The Remarkable is intended to primarily be a digital notebook and their advertising is very clear on that. It's not intended to run apps, it's not intended as e-book reader (though it has some limited capabilities), it doesn't have a browser, etc., nor do they intend to add such things.
The parent is correct that people who are looking for those things should not be considering the Remarkable, but that is not a demerit of the device.
- BossingAround 4y agoEssentially, what I'm claiming is that the only thing RM2 does better than a device like BOOX is that the writing feels better. It's not even better organized, the note app is not better in any way AFAICT, it just feels slightly more like paper. In other words, the RM2 marketing can dress this up as whatever it wants. In the current market, the only person who's better served by RM2 than by its competitors is a person that loves the feeling of writing on a paper and is willing to trade it for a number of features. You can have a BOOX full-on digital notebook as well.
