I enjoy your honest and informative videos, but no offense intended, and only, in my opinion, I find it very distracting to have the background music playing, especially in this video it became irritating as it was so loud. Maybe it's just an age thing!! I'm 60 haha... Apart from that, I like the relaxed style of your video presentation. I switched from the "ReMarkable 2" over to the A5X and fine it so much better in many ways. So if you ever want to try out the ReMarkable2, I can loan it to you to do your own comparison. Keep up the excellent videos.
Thanks so much for the helpful feedback, Joseph, and kind comments! You are not the first person to mention the music, so I'll pay attention to that in the future! And yeah, would be delighted to receive a loan of your Remarkable when you are able. I'm based in the UK, though, which may cause problems?
I like the music, but don't like it either as background music. I want to concentrate on what the reviewer is saying. You could fade in and fade out the music on the cut-overs. Other than that, leave it out.
Great video. Really showcased the various functions. Thanks for showing the OCR and email capabilities. It did a great job recognising your writing. Ok, I think I'm going to take the plunge on this device... damn import taxes, grrrr. Oh yeah, as the others pointed out, please drop the music in future vids, as I'm a subscriber, and look forward to more of your content. Thanks for your video, Mr. Tilling.
You were wondering if Kindle narration worked using Bluetooth on the AX5. Mine works great. I have 6 books or so that have this feature, and I take advantage of it, yes, the A5X does this well with a Bluetooth speaker. I really like the A5X, as it's replaced my RM2, for my daily driver. It has more features, and in my opinion is a better PDF reader. I have a few PDF's that need extra contrast, and this device can add that extra contrast when needed, but the RM2 cannot. The writing " feel " is better on the RM2, but not by much. I also have the " Heart of Metal " pen like you do. Nice feature is the nib will never wear out. I really like that. I seen a few of your video's and I like them, keep up the good work. Thanks for doing this.
Thanks for your kind comment! Funnily enough I checked out the audiobook function yesterday, a few hours before your comment, and can see you are correct, of course! That's a real bonus. One day I'll try the RM2 for writing feel as I am curious.
I am really enjoying your videos. I am trying to be more minimalist when it comes to books. I am considering going back to school and would like to use this for digital books. I struggle with reading from screens and digital paper intrigues me. I still don't know what the capacity is for books. Could you give some insight on that? Also, I see how much you like this particular device. Does it really mimic paper?
Wow, so many devices you have. I myself have a lot according to my husband. 😊 But to me, I still lack a 10" inch like that supernote for notetaking esp during office meetings and annotations of pdfs. Now, I have a nova pro, papyr and and ipad 3. Love the papyr but I find that it is not ideal as I cannot use it well without a wifi and with the wifi, it drains the battery faster that I have to charge it daily. Guess it would just serve my collaboration usage. My nova pro I used for reading fiction books. I use it now as well as a notebook but I find writing on it very taxing and not satisfying hence my need of supernote or maybe remarkable. Hope it is a better writing experience than my nova pro.
I honestly can't remember what my minor issues were! The updates are regular and usually substantial. Were there any in particular you wanted to know about?
@@CTilling These were your gripes. th-cam.com/video/VY2niuRocw4/w-d-xo.html I found another video showing one of the updates made and as you noted, they were substantial, so that also tells me Ratta is looking to give a best experience possible. I'm in the search and it's between the reMarkable II and the SuperNote A5X, whereas from everything I've seen in terms of reviews, the A5X is checking a lot more boxes I have. Thanks for posting your reviews too btw!
moat things in Supernote is not working right... I had an A5 for many years now, and is never working properly ... is kind of sad.. they do not work it out well, they had really great ideas but after many years of use I see it never got taken care of, and all promises they gave me was for naught.
With the iPad, it’s not just technophobia-it’s the blasted eyestrain of the device. I’ve got an iPad Pro 13,” and while it’s great for entertainment, doing in-depth reading hurts my eyes. The difference I feel in my eyes when reading on the iPad vs. the Supernote is night and day.
I mean this in the most polite way possible--it's ironic that I'm trying to watch your video about a distraction-free device, but the music is so distracting, I can hardly pay attention to what you're saying 😒.
Dear Chris, You make wonderful videos..., but... this time the music did not work at all... If you use music in the future, please consider keeping it it 100% instrumental. Your voice is competing with the singer's.... it's (almost) unbearable. Thank you for your lovely work. Regards.
Please drop the music overlay

@@scottamolinari Thanks for the helpful feedback, m8a. I've dropped the music in the most recent videos
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SHIP TO UK?
Extremely poor choice of music and I'm in my thirties, so it has nothing to do with age... merely artistic discretion. I couldn't watch the video..

Enjoy the device when it arrives! I still use it daily!

Thank you for these videos!
Could you make one on how to sync Google drive to the supernote, or is that not yet able to be done?
Sadly it cannot be done, yet :(
Could you point me to some of the work in psychology on will power that you mention? Thanks
Sorry for a 5 month delay in response!! Kelly McGonigal summarises some of this stuff in ger popular level book, which I recommend.
@@CTilling No worries. Thanks for that I'll look it up. 👍

Are you getting software updates and are things improving from your "minor issues" from the first video?
I honestly can't remember what my minor issues were! The updates are regular and usually substantial. Were there any in particular you wanted to know about?

Eink reading in a 90s nightclub. 😅
🤣
The music is high

I can do all things through will power which strengthens me.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge!
Like your Videos because you show the device more from the user angel. But I would like your videos more without this background music. ;-)

I agree, the Supernote and Max Lumi are easier to use for reading!

Noted!
Thanks for the vid. Music is unnecessary
