    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.

    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.

    Preferred over the ReMarkable ... AI and Reading

    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.

    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.

    I had purchased the kindle scribe to get away from reading books off my iPad. Prior to the purchase I was unsure due to the price and other reviews. However so happy I bought it works great and doesn’t cause me eye strain like my iPad. Highly recommend!!
