    Nice Device but in a Walled Garden

    It's a nice device. It's sleek and comfortable to hold. It has good note-taking capability and ease of use, but the notes are stuck in the Amazon ecosystem, and there is no ability to sync to other cloud providers like Google Docs or OneDrive. Annotations on Kindle books are pretty great though, but again, only viewable on the device.

    Fantastic device for any doer. Closest feel to paper and pencil I’ve used so far. 4 star rating is for it being locked up with proprietary system and doesn’t allow you to use any type of custom template easily.

    Great battery life, great for taking notes at work, AI works as advertised. Device is a bit big for traveling, recommend Kindle Paperwhite for travel and better reading at the bed, beach etc.

    I've always wanted a kindle. However, this product has gone above and beyond! I love that I can scribe and look up words that I'm not familiar with. I also, like the size and color of this tablet!

      Posted .

      Hello, James. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on the Kindle Scribe. I am sorry to hear about your experience with the pen. If the pen is no longer writing, I recommend checking to make sure the pen tip is not damaged. If the pen tip is damaged or worn, it may not make proper contact with the screen. If the tip does appear worn or damaged, I recommend swapping the stylus pen tip using one of the five replacement tips and the tip replacement tool included with your Kindle Scribe. If these steps do not solve your issue, press and hold the Kindle power button to access the restart menu and restart the device. If you need help or have any questions about the device, I recommend calling Amazon customer service, available 24/7. You can reach us at 1-888-280-4331. I hope this helps; have a great day!
