Just got the confirmation that a DHL Express shipment is on its way from Norway (uh Hong-Kong) to New Zealand. Having read all the reviews and watched the videos about the reMarkable and its competitors, the answer to the question “is there a reMarkable alternative out there” is easy to answer for me… My Remarkable will arrive in a few days. Conclusion & answer to the question about a reMarkable alternative This will also make it harder to do corrections or make changes as it needs to be done on your electronic device. These will be sent to your electronic device, just like Wacom does. However, you can only use the special paper notebook and pen to create notes or drawings. Alternative #3: Moleskin Smart Writing Set (digital pen)Īnother cheaper alternative, a third of the price of the reMarkable tablet: around NZ$300 for the Moleskin Smart Writing Set. Also, after reading and watching several reviews it turns out that the options are more limited on the Sony DPT-RP1 compared to the reMarkable. Same A4 size as the reMarkable but it is more expensive (around US$700 or NZ$1,035 just for the unit). Plus, it's not really going fully paperless. Everything you put on the piece of paper is still as static as everything on paper. You'll need to do that on your connected device.

You can't erase or adjust the stuff that you create. Looks good… But there's one big disadvantage.

Draw or write on the piece of paper with the special pen and the tablet underneath will capture you pen movements and sends it via Bluetooth to your smartphone, tablet or computer. It's basically a tablet/pad where you put a piece of paper on. And it's relatively cheap, about a third of the price of a reMarkable tablet. To be honest the Wacom Bamboo Folio range (comes in small and large) is a great product. But is one of them the reMarkable killer? Alternative #1: Wacom Bamboo Folio (large) Is there a reMarkable alternative?īut still, is there a reMarkable alternative out there that can do the same or more? At a better price? I found the following alternatives that can do the same – more or less – as the Remarkable tablet.

So yeah, expect some software updates and improvements. Keep in mind, reMarkable is a start-up and after a successful Kickstarter campaign creating happy customers is super important for them. Software and battery life is something that can and will be improved. And the creating part will always take place in a well-lit environment, so no deal breaker for me. Is it a real disadvantage you need to put on a light to use the reMarkable? Not really, using it as an e-reader is an added bonus for me. I managed fine with my notebook… And nowadays with my modern Everlast notebook.Īs regular e-readers have a backlight system you can use 'em in the dark or in darker environments. But for me, it'll be a nice to have a device that I will use on a regular basis but it wouldn't be a lifesaver for me. If you take notes all day or draw a lot then the price of making your life a lot easier isn't that high. But is it too expensive if it solves a problem for you?

Yes, the price is relatively high (NZ$999 for the bundle: tablet, pen, cover and free shipping worldwide) when compared to regular tablets or e-ink devices. The things that stood out in all these reviews were… Yes, it a great product but: Is it as good as promised by the specs or the promo video? I started reading and watching reviews about the reMarkable e-ink tablet. The reMarkable e-ink tablet would be useful for me… Reviews about reMarkable And eventually, I forget about them, spill coffee on 'em and throw them out… But then, later on, I keep searching for that one item on paper I do need.

I always carry around a notebook and my desk is covered in Post-It notes and A4 pieces of paper with sketches or doodling on it.

Plus taking notes in meetings, correcting documents and more. Sketching campaigns, promotions, landing pages is what I do on paper. I'm not an artist, I can't really draw but even though I'm a Digital Geek, part of me is still a paper person. Apparently, I missed their Kickstarter campaign. Seeing the reMarkable tablet in a Facebook advert (gotta love well-targeted ads), was the first time I came across reMarkable. Time to do some research first and to answer the questions: Is there a Remarkable alternative that is better or cheaper? Well, here's what I found. But it isn't something you buy as an impulse purchase. It triggered the “yeah, I want that gadget” hormone in my geeky mind immediately. Recently I came across the reMarkable e-ink tablet.
