Hi Kit, I have a question about e-ink tablets for a specific use case and would love your expert opinion. I'm a university student in accounting currently using an iPad 10th Gen and considering an upgrade. While the iPad serves well for note-taking and e-reading, I'm exploring e-ink tablets for a more focused experience. My key needs are: 1) eBook purchasing/sideloading and reading, 2) Annotating PDFs, eBooks, and Word documents, 3) Advanced note-taking. I'm considering either a combination of the Kindle Scribe & Remarkable 2 or the Onyx Boox Note Air 3C. Which would you recommend for these tasks, or perhaps a better alternative to those two options? I'm looking for a device that complements, rather than replaces, my iPad. P.S. - Your audience might find a video comparing these options (Kindle Scribe & Remarkable 2 vs. Onyx Boox Note Air 3C) for such tasks very helpful. Thanks a lot, and I appreciate your content!
Yeah, that's a tricky one. You can't purchase books on remarkable, so TBH, I would probably rule that one out. As you say, you already have and plan to continue using the iPad. So I don't think you NEED the extra android features of Boox. The Boox is the best for the use case you describe, but I honestly be think you might be best just to go with the Kindle scribe and see how that goes. That way you'll be able to send to kindle from word, have access to a killer library, annotate pdfs and have a nice note taking experience all with a crisp screen and excellent battery life. The only thing you'd miss is the advanced note taking features. The NA3C would have that, but I'd imagine you getting annoyed at having another thing to manage the battery of, and in any case end up doing productivity things on your iPad! The other big plus of scribe is the price, so I think that makes it the low jeopardy choice!
Kit, I greatly appreciate your reviews and content. My question is around pens. I am super new to the E-Ink space, meaning looking for my first device. I really think I have settled upon SN for my first experience with E-Ink and what I feel my use case will be. I am not an artist, note taking and writing (with some sprinkled in rough sketch's) would be my main needs. I get devices and pens etc. are all really subjective, but based on your experience (and anyone in the community as well) what do you recommend as a launching point for someone's first one or two pens. Thank you in advance.
Hi Kit - thanks for detailed videos. I watched your all videos but could not see how we can see the notes in laptop. How do we export the texted notes ? By email ? Or does Supernote has a website that I can log in to see my all notes ? ( sorry if you explained already )
*At **01:22** you dropped the pen on the screen of the A6X2.* Out of interest... and I'm asking in complete ignorance here not having any other tablet than the A5X, _'might'_ _[not definitely]_ that drop have cracked the screen of a Remarkable, Bigme or Boox device?
A6X2 writing feel is significantly worse than A5X. The new screen loses feel of pen on paper of A5X and does not feel like pencil on paper. It is much more resistant to pen strokes.
Hiya, yeah, I think early on in the video I say something about how the A6X2 wasn't really meant to totally supersede and make the previous model obsolete. That was my meaning for the title. I hope you found the comparison useful in any case. I have quite a bit more content on the device if you want to dive into why it has been surprisingly even better than we expected!
After a lot of testing I found myself enjoying the Lami together with titanium nibs most. Very nice writing feel for me.
Awesome information... Is it rude that I'm jealous of your hair .. ? Have an awesome weekend

Is Supernote A5X2 also coming soon?
Do you know anything about why A5 is "out of stock" on their website?
thanks.
The pre order will start at febr.
Hi Kit - thanks for detailed videos. I watched your all videos but could not see how we can see the notes in laptop. How do we export the texted notes ? By email ? Or does Supernote has a website that I can log in to see my all notes ? ( sorry if you explained already )
what is the marker you were using ? kinda annoyed with the HOM2 pen or the regular pen.
*At **01:22** you dropped the pen on the screen of the A6X2.*
Out of interest... and I'm asking in complete ignorance here not having any other tablet than the A5X, _'might'_ _[not definitely]_ that drop have cracked the screen of a Remarkable, Bigme or Boox device?
It probably wouldn’t the heart of metal pen doesn’t weight *that* much. I’d be surprised if any of them would break.
@@nutellakinesis Thanks for the reply, I don't have a Boox or ReMarkable and just wondered how fragile their glass screens were if fragile at all.
A6X2 writing feel is significantly worse than A5X. The new screen loses feel of pen on paper of A5X and does not feel like pencil on paper. It is much more resistant to pen strokes.
Not sure what part of this video demonstrated the X2 being "THIS GOOD". The title seems unnecessarily clickbaity to the point of misleading.

The Supernote A6X2 does make several improvements to its predecessor. Just because you disagree doesn’t make it clickbaity.
