Having tested the Remarkable 2 for a few weeks, I'd actually recommend another device: The Supernote A5X. The hardware & writing experience are a tad better IMO and the software much more so.
Also, the Remarkable devs are notoriously bad when it comes to software updates and sharing their plans for the future with the community. Meanwhile, the Supernote people even share their Trello boards over on Reddit -> https://Reddit.com/r/Supernote https://Reddit.com/r/Supernote
The Supernote, admittedly, is not as hackable yet as the Remarkable but 1) official software updates are much more frequent and 2) there are plans to open up the device to 3rd-party Android apps.
- Eeems 3y agoCould you provide a source on the software updates being more frequent, as well as clarify what you mean by rM being bad at updates? rM has been pushing out updates fairly regularly this year, especially if you include their beta channel.
- codethief 3y agoFair enough, maybe this has changed then. When I last tested and looked into the rM2 in depth (~2 years ago), it was completely different. The software was lacking basic features and there wasn't any communication at all on rM's part.
