Kindle Scribe 2 2024: How it Compares as an E Ink Device for Note-Taking & Planning

[@damonpthomas]

I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure any notes you take on the Scribe are accessible through the Kindle app on any other device. Definitely a cool feature. Thanks for the great video. New updates look brilliant

[@bodendorfer]

That’s what I believed as well. The file is accessible on the kindle app but not of the annotations you make are. Those are saved directly on the device and only on the device at this time.

As a e-reader its fantastic, as a writing device, its below par. No zoom, export gives you 1990s pixelated hand writing annotations. Hardware wise, it’s the same as the previous generation, just slight cosmetic changes.

[@bodendorfer]

Agree. Ereader first, eink second

At 13:28 I noticed that after highlighting some text you didn't get the popup menu. How did you disable the popup after highlighting? (I find the popup annoying since I have to touch the page with my finger to dismiss it before I can highlight another portion of text.)

Great review and I’m a new sub now. I was all onboard with the Kindle until you mentioned the no backup capability. That’s a deal breaker for me. I’ll now immerse myself into your Boox reviews👍

Is all this applicable to the Kobo Clara Colour 2 as well?

[@bodendorfer]

yes and we will have a video with the Kobo soon.

no AI on Kindle Scribe in UK

[@bodendorfer]

Wonder if that has to do more with your regulations. I know Apple has limited a lot of AI in the EU as well.

Is this device suitable for sheet music and note taking on sheet music,

I wonder if a rougher screen, means that the nibs will wear down faster?

[@bodendorfer]

One would naturally think that, however I think just like any e-ink device its more about the pressure you write with.
