Love my ReMarkable but I'm one of those paper nuts that likes to scribble a lot
I use it as an "endless pile of paper" and don't think much about organizing my notes. It's very effective at emulating paper, and because it can do so little it's also very nice to keeping focus and not getting distracted
It's my go-to tool for jotting down ideas, or taking notes during meetings and it's always on my table
I had a ReMarkable 2 last year, but sent it back. For reading PDFs my iPad Pro 12.9 inch is way better, and for taking notes and scribbling paper is way better. I can also have 10 sheets of paper or more next to each other on my desk, try that with a ReMarkable. It's a beautiful device, but inferior to the alternatives, at least for me.
You might wanna try Paperlike: https://paperlike.com/products/paperlike-for-ipad
It made a huge difference for me. My use case is similar to yours. I use it for drawing but also as an endless pile of paper with Concepts.
I have one :-) Never used it though, I just don't have a need for writing on my iPad. Writing on real paper with a nice pen is about as good as it gets for me.
I am always imagining how cool computer supported drawing or something like that might be, but so far there is no software for that which I like. When there is, I might finally use the paperlike!
How's the pen latency, esp. compared to iPads? I'm using an iPad Pro (2nd or 3rd gen) + Paperlike and it works lovely and even the 1st-gen pen is just so much better than anything else I've tried.
I can't compare to iPad, but the reMarkable 2 pen latency is very good. Not zero, but so tiny it isn't noticeable. It also has a paperlike feel, a subtle texture. This seems like a trivial detail until you use it. Now writing on a glassy-smooth surface feels cheap in comparison.
Agreed. As a notebook the R2 has replaced a disorganised and ever-growing stack of paper on my desk. I love it. The only way I use it is for sketching diagrams and noting my thoughts during meetings.
