Thanks for sharing! How does the writing experience on the supernote compares to the RM2?


I'm not the person you're replying to, and I've not compared them myself directly, but I've heard a few people describe it as the difference between writing with pen (Supernote) and writing with pencil (RM2). At least on the Supernote side, that matches with my experience - it's fairly smooth, but it does feel like you're writing on paper rather than, say, a glass screen.

There is almost no noticeable lag while writing, and even while doing more complicated things like scrolling through my Kindle list, or resizing a block of writing, the screen keeps up very well.

Purely from my perspective, I find the smaller screen size (roughly A5 dimensions) of my Supernote a lot nicer than the more A4-proportioned Remarkable, but that's just a preference thing - I like writing in smaller notebooks in general. You can also get the Supernote in a size closer to the Remarkable if that's more what you want though.


Having used both the best description would be the Supernote a5x is like writing with a rollerball pen, where the Remarkable is like writing with a pencil.

Both are good, fluid, responsive, but slightly different
