Lucky I barely use social media so I dont have that kind of distractions although my whatsapp sometimes doesnt stop, I have seen this type of devices in the past but never been interested since I didnt use to write, would be nice to use on the road the traveler version I like it more since it has a bit more of screen, a bigger build in screen would be nice, similar to a 14 inch laptop, I guess would not be hard, or probably turn a chromebook into a Freewite machine? I do use some online resources when Im writing to get more data but cool gadget to formulate ideas ✌️

This is the biggest adjustment writers have to make, which is to write a draft and add things later. You could mark something like:
xx add statistics about this xx
And then later when you are editing, you add the statistics. The idea is to get the structure of your writing out, then you add what was missing later. There is the idea that the best writers are rewriters.
A Chromebook would work, so long as you disconnect the internet. Otherwise, what ends up happening is you'll get email pings or want to research something. Two hours later, you come back to the paragraph you started.
George R. R. Martin, the writer of Game of Thrones, for example, writes on an old computer running a DOS version of WordStar.
