![]() ![]() The actual drawing and doodling is nice, but there are a number of issues.įirst the cloud/sync software will happily let you add lots of ebooks/comics to transfer (I have a couple of comic bundles from humble bundle I've yet to read). I've had my rm2 for a few weeks, and I think the software is remarkably bad - but I've yet to truly experiment with the various foss/hacks for it. There is no way to erase a stroke, so you'll inevitably erase more than you want to and have to redraw some of it * The eraser works like a pencil eraser, not a digital one. * There's no pressure sensitivity in the pen * You can't change the default writing utensil, so if you don't like the grainy mid-width pencil you have to change it every single time you open a new document Given that one of my desired uses for the device is to carry around some PDF textbook-style references, this hurts. * Search is very slow in large (100+ page) documents, and results trickle in gradually so you can never be quite sure when you're looking at the whole list. * If you somehow know what page you want to jump to, that's buried two menus deep and frustrating to get to * It doesn't support in-document hyperlinks in PDF or ePub, so your table of contents and index are worthless. There's not even a way to have the button backgrounds be transparent so you could still read most of the text. There is no way to scale the document to fit in the remaining space. * Speaking of zooming, the pen controls overlay the document, often blocking parts of the text. On many of my documents it goes from slightly too small to WAY too big with no level in between There is no pinch zoom, only a button in the UI that jumps in intervals of 100% or more. The hackability is a "plus", but I don't want to have to resort to unsupported firmware tweaks to fix a $500 device. The reMarkable hardware is nice, but its stock software is frankly disappointing. ![]() I'm not returning it, but I can't particularly recommend it - both the annotation and eReading experiences are significantly inferior to what you'd get with Onenote, Notability, or Drawboard on iPad/Surface. ![]()
