Notebooks that balance price durability and paper performance for study and notes
Affordable notebooks can still offer good paper and durability Choose paper weight based on pen types 70 to 100 gsm works well for most gel and ballpoint pens Heavier paper is better for markers and fountain pens Consider stitched bindings for longevity and spiral bindings for lay flat convenience Size matters A5 is portable while A4 gives more space for diagrams Look for refillable or disc bound systems if you like reorganizing pages and test paper with your preferred pens before buying in bulk
