The thing I love about the Remarkable is that it really feels like an extension of my laptop rather than being a separate device. The chrome extension and desktop app sync almost instantly. I've had so many devices that's sync function was unreliable. The Remarkable is so reliable that it's quicker and better than printing a document. I've now side loaded my ebooks to it and I am using it as my primary reading device. I love that I can actually annotate the books rather than just writing on little post it notes. (I also own the Scribe). I know others rave about the Boox devices but I've owned many Android tablets and the number of apps that let you use a stylus and are designed for a large screen are minimal. The only major complaint I have against the remarkable is that you can't search for handwriting. We're paying for a cloud subscription, and this should be included in the price.

@GaryLangEngr 13 дней назад

"Who should buy" 100%. Nailed it. You are exactly who they designed this for. Comparing it to paper is the *only* comparison that makes sense. It was the design center, according to their pre-success papers. Then again, you are a designer, so you know all about that

@Bossmachinecam 11 дней назад

I absolutely love my RM2. It’s exactly what you say. A great replacement for my paper journals. I use it everyday at work. I love the tactile feeling of writing and it sits next to my keyboard while I work. I grab it for all my meetings and just share my notes when done. I wavered about the price, but after buying it I would get another if I accidentally broke it. The google drive integration ticked the final box for me and ease of importing docs to sign and email.

@Rsmin 13 дней назад

Brandon, great video. Totally agree..I spent a year with the A5X and even purchased the A6X2. I love the Supernote and still do. But it was missing two things for me. Better synchronization and no color pens or highlights. I still have them but will probably sell the A6X2. I then tried the Boox Air 3c and found it was taking a lot of steps to do a few simple things I needed to do while writing, plus I could never get the Kindle App on mine to work. Yes it has the color pens and highlights but there were just too many distractions for me to concentrate on writing. I have a phone and android tablet for all that. I sent the Boox back. Then I heard the remarkable had color pens and highlights and I remember watching a bunch of your discussions on the remarkable. I just ordered it and received it a couple of weeks ago and I have found my sweet spot of a tablet. You are correct when you discuss use case. That's what everyone has to decide. Sorry for the long post, but bottom line my use case is that I teach, and for me to teach it helps me to write in different colors and highlights, plus it helps to move my writing around because while writing thoughts don't always come in the perfect sequence. So when I have everything the way I like it, I preview it on my computer, (which is almost instantaneous and in color) and if everything is the way I like it, I then print it out in color and teach from paper. After I teach, I throw the paper away but I always have a copy on my remarkable. The only thing that might make me change would be if they come out with the bigger color version of remarkable, then I wouldn't need to print to paper. Thanks for all you do on this channel.

@user-fy8tr3kn5i 6 дней назад

Thank you for your video. It helped me to narrow my expectations. Mostly because I only use my eink tablet for writing and creativity. But it's true that I miss a lot the colour option. Before my eink device, I wrote and used notebooks regularly, and I always carry a pack of colour pens (I still do carry them with me and a notebook). But using a e-ink tablet is so cool and nice feeling, knowing that everything is in there and reachable... So, if you are a creative that is extremely happy with the remarkable like experience... But you need colour to develop your work... Where should I be looking for? I really don't need all that connectivity and computer/phone apps... But I need at least some size for my notes to write and design on. Is the Tab Ultra C the only option? Would the Nova AirC be ok today? Could I use the Kobo Libra Colour? Thank you in advance for your time and help! Have a very nice week!

@harvey6resources167 13 дней назад

While I can see the break of flow state with the Boox device, I find that if you choose to use the Note Air 3 for reading and notes is does all of Remarkable and allows me not to carry a Kindle or my phone for the newspaper. A nice compromise for purchasing less devices.

@mzmel1 9 дней назад

Needing a subscription to take advantage of everything RM2 has to offer is what’s keeping me waiting for the new A5X2 coming hopefully end of year. In the meantime, my iPad will do just fine.

@lorient9201 12 дней назад

I have been using the Remarkable 2 for years. I do not recommend it for 2024; it is outdated for current needs. Yes, it is a note-taking device, but it is necessary to add color to the notes, and RM2 does not allow this. The RM2 software is easy to use, yes, but it is so simple that many necessary options are missing, and the software does not implement them. Also, it must be mentioned that to have certain document storage functionalities on the company's servers, a monthly subscription is necessary. How? Yes, if you do not pay every month, all your documents that you have not used in the last 50 days will be deleted from the cloud. The best thing about the RM2 is the writing feel, which is very good, but the very basic software, the lack of color, and the need to subscribe for certain functionalities, make it an outdated device.

@photovincent 9 дней назад

It’s the subscription model that put me off the thing even when new

@MrKlawUK 9 дней назад

the struggle I have is recollection and search. I think the Remarkable 2 still doesn’t allow for easy search of handwritten notes? Does it allow for search on the mobile app or desktop app (is there a desktop app/web app?) - if so that may be good enough, using the tablet mainly for the immediate notes.

@guilhermepietro7178 13 дней назад

I keep watching reviews but I keep going back to the remarkable 2. Even though It doesn't have a backlight, I want to buy a device for the sole purpose of replacing my notebooks for school/work, to have it next to me for note taking while reading physical books, and to make to do notes for myself. It is also important for me to keep the paper grippy feel, as I hate the feeling of writing on glass and would just go back to paper, also it need to be thin and light enough to fit on my computer bag or briefcase without adding much bulk to it with a long battery because I forget to charge my phone, much less an e-ink! I think it will be hard for me to find anything else other than the remarkable, I just wish they came out with the remarkable 3 already. Do you think I should wait for the Supernote A5X2 since it seems pretty close to launch, and it also checks most of my boxes??? I would love to hear your taught on it.

@BrandonKBoswell 13 дней назад

Either the reMarkable or Supernote sounds like a good fit. Supernote is probably “grippier” when reMarkable feels more like pencil on paper. A5X2 got delayed to the end of the year.

I was surprised to find that of all the options, I ultimately selected the Remarkable in 2024. Polished cloud support, EU privacy, honoring the GPL, and substantial likelihood of long-term support were all major deciding factors. Happy with it so far, though viable Google Docs collaboration and at-rest encryption would take the Remarkable to another level for professional work.

@BrandonKBoswell 13 дней назад

@@BrandonKBoswell I feel like the Drive integration is okay, but I can't comment/annotate Google Docs without first exporting them from Docs, so the comments aren't visible to co-workers. Encrypted storage feels like something reMarkable could more readily address. Today, it is my impression that a lost device could lead to the leaking of confidential documents stored on the device.

This is a fantastic breakdown of the Remarkable use case. It’s a like having a digital Moleskin or my personal favorite Shinola notebook. My company provides me an awful Dell laptop. I don’t use it much. I use an M1 IPad Pro, 12.9 for most of what I do. The remarkable is for clarity of thought. When I’m brainstorming. I also it to take notes when I’m in person or using my iPad for Video Meetings. The remarkable is the perfect size and has the best writing experience. It’s a notepad. That’s what I like, but the hardware is outpaced by the software. I doubt I’ll upgrade however. It’s a notebook. I will however be upgrading to the M4 IPad 13in.

I've been using a remarkable 2 for a year and a half for university, and it's almost perfect. I bought the keyboard case 3 months ago and it's even better than before. However, I find they're too slow to update the tablet, the last few updates were pretty useless to be honest (today's beta update which makes files prettier for example is the last thing I wanted to have as an update....). I've been asking the development team for months to add circles, which are absolutely essential for students like me. I've been asking for months to be able to change PDF note page templates which would take maximum 10 minutes to code for them, move pages in imported PDFs, copy and paste images (I know it can be difficult to code, but it can be done). Also, adding a green pen isn't unfeasible, and would be really cool. However, I really don't think they care what their users think in the long run. I'm pretty disappointed in them for that.

Price is a factor worth noting. I just recently bought a Kindle Scribe after spending some time shopping all of the options including the Remarkable 2.

What pisses me off the most about these devices is that everyone is just ok with the prices and the criticism is dismissed as "It's a niche product so of course it's expensive". That argument is just wrong. These aren't niche, they're expensive. The proof? If these things were affordable, wouldn't every student have one? Grade 1 all the way through college / university. Every tradesman, artist, professional, etc, etc. These things would be a multi billion dollar a year industry, if only eink (the company) weren't so incompetent / greedy. I don't blame the makers of these devices, I blame the company that makes the eink displays

I agree. The lack of competition on the screen development is a huge factor

Anyone on the fence, allow me to help you. Do you want to replace your $5 notebook with a $600+ tablet that is only capable of taking notes? If so, then these devices are for you. There is only one advantage to these devices and that is that it really does feel like writing on paper when you use their stylus'. And that the paper display is easier on the eyes. That's it. An Ipad is CHEAPER and does everything these do. It just doesn't give you the paper experience. Personally, I can't stand writing on paper and I'll never understand the desire to replicate it. To summarize, if you already have a tablet, you'd be spending an additional $600 to get a paper experience. If you don't already have a tablet, and want / need one, you'll be spending an additional $600 to get a paper experience...

He can support companies in which he enjoys using their product ❤️ it’s a recommendation. You don’t have to buy the remarkable. But this video is useful for people like me who are wondering if the moneys worth it. And he doesn’t glamorize or exaggerate the pros of the product. Rents due baby and affiliate links help the man pay rent. Nothing wrong with liking a product and making coin. Ya’ll are directing that energy at the wrong things.

@@BrandonKBoswell , 450$ for a b&w, very closed environment, eink device is a rip off. It is a venerable ancestor, they innovated once upon a time. Then, they screwed up with the subscription system. Then competition came with largely superior products. Onyx Air 3C or Tab C are NOT tablets with eink. They are next gen eink allowing truly integrated work: reading novel, technical papers or comics, annotations, taking notes in meeting, consulting excel price list, typing or correcting a Words or PPT document, casting the presentation on a screen and sharing the results with colleagues. Eink has gone beyond ereader and note taking. Remarkable 2 is frozen in this past and this is why I say NO. Now, if you keep having disconnected tasks in your work flow, buy Remarkable 2 !
