Surprised by how much I like it
I tried the original release of the scribe and returned it as I could barely do anything with it. So when they released this upgrade I was tempted to give it a try. My use case is both as a kindle reader, and as a self study student. The device itself feels amazing on the hand, love the light feel and quality build. Only part of the build I hate is the white bezel. I think they were trying to make it look like a note book page, but honestly to me it just looks tacky YMMV. Writing on it is amazing feeling. Not quite writing on paper, but pretty darn close! As a kindle reader it’s a solid experience. It has all the issues I’ve come to expect with the kindle os, issues I wish they’d fix. However one of the biggest issues is the device is underpowered, when doing anything it can take ages to get a response from the ui. Downloading is as hit and miss as it is on any other kindle device, this is especially true of larger files. I have some that are over 1st and kindle has never been able to handle them properly. Sometimes I need to redownload the files multiple times to get them to go from 99% to 100% If you’re only going to be reading normal novels, get a paperwhite. However if you’re going to be reading manga, magazines, comics then you’d may well be better off with this. Now, let’s talk the main use. Writing. A lot of the texts I’m studying can either be directly bought on Kindle or uploaded. So there’s a big advantage there to being able to do it all in the eco system. The inline writing still needs some refinement as it’s a bit clunky and dosent always go where you want it to. However for my usage as self study and essay writing it works a treat. I can make all the notes I want in the text books and then add them to my actual notes. So far after a month of constant use I’ve found it very valuable and worth its investment. However I do still find I go back to my Paperwhite for reading in bed or on the bus. How does it compare to the likes of Remarkable? Honestly I prefer it. I have owned both the Remarkable 2 and Remarkable Pro Color. The problem with both those devices is you can’t get your text books on there. For a corporate setting they may be ok, but for a student I think the Scribe has more versatility. I do hope Amazon work on the OS kinks and bring more functionality to the writing side

Absolutely Love My New Kindle Scribe
Had my eye on a Kindle Scribe for a while and really glad that (after many hours of dithering) I decided to get one, it feels lovely quality and has a nice weight to it. It is easy on the eyes being nice and clear with good contrast, and I'm loving reading from a larger screen. The notebooks have been great for saving my glass fusing and craft project notes, the pen is nice to hold and writes really well and, in the absence of a custom template, the storyboard template has worked well for what I need. I prefer to just jot things down rather than type them up (no good me just trying to remember anything!) and it has been great to do this without adding to my craft room clutter. I'm even thinking of copying everything else over to the scribe so that I can get rid of the rest of my paper notes. Although rubbish at drawing I did have a go and did a picture of my cat, it was quite relaxing to do so will likely do a little more of that too. All in all really happy with the Kindle Scribe and would recommend it.

Super useful. Great screen. Great writing. Brilliant book reader.
I have had this for more than 3 months and use it as a notebook (mostly for work) and also to read kindle books from the Kindle store. I absolutely love it. For work I have used note pads forever. I have lots of clients and lots of mini projects, some big some very small and most of these repeat in some way every year. Rather than keeping old notebooks and spending ages looking for the old notes I am now able to have all the notes in one place. This is thanks to the filing system (you can create file names and put them in folders and sub folder just like a Windows file system). This makes life so much easier. The pen is great and there are lots of ink styles to suit your preference. I find the eraser and the select tool (bit like cut and paste) very useful so that i can amend and update notes or to do lists day after day after day. There are plenty of other features like AI text recognition, exporting files, various paper templates, but i basically use one page style 99% of the time and nothing else. Then its a really big, clear and bright display (with backlight for night reading) so you can read your notes whenever and wherever. Then the actual Kindle books thing is also superb. Some might think its a bit big,but for me, not the case at all. I read books on this several hours a week whilst riding the train to and from work. I have a kindle folio case. That holds the kindle really well and offers enough protection for me to not worry about this being in my bag or on a table. It shows no signs of wear after 3 months constant use. One thing I would like to see if a “tag” system to help locate files in a different way (have seen this on the main alternative to this) but i think I probably only want this because I haven’t actually got it!

Ich habe mir den Amazon Kindle Scribe in der 64-GB-Variante inklusive Tasche und Netzteil bestellt und bin in jeder Hinsicht mehr als zufrieden. Bereits die schnelle und zuverlässige Lieferung hat einen positiven ersten Eindruck hinterlassen, der sich in der täglichen Nutzung nahtlos bestätigt. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das Schreibgefühl: Es ist absolut einzigartig und vermittelt eine haptische Erfahrung, die dem Schreiben auf Papier erstaunlich nahekommt. Diese Kombination aus digitaler Effizienz und analoger Natürlichkeit macht den Kindle Scribe zu einem unschätzbaren Werkzeug. Im Businesskontext nutze ich das Gerät regelmäßig für Notizen, Konzepte und die Bearbeitung von Dokumenten. Dank der großzügigen Speicherkapazität von 64 GB habe ich jederzeit Zugriff auf meine Unterlagen, ohne Abstriche bei Geschwindigkeit oder Übersichtlichkeit machen zu müssen. Die dazugehörige Schutzhülle und der Ladeadapter runden das Gesamtpaket perfekt ab und sorgen für eine ebenso praktische wie professionelle Anwendung im Arbeitsalltag. Darüber hinaus überzeugt der Kindle Scribe auch im klassischen Lesebereich. Die große Auswahl an Büchern im Amazon-Ökosystem, kombiniert mit dem hervorragenden Display, ermöglicht ein entspanntes und augenschonendes Leseerlebnis. Sowohl die Qualität der Darstellung als auch die intuitive Bedienung setzen Maßstäbe und steigern den Mehrwert dieses Gerätes erheblich. Nicht zuletzt ist auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis im grünen Bereich: Angesichts der gebotenen Qualität und Vielseitigkeit ist die Investition in dieses Gerät absolut gerechtfertigt. Fazit: Der Kindle Scribe überzeugt durch Qualität, Funktionalität und Benutzerfreundlichkeit auf höchstem Niveau – sowohl beim Schreiben als auch beim Lesen. Für alle, die im beruflichen Umfeld Wert auf effiziente, mobile und intuitive Arbeitsmittel legen und zugleich ein exzellentes Leseerlebnis schätzen, ist dieses Gerät eine uneingeschränkte Empfehlung. Ich vergebe aus voller Überzeugung die Bestnote.

After my excellent experience with the Kindle Paperwhite, I decided to buy the Kindle Scribe so I could take my books everywhere and organize all my notes on a single device. I really liked that you can use PDF templates to create a planner or manage an annual budget, in addition to all the included templates for creating notebooks. To get the most out of the Kindle Scribe, you need to understand what it is and how it works, as this device might not be for everyone. If you're looking for an e-reader to take notes and organize your day, this is the perfect device for you. But if you're looking to use it to browse the internet, watch videos, or look at photos like you would on a tablet, this device isn't for you, as it wasn't designed for that purpose. Regarding the flickering mentioned in many negative reviews, you should understand that this is normal for e-ink screens; it's how they clear the previous page. Screen and writing: The 10.2” screen with E Ink technology is very comfortable for the eyes, even after several hours of use. The stylus responds precisely, and the writing feel is natural, very similar to paper. It is ideal for notes, lists, and annotations in documents. Battery: The battery lasts for several weeks with mixed read and write use, which is a big plus. Pros: *I can read all my digital books just like on my previous Kindle *I can create different types of notebooks that suit my needs *I can transfer PDF templates like planners and write directly in them *Large, crisp screen *Smooth, precise writing *Excellent battery life *Ideal for reading and productivity Cons:I have nothing negative to say about the Kindle Scribe; it meets all my needs and expectations. In conclusion: I recommend the Kindle Scribe to students, professionals, and readers who need a large reading device with writing capabilities. It's an excellent option if you're looking to combine reading and note-taking in a single device. I've included photos of the product in actual use for your reference.

Lo Scribe si presenta molto bene con finiture in metallo, ottima dimensione dello schermo, buona risoluzione e toni di grigio. Leggero a sufficienza per poterlo tenere con una sola mano. Retroilluminazione regolabile sia in luminosità che temperatura colore. La lettura è estremamente riposante. Via USB è possibile passare file PDF che vengono vializzati nella libreria : per quelli che ho provato, manualistica professionale, non ho avuto problemi di visualizzazione. Un po' di confusione si crea avendo i PDF assieme ai libri in libreria : sarebbe stato meglio avere due sezioni separate, ma sono dettagli. L'uso della penna è veramente ottimo, la sensazione è quella di scrivere su carta, buoni i vari tipi di penna anche se non sono perfette a sfruttare l'inclinazione o la pressione. Comunque un ottimo livello per la scrittura a mano e per prendere note. È sicuramente un ottimo prodotto per leggere libri, PDF e prendere appunti (non saprei per disegnare). L'unica pecca forse è che le note sui libri vengono scritte all'interno di caselle inserite tra il testo, non sovrapposte come invece si più fare con molti lettori PDF per PC o tablet (ma anche questo è un dettaglio). In conclusione lo consiglio, meglio se durante un periodo di sconti ..

Purchased in Ireland, so might not apply to everyone. Good Things. - I much prefer the bigger screen versus the small kindles. Finally feels like I am reading a book. - Pen response is very fluid. On par with good graphics tablet. - Incredibly light. - I can side load all my pdfs/documents easily. Not so good things. - Battery drain is somewhat faster versus the smaller devices. - Kindle Unlimited is not in my region. - There is some ghosting on the screen. If you are deleting text or scrolling. It is not permanent though. - The AI features are on the cloud and slow. I wouldn't feel comfortable pushing to the cloud at all. - The pen doesn't work on side loaded PDFs. Which is the whole reason I got the device for. One major annoyance! After leaving the device for sometime while still in a book I am reading, instead of returning to where I am left off it shows me a store page book. Basically an advert. I thought I was doing this by accident, but it is the device doing it. I see no way to switch it off. For the price and had I known the issues I likely would not have purchased this.

Fiquei impressionado pela qualidade do produto. Tanto dá sensibilidade da escrita como da luz. Começo por dizer que apesar de ser um investimento ( assim o considero) que esta versão de 2024 - embora não conheça a versão de 2022 - é espetacular. Peso: é leve e só é mais pesado porque comprei a capa original. O porta lápis magnético funciona bem, o botão do lápis e sua programação é útil. A forma da escrita é muito boa. Tem várias opções de espessuras de traços. O interface lateral para as opções de edição é rápida e intuitiva. Tive dúvidas no início como passar de cadernos para livros etc mas com tutoriais no YouTube facilmente chega-se lá. Pena não haver um manual de instruções. Depois de aprender é fácil a fazer upload de ficheiros PDF etc. As anotações e book são ótimas e PDF um pouco diferente mas boas. A leitura noturna é ok, só quando muda páginas é que dá um flash estranho, de resto ok. Não consigo ver o número da página nos livros em PDF. Vou investigar. É muito útil o envio direto das anotações dos cadernos para o nosso email, faz um scan perfeito. Sobre a conversão do Manual para digital de textos ainda estou a testar mas já vi que depende muito da caligrafia. Nao ha milagres. Mas se escrever bem legível ele converte bem e envia para email definido. É uma boa compra. Recomendo
