back camera and 1.2MP FaceTime HD front camera
Two speaker audio
802.11ac Wi-Fi
Up to 10 hours of battery life
Lightning connector for charging and accessories
iOS 12 with Group FaceTime, shared augmented reality experiences, Screen Time, and more.

I chose it as iPad has so many great ios Apps for musicians to use
vs Android, my favorite for backing tracks with scroll lyrics is
STAGE TRAXX
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/stage-traxx/id504184444
and now just for lyrics when playing my KB MY LYRIC BOOK
check it out you cant go wrong....good luck..

Donny, OnSong can transpose, change fonts size and color, change spacing between lines, make chords a different color than the lyric, auto scroll down the lyrics, as you are reading the page, Make set lists. Swipe down for alike songs. Swipe to the right or left for a different type of music. And there is more.

The price of the App. Is cheaper for iPad. (apple) Turn the iPad in landscape view and the lyrics become 30% larger.

PS, it can also display PDF files, lyrics or sheet music, which I use when needed

90% after all these years I do have them memorized, and the music also, .... But you always need backup and you always have that one song you haven't done in a long while or off the wall requests..

I can't imagine that a tablet would work as well as a laptop, as far as reading and organizing text files. Possibly a smaller footprint...
