    My kindle paperwhite started dying a week before black friday. My husband of course was shopping and told me to get the Scribe as my Christmas present. It is one of the nest choices ever. Of course i miss how compact the paperwhite is but the Scribe is huge and it feels like im reading an actual book. Not to mention the notes or the agenda i can use or calendar!!! I love it!!!

    Great new Kindle. Easy to read and write in sunlight. I use it for work while in the field with customers notating info, instead of old-school notebook or clipboard. I use it to read books while at the beach or at home. Make sure to get the Kindle Scribe cover while you’re at it. It protects the Kindle and holds the pen nicely without losing it. Single charge lasts very long. I just wish the interface was a little easier to navigate, but I’m getting used to it.

    I really needed to stop taking notes on paper as my notes kept getting lost before they could be filed. This puts all of my notes in one place in an easy to find way. It really needs a day planner (built-in) that could sink with Google calendar but that might just be a pipe dream. Black Friday pricing is really great compared to other similar products

    Best E-reader available

    The screen size and resolution is some of the best I've seen on E-reader. The pen that comes with the kindle is a little weird to get used to, the button is easily pressable when you hold it a certain way which can feel a little annoying at first but its easy to get used to after some time. The writing feature for notes is easily one of the best parts about this kindle as it feels like writing on actual paper. Easily one of my favorite kindles ever.

    If I had a kid going to college, I would get them this for taking notes over a laptop. As well it would allow them to read most of their textbooks on it. For a reader, this is great as well. Easy on the eyes, responsive, robustly built.

    magnificent device, got it at a discount, too. from a hardware standpoint, its really, really good. but the software is where it gets kinda dicey. its a closed ecosystem. you have to use amazon account and send emails to an Amazon account to even send pdfs to the thing. If it was an open system it would be perfect. everyone wants to be apple these days.

    I really enjoy using the kindle scribe. It still has a few glitches and some desired missing features. I like being able to upload pdfs and write on them, make notes in my kindle books, and create hand written notebooks. Overall, a great product and look forward to future releases that are more tried and true. For instance, the reading of books (not audibles) skips the first sentence when it moves to the next page. You can't add pages to the beginning or middle of notebooks or move text around. Those are some features I would like to see added/improved.

    Slightly on the heavier side to carry around like a kindle paper white or oasis but works great if you read and edit pdf documents frequently. Also great for note taking. The warm lighting works great for extended periods of usage and also for using in low light conditions.

    I purchased this product after reviewing multiple digital notebooks. This kindle scribe notebook has so many feature, we can write notes in our meeting and write personal notes and save to drive. My kid also created few notebooks for writing and drawing. I love this product and recommend to other.

    My wife used to have the large, lined post-it notepads that would get left (lost) all over the house, as well as a scheduler that was always getting misplaced. We bought this, downloaded a PDF calendar to it and her response was, “Thank you! I never have to write anything down on a piece of paper again!” We are both very happy with this purchase. ;)
