2 Bundle-reMarkable 2 Tablet (10.3” Digital Paper Display) – Includes Gray Polymer Weave Book Folio,Marker Plus,18 Spare Marker Tips,USB-A to USB-C Cable,1-Year Free Connect Trial,(RM911)

Got one for the office. Tired of all the post it’s and papers, and this fits the bill very nicely. And there’s videos and tutorials on line to help you use this most efficiently. Nice feel to the pen on the tablet, and it writes with ease. I’m used to fountain pens and the lightness of the touch is about the same. I’ve been using for 2 months straight and no sign of the stylus tip wearing out yet. Gotta love a product that does what it’s supposed to without hassle or compromise.

I had reMarkable 2, and after getting the pro, I love having the color on E Ink displays; especially, pro is using Gallery 3 which is color E Ink without color filter.

I really wanted to like my Remarkable 2. I have several business colleagues that have them, only one of whom really likes theirs (and only uses it for very basic note taking), another who quit using theirs because "it's just an expensive piece of paper that does less than my iPad," and the rest who universally say that the Remarkable 2 is expensive for its limited functionality. I will add that it has some strange, problematic bugs. Issues / Problems: 1. I recently attended a conference and used my Remarkable 2 to take notes from ~22 meetings. Although the Remarkable 2 works well for taking notes and is particularly good at deciphering my handwriting to typed text, I noticed that two of the quick sheets that I created to take notes from two of the meetings have randomly disappeared. They're not in "My Files," they're not in any of the 3 folders I created, they're not in the trash, and when I search for the title of each quick sheet, the Remarkable 2 says that there are no files with those names / words. This is a huge, problematic bug. 2. The user interface is not at all intuitive. For example, when you tap "quick sheets" at the top, the Remarkable 2 thinks that you want to create a new quick sheet rather than taking you to your existing quick sheets. There are several other features that are not intuitive and you just have to go to the Remarkable 2 website (or better yet, search YouTube) to learn how to do. 3. The user guide and "help" articles are very, very poor. Several of them tell you to tap on an icon or to perform an action, but do not show you what the icon looks like or where to locate it (different icons are available depending on what type of document you're using). Several of the articles tell you what you can do, but have no links to articles HOW to do them. Good luck searching - the help articles are poorly indexed and key words / features that are described in some pages are not used at all in other pages (i.e. different key words are used instead). I will say that Remarkable's support team has slowly started embedding videos into help articles to make it more clear where and how to do things that the text in the articles poorly or incompletely describe. 4. Bottom line - if you are used to using any other touch screen tablet, for whatever reason, Remarkable has chosen to use completely different gestures and controls for things that are pretty much universally adopted on every tablet. 5. The stylus tips wear out incredibly fast. You can buy a third party metal one, but this is simply a bad accessory that Remarkable should replace with a metal stylus tip. 6. The magnetic pen attaches to the side of the Remarkable 2, which seems convenient, until you put your Remarkable 2 inside a backpack, case, purse, etc. It detaches way too easily. Even carrying the Remarkable 2 in your hand is really easy to dislodge and drop the pen. There are some third party folio covers that have a secure pocket for the stylus, but again, why Remarkable hasn't already solved that is odd. 7. When you mix drawings, diagrams, or tables with writing in the same document, the Remarkable changes every word to text and omits the drawings, diagrams, and tables when you convert the document to text. I was surprised that it couldn't recognize a basic 2-column / 3 -row table and that it couldn't keep a cloud with text as a cloud when converting. If you want to have a table, diagram, or drawing in your converted text doc, you have to convert it from handwriting to typed text, select and delete the things you did not want converted to text, go back to the original handwritten doc, select each individual object that you want to copy/paste into the converted text doc, and then paste them individually into the converted doc. Not very elegant, but possible. 8. The distinction between "notebooks" and "folders" is pretty nonsensical and unnecessary. All you need is a file structure to organize and visually de-clutter your documents, and the ability to search for keywords so you can quickly and easily locate specific documents. What it does do well: 1. It is good for taking handwritten notes. Really good. 2. It is surprisingly good at recognizing handwriting and accurately converting it to typed text , even when the handwirting looks like chicken scratch 3. Battery life is excellent 4. I like the Remarkable because it's very light weight. Far lighter than an iPad Pro with smart folio keyboard or even a Macbook Air or Chromebook. 5. The ability to send an email version of your docs is pretty good Although the Remarkable 2 allows you to sync docs with third party applications like Google Drive, etc, the monthly recurring cost is kind of excessive for what little it does. There are quite a few document templates, but they're pretty limited and there is no way to create custom templates or modify existing templates, so I find the templates to be not terribly useful. Would I buy a Remarkable 2 now that I have had one for several months and know what I now know? Probably not. I might be inclined to buy one at half the current price, but almost certainly not at the current price with the bugs and shortcomings above. I'll keep using mine, at least for a while, to see whether and how Remarkable improves the user interface and fixes the terrible lifespan of the stylus tips.

Neat tech to write naturally but way more inefficient than my handwritten journal. It’s slow for my writing, challenging to adjust size of writing and manage a neat notebook. Highlighting was useless since it’s not in color. If you’re reading a lot of pdf documents I could see it making more sense. I’m a heavy note taker at work, I organize a lot of my daily to-dos and meeting notes. I found this to be slow to use in this manner.

I wanted to like this so badly, but it just fell short and unfortunately I will be returning. What does it do well? Well...you write on it. And that actually works pretty well to be honest. What doesn't it do well? - It is TERRIBLY clunky. Scrolling is not intuitive and it incredibly laggy, same with page turning, entering passwords, etc. At this price point, I would expect a MUCH better user experience and fluidity interacting with the display. - Everything seems to be bare minimum from a functionality perspective. For example: if you have authenticated wifi at work, you will not be able to connect to wifi on this device. It allows you to connect to the wifi and that is it. No option to accept a prompt, etc. - They don't even bother creating a separate version for the 2 versus the Pro. I have the 2 and I still have an option for a highlighter...even there there is no color. So when I highlight it's just gray, dark gray, light gray, etc. - The eraser on the pen is miserable - I don't even use it. Sometimes registers, sometimes doesn't. Overall - my main issue is the price point. There is no reason this should cost more than $200. The functionality reminds me of something built in 2010 vs something in 2024. It is way to slow and laggy for this price point. I have an iPad Pro and it's not even CLOSE to being as good as that. I would say just fork over the extra hundred bucks and get the iPad or something else. You won't regret it.

This was on my “want” list for a wile. Glad I bought it - invaluable in both work and every day life

An amazing product for my daily writing

Less than a month and the pen started writing without me touching the screen! Changed the nib more than three times (as advised on the internet) with no luck! ! Complete waste of money !!
