    I researched many eink tablets to use as a note taker. Kindle ascribe hits the sweet spot. It’s not as expensive as the others, the pen feels nice in hand. While the software is not as extensive as other tablets, it doesn’t have to be. It does the job to great satisfaction. Bonus, I can read books with ease on it. I was hesitant but the backlight and Kindle book access sold me

    The Kindle Scribe is a great device for reading and writing. I live the 10” screen. The writing experience is as close a you can get to pen/pencil and paper. I do wish it was able to convert written notes to text and ability to write notes on all books rather than just some. Hopefully they will add these features in the future.

    Love it. Writing on the device is smooth and better than the Kobo Sage. battery life is noticeably better then the kindle oasis. I don’t like the post it note style when kobo allows you to write directly on the book so in that aspect Kobo Sage is better. I really like the notepad on the Kindle scribe, flawless writing.

    I use this for reading journal articles and PDFs mostly and it has helped me to, finally, make the switch to digital from pen and paper. The feel of the pen on the screen has enough friction to give it that feel of writing on paper and the resolution is great. Highly recommend.

    I love this Kindle. The size alone had me sold. I’m not constantly flipping pages, because so much text can be displayed on the screen. As a bonus, the writing experience is very smooth. This has been a great upgrade from my Oasis.

    Love love love this kindle. Haven't had a kindle in years but this one piqued my interest with the ability to write on it with its pen and even save, share, and turn written words into text documents. It is a bit cumbersome without a case so definitely recommend getting one of those. Also wish the user interface was a bit more intuitive bit overall, once I understood how it operated, it's fairly easy to navigate. That being said, I love this device. I am a writer and being able to actually WRITE down my thoughts or ideas or scenes if my muse strikes WHEN it strikes is awesome. The pen is easy to use and there is little to no delay when writing--very smooth. Definitely recommend.

    Got this for my son for college. He loves it and uses it everyday for note taking, reviewing his work, and reading his textbooks. The battery life is amazing. He is left handed and says it works well for him.

    This Kindle is as large as an iPad making it so easy to read from. The ability to take notes is a fantastic idea. However, I still prefer the Kindle Oasis.

    The scribe is so easy to use. I love how thin and manageable it is. I gifted this to my fiancé and he totally loved it and I did too. I’m going to have to buy another one because I keep trying to use it.

    This is by far the best iteration of the Kindle. The size alone is a game changer but adding the pdf and note taking features and it crushes the more expensive less versatile Re-Markable.
