It takes a lot for me to comment on HN, but this review is frustrating. I couldn't be happier with my Remarkable 2, but I also researched what it could and couldn't do beforehand, then learned how to use it after it arrived. Something the reviewer didn't seem to do.
It works like a charm, navigation/gestures are absolutely simple. It's a note-taking device, it never claimed to make crappy handwriting legible; that's not a fault of the device. After a handful of "I thought" and "I figured" the Remarkable should to this or that, with the comical part about "next page" being too hard......seriously? Please. It couldn't be easier.
I find it a joy to use for the things it was designed to do. Quit expecting it to solve all your edge cases you can think of, or fringe scenarios you developed and inherited from a different system.
- projectileboy 5y agoJust to second your comments, I love my Remarkable 2 _because_ it doesn’t try to do everything. It’s a great note taking and sketch device, and a pretty good e-reader. That’s it. If you want an iPad, buy an iPad.
