- matsemann 6y agoUnless there are some newer Kindle models I'm unaware of, they are very different. The Kindle is a passive device, where one can read and barely interact with buttons and stuff. It's great for reading books and I use it often for that, but not much more. The reMarkable is a device for production, where you can write, sketch, organize etc. The display is much quicker to update and the pen is really good. I also like that it's a bit bigger, so reading PDFs isn't as much hassle as on a smaller Kindle. At least that's my take on it. Kindle for leisure, reMarkable for work.
