As a minimalist traveler who loves tech, this is most definitely a product i'm most excited to take on travels in 2024. The Remarkable 2 Paper Tablet actually surprised me on so many productivity, fun of use levels I didn't see coming. Can't wait to read books, journal, and stay productive while traveling.

Hey crew! Let us know if you'd ever consider trading your journals and books for this Remarkable tablet. Also whenever I say "this year" I mean my use of it in 2023! * We've been surprised how much we are loving it!*

I also have the Staedtler Noris Classic (no eraser) besides the jumbo but i guess my hands got bigger and found it too thin. You're spot on, the jumbo felt like a ball point pen while the RM plus makes sound like a pencil. I just hope the RM2 has more than 8gb, if you're heavy on notes that will fill up pretty fast. Thanks for the vid. I also hope they can add more pen selection, but for now calligraphy is my favorite.

Good vid and production quality! I'd recommend trying out the metallic tips if you want to get it feeling more like a pen and don't want to worry about changing the tips constantly. I'm putting out a rM3 wishlist vid today, huge fan of the remarkable series ... I've been a day 1 user. Also a quick tip, tapping with two fingers or three triggers an undo or redo, very useful! Also 3:22 I have the craft keyboard too :) Have you considered the type folio for you workflow?

I did think about the Type Folio but because its more weight when traveling, and I already carry my laptop it didnt seem worth it!

I really enjoy my remarkable! It's great for meeting notes and taking notes along the way on a project at work, whilst keeping it all organised in the respective folders. My desk is so clean now :) Request: you mentioned around 6:50 that you use it to import notes/doodles into your videos. Could you do a tutorial of that, please? :)

Love my remarkable so much! Great video. :) I use both the regular case and the keyboard case - both are great. I do travel with a Kindle and my iPhone as well, because the Kindle is much better for digital reading. The remarkable is also great for uploading musical scores & marking them up for practice. I also use it as an educator and researcher.

it's a cool device. I had the gen 1, but decided to upgrade to a Kindle Scribe instead of remarkable 2. I think the Scribe is catching up to the writing capabilities of remarkable. The few things missing at this point are the gesture shortcuts and the zooming in/infinite page size. I'm not a heavy reader as well, but the Scribe is just so optimized for digital books that it even integrates with the public library. So I end up reading a lot more because of it. I would recommend the Scribe over the Remarkable for traveling because of it. Being able to bring your entire book collection with you on the go is just hard to beat.

Love that! & can totally see how the Scribe can better suit some people’s preferences. I’ve been using my Library access to ebooks too (so cool they’ve developed that) and I just convert them and drop them onto the Rm2 through their desktop app. Hasn’t been too hard!

It is an awesome size for travel, I take it with me for work and travel all the time. I’m a professional and college student and it works perfect rather at work, the corporate setting or sitting at the park. I have both the rM2, which is my primary digital device and notebook replacement and the SN A5X as a secondary device. I’ve had my device for three years as well. People mentions the product is three years old and jumped on the SN, but didn’t pay attention that SN only changed their product to meet the future requirements of the EU and change of some of the insides but also said they are a creating a product that doesn’t need to be updated meaning i.e., they don’t plan on updating their products either but to be long standing products like the rM. Its doesn’t necessary need to be updated because it does what it is designed to do. We are so used to Apple updating it products thus creating a mentality that we have to have the greatest and latest tech. These are designed to last for many years and bring awareness for people how they are influenced and desire to be in the majority with the latest and greatest technology vs. mastering organization and reducing distractions.

As a student myself, I've been doubting if I should buy it or not. The product looks great and I'd love to use it for studying purpose. But given the fact that it is not as multifunctional as I would like (e.g. no color display), the price for the tablet and the pencil is a bit out of my budget range. If they were to include a pencil (be it the non-pro pencil) with a purchase of the Remarkable 2 tablet, I would definitely get one.

While it's a lot more expensive than the Staedtler, if you have a Samsung S Pen from a tablet, that works on the rM2 as well (it doesn't have an "eraser", but I think the eraser marquee tool is infinitely better than a regular eraser anyway). There's also a 3rd party software called "reMarkable Connection Utility" that makes moving around documents and customizing the device a lot easier. I found it difficult to get used to a tablet that has such a "limited" number of uses, but it's definitely one of its strengths, not a weakness.

Thank you. May I ask you please... can you copy text from an e-book and paste it into a notebook? Also, does the Remarkable allow a split screen, where you can have an e-book and notebook opened side by side? I currently have the Scribe, which I love, but these features are missing. Thank you again!
@gravel.travel
@gravel.travel 5 ай бұрын
To my knowledge you cannot copy and paste text from a book, and also there is no split screen option for notebook/book. You CAN add a note page to write on/take notes on inside of a book or PDF you're reading and then export that if you'd like. Those would be cool, but since its notes focused and not reading focused I see why they don't have it.

Sadly it didn’t! Apparently the design of the RM marker nib needs to sit a certain amount inside the stylus to work so it was inaccurate writing on screen. In the meantime, I got a LAMY al-star and the RM nib works flawlessly in there

Tout TOUT est à revoir dans l'OS c'est une catastrophe par rapport à un iPad ! je pense que je ne la garderai pas longtemps si l'OS ne s'améliore pas radicalement !

I am not sure if it is a good size for travel. I think a 7.8" is better. I have just bought Supernote A6X2 after using Remarkable 2. The only reason I returned Remarkable 2 was that the product is 3 years old and they'll be pushing out a new one soon. Also some of my PDF files did not load and were sluggish.
