- bryanrasmussen 2y agoreMarkable however is not very pleasant to use as a reading device, because the screen is just not light enough.

- 3eb7988a1663 2y agoHaving played with one for 60 seconds, I assume the author meant weight. It is definitely a bit hefty for something on which you might want to do long form reading.
- refulgentis 2y agoI have one and I don't think so, at all, to the point it seemed unreasonable. But it is not unreasonable: you've used one too, and are reasoning. So I'm thinking...how can I dispel my perception that Remarkable is definitely less than a paperback book? googles Ah, a printer's book weight calculator! (https://www.bookmobile.com/book-weight-calculator/ https://www.bookmobile.com/book-weight-calculator/) Let's do cheapest & lightest paper possible. Hmm how many pages for long form...600 pages seems open to questions still, lets do 400. Use the default size for a paperback in the calculator, 6.25" x 9", sounds reasonable. Results: Paperback is 595g. Remarkable Pro is 525g. Remarkable is 404g. This aside, my prior was light-as-in-display, the background is more towards midgray than white
- bryanrasmussen 2y agoI don't have the very latest one, mine is the one before the current one so perhaps I am no longer correct, but my issue was brightness. The screen is big enough and the text is big enough by itself that I should not need my reading glasses, if the contrast was great enough, but it isn't great enough. That by itself is extremely irritating to me.
