I was distracted by my phone, much too often, so I created a system to fix that... for good. Watch the new vid here: th-cam.com/video/yYB6akb85XI/w-d-xo.html
Hello Ryan Kelly, how can the brand contact you for a collaboration?
I have made exactly 1 comment entry on any TH-cam video in my entire 41 years of life, and it is this one. I have no idea who this guy is, but this video was phenomenal and so well edited. I was up in the air about buying a Remarkable, and now I am down on the ground(?) about it. 100% decided I am buying it. Run the Joules, I am subscribing to your list just because this was so damn entertaining and informative. Hell, I may watch this again.
he gets paid for this
I love my remarkable!!!! Total game changer.
@@MichellePratttell me why!
@@TheFaro2011 I'm good at taking notes but don't always read them back. It's great not having to flick through pages of a notepad to find out what I recorded in a meeting a month ago. I like to have a digital record of notes that I can read anywhere. I can also leave my RM at home and review my notes on the app. At the same time, I recall info (and think better) when notes are written in my own hand.
imagine making videos so high quality that you have to explain this is not sponsored
No BS, this is by far the best youtube video I've seen detailing a product and it's intended use. Great production values and a sense of humour. Thank you!
There are a lot of good reviews out there, but this is, by far, the best video I've seen on the Remarkable. Thank you for blending the features while sharing HOW you use it.
Hundreds of horrific reviews on their Instagram
@@renatasoares5668It is pretty bad. I have one. I regret it. The thing starts writing before the pen even touches the screen leaving you not even able to read what you write. Customer support is the absolute worst. They're full of excuses. I've had mine for 2 years and with every software upgdate it gets even worse.
agree
Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.
Totally. I purchased RM2 after watching this review. He is a star!🌟
I’ve got one. I had notepads everywhere. Loads of them. One for study, one for general stuff, a diary etc. the remarkable does everything you need if you are replacing writing on paper. It’s absolutely perfect.
Would you say it'd replace/surpass a kindle? I hate kindle's minuscule screen
can you read book? and how to get Ebooks? I have many book in kindle, can I transfer? or not at all?
@@ivanzq21 There is no access to kindle books. Epub and PDF work.
I’m pretty you can only get PDFs and Epub books, but not kindle. Other than that, not sure
@@ivanzq21you can upload epub or pdf from the my.remarkable site or from google drive
Yeah. I got mine at the start of the year. Really changed the way I journal and plan my time. I use the Alastair method for planning and follow up my weeks. I usually convert my hand written text and send it into Journey which is my journaling platform. A bit old school in a good way. There isn't a lot of tech that puts a smile on my face. This one does.
And thank you for your video. I learned that if I number the folders I get them arranged in the way I want. Thanks again!
"Ha en bra dag", as we say here in Sweden! 🙂
As a trucker, I find my device to be a lifesaver for managing the tedious paperwork trail that comes with the job. Additionally, as someone with autism, it serves as a cloud for my mind, allowing me to easily access all of my ebooks and utilize memory techniques such as mnemonics, the major system, and memory palaces. This not only saves me time but also makes it easier on my cognitive load. Overall, I love my device for its ability to simplify my life in so many ways.
Thank you for such an interesting video. I have been struggling to figure out a workflow for this to replace my chaotic paper planning. You have helped so much and I have spent a very happy evening drawing planning pages. (and, of course, not done anything on those lists).
I was here for a pure tech review, but it turned out to be an inspiring self-management lesson! Well done!
Thank you. I've watched a ton of reviews in my life on so many different products. Normally I make it 15% into the review before I start fast forwarding or even turning it off. This one I enlarged, sat back, and watched from start to finish. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I haven't finished this video, and I'm impressed with your style and information. This a rare for me, so I needed to tell you. I started out looking for more info on digital tablets. I discovered a lot more. Thank you. I'm looking forward to following you.
Amazing review. tech reviews are notorious for being repetitive across videos. I wish more people shared their personal experience as you did. Keep up the amazing work!
Remarkable 2 really is the best. Also the fact that you have access to all the files on the remarkable and on the computer and on your phone with the cloud sync is a game-changer. Having the ability to have many folder, pds, notebooks and more in one place helps so much with multiproject management. You can also do sub-folders as well. So easy to move between folders. Or make duplicates. Also remember you can activate a security code on your remarkable, like a screen lock you would have on your phone. A 4-digit code you choose, to give you some peace of mind that no one else can access your information. :) Great review.
This by far is the most accurate and useful review that I ever see on a product.
I received the tablet today as a gift and I’ll get the best of it thanks to your detail explanation !
Thanks for sharing !!
Got my recently. For someone who loves to draw/doodle/write, practice doing this, and hate having to start over/bring and waste paper, this thing is beyond perfect.
Thank you for this. Love your authentic and vulnerable style. Now waiting for ReMarkable 2 to arrive and starting to really look forward to it.
This was a fantastic video! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Your on-screen manner, even the "Dad Joke" (" I'll show you a NOID!") was just wonderful. I especially liked the great organizational and "mind management" tips at the end. I subscribed I look forward to other videos from you.
thanks to the remarkable 2, I found your channel. Thankful for that. You explained everything so smooth, and nicely even giving us your personal experience. I will definitely check you all the channels and videos. Keep going 😊
Honestly this is, by far, the best video I've seen plus the features on HOW you use it. thanks amazing really incredible
Love it. I hear you so much, and am waiting for mine now and you just made me feel so much better for doing it.
Really nice video production and product review. You came across as a genuine good friend that one has known for a long time, with honest opinions, not trying to sell you anything.
Great video and share - seeing the imperfect, and yet how it had such a huge effect. Much appreciated
Thank you so much for this review! It's really the kind of review I've been looking for! It was nice to see how you use it and what you like about it and not just features.
Run the Joules, Thank you! I'm pretty sure that YOU (through this brilliant video) have changed MY life! The Remarkable is on its way. Loved seeing how you have put it to use. Truly, fab job! Cheers!
This video and review is just… wow…. Amazing job! And yeah you totally convinced me 😄
Great Review! I am still in the research and comparison stage, but I really appreciate your style, showing exactly HOW you use the Remarkable, THIS kind of review is exactly what I have spent way too many hours looking for. You answered many questions I did not even realize I had. Thanks!
Absolutely love mine I purchased to organise myself for uni. I've picked up a couple of new tricks now, thank you!
My wife and I print recipes to PDF and load to the Remarkable. We then mark up as we adjust and add notes. It is really helpful as I experiment with cheese making recipes.
The aesthetic quality of this video is so good it’s almost annoying. Fantastic work and the content was really, really great as well.
Amazing review. most other reviews forget about the main experience and just talk features and specs. I needed to see it in action, and you did a fantastic job. thanks.
Thanks man. I like how you showed us your actual usage and how it helped you in life. It gave me a different perspective.
Love your review! So need one of these for my biz and life.
Thank you for this very thorough review. I currently own a Kindle Scribe, which I absolutely love for reading and taking notes in books and occasionally using the notebook feature. However, I'm in the market for a more sophisticated device to replace all of my notebooks. I love to write things down, but I'm compiling items in my small space. I really like the device's design, and now there is a folio feature for typing. I am excited to make a purchase soon.
I bought my reMarkable before it was even finished, and have not regretted it (still use the first model). I also have a racing mind and write "morning pages" all day long, as needed; it calms me down and helps me regain focus. Also it works for epub and pdf, which I use a lot in both work an leisure. I like its limitations, why do we need every device to do it all? No one thinks a mobile phone and a computer is redundency, they are both good for different things. And the reMarkable has its place in the gadget park.
This convinced me. I knew this tablet was perfect for me. I have so many running lists, journal entries, and notes. I need to organize my daily random thoughts and notes for long-term planning in one location. This table seems like the perfect fit
OMG man, your mind is like a furious beast, but totally tamed and focused. Congrats for your work, it's was an amazing experience. The review is also one of the best routine advice on freaking entire TH-cam I have seen in years.
I came for a personal review and came away with personal help tips... BOTH are GREATLY appreciated! :D ... My buddy stopped over and showed me the Remarkable 2 and I don't have one yet, but I WANT ONE now! This review has been SUPER informative as well as REAL vs, like you had said at the beginning, "paid ad". I love the personal touches on this. Makes me want this MORE haha. Thank you for the information, being real and the time spent on this review!
The remarkable is worth every penny. Btw, currently starts at $$298 USD. I have been using since the first version came out. Increased my productivity, allows spontaneous drawing and focus. It is a huge plus that it doesn’t surf the web etc. it’s for writing and drawing period. Mountains of legal pads are now all in this device.
Thank you. I thought I was missing the correct product since it was much less than $1000.
Yes I also used remarkable 1 and I buy it for $450 with pen and case 5 years ago and this is probably the best purchase I've done so far... Everybody asked me why buying a tablet without multimedia function and apps, I can always answer that "I already had my phone and laptop for that purpose"... And the pen tip is actually pretty cheap, as for now it cost only $34 and you'll got 25 spare tips... Of course it's not as smooth as ipad or samsung tablet, but at least it didn't cost me any anxiety on battery life and software update... I think everyone should give it a try...
That was a really cool video (I usually struggle to get past the 5min mark on YT...). I have already ordered one after two years of procrastinating (it IS expensive isn't it?) , and watching this video while waiting for delivery confirmed pretty much that this will be just perfect for me.... thanks, very entertaining, enjoyed it!
Hi Jules,
Very unique, calm and full of passion video. True. You did a very honest and more practical intuitive video than the others videos around on YT. This is exactly the reMarkable 2 e-ink tablet is. Thank You. God bless you and your family.
Morning Pages ..... Brilliant!
I really enjoyed this review. Even though I purchased my Remarkable 2 over a year ago, your review gave me some great tips on how to continue to streamline my digital paper life!! TY
Great video on Remarkable! Thanks for sharing and making it “how” it’s useful. Not just a generic review. Much appreciated! Thx
New to your channel review:
Exceptional quality mate, I’ve already bought the product moments before stumbling across your vid and still finding myself watch your review twice, for the art aspect. Well done.
Will check out your other vids, thanks for putting in the extra hard yards.
Tim 🇦🇺
This was extremely helpful! Thank you for taking the time to share your insights. I'm sold.
Reassuring to hear, can’t wait until it arrives! Looking forward to writing mind-maps, note taking, reading, and editing pdfs on such a gorgeous device.
I ordered the type-folio so I have the option to type out fast thoughts and then edit into mind-maps with the pencil
I'm assuming you've gotten it at this point. How is it working as far as mind-maps go? I feel like the nature of it not expanding horizontally forever and only expanding vertically is very restrictive for mind-maps. What's your experience?
I've had mine about three weeks and I love it! I need it for shoots and so far, it's been so practical.
I LOVE this video. Thank you. I really enjoyed watching it
This was amazing. Thank you so very much!
Dude, you rock ! Informative and entertaining
Great video. You have hit the nail on the head. I have the daily battle of trying to justify to people why I have spent so much on e-ink tablets when they do nothing!
I must say your one frustration was the same for me…no books… but with its latest update I think the Kindle Scribe has finally hit the sweet spot.
Wonderful review Sir, good attention to detail. I am not ready to buy one yet but hopefully soon. I believe this will be REmarkable!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your video!! Great great visual and sound. Great tips on how you reMarkable to organize your life. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Thanks!! I have been thinking about this for 6 months. your review and advice has convinced me to buy one.
So sick of monthly subscriptions.
Me too, I pay 29.99/month to subscride-out and it blocks all subscription services
This sounds like it's absolutely true@@electrifiedspam
This was a fantastic review, thank you!
Your review of the reMarkable 2 is absolutely inspiring. I used to write morning pages and i hope that i will be satisfied buying and using the most expensive block of paper i‘ve ever heard of. Best wishes from Germany.
By far the best video review I've seen for any product in recent times. No marketing and feature comparison but clear & pure practical advise for anyone considering an e-ink tablet. 👌
Amazing production. You’re great. Subscribed.
This video was perfect for me and finally helped me make my mind up on an e-ink tablet! Thank you so much!
Loved the video bro, thanks a lot. That template, about daily planning, I'm definitely implementing that in my routine!
such a good and helpful review! Keep rocking the Canadian Tuxedo!
This has been the best review. SOLD! Ordered one and can’t wait. With so much going on in my head I can’t use my phone to write anything up as I get distracted and forget. This remarkable looks amazing. Thank you for this review.
Love the morning pages thing! I just ordered my Remarkable 2 and will DEFINITELY be trying that!!! 😍🤩 Thank you
Thank you for making an instructional video where I am not bored or looking at the time or skipping bits. You have aesthetic super powers :) Now looking forward to more from your channel!
Man that was a great video and I needed to see this, because I am seriously thinking of buy this instead of a iPad. Thanks for making a great detailed video and your ideas for thoughts and scheduling. Thank you
Thank you for the wonderful review! Just one question, does the lack of backlight/ability to adjust lighting affect how you use the Remarkable?
This is video sold me. I'm starting grad school in the fall and my biggest problem in undergrad was misplacing my notebooks for class. Or I'd grab my maths book for my history class so by the end of the week my class notes would be in scattered across like four different composition notebooks. And I got sooooo distracted trying to take notes on my laptop
Your sense of humour and general attitude has earned you another subscriber!
this is a super cool video and i love the good this tablet has done for you! i'm getting an ipad pro, and knew that clicking on this video, but i still enjoyed your thoroughness. subscribed!
After having watched several paper tablet reviews across youtube, you convinced me to finally buy the ReMarkable 2. Thank you so much for this honest and well produced video, and for posting the friends & family link in the video description! The only one left to convince now, is the TH-cam Algorithm that keeps on showing me ReMarkable 2 ads :D
Your review made me to buy it, and I'm really loving! thx!
I ran into this video while researching Remarkable. I just want you to know that there is something so awesome about about you and your energy. Hard to put into words.
I like the morning pages suggestion, thanks :]
I've had my remarkable2 for 2 yrs. I love opening it, writing in it. Really helps keep this busy mind organized too. 👌🏽 🎉
My Man. I've been following The Loam Ranger (TLR)for a coule years and have been meaning to come over here for awhile, as you occasionally mention it "over there." Long story short, I am 1 year into concussion recovery and doing a lot of really hard work on my concussed ADD/executive functionally challenged brain. I am a note taker and was looking into (for like the 4th time) a writing tablet when I saw this review. THANK YOU. I'm in. This was exactly what I have been looking for for reviews on these darn things. You answered ALL my questions and the clincher is this: I already trust you implicitly. Your Work on TLR is honest, thorough, and so freaking well produced... (and to be honest, just like your desk... clean lines, free of distractions, and very efficient in an artful way).... and that's talking about BIKES (and trails and travel etc etc). Thanks for your honest and dilligence in putting out such high quality and RELEVANT pieces. Mahalo from New Hampshire, USA. (If you are ever out this way with the crew or fam, let's ride bikes!)
This is fantastic, it's exactly how I feel. I will use it often in sharing what I think about it. No need for me to try something like this - it's already done. My mind is totally less cluttered.
I enjoyed this video not just for the product review I came her for but for all the other thought organization techniques.
Thanks for this review. This is a beatiful device, which I'd probably shell out for if my job involved writing everyday. As it is, your review helped me realise that I can still achieve what I need to with Evernote and Rocketbook (even morning pages, which I will now borrow, thanks). But I'll definitely keep this review in mind if my work shifts enough to make it worth the price for me.
LOVED the A NOID joke! I have been on the fence to get a tablet like this one you are showing on the video and you helped me long way to make a decision. Bests regards from a Venezuelan viewer in Panama!
Thank you! I have been looking for a digital notebook for my bullet journal.
I really like your morning pages idea!
I totally agree. Best present I ever bought myself!! I've not used a paper pad in the last 3 years and everything I've written or sketched is available in one app across 3 different platforms. I have never once regretted the purchase!
I'm wanting one now just so I can jot down and map out how I want to organize things on the device itself. I have a pencil and paper right now trying to think of how I can organize folders and things for work. Great video btw. I loved it.
I bought the remarkable based off of this video (and some side reviews) and I am hugely happy to have done that. Super great recommendation and in-love with the thing. It makes writing and sketching and organising myself fun and exciting ... like I look forward to it :)
Glad I could help!
Why did you pick it over Supernote?
Amazing job! Bravo. You are a gifted storyteller. I use a Microsoft Due for my daily device, in the way that you utilize your Remarkable. I'm beyond grateful for the opportunities technology gives us. I am going to incorporate some of your tips into my daily routine. Thank you for sharing your tools and tips.
Great video and I echo each of your comments. I need to take copious notes and the touch-sensitivity allows me to even make shorthand notes although this isn’t foolproof - works well enough for me though. Text conversion is pretty good but I don’t use it a lot but it has been very useful at times. I truly enjoy using my ReMarkable and find it often draws comments from the people I meet.
i love your review! it's detailed and well done. please do more and more diverse reviews. your content quality is pretty decent.
This is very interesting. I really love e-ink stuff. I recently started using the Paper app on iPad and it reminds me a lot of this kind of workflow. It's very limited and those constraints help a lot! Too many things these days have lots of features, and I don't want to waste time tinkering. I do wish there was a colour e-ink version of the Paper app as a tablet, that would be ideal...
This is a very well made video!!
You may find the Boox Tab Ultra C worth a look. Though it is more feature rich, it does really get out of the way once you’ve got a workflow established after the learning curve.
@@goldengibson1958 ooh, thanks!
A.D.D. - Life saver. Mine changed everything about the way I write.
I can 100% agree.
This is the best product review i've ever seen. Bravo!
great video and loved your perspective unlike the other content that is out ther
Thank you. I just bought a kindle scribe and you have given me several ideas on how to really get the most out of it. Good video, I wish I could like it twice.
I came here to listen to the review of the tablet and was completely shocked at how you detailed your use for the Morning Pages, Running todo list and Daily planner. These are exactly the top 3 things that i am looking to improve upon for myself and researching paper tablets to help me accomplish.
Got one on the way, this review helped a bunch 👍🏻
This review is so much more than a review. I learned so much, I even laughed! Thank you for the high quality video and ideas.
This was super well done and helpful. New remarkable user, it was a gift, a,d this was helpful! Thank you.
This is worth subscribing. Thank you for your work. 👍
Oh wow! Your video was like a guiding light in my e-ink tablet quest. I've been binge-watching reviews like a true e-ink tablet aficionado, and I was initially leaning towards the Supernote. But your video, my friend, struck a chord with me! That bit about the thinner tablet being easier to write on was a total game-changer - it's not something I had even considered. Thanks to your entertaining and informative review, the scales have tipped in favor of the reMarkable 2. Kudos for helping me make up my mind!
I can say the the thickness of the Supernote is definitely not a big deal. Most of my notebooks have been thicker than the Supernote (before I switched to it) and it just feels normal, like a thin-ish notebook. The feeling of the ceramic nib is simply un-matched and I wouldn't switch my A5X (and A6X) for anything else.
I just bought the Supernote Ax5 today and can’t wait to get it@!
Great Review.
Excellent channel name! 💯
Thanks for this honest and thorough review of the Remarkable 2 tablet. I have been on the fence for some time but I think you just sealed the deal for me. I would love to know if the daily planner you showed towards the end is a template that you can import into the tablet or does the user need to create something like this from scratch? If there are template add ons to keep me from having to come up with my own would be icing on the tablet? haha Thanks again!
