    Cool reader with easy set up. A case is definitely needed because holding the reader is slippery and I almost dropped it a few times. Overall I am bet pleased with it and have already started my library.

    Love the writing on this. Feels very close to writing on actual paper. But it is not going to be able to be my everyday reader. Too heavy.

    I bough this since I wanted to take my notes (originally wanted the remarkable) but I got this since I also wanted to read. Honestly I like the fact I can read and take notes more than anything else.

    I’m a huge note taker while reading - but taking notes on a paperwhite is similar to having teeth pulled. This ups note taking to an entire new level. Sometimes it is nice - but other times, I dont want to hold it. It’s a hair too large. If I were back in college, this would be an amazing product to have! I think they could improve their design in their next generation, like thinner bezels. But overall, a great kindle, if the price tage makes sense for uour useage.

    I liked reading since I was a child and this is the best purchase, it has no ads, so do not get distracted. the light adapts and is perfect for reading I can make a list of my books to read and the ones I have already read is wonderful, the pen is easy to use and can be adapted to use with a shortcut and underline and I love to be marking my favorite lines. It is certainly a purchase that you will not regret having made.

    Was looking for a tablet to help keep notes from meetings in order and capable of sending them out to others. This tablet mets those requirements with the added benefit of being able to write on documents and read books from my Amazon account. The writing on the tablet feels great and the conversion of the written text to digital is great with very few errors. Organization is great with the notebook feature, and the page formats allow me to insert the type of page I need. Its not as big as some of yhe other writing tablets but it works great for fitting in my bag without added bulk or quickly picking it up when running to a meeting.

    Functionality doesn't equal steep price tag

    As an e-reader its excellent. That said, I purchased the device to be a e-ink tablet for grad school. Its okay as a e-ink but definitely not the same writing experience as a remarkable. The palm rejection when writing is subpar and I often change the page while writing inadvertently. For the price, I just cant justify keeping this device. I spent over $500 with tax for this device and its just not worth the money. At $250-$300 this device would be a winner but for $449 it just doesn't make sense. Side note the Jade color is stunning in person. That made me give it 4 starts. Otherwise it would be 3 stars for me on this device.

    I write this having never experienced any other e-ink note-taking device. I have extensive experience with every other paperwhite reader though. Kindle hands down make the best paperwhite readers and this one is probably the best, most fluid reader I've had...and if you get the right case (NOT the folio kindle sells for 60 dollars, see my review of that under the item for more), it's quite comfortable even as just a large paperwhite reader. Obviously, if you're buying this you're not just in it for a paperwhite reader, if that's the case I recommend the 11th gen kindle paperwhite (I don't recommend the Oasis because its battery life is not nearly as good as the 10th or 11th gen, I've used them all, so I speak from experience), it's much more affordable than a scribe. Back to this scribe, it's awesome when taking notes and editing novels. You can send your own novels to the device, though I did have some trial and error doing so. I found that sending as word doc was the best because it presents your work as a book...with pdf I didn’t like how when I zoomed in it didn’t readjust to the pages etc. The scribe is super responsive and I like how the fountain pen makes my handwriting a little neater some how. I am looking forward to the update that's on the way that will let your in book notes STAY where you put them. It's annoying how it will throw the note box just wherever as it is now. I also look forward to having a place on the side to make notes, which they said will be coming soon. If you have the original scibe, I don't see the point in upgrading because all of the updates will be coming to you too, but I bought this because I didn't have any scribe. Overall, this is a solid purchase and is a bit less than the remarkable paper pro...for what I need it for, I couldn't justify spending the extra money on a remarkable etc.
