    Before buying this I have done some research on eink tablets in the market. Was not sure Scribe is right for me since other product can perform much more functions. After using Scribe for awhile, I am happy to say that I enjoy the device. It is a joy to read on the high resolution screen. The send to kindle function is handy. Writing on the Scribe is also enjoyable. But the software for notetaking can be further improved. Hopefully future updates will make it possible to search hand written notes

    Sure you can compare this to e-readers that are full Android tablets with the Google Play store, but I've used a few of those and the Kindle scribe is by far the most user friendly. And has an amazing screen with an amazing refresh rate. For note taking and doodling it is absolutely the best. But if you want to get into some high-end sketching, or use third party apps look elsewhere. I still highly recommend it. Especially since Amazon seems to be continuing to update the scribe with new features almost every other month.

    I got this for work and wow is it perfect. It lacks some functionality when connecting with other devices, but I bought this with the intention of using less paper when taking notes and it has absolutely taken care of that. Highly recommend. The reading experience is nice too if you don't mind the large device.

    Don't let the fact that you can't write on the page itself in most cases deter you. It works better to have the "sticky note" feature. You have a lot more space to flesh out an idea based on the highlighted text. It's amazing how they made the screen and pen feel so much like a pencil writing on paper. I will miss the ability to do this on other ebook readers in the future. Highly recommend the Kindle Scribe.

    I love this e reader. If u have a lot of notes and reminders to keep up with this would be great. It would also be great if it worked with Alexa as far as Alexa make a note in my blah blah blah notebook also, I would like to see this waterproof. I would love to read my e-reader while in my Jacuzzi. Over all it’s great I wish it had color with the pen settings
