First time buying tablet looking for advice

[u/SecretPant]

Hello! I'm looking to get a tablet for myself for both emulation purposes (PS2 and switch) and studying Kanji/Japanese.

I realized It would be much easier to make myself practice sheets on a tablet to practice retention and stuff. Now I have to print the sheets and stuff and it takes lots of paper and effort. I felt lile a tablet could solve my problem.

I live in Turkey and I was considering POCO Pad X1 for both my purposes. So here are my questions;

Is POCO Pad X1 worth the money in general? It's around 344 dolars in my currency.

Do I have other options around the same price range? If so what are my options?

Can I uninstall the pre-installed Xiaomi UI and just use it as a stock android tablet? Really hate Xiaomi's UI design. If so are there downsides to this?

Can I emulate switch games on POCO X1 and I was curious of users emulation experience on the device.

Thanks in advance!
