Every Kindle Model Compared - Which one to buy in 2023
I’m a big reader and author. I’m thinking of either getting a Kindle Paperwhite or Kindle Scribe. Scribe is of course much more expensive. Do you think it’s worth it, or should I just continue writing notes on my phone. I dont carry around physical notebooks and dont like using my phone because its tiny and I dont like typing on the keyboard but right now I have to have all my notes about everything including all of the plans and ideas for the books I’m writing which is more than fifty different books and complex plans for each. I get ideas all the time but always have to use my phone to write them. I’d love to have a Kindle Scribe. But I still only want an E-reader. Even if I dont like it, I have my phone to write plans and notes and a computer to write my drafts and actual final copies. Is a Scribe really worth it, or should I get the Paperwhite as a dedicated E-reader and nothing else?
Are you wearing a seiko SKX? What a legend.
can you buy kindle books on iPad? if you dont have Kindle device
How many books can you store on the iPad?
Hope there is are options for pen color.
Solid video! Very thorough and informative.
Thing is you can’t download books via the app.
HUH?
@@honestabe1940 you can’t download books!
Ty!
It amazes me how people still use white screens on their devices. Even with the lowest light, night shift and reduce white point, white light can be so painful to the eyes. Some apps/websites do not allow dark modes, and I am so tired of asking for it. Dark mode doesn't only save you from going almost blind, but I heard it is also great to save battery. Thanks for the video! :)
Libraries, RUclips, and LibriVox have hundreds of thousands of free audiobooks.
I have to agree with you on the templates, it's very lacking.
A big size of Kindle, that’s all 😂😂😂
Great explanation, thanks
Which case have you got that in? It looks very minimal and lightweight!
Can Good Notes 5 do what I want on an iPad mini 6, that is replicate my old logbook that I have used for years on paper? I devised my own custom logbook of numerous entry spaces that includes for example, blood pressure, prescription drug taken, work hours, books read - the list is long. Using the book let alone prepping it is so detailed that it is a time suck. I want to create a sort of database notebook that I can choose to ignore sections or fill everything out, maybe even hiding the parts that have zero information. Most of all I want to literally duplicate the appearance of the logbook I am very familiar with. Old notebook... Upsides.. U1. Suits *my* custom needs and can be changed as I go (unless I have already drawn the template for long periods) U2. Nothing to learn because I have used it for years Downsides... D1. Cumbersome to search as in almost impossible D2. Bulky and heavy to store old notebooks D3. Cannot sort for example, a copy of all category B entries over a year D4. mathematical errors of dates and day X out of day (total) in location Y Again, I do not want to copy the Bullet journal, but instead my own variation
Amazing review, and I am very similar to you and having a device like this without distractions is amazing! Great tips here and I loved the review, the best I think - thanks!
I'm a Big Jo Nesbo fan, I actually have all the Harry hole series collection. I'm about to start The night house by Jo Nesbo. I love horror novels so I'm glad Jo Nesbo is writing on this horror genre.
The coolest part about an ipad is it doesn't need a case.
Great video!!! You saved me $200 for a new Kindle. I have an iPad Pro, but the glare and high color wasn’t pleasant to use for reading. Thanks
I’ve had my Scribe for about two weeks. I thought when I saw/researched other kindles, that I might go to the Remarkable 2, or the Bigme tab; however, after carefully listening to the Techs describe the Scribe vs the other Kindles, I’ve decided that the Scribe is the right tab for me. The one feature, among others, I enjoy about the Scribe is the built in keyboard. It allows me to type info. that I need without having to attach an external keyboard, which is very convenient. I’d like to see two features added to the Scribe, and those features are: 1. Color, and 2. More memory, 128gb., this would really make the Scribe more fantastic than it already is. Thx for this video. Very informative!😀
Thanks for the enlightenment. I have 496 books in my audible library. I’ve listened to about 350 of them. Probably more. I listened to two or three books per week. I will use my 315 hours per month on Spotify, if there’s a book I really want and I don’t want to spend a credit. I am the listener that it will work for, however I won’t be topping up.
why you talk so much and dont get to the point
I’ve just bought a Scribe after using my iPad to read Kindle books for the last couple of years. I prefer to scroll as I read rather than tap to turn the pages but I can’t see a way to do this on my new scribe, can you tell me if this is possible please, and if so how? Thank you.
Been using my scribe for a year now, taking it with me everywhere and using it all day. Love it.
Using Procreate with the paper cover (I have the magnetic one) drives me mad... It causes me issues when drawing. So I took it off.
Great video but Amazon has really been disappointing here. The hardware is great but the software even a year later lacks really simple things: 1) No custom templates 2) Cannot access your PDF annotations from any other device 3) Cannot duplicate a page in your PDF (or delete, rearrange) 4) No layers 5) No quick access drawer 6) No automatic orientation change (or at least a per notebook orientation setting) 7) No handwriting recognition without sending yourself an email 8) Can't move your PDF notebooks to the notebook section (they are treated as books), 9) Lasso tool can't rotate selection 10) Palm rejection isn't great and it loves to go to the next page 11) No straight lines 12) No tap to undo/redo etc, etc, etc - in combination it leads to a really frustrating experience. I wanted to love this device and I really want a backlight, but I've gone back to the reMarkable2.
I use both services. I use Spotify for shorted books and for just trying out a book, I am not sure I want to read. If I want to finish it a lot, I will use one of my Audible credits to buy it. If it is something I don't want to waste a full credit on, I just wait until I have more credits. Also I look at the prices of the book I am choosing to spend a credit for. The higher the cost of the audobook, I use a credit for it. If a book is on sale and less than $8 dollars I might just buy it at the sale price.
Very useful, thanks!
What do you think when you see your favourite author write in a different genre?
Everybody is missing the key point of this video, the fact that the Buckingham's major goal is "world domination." It's right there in one of his notebook pages. See 11:15. The list of steps is pretty vague though. Step two is "dominate." Then, step three, he's ready for pizza.
The inner dialogue about another person seeing your notes . . . hilarious!!
love this review
Sorry but I hoped when I click on this video to get more about the app … do I have to draw everything from the beginning? And also transfer previous task all by hand?
There will be templates you can use online in you search for them. But I actually like drawing my own with bullet journaling things as I keep them basic but personalise them to exactly what I need
@@samuelbuckingham thank you for your quick answer. I will consider that.
I love my I pad and my kindle!! I love both!!
You sold me it, Samuel. I was hesitating, but this helped to convince me. So far, so good. I’m with you on not marking books too, seems almost sacrilegious somehow. Good luck with your wish list.
I think the default iBooks screen is white becase traditional paper books are white, and this is part of the skewmorphic design, with the animated page transitions, etc.
I will not pay for something on top of something I already pay for it just pissed me off
One more tip - in the ipad settings, go to accessibility and turn on color filters and move the slider to make it all red. You can set up the triple click to make it easier to turn on/off. Now when you read at night, turn this filter on and the text will be red instead of white resulting in even less light hitting you in the eyes and its much less bright for those around you.
Great tip
which country are you from brother? Your accent seems unnoticable to me..
I’m from the UK
Very precise information and useful.

I don‘t have a kindle, but a Tolino, which is a German company. But I think the devices nowadays are made by Kobo. However: it‘s quite old and wasn‘t expensive, so navigating the OS is pretty slow. And it‘s really small with a 6“ screen. But now I got my first ipad (the Air 5), I have to say: I still enjoy reading on the e-book reader way more. The ipad is too big and too heavy to hold comfortably with one hand and the screen is aweful to read on especially at night. And the screen in general is too big for reading, I have set up my e-reader to show roughly 60 - 70 words per page and that is the absolute sweet spot for me, because the end of the line is pretty close to the start of the next line. This makes reading for me way less tiring even than paper books. As a kid I read book after book, for hours every single day. But during the past 10 years or so, I finished maybe 2 or 3. The e-reader absolutely re-ignited my passion for reading and I have had it for maybe 3 years now and I read about 30 books during that time. Maybe the ipad mini could potentially make a good e-reader, but I had to get the big one due to other important use cases and it could never replace my e-reader. Even though it doesn‘t have a reasonable annotation function. I never read books more than once anyway and I take my reading notes in a different way seperately. <3 So if you never had an e-reader: get one, it‘s one of the best gadgets I ever bought.
15 hours a month is not enough. Audible and Libby for me.
Thank you for the tips!!
I read books on my iPhone 7 lmao !
A great video which answered all my questions. And a nice cheery voice. Thank you!
Great for Manga….or Manga-like. I’ve been reading The Walking Dead. Looks great on the Scribe. Something to consider with the Premium Pen…you’ll extend the life of your nib, because of the eraser side.
Which watch u r wearing?
My iPad Mini is perfect as a Kindle/Reader, but all the other iPads are too big and too heavy!
It’s not worthy having that effect with the protector, you lose a lot of brightness and resolution, which are advantages of the iPad screen
