Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Love it! Does exactly what i needed it to do! Love that i can upload my books to make notes

I love the versatility of the Kindle Scribe. The ability to wrote notes or sketch was a selling point for me. Unfortunately it didn’t fit my needs at this time.

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.

had the old one, cannot tell this one is a different one, but still love it, good thing the color is so flashy, stylys too same as before, which was and is perfect

I love it. It took a little bit to get used to but it's seemless. I mostly use it for writing on to be fair but it's great. Transferring files is seemless

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.

Reads and feels just like paper. Only thing missing is the smell.

This product is amazing! I am left handed and for me I haven't had any issues with pad reading the stylus. It writes in a fluid manner and i use this everyday for work and for reading. It's easy on the eyes and very simple to start up and operate. I can't compre to other writing tablets for this is my first one. I would highly recommend especially if the price is right.

Love this! The battery last forever and I can go between reading and working easily. I have not charged this device in 2 weeks and it's still going strong..

Bought this for my wife's college, and man, it's the best thing I have done for her. She can comfortably do many things with it, and it's wonderful for studying and reading college papers and mark important things, or write her own notes on the paper. I do have one slight issue. The pen is not as durable as you might think. It slipped from her hands once, and it already formed a crack near the button. It didn't ruin any of the functionality, but it's concerning that one small fall could cause that crack.

The Kindle Scribe is an excellent way to read. And it looks well. I like the white background with black text, just like a regular book. I rarely write with it as my script is horrible. It will convert script to text, but you can't change the typeface.

Love the thin, light design, plus the beautiful metallic color to differentiate the tablet from my other devices. Don't like the browser though it's not why I bought this device. The preinstalled browser is not programmed to load all the features of any given website. Also it's hard to figure out how to shut it off to save the battery or how to increase/decrease the backlight. Love having access to all my kindle purchases and GoodReads content too.

The kindle scribe is great. I take notes, plan my week and can read books all in one.

Purchased with a gift card from points I earned on a credit account and an upgrade from the Kindle Paperwhite. This is a HUGE improvement over my iPad pro’s overly-slick glass screen with Paperlike screen film. I’m able to write normally with far less hand strain. The AI text conversion and summarization is what set it apart from Remarkable’s entry. I would like to see the ability to link notes come to this device as a future upgrade soon.

Still new to me, but easy to figure out and has worked great for what I need it for.

Purchased the Kindle Scribe at Best Buy. Received and opened it out the box and the product has been working great!

Love the kindle! Works amazing. Shipped before the date!

I have enjoyed my kindle scribe so far. The biggest challenge is I find it hard to organize notes. I wish PDFs could be moved to "Notes" rather than only being able to have them in "Library" with the other ebooks and audiobooks. That restriction doesn't make much sense to me. Other than that, great product!

Wonderful. This is an awesome device that is a must for students and students alike
