PhD Student Reviews ReMarkable 2

- I bought the ReMarkable 2 in the hopes that it would be an excellent study aid to organise my notes while doing a PhD. This video goes over the pros and cons of the device, specifically from the point of view of a student.
***Important to note is that the ReMarkable gives you a money back guarantee, so there is little harm in trying it out if you're curious! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
for anyone interested:
the updates in the past couple of months have made the experience so much more pleasurable !!
- zooming in and out works excellent !
- scrolling has become so much easier, with a quick scroll option
- sending pdf version directly via mail has become easier
I have been working with mine (as a science student) for a year now, and i always enjoyed it, now even more.
some of the problems (not being able to look up words...) are still bugging.
All in all so happy!!
Can you update on the handwriting to text feature? Any improvement?
Thanks for sharing. It sounds great you are happy with your device, but it sucks if you can not look up words in your saved notes. Some apps like notability on iPad give you that ability and that is amazing and time saving. Do you know if Remarkable are working on it? Or was this option available on previous version, RM1?
is the third point of "sending pdf version directly via mail has become easier" only available via connect subscription? This is one of the turns offs, as connect is a monthly subscription and adds an additional 100$+ per year if I keep paying for it
Great to hear that they let you zoom in and out now, really strange that they did not let you do that before.
For me the biggest problem are no choice of different color pencils (at least back when I tested it), the missing background lighting as well as the price. It is just too expensive for what you get.
I do love that pencil with the eraser on the other end, tho.
How to get referral discount or is there any offers on special occasions
Really appreciate the honest and balanced review. It's so hard to find a non-sponsored/promoted review these days. Thanks for taking the time.
I chose the remarkable because at my job I take notes every day, and the battery lasts way longer than if I bought an iPad. The screen won't bother your eyes vs iPad, and you're less likely to get distracted vs. the iPad and its apps. I think remarkable is very useful for people who love writing and love taking notes and need to take notes daily.
Yeah I have an iPad but I want something exclusively for work. I literally JUST want to take notes and be able to upload them to Dropbox. Right now I’m using legal pads, and I feel like it’s not very environmentally friendly…
The battery life is a really good point. Thanks for sharing!
exactly its just a replacement for a notebook and not a replacement for tablets laptops or any kind of such devices its best for using in integration with a tablet laptop or a pc just as a replacement of your personal diary
I agree. Which is exactly what it’s for and excels at.
This is the most useful review i've gotten yet, like of anything
Yea this really is a cool and promising product that just hasn't hit the mark yet. I hope the company sticks around for long enough to put in the necessary polish. As you said, I'm eager to see what they can do in a couple of generations.
Hi Melody! Hopeful PhD student AND lefty here, this review was really helpful! I have one on the way to try out for the 30 day guarantee but I'll be watching out for these complaints (especially the left-handed incompatibility issues). I've subscribed, too. Always excited to see more women in academia on youtube
Oh no! Did being left handed become a problem?
Also a lefty here, how was your experience
This is by far the most useful review on YT. Very informative!
I hope ReMarkable sees this video. This seems like a lack of user testing (most of which can be fixed in software). Thanks for the great review.
Yep, they implemented the pinch to zoom feature
@@dem4xed they did?
@@justsayin8893 Yes, as I said. You find videos of it online. I also own a rm2 and can confirm this really works
What a review, spot on.
This is what everyone look for, addressing real issues.
Great work, well done 👍
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!! I've been debating about getting one for awhile now, and this was super helpful!!
Great review, thank you! The issues with the left and right hand writing were especially helpful for me but you also helped me with a few other things that I hadn't even considered, like the template problem(s).
So helpful! You gave me ALL the answers I needed...
There’s actually daily/weekly/monthly/yearly planner templates you can get that can do what you need.
This was a great review, and very helpful! Thank you for putting the time and effort into making it!
I bought both.. I use the iPad for all media and books and whatnot for my online courses and use the remarkable for my “paper/notebook” some instructors won’t allow an iPad but will allow the remarkable for tests and finals. It’s definitely not ideal for everyone, but it’s an amazing writing experience. I bought the First generation because of the physical buttons and I’m glad I did because the second Gen remarkable is extremely fragile and I’ve seen so many people having trouble having it repaired. Just some extra info for others who are still trying to decide. Also if you close the menu while writing it gets rid of the X so it won’t exit out.
That’s a really interesting breakdown of media vs notes. Thanks for sharing :)
Smart choice. I bought the 1st gen as well used in offerup for $100 lol. The software updates has kept the 1st gen device viable even today. The only downside is the battery life which only lasts me about 3 days of active use.
While I hate writing on glass (going to buy a apple pencil tip that will help), using Notability with the iPad gives me some functionality that is a non-negotiable requirement. As I take notes while on zoom-like meetings, I use Notability's camera feature to take a picture of the Participant list and it places it right in my notes. I can crop it and pinch zoom to position it right where I want to and annotate it. Further, I take screen shots of customer PowerPoint slides, or IT Architecture slides, which again places it right in the notes and I can size and annotate from there. The ability to use different ink colors and highlighter colors helps me draw attention to specific items in the note.
Last, I don't leverage the convert writing to text function, but I don't have to. I can search for anything I've written (legibly) and the app finds it among the thousands of notes I've taken. No context on my choice.
Thank you so much! A little sad that this video got so little attention, but it’s really (finally) what I was looking for. Thank you so much. I am looking for a best way to take notes for university with good erasing and organizing features. You saved me time, nerves and money indeed. Thank you again
This is one of most thorough, accurate and honest review of any product i have see so far on youtube. Good Job. 👍
I really appreciate the review. I'm a computer science/ cyber security student who was considering picking up the Remarkable 2 as I wanted something super light and immune from distractions for things like math homework, annotating documents, etc. I've decided to go with the iPad Mini, a cheap third party stylus, a good protective folio case, and throw a paper feeling matte screen protector on it. The total cost of all of that is still less than the Remarkable 2 if I bought their first party accessories. Plus since handwriting recognition is so much better, that is another massive pro for the iPad given how awful my handwriting is.
I think I'll keep it on focus mode and research ways to prevent myself from being able to open distraction apps. It seems that by allowing myself only note taking, school, Kindle, and calculator apps, I'll have exceeded the functionality of the Remarkable 2 and without the need for a continuous monthly subscription.
One thing is that if remarkable decided to ditch their proprietary operating system on one model and go with Android while retaining the screen, I think that makes it a much more compelling option for tons of people. Handwriting recognition is often excellent on many Android apps, as well as GBoard, the default keyboard. They could have a few essential apps by default and make sure focus mode is always on to prevent distractions. I'm not sure if Google would allow this kind of device to get access to its Play Store however.
Fantastic review...You saved me some money :)
I realize I am kinda randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to stream new movies online?
@Kason Eduardo Thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it !!
@Ryker Camden Glad I could help :D
Love your channel bro
This product seemed completely overpriced and I would expect all of these issues to have been addressed if they are expecting consumers to pay that much for an unpolished experience
This is an excellent review, I can't fault anything that has been said. I have a ReMarkable 2 and I love writing on it, but all the things in this review are 100 percent correct this is not the right device for everybody - and some things just need to be fixed or reworked or added. I agree with the previous comment which hopes that ReMarkable themselves see this!
I've never seen anyone discuss tech with such intensity and importance. Had to watch till the end.
For the pen falling off, I had that problem too, but then realized I was placing it wrong. If you put it tip down, then it’s a much stronger bond. I also think there was an update and you can now zoom in or out of anything you write or read. Very nice crisp quality when zoomed in. They also added two additional colors, red and blue, which show up on the desktop version of the file.
I have the Remarkable 2 and I’m really impressed tbh. It’s got some kinks, but I was honestly expecting a lot worse. Writing feels amazing and it has more types of writing features (fine liner, paint brush, calligraphy) than other competing tablets. The eraser on the pen is also the one thing that remarkable has over other paper tablets. I use it like crazy and it’s the most natural feeling when writing notes bc it’s muscle memory. It’s just so much more simple than other products. Only things I would fix is getting rid of the subscription and adding back lighting on the screen that you can turn on or off. Also, a more secure pen holder.
So, did you buy the iPad air? Did you find it more useful? I just bought the remarkable, but after using it for a week, I am not yet sure that it's what I need. Willing to hear about your experience with the iPad. 🌷
I really dont understand all these "Great product but this is why I am returning it" videos. When i buy equipment, I literally put hours and hours into research, ask friends who might have bought it and so on. When you buy something like the remarkable, you buy it to replace your notebooks and sticky notes. You do not buy it to be a piece of entertainment.The whole idea with a device that does not have SoME, TH-cam etc is to be able to have your full attention without any distraction. Replacing it with an Ipad also ads extra weight, clicking sound when writing and lots of disturbing popups from apps and also much reduced battery life.
Totally agree with you
Finally a left handed person to represent us!! great video
Thanks for the review I was thinking of getting one of these also, but you really touched on a lot of that pain points that I was concerned with. I think I will also wait before buying one.
Excellent. I received exactly the same remarkable, portfolio, etc this week and have been struggling to see if it was a good choice. Then I came across your video and it answered so many concerns. I am leaning heavily on returning it next week and just investing paperlike screen protector for the iPad air I already own,
0:39 Bingo! That's the first thing I needed to know about the Remarkable 2. Can it export what you write on it into a Windows text editor for proofing/formatting, etc? I don't want PDFs or PNGs from it. I'm not a diary or a to-do-list person, which is what this thing seems to be really for.
Thank you! I'm also doing a doctorate and have been umming and ahhing about buying the Remarkable 2. This was helpful.
Did you purchase ?
did you test drawing gloves on your left hand to see if it would fix that dumb issue with not being able to move the x button?
Melody, really enjoyed the review, I've been looking for critical comments on the Remarkable.
I do have one further question concerning the Remarkable's ability to mark-up pdfs. When you're dealing with research papers or articles in bulk, to the extent that you're using Zotero or Mendeley, how friendly is this device with your other file management options? Did you find it feasible to load pdfs in and out of the device?
The small on-board storage seems concerning to me on these grounds - thanks in advance if you answer these.
Hello! If my memory serves me correctly, I think the ReMarkable's ability to export pdf documents onto the computer is quite good. I have never used any device to markup journal articles however and haven't tried to bulk load them or bulk export them from the ReMarkable. Hope you find your answer!
@@MelodyDobrinin this helps a great deal - thanks again and great review!
I thought Remarkable 2 now has pinch to zoom and two-finger drag to move around the page which would allow it to operate like the iPad air as you had explained.
Yes it does.
@@slackmoehrle ayy! I like tht!
@@slackmoehrle Too bad that holding out for the 2.6 release and getting a better case would have solved some of her problems. The left hand issue needs to be solved.
It does
I got the Supernote A5X for my work and it is a superior device in an aspects except for the slight feel advantage that the RM2 has. However, the built-in screen protector and excellent ceramic nib pen (no new nib replacements required) give the Supernote the edge in my opinion.
The iPad some for versatility, whereas I believe the Supernote wins for removing distractions, excellent week-long battery life, writing, document annotations, and Kindle support.
Voja from My Deep Guide has created excellent hyperlinked templates which are quite well laid out.
Searching for keywords? You can use your own handwriting for organizing your notes as titles and you can make bookmarks for pages (not necessarily keywords but similar functionality).
How are you liking your iPad?
This video is super useful! Thank you! I recently purchased a Boox Tablet Ultra. It is absolutely wonderful for reading research papers and taking handwritten notes. It's a bit expensive compared with Remarkable but absolutely worth the price.
Remarkably good review!! Right from everyday use, the pro's and cons is very helpful indeed. Thank you very much. I was considering but will go for paperlike on an iPad. I was wondering though if you ever bought the ipad air and how satisfied you are with that. Cheers from Jean
thank you for wonderful review. i am not sure, is it good for pdf-reading-machine? what is your opinion?
Thanks for an honest and thorough review. Appreciate it!
I loved the review, very good summary and insight.
Thanks for the review! I'm looking for something for a similar use case as yourself and I think many of the same frustrations you outline would apply to myself as well.
I've had a Remarkable 2 for a couple years and love it for what I need it to do: editing PDF manuscripts, brainstorming ideas for new novels, and reading long-form articles I get off the internet. I used to have stacks of yellow notepads strewn in my office; those are gone now, thanks to the Remarkable. Another use I find helpful is uploading ebooks to the Remarkable and being able to annotate them directly in the ebook file. I use this both for final edits on my own books as well as reading ebooks for story research purposes.
Those things said, I have experienced most of what you find problematic and agree that those are all issues a potential buyer should consider. If I were "on the go" or had a busy schedule, I would HATE it for calendaring. The writing-to-text is still buggy, and if you are like me and have sloppy cursive, the only way to get a reasonably clean conversion is to print, which is a lot slower. I almost never use that feature. The glitching of page turning is also annoying, though it doesn't happen as much as it used to; I think the software has been much improved in the two years since you posted this video.
I was frustrated by the x button to, but i found that if you close the lateral menu before start writing, the x button disappear and there's no problem
Best review I have seen so far, thank you.
Hi. Thanks for the review. Do you know if the grey scales become red and blue colors when exported to pdf in the PC app ? I haven’t found the answer to this question in any review on internet or TH-cam. Hope you can help me out. Thanks.
Hi Gerardo, I didn't see any red or blue when I digitized my notes. I don't specifically remember digitizing any of the grey scale pens, but I probably did and my strong suspicion is that they just come up as grey. The highlighter comes up in yellow though.
Having a keyword search function for handwritten notes (converted to text on the device or not) is a show stopper. We hand write our daily journals and must be able to search them over extended time periods. We also want our privacy and do not want our data on someone else's servers...ever.
We still use 2007 Onenote with notebooks spanning 2007 to today and sizes exceeding 1GB. Onenote will search that size and find all relevant 'hits' in a second or two. BUT, Onenote runs on a bulky laptop and it's a writing on glass experience.
Still looking for the features and computer integration of Onenote but not the bulk of a laptop.
iPad air???
really nice and objective review - thanks a lot for that!
Left handed writer here as well. The top left x can be hidden by pushing the top right button to hide the menu which hides the top left x as well. Unhide to change pens. Hiding the menu also gives you the full A5x area to write on.
Good review! I thought the handwriting to text would be good if you were maybe sending some notes from a meeting you attended and needed to convert those notes into a document for yourself or your team. This device feels like it would be really good for like an Executive Assistant or someone that attended conferences and meetings and lectures that needs to jot down notes and use the note information later. Or someone that visits clients and makes notes during their meeting, and uses those notes to create a concept or strategy for said client. I can totally see it being useful for an assistant type person. Really interested in this device and glad I came across your review.
Your presentation was absolutely wonderful. You answered so any questions that I had about this device. Also, I too am left handed. So your input was quite helpful to me. I hope you don’t mind if I subscribe to see more of your content.
BTW what are you studying to earn your PhD?
Is the any chance open some color templates? Sometimes when study is very hello fully and you can write in colors too?
I don't think there is any colour on the device. But this might've changed with later iterations of the product.
I found Remarkable is only for people who have distraction issues. It will help them so much to focus, which is totally different from iPad, given the multiple sources of distractions within it.
Ty for the wonderful and very helpful review.
You're attaching the stylus incorrectly, that's why it's weak. You can zoom in on documents since a recent update.
I'm a PhD student and I just bought a reMarkable 2 and I will be returning it for many of the same reasons. It still only allows you to email the handwriting-to-text and that is not at all useful. With the supposed integration with Google Drive, I thought I could export it there, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Thanks for your review!
Thanks for the review! FYI - you are attaching the pen upside down. The magnetic strip on the side of the tablet is much stronger when you point the tip towards the bottom rather than the top. I've never had the pen fall off in my bag and use the same folio cover. Hope this tip helps keep your pen secured!
Do you have a referral link to purchase a Remarkable2?
Nice review!
I'm also an academic and so far the rm2 has been perfect for me. The pinch-to-zoom feature was really lacking, but the good news is that it was implemented in the last updated that just came out. About custom templates, you can in fact add custom templates via some hacky way. It's not very difficult and there are many on-line guides that teach you how to do that (or do it for you).
Hi Tiago, I think you can add custom templates by saving them as PDFs onto the device. The Remarkable company does seem like they are updating all the time though, so I think a lot of the problems I had will be fixed before the next version comes out.
@@MelodyDobrinin How do you get the updates? A text, or email, with a link?
Thank you Melody.
Great review...
Would this be a good tablet to use for school?
Great honest review. Thank you.
If you do not mind, please keep writing your experiences on notetaking apps-reference manager app-Data analysis app etc.
Thank you for the video, I'm a MA student now I know that I need to wait for a while to get something to actually benefit me more as a student, then a high price "reMark" that still dont do everything a real pen does for example.
Thanks a lot for the honest review!
Nice. Have you bought already the iPad? if yes could you share a video about your experience please :)
Hi Jeremy, thanks for your comment. I did buy the iPad and I'm working on a video now. I'll post here when it's done!
Thanks and congrats for the excellent video!
Thank you for this review! But a non-negligible point, the ligntening! How can we work when there is no more natural light or when it is weak? The end of the winter day outdoors, summer evenings etc. It is a minimalist device based on productivity but that limits things a lot when you work often and everywhere doesn't it?
I think having back lighting would go off the goal of reMarkable? Just my opinion--it wants to simulate the paper experience. Having a back light would ruin the concept, nonetheless, the feature e-ink wouldn't really be e-ink.
Excellent review, thanks for your time! I wanted to buy the Remarkable for similar reasons, I will look into Apple Air and Paperlike! Have you been using this combo, how has it been for you so far?
I use Super Note instead and it does not have these issues 😊
@@framestomind7548 i bought super note a few months ago too and I am in loooove!
@@jessyca9833 great!!
😀👍🏻
Quick and to the point! Thank you.
Thank you for the in-depth review.
Most of the issues mentioned here were addressed in the Boox Note Air. Their next gen device since this review was uploaded.
I am getting it tomorrow. I find this review useful still since real life and real needs should guide tech.
I really think they listened to this reviewer.
I would be curious how she would review the Boox Note Air.
Great review. I’m in the opposite camp. I’ve been using an iPad for notes for years and just bought the Remarkable 2. I am also left handed but write with my palm below the pen s o the X hasn’t affected me. On the iPad the paper-like screen protector greatly improves the feel. I switched because I never found an app on the iPad that I clicked with. Would love to see a follow up on which apps you are using on the iPad and how you like them.
Which one is your daily which one do you use?
I like how you corrected your own grammar at 7:12. I do the same! Thx for the useful review video, student as well!
Great review, thank you!
Good summary. I also recently purchased a RM2, and am in the process of returning. In my use case, I manage multiple complex projects, so I had high hopes it would help me. However, the slowness to flip between pages when looking through 15 or 20 sheets was to slow for me; until working on the device, I had not realized I want the quick scroll capability offered by an iPad. Especially given that RM2 does not offer a word search feature.
Second, the existing zoom feature is not useful for me. As I try to squeeze text on a page, I tried writing smaller or selecting the text and shrinking it; but when I tired the zoom function I was disappointed. Wish I could pinch with my fingers to zoom.
Last, I tired it side by side with a iPad (without paper like film) this week. Surprisingly...I did not see a significant difference in the writing experience...aside from the Marker Plus nib being smaller than an Apple Pencil tip. It was kind of sad, given all the hype and advertisement over the RM2 writing experience. Perhaps RM2 has a glass cover on the screen; whereas RM1 did not; I’m speculating.
Anyway, I also will be getting an iPad (11 inch), although I considered the SuperNote A5X; their pens do not require replacement of nibs, which I like.
For fun, you maybe enjoy this video which compares the writing experiences:
th-cam.com/video/rZ-mW6otcXw/w-d-xo.html
I bought an iPad and I'm using it primarily with the Nebo app and I'm very happy with it :)
@Michael Berstein good question
Michael & Philip: Thank you for your feedback. As stated above, my use case was to replace my multiple notebooks which I use to manage multiple projects.
I gather you are happy with your RM2; that is good. For me, the key features I did not like are:
1. Cost: $650 with folio and pen
2.Cannot see two notebooks at once.
3. Slow responsiveness compared to standard tablets; I flip through notes often, similar to a physical notebook.
In the end, I purchased a Samsung Tab S6 lite for ~€280. The writing experience is nice, with the soft tip of the pen; similar to the Staedler Noris Digital Jumbo pen. It also me a lot of customization, such as pen thickness, ink colors, highlighter colors, paper color; PDFs look great, and editing them is very convenient. Plus responsiveness is great; not to mention I can open up to three windows (e.g., two notebooks and a PDF).
In the end, after experiencing several tablets, I say it comes down to the persons use case. For example, as a journal, I would probably be happy with the RM2. Plus, for some the e-ink is a major plus, because there is no backlight (although I don’t mind the backlight because the Tab S6 lite has a blue light filter and dark mode).
Overall though, I am glad RM2 introduced me to digital note taking. Maybe I’ll get the RM3 when it comes out in a few years.
If you are left-handed, can't you flip the tablet so that the handle is on the right side?
Strangely, no.
I write the same way that you do. And yes it's incredibly annoying when that happens, but I noticed that if you touch the button that's above the ballpoint, pencil, fine liner, etc. It will disappear.
With the icon above the pen selection, you are able to hide the complete menu, except that icon.
I think I'll follow your lead and wait a bit to see if handwriting to text gets better in future iterations of the dévide. Thank you.
Thank you for the comprehensive review. Curious now what your thesis is that you are working on.
Just so happens I have a video on that: th-cam.com/video/AcnNBnmr3XA/w-d-xo.html
I wonder how the reading experience and note taking on PDF are? I am a Master Student and want to get it so I can put notes directly on Lecture slides and PDF books.
Hi Hazhy, as long as you are happy to go through the process of uploading your pdfs, I think it would actually be pretty good with this. You just have to be prepared for your slides having no colour.
Paperlike/IPad 12.9 along with good read and notability give a good experience for academic purposes and study. I still got supernote A5x for planning and free reading and annonations on non academic readings.
Thank you ! I search a device for my daily work and your video confirms the remarkable isn't the good one.
I'm a left writer too and I really want to have key words on my notes and texte transcription.
I'm curious about a review on the IPad Air :D
I use the Staedtler Noris digital jumbo 180J 22. EMR Stylus with soft digital eraser. This is much cheaper than the remarkable pens and I find a slightly better writing experience.
thanks for your video, like it. Could you please tell me if we can look up a word in an article with remarkable 2 by pointing and holding the stylus/finger on the word then the definition comes out, like on Kindle?
I don't think so. As far as I remember, it doesn't work as an e-reader, except to display and enable your to write on the pdfs. I don't believe there is any metadata attached to words in a pdf.
@@MelodyDobrinin I see, thanks a lot, many PhD students said they took notes on ipad like you, i think i will buy an ipad though it's more expensive.
Can I use in OBS studio
Thanks a lot for the balanced review :)
Thank you for the review.
like the honest review but I am kinda confused, you can zoom in and out on the remarkable 2 but she said that she couldn't, she probably didn't have that update
Excellent review! Most people give mostly Pros and not the really Cons to the device. Maybe Remarkable 3 will be better. I’ll wait til then.
13:28 do you write in cursive?
What about the actual reading experience of those journal articles??
yeah, I came here for that. Quite surprised that she didn't bring this up
Thanks for the review. There are some mean comments here, but don't listen to them. This is your review and your own opinion.
I do think that you can compare the RM2 to an iPad, especially if you look at the price tag of $399. As a student I was also looking for a tablet where I can take notes, read, mark and edit documents (PDF). I can do it on both tablets, but the iPad is much more sophisticated since you can have split screen where you can put a PDF file one side and a note taking app on the other side. I use the Paperlike screen protector, which makes writing on an iPad more pleasant. I was interested on a ReMarkable 2, since I like e-Ink displays, but the price of the tablet is too much for what it actually offers.
I don’t get the negative comments either, I thought her review was fair and super helpful.
Pen and paper is the "Gold Standard." It works all situations e.g. posting packages, sitting school exams, signing documents etc. Plus it doesn't need to be recharged and is at a fraction of the price. An a5 soft cover journal with a Refyne EP1 Titanium bolt action pen is the best setup I found so far. EP1 uses a Parker style refill that only needs to be swap out one to three times a year depending on the amount writing you do. I like the idea of remarkable but it does not work in everyday life
Thank you for making this video! I am in a similar situation, I am a master's program and I'm interested in a e-ink tablet. I watched the video from my iPad pro, I think I am going to give it a go with some of the note taking apps on iPad. I honestly never considered taking notes on my iPad before 🤔
I like the idea of the remarkable being a focused device, I have ADHD. It's not hard for a notification to derail me. So I am not done with the idea of the remarkable. My plan is to try out some of the iPad note taking apps along with using the focus mode on iPad. Perhaps that'll work well enough for me. The other nice thing about the iPad is I already use it for the university LMS and for Zoom on occasion. So maybe the note taking will be more natural with the iPad? You've given me a lot to think about. Thanks again!
You can also set up guided access on your iPad and let someone else control the guided access passcode.
Love my Remarkable. I use it everyday hands down better writing experience over my ipad Pro.
Excellent review!
Pen is supposed to be pointed down when attached to side. Someone posted video on Reddit showing the magnet hold is much stronger point down.
This has been one of my temptations over a year now (and more for the 1st version). So glad I resisted. And now they introduced a subscription nonsense
Oh I have a question 🙋♂️ Could I see all the pages separately in a birds eye view?
yes
@@r3lativ cool, thanks.
Wait what I can zoom on my remarkable just like an iPad
