Please consider Jack Kerouac's On The Road but specifically the "Original Scroll" version, it's glorious. Otherwise, I'd love to recommend Alan Watts - The Wisdom of Insecurity; Gabor Mate - In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts; Stephen Fry - The Liar. Thanks for all the content, the A6X2 is on my lap and I'm enjoying it every day!
I love the discworld series by Terry Pratchett. There's a lot of books in that series and they all sit around the very menagable 200-300 pages. Three body problem is good sci-fi.
Who is your favourite author ? Mine is Tolkien of course. Others think LOtR is just about fairies and goblins, I think it is the greatest, but each to their own. Read 100 pages and make up your own mind. My favourite living author is Janny Wurts who will publish the final volume in her Wars of Light and Shadow saga this year.
I'm returning the new Kindle paperwhite, as i thought i needed the light. I just clip on a book light that can go orange for night to remove blue light. For ebook, being able to use supernotes "digest" to highlight and then write a note on that highlight is priceless. I then export the notes to Quizlet app for my business ebooks. Kindle app lets you not only do Whisper Sync and the fan favorite "immersion reading", no kindle has the latter. Its not perfect but it allows me to run audible and change the pages and keep my eyes near where they need to be. Since i often daydream the current thought and lose track. Last but not least, A6X2 in landscape, writes like a A5 in portrait, but you can carry it anywhere. I hope people have, at least, half as much joy as i am lol. Cheers to no distractions!
Yep, agree with all of that! Cheers to you. Wouldn't it be amazing if you could highlight bits from your kindle reading and keep them in your digest?! I gest you could export your notes from the kindle app and add them in, but that would probably be a lengthy and frustrating work around. :-)
@@KitBetts-Masters I’m really hoping that could be possible somehow. I just got the A6x2 and I think it’s strange that I can “copy” what I’ve highlighted in the Kindle app and it causes a small message to appear saying it’s been copied to the clipboard, but there’s no way to paste text on the SN os, as far as I can tell. I’m not sure it’s even “copying” in the first place. I’m really loving the Nomad, but as a tool for writers it would be verrrrry useful to add text copy/paste functionality.
Can you make a more in-dept review about reading on the Supernote? I just can not find a good video. I mean the Kindle app is there, but I would like to see how I could open my already owned books. DRM books are not an issue, I always de-DRM my books (like what I bought from the google store for example). How does that look like in the Supernote app? How is the page turning, annotations, highlighting or underlining, etc. I could not find any Supernote device near to me to try it out. I have a Boox Mini C, and I enjoy reading on it, but I just realized that I do not use the color screen at all, and actually I just only write my diary and organizer on it besides reading. So I just do not need the functionality, and I heard many bad things about the Onyx company (bad customer service, cracking screen everywhere).
I waited years of my life to get into eink because I only knew of Kindle (oh the ignorance) and they were stuck on the 4th gen Paperwhite forever. All I wanted was warm white and USB C and they refused to budge for such a long time. Then I went crazy and bought all the devices starting August 2021. Well four anyway… Supernote would have to be one of the most obscure brands, but their X2 devices have shed that homemade feel, and look very refined. I hope they just bite the bullet and process taxes on their end for international shipping.
I know what you mean, it is another friction for many buyers, which just might turn them back from the brink of pressing the "pay now" button! Totally agree, this is a very refined model.
I’m trying not to use the light on the kindle. It might not be as bad as the mobile screen but I find it much more relaxing when I read with good illumination on a regular page… but it’s good that the option is there just in case I reallly need it…
My daughters got me into the Irish writers Claire Keegan and Sally Rooney. Keegan’s books are short (maybe count two as one?) but they are great, best quality fiction out there. I am retired and have made it a goal to read as many “classics” as I can. I have fallen in love with Tolstoy, Eliot, Cervantes and others but I don’t think they make good reading challenges. They should be read with care and enjoyed over time. One more nonfiction-Humanly Possible: Seven Hundred Years of Humanist Freethinking, Inquiry and Hope by Sarah Bakewell. A great book of history. (Retired means I have way too much time to answer these kind of questions)
Awesome, I will check out your two Irish writers and the Sarah Bakewell. Any titles you would recommend as a first intro to Keegan and Rooney? I'm also a big fan of Tolstoy, I've tried my best to read everything he wrote, I've read the big ones at least two times, and probably War and Peace 4 times, in total. I used to just flick it open and read wherever I would land, and I would just get sucked in and an hour or so later remember what I was supposed to be doing! I think probably Resurrection is objectively his best though. Also read a Cervantes and a bit of Eliot, but not masses! Many kind thanks for the recommendation.
@@KitBetts-Masters Keegan has a very small book of three short stories, So Late in the Day. It is an easy book to carry and read on commutes. Her book Small Things Like These was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. I hate recommending books but I love to hear what others think. (I kind of prefer Dostoevsky by the way.)
Cool, got those bought. I intend to revisit my progress and thoughts in live streams in the near future, so look out for that. (I like Dostoevsky, but for me I just find it so easy to slip into Tolstoy's voice, it's like effortless reading! Whereas Dostoevsky took me a while to get. I think I was too young when I first picked up "Crime and Punishment" and didn't get through it. I have since revisited it and enjoyed it very much. Oh, I loved "the White Guard", Bulgakov and "Life and Fate", Grossman. Other great Russian epics!) @@patrickkelley8079
Audiobooks are not “reading.” If you were learning maths for the first time, how much would you retain in your listened to it? If you were learning to code, how much would you keep by listening. Reading is different from listening to a narrative. You might as well just watch dialog heavy movies and call it a novella
I understand, I think I mentioned it is cheating a little. Call it consuming 104 books on a year if you like. (I've discussed somewhere how rewarding is different to listening, it's about the thinking time, you don't stop to think and apply to your own context so much when you listen. Although I do pause sometimes to think. Cheers!)
@@thedukeofdukers that’s “story time” for your child. It does not fulfill or substitute the cognitive functions performed while reading. Is TV is “reading” if you close your eyes?
@@liketheduck The TV is in essence a visual format for content and a loss of visual information would hinder the ability to engage with the content. The same is not true of a book. A more apt comparison would be radio, which hosts a variety of programs that can engage listeners intellectually.
The contrast on the kindle scribe screen is excellent. Would be great to see a contrast comparison across the devices and boox. Is the kindle scribe eink screen exclusive to Amazon? - in hopeful for other manufacturers to use this instead of the deeper grey screens. Thanks for the great videos.
Yeah, I think that seems to still be exclusive to Amazon. There is one other brand which has a device with the even newer Carta 1300 300ppi screen, which has even blacker blacks I believe, but that is currently not in any device for the western market.
I don't get it. The title ire "reading" on Supernote but there is typing, there is speed read performance, there is switch between notes, but there is not one single page flipping demo of how it is of the actual "READING" on it in this video. And this situation is so common in all the review video of E-ink devices, they talk about everything, the size, hand held, materials, all kind of functions, but so few of them demon the "reading" - FLIPPING SOME PAGES which is a big part of the real usage of e-ink devices.
Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman (if you haven't already it) Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer How do you live by Genzaburo Yoshino Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones All Systems Red by Martha Wells (The Murderbot Series) Hope you are able to read anyone of them and they are to your taste! Love all your videos!
Hi there, I am reading on my tolino shine, which has a wonderful paper colour without the front light, which I do like to use when I am camping, saves putting any extra lights on. Looking at your video, the screen on the supernote seems very white indeed, more like a blue tint and that would bother me I think. So the question is, does it just seem that way, or can that be altered at all? Thanks for all your work on these "ink" devices.☺
I was thinking about changing my old trusty loving boox nova air but wanted something simpler than boox. Was thinking of getting supernote a6 size (whichever model is available now for cheap) but was concerned about reading experience as I read quite a lot pdfs and also use kindle app. My concern about kindle app is gone with your video. But still wondering how the pdf reading experience is? Or epub too without on kindle app, can I mark epubs on supernote if I sideload them? Is there any option for wireless transfer? Most videos are about writing but couldn't find much about reading on supernote. Backlight is not a fact for me as I use a book lamp even with my boox.
@@KitBetts-Masters Digital Minimalism first, to wake you up to how to break free from social media. Deep Work second, he really hones in on how to create good habits to actually do deep, focused work. Both books are good medicine to read a couple of times a year.
@@KitBetts-Masters He doesn't bash you for social media use, he just wakes you up to what it really is. Side note: I'm retired USAF and was stationed at RAF Lakenheath for 4 years...one of my favorite assignments. My wife and toddler at the time met Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip in Bury St. Edmunds. I'm nerding out that you actually replied. LOL! 🤓
If "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus" counts as 50 books, I'm at a good point. Read (and understand) it in 11 days has been the greatest challenge of my new year
I can recommend the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn. Great books (especially the Audible narration) and would add 16 to your list. My A6X2 arrived today, I have not put the Kindle App on yet, might drop in a uSD card first. One thing to note, the HOM2 pens do not work with other EMR tablets now. I was a bit disappointed, was hoping to use on a Galaxy Tab S8 with Note View Cover; will try some titanium nibs instead...
Yeah, they do work but it is not recommended as the nib is so hard that it will scratch other screen than the feelwrite. Samsung always pop up and say "no, use the S Pen!" I don't know if there is a way to get around that. Thanks for the recommendation!
I tried to see if the A6X2 in landscape mode would be good for writing. And it's great. Same size as the A5 in portrait. Already have a few dozen pages in it. Finally a true secure journal. Cheers!
I can recommend "Heaven and Hell" by Immanuel Swedenborg printed in 1758. It is a detailed account of what heaven and hell are like and who goes to both of them by someone who claims that he was able to daily go in and out of them for 25 years. Fascinating. It all makes a lot of sense and ties in very closely with the Bible.
I don't think you can get around the fact that for reading, the Kindle reigns as king but regarding the front light we might ask of the Boox Note Air... _'Can you get by without a front light?'_
For book recommendations, if you haven't yet read it I highly recommend A man called Ove by Fredrik Backman, one of the most moving books I've ever read. if you do choose this book i would suggest reading it somewhere on your own, certainly not out in public. You might want to try the muderbot diaries by Martha Wells, these are shorter books i think there are six of them at the moment, they're scifi, ive only read the first one, it was not what i was expecting. if your not ruling out longer books then i recommend the name of the wind. the lies of locke lamora. assassins apprentice. Jade City. and im sure your well familiar with terry pratchet's discworld
You're welcome. I could recommend hundreds of books if you need any more. Just a note: you should read The Rithmatist and not listen to it, if possible. It has detailed diagrams that really enhance the story. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks bud, yeah, I have that link in description also for you. With kind thanks for your support. I think that you will enjoy that if you are looking for a reading focused tablet. However, if you are looking for powerful note taking features I might recommend holding out for the stock to come in for the supernote. Kindle is a great price though and certainly a good entry to e-ink and a good stop gap!
I think it is just the level of the content. Of course some podcasts are very well researched and written , but few have been planned out and as carefully edited as a book. Also, if I am wanting to read a classic it's a good way to just consume some content.
