Thanks for watching! One thing I should have done better here is I didn't cover the iPad Kindle app. You can actually write notes in the Kindle app, which is a cool development I overlooked and merits being mentioned here! So you don't even need the Scribe to do handwritten notes, but everything else is accurate 👍
Thank you! This is exactly the review I needed. Everyone kept going on about all of the features iPad has over Kindle but didn’t compare their overlap features. This is exactly what I needed!
The iPad is great, but for me I LOVE taking notes on an e-ink tablet. The Scribe is pretty good, if not limited in features right now compared to Remarkable, but a promising start. e-Ink is just a lot easier on my eyes and free from distractions. I have my iPhone or Macbook for anything that needs more.
Some people in the comments have slightly rude comments, which was surprising to me. I think you did a great job in comparing the things that you stated in the video which were particular to your use case. I appreciated the sound test as I have been scouring the internet trying to find someone who actually showcased the sound difference when writing and I am really grateful, so thank you!
I have a the iPad 12.9 M1 and there are settings for reading, do not disturb etc. , you have the paper light screen protector and of course the Kindle App, I'm sticking with my iPad.
Great video. Im looking to upgrade from my current kindle. Everything you mentioned was very helpful. Not gonna lie, the comments are crazy saying your comparing the kindle to the ipad when the title clearly stated comparison for the purpose of reading and annotating. Again great video.
I read a lot of Kindle books. And I have an iPad Pro 2024, which I love. I want to be able to take handwritten notes that are connected to inside parts of the Kindle book and then print those notes out connected to the highlighted portion separately. I can’t find the answer to this. Do you know what it is?
I’m okay with the scribe because I have lots of textbooks in the Amazon ecosystem. But because I like to draw, like colored pictures and that slamming Apple Pencil, I will ALWAYS have an iPad!
great learning video, question: would like to buy books online, copy and paste certain paragraphs, some photos and add notes, which iPad can you recommend that is least expensive. thanks for your efforts.
If you don’t need to annotate anything, basically every iPad will be able to do those basic things. Most places sell refurbs. Just be careful not to get like a 1st generation as the OS might no longer update (not positive though).
Not sure why you said the price point was the same the pro is like 2-3x different. But this was the BEST review i've seen yet. They have an amazon prime deal, debating it. But dissapointed that hte notes dont seem to have more options, and seems to still have that lagginess that all the kindles do :( Fwiw i sometimes think the LACK of apps is a positive. I often use my kindle to read that way i dont get self distracted But thanks for hte re view!
Reading is nicer on the scribe and the warmth and brightness settings are great. It’s especially better in sunlight compared to an iPad but the iPad will have the better resolution overall of course for other things.
It's not a good comparison, iPad to Kindle scribe. The scribe is for a bookworm that needs and want to anotate on the go. While iPad is waaay more focused on digital art or content creation.
The Scribe is certainly not a full replacement for an iPad of course. This is aimed at comparing the overlapping features to eachother. Basically; would someone who had an iPad still consider a scribe or would someone considering a scribe get enough from the iPad.
i understand some people do get something out of this type of content. Here's me playing devil's advocate for this entire video. The Kindle Scribe is an intentionally single, or in this case dual, focused device. You can read, you can take notes. I don't think the Scribe is trying to compete with the iPad. This video would make more sense if you were comparing something like an Onyx Boox device to the iPad lineup. Just my two cents.
Yeah the scribe definitely isn’t trying to replace the iPad entirely. I mostly just made this to showcase the differences in case someone only wanted a reader/writer tablet. IPad all day though if you want pure value for your dollar.

Are you saying that you can actually WRITE notes in the kindle app? I know you can type, but WRITE? Pray 🙏 tell, HOW?
@@pagandeva2000 I don't think this is possible either?

Your lesson was very easy to understand. Thank you for teaching me so kindly.
Thanks Sakura, that means a lot to hear, my goal is always to make the videos easy to follow and understand for everyone.

Yeah less is more a lot of the time! I’d have to rewatch to see what I said about price, I don’t recall.
Can I read my pirated epubs on Kindle scribe by sideloading ? Please tell
Haha I don’t feel right answering 😂
which one has better display bro?

Did nobody teach you how to hold an pen?
lol I guess not
Ban anyone who thinks this is a fair comparison 🤪
Which parts are unfair? Obviously the iPad is more powerful but for a handwriting/reading solution, I think they are comparable
