reMarkable Essentials Bundle - Leather Folio | reMarkable 2 Paper Tablet | Black and White 10.3'' Writing Tablet, Marker Plus Pen with Built-in Eraser and Book Folio Case in Black Premium Leather

The ReMarkable2 is making my life easier daily. I am still learning to use it and leverage the features it contains yet in a few short weeks it is making my work/side hustle/personal life easier. A few simple positives:It is simplistic. It does one thing and it does it well.It is distraction free.Basic usage is intuitive.Intermediate usage is pretty intuitive with a little guidance.I still need to dive into training videos to become a power user.I appreciated the packaging came in recyclable containers.The ability to write, erase, and move text is super simple.Organizing is easy once you understand the Folder/Notebook/Quick Sheets structure.I spent 3 days in a seminar recently. I was able to download the PDF notebook (over 200 pages of documents) into my ReMarkable and then write my notes on the document. I will upload the document back to Dropbox to save/print off later. I had the option of writing my notes on the document or using a Layer (think clear sheet) that I could write on and turn the 2nd layer off if I wanted to see the main document without my notes. That wasn't an issue for me. Later, I did have one page with checklists I needed to use 3 times so I chose to use the Layers for each use and then remove them when I didn't need it anymore.At work, I have a weekly meeting that traditionally has been one sheet of paper per week and then keeping up with each piece of paper as I needed to go back and review. With the Notebook feature, I now have those meeting notes going into one document that I will add to each week. It's easy to find and no lost pieces of paper. I also have a coaching practice and this allows me to keep notes on clients in one running document instead of multiples I must file and track.Two things for the creators to consider - first, it would be easier to read downloaded documents with a lighter/color screen. That said, the existing screen didn't stop me from accomplishing what I wanted to accomplish. Second, a pen loop would be helpful as the magnetic pencil can come unattached. That said, placing the ReMarkable with the binder edge down and pencil on top in my bag helps.I think I have now sold 6 of these to family and friends. At the recent conference there were a few of us who had the ReMarkable2 and we met during a break to share notes and unanimous enthusiasm for this tool.It is fantastic.

Love! I’ve been using this for a few months now. Perfect for my meetings and for my real estate notes. Wish it had a light because it’s very difficult to see at night even with a lamp on. I knew this was going to be a downfall going in so I bought a cheap clip on light which solves the problem. It beats the upgrade price for color and the backlight. I also went with this one instead of the upgrade because it’s a little smaller and fits in my purse so it’s much easier to carry with me at all times. Battery life is also outstanding. Would recommend!

This has to be one of the most life-changing products I have purchased in the last five years. As a designer, CEO and inventor, I use a lot of paper. Those papers, in the pages of thousands, are everywhere.But digital tablets don’t quite do it from my point of view to replace paper. So when I saw the reMarkable 1, I was sold. Three years later and they came out with the reMarkable 2, I bought one immediately. And I gifted my reMarkable 1 to a friend. It worked perfectly, but I wanted the two week battery life. The original reMarkable 1 was about three days. 5 years after I bought it, the reMarkable 1 still works perfectly. No planned obsolescence!I’ve had the reMarkable 2 for almost 2 years now. Still a fantastic piece of equipment. So fantastic that I brought a friend one for their birthday. I shared my reMarkable with a woman on a plane who had just bought an iPad. After the plane ride she ordered a reMarkable 2.I don’t get any credit for talking about how great the product is. It just works really fantastic for me and I’m super enthusiastic to share that with everyone I meet. So I’ve sold several dozen in the years that I’ve had mine.I’ll eventually upgrade to the new color version, but after I give this one a few more years of work.Just one of my notebooks in my tablet has over 1400 pages. And with cloud support, I never have to worry about losing a piece of material that’s important, even if I lose the tablet. I had several journals disappear on my basement because it was flooded. And more importantly I can carry everything that I’ve ever written with me at all times, both in tablet and on mobile. I also use it for signing legal docs, reading scientific papers, and I connected it as screen to a computer, via the app, to create whiteboard drawings in real time that I can share on meetings.

I wanted to work with this before writing a review. I've been using it for 5 months now and can say, unequivocally, that this is a great product.Writing experienceAs a pen aficionado, I've been surprised at how much I enjoy writing with this. I have the pen that erases. I'm on my second pen tip and use it almost daily, so it has pretty good 'tip life'. The writing experience is really nice. Took no adjustment on my part.The PlatformIt's easy to navigate. Easy to categorize and name documents and organize folders. I don't use the handwriting to text feature bc my writing doesn't translate well, so I can't comment on that. However, where before I was carrying around multiple notebooks for different areas of my life, now I have just one. One! And it contains my work notes, my construction notes, my volunteer work notes, PDFs that I've downloaded. Drawings I've made. It's so efficient. And I've never run out of battery life.SummaryI was concerned that I wouldn't take to this given my pen/paper fondness, but the Remarkable has truly delivered. This is not cheap, but well worth the investment thus far. I recommend it.
