The Bigme S6c is never far from reach and used every day. It mostly gets used for observations about my yard and garden. But other notes and stuff as well. It's a pretty good 7.8 inch reader as well.

[@its.me_angie]

iPad with good notes and a paperlike screen protector. I am going to delete all the detracting apps that have accumulated over the years.

[@HenriqueRMota]

Very important video. I see many people getting frustrated about Remarkable because they are expecting a fully featured tablet, and that is understandable given the price tag (thanks to Kaleido monopoly of e-ink). Nonetheless, Remarkable is amazing for what it was set to do: to replace your notebooks, sketch paper, random notes, and the absurd amount of printing we all have in our lives. Supernote fits a similar block, with more focus on QoL features for writers. And Onyx Boox is the closest you will get to an iPad with e-ink.

[@stephenh.4476]

The iPad with an Apple Pencil will do just fine as a notebook replacement. It also won’t cost you an absolute fortune and be missing tons of features.

[@dragospahontu]

​@@stephenh.4476both products offer a different value proposition, they're not for the same user. The iPad is a 3 in one The remarkable is a master at replacing your notebook and improving productivity.

[@XxViperMortalxX]

​@@stephenh.4476 the problem with remarkable isnt even that, its a device made to be used for writing but... It has delay... Like... Cmon man wtf is this bullshit, i couldnt buy that shit even if it was dirt cheap, the delay just hurts my soul. Oh and notice on every video u watch if a person writes normaly and kinda in a rush it gets all fucked up

[@reeb3174]

Many people mistakenly compare an ink tablet to an iPad or other tablets. However, there is a significant difference between them, and the ink tablet is not intended to fully replace an iPad. In fact, those who purchase an ink tablet typically do not desire an iPad. They may already own one or simply have no interest in owning one at all. One of the key distinctions between an ink tablet and an iPad is the primary purpose they serve. While an iPad is designed to be a versatile device that can handle a wide range of tasks, an ink tablet is specifically designed for handwriting and sketching purposes. This makes it a preferred choice for individuals who prioritize a seamless and natural writing experience. Moreover, the ink tablet offers a unique set of features that cater to the needs of artists, designers, and creative professionals. With advanced pressure sensitivity and precision, it allows users to create detailed and intricate drawings or illustrations. This specialized functionality sets it apart from the iPad, which may not provide the same level of precision and accuracy for artistic endeavors. Furthermore, the ink tablet provides a distraction-free environment for those who solely want to focus on their writing or drawing. Unlike an iPad, which often offers various applications and internet connectivity, the ink tablet eliminates these potential distractions and allows users to concentrate solely on their creative work. This feature appeals to individuals who value simplicity and minimalism in their creative process.When I first discovered ink tablets, I was primarily interested in using them for note-taking and reading PDF files. I specifically wanted a tablet that didn't have the distractions of an iPad or a regular tablet. The first ink tablet I came across was the remarkable 2, which I purchased, tried out, and enjoyed. However, I ultimately returned it due to the absence of a backlight and the requirement of a subscription for certain features to be functional. Instead, I opted for the supernote a5x. I used the supernote a5x for several months and was quite pleased with it. It had a backlight and didn't require any additional payments. However, I found that writing and taking notes on the supernote screen didn't quite match the experience of using the remarkable tablet. I wasn't satisfied with it, so I decided to sell it and try the Onyx Boox Tab Ultra C. It was exciting during the first week with its "color screen" and the ability to download Android apps. However, I quickly grew tired of it when I downloaded Outlook, Teams, Notion, and other apps. The constant notifications from these apps became overwhelming, and I found myself constantly exploring new apps on the tablet. I realized that I wasn't being productive with it.That's when I started questioning why I even needed an ink tablet in the first place. What was my actual need for searching for the perfect ink tablet? Then, it dawned on me. I initially looked for an ink tablet because I wanted a distraction-free device without blue light that I could use for taking notes at work. I was tired of staring at screens all day, so I needed an ink tablet where I could take notes and read PDF files. In the end, I went back to the Remarkable 2, which was the perfect ink tablet for my specific needs. Apologies for any mistakes in my English writing. It is not my native language.

[@bradcramer7860]

I’m trying to make this very decision and really appreciated this video. I’m just going back to school and have been considering remarkable for textbooks and pdfs, as well as note taking. I also like that it syncs with OneDrive which is really important. I feel like my laptop and iPhone take care of what the iPad would offer over a remarkable side by side, although I agree with you that sometimes it’s still nice to have that jack-of-all trades product. But I’ve noticed your reviews of the R2 haven’t said it’s great for reading. So two questions: 1. For my use case, what would you recommend? 2. Is there a better e-ink option that also syncs with OneDrive?

[@pf6638]

Thanks for setting it straight for me. I’m immersed in the Apple ecosystem and this answers my question about Remarkable. Your on point about this device being only good for one thing and that’s exactly what I want. Back to basics of my handwritten notes and lists all in one device. The IPad and my MacBooks serves the rest.

[@MC-yu4eb]

Very helpful not just for this choice but for most choices in life. Specialization vs Generalization. Thank you and Respect. Remarkable2, btw.

[@TechGently]

One feature I just found out about today. On phone w client, quickly mentioned a project and I really didn’t have time to create a new page in my Remarkable so I wrote it in an existing note and later circled it copied created a new note and pasted it from clipboard. Very cool feature. I know it’s elementary but prevented it from getting messy.

[@BrandonKBoswell]

Yes. I don’t use cut and paste a ton, but it’s important to know that it’s there for this very reason.

[@davidr1431]

You finally helped me decide to try the RM2. The referral code tipped me over the edge.

[@lovisalarsson7615]

Oh my god. I saw the ad for remarkable and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. But buying it just to try when I have my iPad, it just seem like a lot of money “just to try”. This video helped me a lot - thank you! I’m sticking to my iPad for now, maybe once remarkable is developed further I’ll consider it.

[@mrchicken08]

For me having MS OneNote sync between my iPad and computer is extremely important. While on PC I can screenshot stuff and mark it up on my iPad. Also I can take my iPad to the lab and take notes and then share them with coworkers effortlessly.

[@its.me_angie]

I am so happy that you made this video. I have an iPad Air, which I primarily meant to use for GoodNotes and OneNote for school and other note-taking and creative projects. I kind of lost sight of that. I have run into the issue of not having making out my 64gb iPad Air, and I am seriously thinking about an upgrade to an iPad Pro. So that is my next search. What size would be appropriate for me. While I am primarily a student, I also have the M2 MacBook Air, what would work for me. I would like to dabble using Procreate more. I would also like to dabble in video editing (which I would primarily use my laptop). Thanks again. This video has made me a subscriber.

[@brandonthomas6602]

You and Voja and kit-betts masters are literally the dream team of e ink reviewers, (although kitt is by FAR the best) and I hope y’all can come together again for another video, the longer the vetter, I watched that video so much I know all the words by heart

So there. It's a use case thing. I had 2 favorite guys. Now I have three. The world just got bigger.

[@patrickklein2765]

Good meaningful review! Focus is critical. Would LOVE to see Remarkable find a way to join the Kindle ecosystem for reading.

[@BrandonKBoswell]

Thank you, Patrick! I would love to see it as well, but I don't see Amazon cooperating with that now that the Scribe exists.

[@airlinemac]

I use both. I’m in Apple eco system. So if I need any notes on the go to be able to access any of my Apple devices, I use Apple notes app with Apple Pencil. All other notes which I do not need access any time and any where I use Remarkable.

[@BrandonKBoswell]

Do you ever wonder which note is where?

[@airlinemac]

Oh well, sure I know if I want to refer back to daily notes bits I check Apple notes and any long form they are on remarkable

[@user-ze4nw5ot7n]

I use the remarkable 2 for work notes, and projects that focus on writing. I also have an iPad, but I prefer the remarkable for my work. Haven’t used a physical notebook since.

[@BrandonKBoswell]

Same.

[@BlairSlavin]

If the remarkable was $300 then I would consider it... BUT with pen and tablet...Remarkable is over $600+ and does only one thing. I can just put my iPad on Airplane Mode to take out the distraction factor.

[@BusinessSuccess-4u]

I suggest applying a paper-like screen protector to your iPad. You’ll be amazed at how much it will upgrade your writing experience! 😊Great video!

[@BrandonKBoswell]

It definitely helps, but we’re still talking about a pretty big difference.

[@azmodanpc]

Swiss Army (insanely priced but powerful) Knife for me. I like to read, annotate, listen to music, audio, podcasts, watch movies, play on a single device and not trot three different tools every time.

[@Bruceneuman]

I have both as well as the Kindle Scribe. I think you have pretty much said it. I use all of these devices at work and home. If I could only have one, it would without question be the iPad. While the Remarkable is a very good device, I usually reach for the Scribe for note taking because of the front lit screen. I imagine a student might prefer the Remarkable for longer note taking. Then again students probably prefer a laptop and writing in a notebook. Today written notes can easily be scanned into whatever computer device we are using.

[@gnostie]

Does Scribe have good handwriting-to-text conversion?

[@Bruceneuman]

@@gnostie I do not think that any of the conversion features are good enough. If I remember correctly, Notability was the best of them. Rather than script, I take my handwritten notes by printing them.

What pen are you using on the remarkable?

[@cachemydrift]

I’m stuck between these two for law school. I think the remarkable will be the best choice for focus but iPad does everything I could possibly need. I just worry I will get distracted easily.

[@BrandonKBoswell]

remarkable 100% for that use-case.

[@2niteL8R]

They both have their place, at least to me they do. The iPad is like having a chat with your mates at the pub The e-ink is a close connection and conversation between you and a friend!

[@kalisworl]

I use my ipad for note taking in college and dont find myself frequently distracted at all, if anything a laptop is more distracting. As long as it is on do not disturb of some sort it just feels like the best option to me, you can open ur lecture notes if need be and annotate those directly! I haven’t used the remarkable and I think it looks nice but at its price point it doesn’t seem worth it unless price isn’t an issue. So if u have to choose and the ipad isn’t out of ur budget id say go with that. I am definitely biased but there are ways to make ur ipad less of a distraction and I am someone diagnosed w ADHD!

[@2niteL8R]

If you go down the iPad path, consider a screen cover to improve the writing feel

[@stephenh.4476]

You should look into the focus features of iOS. It turns off all distractions.

[@KatanaHYC]

I use both. Remarkable more for annotating with peace. iOS for everything else. The Apple Pencil is great but not for notes, even with a good screen protector.

[@BrandonKBoswell]

I couldn’t agree more!

[@KatanaHYC]

@@BrandonKBoswell in fact, I had an iPad M1, I didn’t use it as much. Got the Remarkable to use it as a writing device but soon I missed the multimedia abilities of the iPad. And I decided to get an iPad Mini, which is as portable as I need, taking into account that I mainly use a MacBook Pro for my workflow. For me, the best combo is MacBook (at any spec), Remarkable and an iPad Mini.

whats the best e-ink device for reading pdfs though?

[@gulpowizzard]

Definitely not Remarkable ;). The most versatile is Onyx Boox Note Air (10.3"/ Tab Ultra (10.3") or Tab X (13.3") The rest is Kindle Scribe - though with an asterisk that the file might not be the pdf you're writing/reading on, Kobo Elipsa E2 and Supernote A5X - definitely not the best for pdfs but sufficient for some (me). Every item is 10.3"(ish). There are some worth mentions but it's a "short" comment ;)

[@BrandonKBoswell]

The best I’ve found is GoodNotes, but it still isn’t an enjoyable writing experience in my opinion.

[@Siberian.]

What irks me the most about the ReMarkable 2 is that you don't see the colors of your highlighter or colored pens. I love to color-scheme my notes, it helps me to highlight important words or sentences etc. So it probably the iPad for me.
