I purchased the device a couple of months back. As the review states, the hardware is stunning. Great design and great quality. It really does feel good in the hand. The pen and case design are also excellent. Magnets, superb. The writing experience was faultless - a real joy to write. Less impressive was the distance between the screens. A big annoyance was the lack of any contrast adjustment - the blacks weren't black enough and i struggled to read some text - probably a combination of the paper like film and relatively low resolution. The software is pretty terrible. Basic is one thing but poor logic and just doesnt feel finished. The reader is appalling but i managed to side load Kindle and this was much better. I also managed to side load Chrome but that is about it. Not a lot else worked. The inability to autosync / backup to Google Drive is frustrating. Despite all of this i was willing to keep the device and just hope that the software is developed rapidly and updates rolled out promptly. That was until the device just wiped 6 weeks of notes without any indication or warning. If the device wont auto back up with Google Drive and i cant trust it to store my work locally, there is no way i can stick with the device. Lenovo were fairly prompt in arranging for the device to be returned but i have had issues with them historically re a desk top and i can safely say they have the worst customer service one could imagine. Be prepared to be lied to by their Indian call centre and ignored by their complaints team. They simply couldnt care less in my experience.
Yes, it is a very common trait. Lenovo had quite a lot interesting/fascinating devices but stoped the support without even fixing all the errors, not to talk about long term updates. E.g. the yoga book, yoga book c930, the thinkbook plus etc.
my wish would be the RM2 includes the voice capabiliites by emultating the lenovo solution (plus adding shapes - circles squares etc for drawing quick diagrams) . great video !
First the Scribe, and now Lenovo. How are these large manufacturers releasing such some of the absolute best eNote hardware with completely half-baked software? I feel like the software is going to give people a bad first impression and then these devices will get abandoned since they won't sell as well as the large company accountants would want. I hope some open source projects find a way to use the Scribe and Lenovo hardware and fill the gaps left by manufacturers and let the hardware live up to it's potential. In an era of layoffs and companies chasing the most profitable thing, I don't have a lot of confidence in how long these will stick around.
Was heartbroken by the subscription model. That’s why I’m steering away from remarkable, and this already disqualifies the Lenovo :(( Edit: that payment model is actually completely disgusting and disturbing Thanks for the video! Truly is a deep guide!!!
Thanks for the review - you’ve saved me from great disappointment. I was very much set on getting the Lenovo Smart Paper - but those subscription costs and no hyperlink support (I really can’t believe it) are just a ‘no, not buying’
I can see you were struggling to be positive about this device but while it’s not useless and looks quite nice there are, as I think you fairly conclude, just too many downsides to it in its current iteration. As others have said - paid subscription service is to access pretty basic features that are thrown in for free with Boox and some other devices would be a killer for me in terms of buying it. Plus more generally how it is that well established device makers such as Lenovo or even Amazon manage to fall flat on their face once they move into e-ink territory. It shouldn’t be too hard for them to access and research the plentiful expertise and commentary out there - including of your good self! - on what a good e-ink device needs, etc. Thanks as ever for your time and effort and skill in making this video for the e-ink community!
@@MyDeepGuide don’t mention it - you are in a class by yourself in this area - with all due respect to certain other notable commentators and reviewers!
Thank you! I've been waiting for this review for so long... All the potential... Well, if they push out a dozen updates it could be amazing. But I don't get the subscription services. Like... 300,000 characters is... not even a serious book? Some students are required to read a LOT, so I don't get why a student who needs it would pay it, in a world where most platforms in and out of the e-ink variety do it well enough for free. I'd get it if it was a small company with limited resources... but Lenovo? The prices and quotas are waaay off.
It makes absolutely no sense. Almost as if someone decided "Ok, this has potential. How do we kill it immediately?" It's extremely strange, and severely miscalculated.

Excellent review, thank you very much! I have a question on the Search function within the Notebooks - from the video it seemed to be searching your handwriting but I wonder if it only worked because you had already converted that page to text using the hand writing recognition (and it's just searching text ratther than hand writing). If you search a notebook that has not been converted, does it sitll work by searching through your handwriting? That would be very impressive since it effectively has to convert all notebooks to text and then search but I thought that would take ages. Thanks!
Very informative review, I appreciate it. A little off-topic, but regarding the pen you were using. I've heard a lot of e-ink enthusiasts really like the Samsung S6 Lite. Do you see much difference between it and the Amazon premium pen? I have the latter and am just wondering if I should have gone with Samsung? I use the HOM2 religiously, however I like having a thicker nib for when making larger notes. Thanks in advance!
Hi Voja. Thanks for the very comprehensive review. I jist got mine today and was looking for some info on the metal ring that's included in the box. There's a leaflet that shows something that we should be doing with the pen on the ring but it's not clear and there's no text and just images. Can you also post something about the ring thing?
Hi Voja! Good work. Great in-depth review. Being quite objective, it is just terrible to include these extra services incredibly expensive to the intended users, which are students. Honestly, I don't see any reason to buy this device when other devices cover all features much better (such as boox and it's endless possibilities). To me, the quality of the device or the amazing writing experience are not sufficient strong reasons to get this device. Also, pray you don't have to call customer support 😢... Personally I have a remarkable 2, but I'm seriously considering getting the boox tab ultra c
Hello there, Sorry to put this question here but i am struggling to get an answer… I just bought a Lenovo Smart Paper and did the set-up this morning. Now that I am trying to transfer files from my Macbook and when I connect the USB I get the message "transfer files" on the smart paper but nothing shows up on my Macbook. I connected to an other computer (Dell) and it works perfectly. Does anyone know if I have to make a special action to connect the Macbook to the Smart Paper?
Since I love watching your videos, please allow me to make an observation; I think your lighting setup, when you show yourself, not a device, needs a bit of tweaking, currently, it's too dim & kind of depressing; maybe add another light source to the foreground, maybe to the background as well... Anyway, just my point of view. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
EXCELLENT review as usual very comprehensive , I agree with all your cons and especially the subscription, I think they will have to do a lot of work if they want to compete with Supernote and Remarkable which are their to main rivals for a simple device for Students although I am impressed with the Audio facility
Beautiful build quality... Looks great. Software hmmm... Pens look nice should be good to draw with and write basic notes .... I'd have to look into side loading third party e - ink apps to better the usability side of things.
firstly, love your channel .. I have an off topic question. Is an older device like the boox air plus 2 gets pen latency improvements with the updates ? or is it the same value as you got when you did your review of it ?
They usually remain in the same area, Boox devices don't get updates that improve pen latency in a significant way, as they are normally tunes up to deliver the best it can when they are released. In fact, so updates have slowed the latency down, not by a lot, but slowed it down, and that has happened on several devices.
Great review… I was really interested in getting this to replace or supplement my RM, but I think I’ll wait to see if the software gets improvements. On another note… when you went to your Google drive there was a folder that read Harley Benton Test. Are you planning a review of their guitars? I have a Squier Telecaster and a Harley Benton Rickenbacker knockoff. The Harley has excellent quality and sound. They’ve come a long way.
Personally i like the way the did the bookmarks, that works for me. The two deal breakers for me are: A) PDF formatting tool, that makes this device useless for PDF reading. B) Study mode, I love the split screen, i need that for work and multi-tasking, But i don't need a translator tool. It would be really cleaver if there was different study modes, so you can use the split screen to suit the subject you are working on, ex: doing calculations for maths, translation, or just simply taking side notes, etc..... if the notes can be save with the document or to a separate notepad that would be really useful for any student/ academic etc... Clever highlighting tool would be nice to have, but something I can live without. Unfortunately PDF formatting and study mode are a NO for me.
I've just read paulallen5351 review below, well worth reading if you are considering getting this device! It looks like its a half finished job. @My Deep Guide, it will be worth doing an update video if someday lenovo decides to fix this device. Thanks for your contributions!!!
So far they haven't addressed even the most basic issues, such as, if you write on a pdf in a zommed in state and then zoom out, the writing doesn't zoom with the page. And it's been like that since the release. So they should probably take it more seriously in the future, because updates in 2023 have been a joke.
@@MyDeepGuide Hi, today I received confirmation of the update schedule until March and I believe that by then we will have a nice device.... I gave suggestions which I believe are very Lenovo-like....
A good try, but the product cost and insane addon costs? They might get some business users, but I feel like most of them would be better off with a tablet anyway. Try again in a few years, Lenovo.
No.... I was so happy to see this device finally coming out, but it is underwhelming, expensive and need to pay for extras... They will sell 10 in US, that's why probably they didn't even bother market it there.

Wow, that charging per character thing is absolutely ridiculous on all counts. Lenovo should be ashamed. Any other tablet (or phone for that matter) has text-to-speech built-in for accessibility and will do it for free, and there's plenty of dictation apps that can do the reverse for a one-time charge (and most modern phones even have this feature built-in for free too, once again as an accessibility to the blind and hard-of-seeing), and then charging for machine-translation of all things?! When DeepL and Google Translate and BabelFish and other machine-translation services exist for FREE? Not to mention new advancements in A.I. which can also do translation. Are Lenovo out of their collective minds? That's just unreal. All this nickel-and-diming honestly makes me lose a ton of respect for the company. If they're gonna charge so much for the device itself, it should have all those features included out of the box, honestly. And then the piss-poor reading app is just fecal sprinkles on the shit sundae isn't it? Just...unbelievable. I really wanted to like this device; we could always use more competition in the E-ink market. But not like this. Not like this...

That's quite ironic considering Lenovo's customer service is pretty well regarded in India compared to other laptop brands.

Thanks for the info, I won’t buy it then! 👍
Kindly ask you to explain how I can sideload the kindle app on my smart paper device. Don't have any clue.

Having experience with Lenovo abandoning hardware support and let their customers on their own doesn't give me any trust in the future of this device

It's was basically dead on launch. An end-of-life device, at the start of its life. Silly.
