Annotation and highlighting — needs to work smoothly, and I would like to get highlights/notes out in a usable format. same for this. 4. Z

It's time to check the competition

I'm not quite at the point of leaving RM altogether, but I will agree that colored e-ink just doesn't seem like it's a very reliable point in its development. Having both the RM2 and RMPP (and using both regularly), it definitely seems like monochrome e-ink is the more robust of the two. Makes me wi

Biggest frustration with 4.1

Boox hardware is being seriously let down by the software. I have 3 premium Boox devices and can no longer give them the benefit of the doubt anymore (Tab X, Note Max, Air 4C). My Note Max felt abadoned within 4 months of release. Software is also non-inutitive and really not enjoyable to use.

my one page review of writing on the Go 10.3 Gen II

Well, I wish they implemented this on Palma 2 Pro. It might become a very good opponent to the RMPPM with this. Honestly, I didn't even consider buying it, but after each reviews I see, I keen to buy it. If I had seen this device earlier this year, I may not have even bought the Kindle Scribe 2025 (

Are e-ink note-taking devices like reMarkable worth it for software engineers?

The only one that work with a subscription (and it’s not an obligation to subscribe though) is the remarkable with connect. There is no hidden fees. I’m not a software engineer but considering your use of obsidian you might like the onyx Boox devices since it is an android google play enabled device

Any Color E-reader around 8-9 inch that is recommended?

I’m not sure anything really even exists between 7.8 and 10.3’’ screens in this market (E Ink Company doesn’t provide an awful lot of screen sizes for different brands to buy for their devices). So your choices really are either the few 7.8’’ devices (PocketBook Inkpad 3 Colour comes to mind and I b

Why BOOX?

BOOX devices are quirky about locations of charging ports and folks tend to hate them. I regularly use my devices flat on my desk and all of my charging cables slide out from the back of my desk, so I like charging ports on top or on the side (I may be one of two people who publicly admit liking the
