Now if only they didn't cost as much as a gaming upper mid range gaming PC. Fun fact, these things cost a fortune because only one single company is making these e-ink displays. It's actually super cheap tech that costs pennies to produce. But they sell it at ultra premium prices. And that kinda made sense like 2 decades ago. When e-ink was still super niche and specialized. It made sense when e-readers were just becoming a thing. Today, ereaders and e-ink screens for tons of applications are super widespread. But the entire industry is monopolized under one single coporation that is selling the screens for insanely premium prices. So 99% of ereaders we can buy are super expensive and come with cut corners all around because manufacturers are trying to keep their costs down. That's why our ereaders all feel like they're straight out of 2003. Imagine if these things were very affordable. Imagine how it would change learning, teaching, note taking, writing, drawing etc and how many kids it would encourage to learn/read. These things should be part of the school curriculum. Kids should be carrying these instead of super heavy bags of books that they can hardly carry.

@@sonicmastersword8080 It's actually 650 euro for just tablet with nothing added to it and the lower quality pen. If you upgrade to the better pen it's 700. The folio costs another 100 euro (150/200 depending on the material of the folio you choose), 250 if you want the keyboard one (so now it's 950 already. The real cheapest price is 800, with the cheapest folio (you're going to want a case/protective cover for something this large, fragile/thin and expensive) and the upgraded pen (you're likely buying it to take notes etc, why would you buy it without the good pen? Upgrading later will cost even more) And those are Euro prices, I imagine dollar prices are equal in amount. But converting Euro it would be even more expensive.
Only one main company makes them because it's such a niche piece of technology, along with this the expense comes from the complex manufacturing process and the face that there is a high chance of defects (which gets exponentially more likely the bigger the screen) and so there's alot of wastage.
If it's something that helps your productivity and you use it on the reg? I think it's worth it. My cell phone costs more than this and it's ruined my life.

i got one of these in 2022.. saved up for it during my internship. barely used it then, never use it now.. it just isn’t for me. i’m in grad school now and i prefer notebooks not just for the pen and paper but it’s just how my brain works where if i don’t physically see the notebook associated with what class i’m taking, it doesn’t exist. with this logic i’d need like four of these devices. i’ll see how i feel like using it when i start working - and if i feel like buying the subscription
I have one at work and I’ve only used it once. The only real use for me is if I have to take notes during a meeting, so I can quickly convert them into an email for whoever needs them. I don’t have to do that very often though. I’m the same as you with wanting real notebooks, if I take a note somewhere electronically I will forget it exists unless I have some sort of reminder set.

See a ton of people renting about this device. Well i can't really talk about this one, but I've used the remarkable 2 for multiple years now. Yes it technically is a worse tablet, but its worse in the right ways. Its worse in the things that would reduce your productivity, like yes you can't watch movies or use tiktok, but it's basically exactly what you want to stay productive. I've been using it for learning, note taking and so on, and i absolutely love it. And i also think this new pro version is a step ahead. Remarkables are expensive, but they also feel like a premium device. And in some ways it also is better than a tablet. I use it like 6 hours a day, and it's not eye straining. Also, with 6 hours of use, i get about 4 days of battery life (it's almost 4 years old now). And the feeling of writing is also just really good. I personally hate writing on normal screens, i don't like the feeling, but the remarkable 2 does really feel better. It may not be the device for everyone, but it is for some people. Also holy shit why did i write this essay.
see, its been good, but i think the touch screen could be improved because, unless its just me, sometimes i have a hard time getting the page to do what i want then i have to wait for it to do the clearing thing. its definitely nice for productivity sometimes, the only issue is, I'm at a computer screen when I'm using it so there's still distraction. i will praise it on the slim form factor because its the easiest thing to carry around.
It looks perfect for reading pdfs. The original kindle only works on black & white while I have ton of pdfs in color that takes your battery away and tires my eyes. Definitely a product to consider.
I can kind of understand, this device, but for that price. I don't know man. 649Eur for the tablet itself+marker included, the cover 99Eur and the keyboard 249Eur. For the complete package ~997Eur.
@BananaFrostHorseCave Man you guys are lucky even the reMarkable 2 ,here, costs us 449€. Also the pen is included for that 649€ (I was mistaken). Still even if it was without the pen you still would be looking at ~499€. The complete package for the reMarkable Paper Pro would still be ~997€. I could build a pretty great gaming PC with this kind of price tbh! :D It's weird bcs I thought that us Europeans would have it cheaper since the company was created/founded by a person in Norway.
@BananaFrostHorseCave Yeah and it sucks. Apple products in my country are super expensive even compared to other European countries. For example iPhone 16 128GB starts at 989€. 256GB - 1119€, 512GB - 1389€. iPhone 16 Pro 128GB starts at 1249€. 256GB - 1389€, 512GB - . iPhone 16 Plus 128GB - 1139€, 256GB - 1139€, 512GB - 1519€. iPhone 16 Pro Max starts at 256GB - 1519€, 512GB - 1759€, 1TB - 1899€. The Titanum versions are all 1999€. Except for the Natural one which is - 2009€ for some reason. A fully maxed out Macbook Pro 16 inhc with the M3 MAX and max storage option can cost ~4999€. The PS5 costs ~540€. The Slim - 425€. The cheapest prices of new consoles that I could find. I have seen them go up to 750€ for the PS5. The average person in my country earns ~1000Eur a month on paper. Also the minimum salary here is less than 8400€ a year. Food costs are also high, for example I need to pay at least 100-150€ for food, if I just bought anything I wanted it would easily reach 200+€. Medicine is also super expensive. It's really bad. Living is like hell. Finding an apartment for a normal price (less than 400€ a month) with everything (water electricity etc.) is almost impossible. There's also bed bug infestation in one city. Where 50% of homes have bed bugs and nothing is being done about this. My dorm that I was living in had mold on the ceiling, just a hole for ventilation. It was bad, but at least this year they fixed those things. I am not trying to live, but I am actually struggling to actually live.
Never understood how these guys are still in business - it’s remarkable indeed. This is just an alternative to an iPad with an Apple Pencil & Magic Keyboard, except you can do a whole lot more on an iPad, than a (un)remarkable tab! Correct me if I’m wrong, but it just seems to me like a solution looking for a problem!

I just love paper. I don’t care that I’m disorganised, I keep it all in folders, saving key notes digitally, then go through the folders once a year for curiosity. Ahh paper, my true love. Sorry, advertising companies
I have the Remarkable 2, it's super awesome! When I was in school, I could email in my assignments. Now that I'm out, I can sketch things and export them to my computer as SVGs or PNGs. I think it's well-worth the money since I've already got so much out of it!
@@LuigiTuazon Where are you going to find a pen and paper for less than a dollar in 2024? A decent pen alone is going to set you back at least $3. It's also at least $3 or $4 for a pad of paper these days as well. Maybe at a Dollar Tree you could find paper and pen for $1.25 each, but poor quality. Maybe you might get lucky on a back to school sale and get a notepad for $0.89 but that is becoming more and more less likely with inflation.
typing in the wellerman song over and over again was actually my exercise for getting to 120 wpm. When I read "winds blew", I knew exactly what you were typing
As someone who uses the reMarkable2, I love these things. I don't need colour (or the backlighting) but I can see how some people might. It's a bit expensive for what it is though.
My favorite part about e-ink displays is how disgustingly gray they look in reality, especially with how white they make them look in marketing. Thanks for showing off the grayness.
I bought mine during the pandemic after getting a certification in hypnotherapy, thinking it’ll be better than me turning a page of paper during my sessions. I can’t believe I paid full price for it but I do still use it and justified the price as a gift for finishing my certification. I also feel like I could use it more but it’s easier for me to carry it with my laptop and planner. I definitely want the keyboard now. I wonder if the remarkable 2 is compatible with it? 👀
So, this is the same technology as the Kindle. Like. Exact same. I think specifically the oasis? That's the one I have. However. For the longest time they couldn't figure out how to make it in color. Now, this has color which is very interesting to me. Which means that a kindle in color is an option now, and probably already in the making! An exciting day for people who use Kindles.
You misunderstood the assignment : It's e-paper, digital paper like screens for writers, students, engineering etc. It increases productivity via less distractions and doomscrooling.
Because we carry them now and bigger does not mean stronger. Material choice and engineering is the biggest thing. Let’s also not forget that people just like a device that looks good. Hence the iPhones design not being super sturdy, but people still love it without a case
Let's be real...nothing is like writing pen to paper yet. All these hype products will make you spend deep and you'll then justify/compromise for the money spent.
If you go by spec wise, then it's a great alternative to Kindle, smartphone and tablet. But I personally think that if you really value that authentic emotion, which won't harm your eyes, you better go with a physical journal, a physical pen, and a physical book. (whatever you want to read.) There is no need to buy the brand-new ones, rather go for the used. Once read, either keep or sell the same. For digital communication like messengers, emails, and calls & to listen to music, get a smart dumb phone, which can handle these stuffs. Get a compact camera to shoot pictures. Yes, I know that contrary to a smartphone, these stuffs like the journal, that pen, that book, the dumbphone and that camera will eat out more space and be heavier, but you will be out of the loop of the unnecessary internet stuffs like reels, useless videos, soon. Adapt to this lifestyle for a week, just for a week; you will have more fun than the smartphone world.
I can't use paper journals, I've tried. I'm dyspraxic and have wonky connective tissue, so my writing comes out illegible, or I need to take so long writing that it's pointless. Devices like this are a lifesaver, and are also easier on my ADHD too.
What do you mean, this has better specs than a phone or tablet? That just straight up isn't true. The specs are fine for what this is: a digital notebook/document viewer. But if it had the ability to do the things that a phone or tablet can do, then it would be drastically worse. Besides, what would it need extremely high-powered specs for? Like I said, the whole point is to take notes and view documents. It doesn't NEED uber-high specs.
Yes, you can access the internet. Just be aware that this is solely a notetaking/document-viewing device. You won't be able to use it for leisure activities like you can do on a phone or Apple/Samsung tablet. If all you want it for is for the notetaking aspect, then go for it if you have the money ig. Also, it requires a monthly subscription, so it's an unending price tag if you plan to use it for a while.
@@IvanhasonebraincellI know damn well if I was in school I wouldn’t be able to dump the amount of money they’re asking for into what’s basically a digital notebook. I’d rather just get an iPad
It's an E-book with extra steps. You know what's better? A tablet, especially the Samsung S8~10 Tab Ultra. Sure it's practically the same price but let's be honest, it will do the same thing as that paper pro and you can even play games, watch movies, doesn't have a screen delay slower than monitors from the 90's and IT HAS A BACK LIGHT! Shocking, I know. Oh yeah you can also attach a mouse and a keyboard to the tablet with a USB C.
The text to pdf conversion for notes and pen/keyboard hybridity are great too if you have to jot down pages and pages every day. E-ink notepads are also a great way to incorporate “realistic feeling” paper notetaking into a digital workflow without having to type everything up on your office PC after the fact.
@@dDraqoNn CRT montiors refresh rate doesn't really compare to modern lcd displays. The input lag is non-percivable and old 85hz CRT has motion clarity which is infinitely higher than a 240hz led. This is why high level old school gaming is still done on CRT screens.

Thank you for the essay. I'm here for it. You got me thinking I should probably get one now.
It looks perfect for reading pdfs.
The original kindle only works on black & white while I have ton of pdfs in color that takes your battery away and tires my eyes.
Definitely a product to consider.
E-ink is great for reading. Much less strain on the eyes. Longer battery life as well typically.
I can kind of understand, this device, but for that price. I don't know man. 649Eur for the tablet itself+marker included, the cover 99Eur and the keyboard 249Eur. For the complete package ~997Eur.
@BananaFrostHorseCave Man you guys are lucky even the reMarkable 2 ,here, costs us 449€. Also the pen is included for that 649€ (I was mistaken). Still even if it was without the pen you still would be looking at ~499€. The complete package for the reMarkable Paper Pro would still be ~997€.
I could build a pretty great gaming PC with this kind of price tbh! :D
It's weird bcs I thought that us Europeans would have it cheaper since the company was created/founded by a person in Norway.
@BananaFrostHorseCave Yeah and it sucks. Apple products in my country are super expensive even compared to other European countries. For example iPhone 16 128GB starts at 989€. 256GB - 1119€, 512GB - 1389€. iPhone 16 Pro 128GB starts at 1249€. 256GB - 1389€, 512GB - . iPhone 16 Plus 128GB - 1139€, 256GB - 1139€, 512GB - 1519€. iPhone 16 Pro Max starts at 256GB - 1519€, 512GB - 1759€, 1TB - 1899€. The Titanum versions are all 1999€. Except for the Natural one which is - 2009€ for some reason. A fully maxed out Macbook Pro 16 inhc with the M3 MAX and max storage option can cost ~4999€. The PS5 costs ~540€. The Slim - 425€. The cheapest prices of new consoles that I could find. I have seen them go up to 750€ for the PS5. The average person in my country earns ~1000Eur a month on paper. Also the minimum salary here is less than 8400€ a year. Food costs are also high, for example I need to pay at least 100-150€ for food, if I just bought anything I wanted it would easily reach 200+€. Medicine is also super expensive. It's really bad. Living is like hell. Finding an apartment for a normal price (less than 400€ a month) with everything (water electricity etc.) is almost impossible. There's also bed bug infestation in one city. Where 50% of homes have bed bugs and nothing is being done about this. My dorm that I was living in had mold on the ceiling, just a hole for ventilation. It was bad, but at least this year they fixed those things. I am not trying to live, but I am actually struggling to actually live.
So almost 1000€ for that I just buy myself an iPad. I’m sorry but this price is not justifiable by saying “it feels like paper”.
remarkable is just the apple of e-readers. Go with boox
yikes. definitely not.
I was about to say I would get this when I go to uni, but now that I see it's 800€ AND a monthly subscription... Man fuck that
Dude you literally are the best most talented marketing genius period lol no talk let the sound of paper do the selling f’ng love it

Never understood how these guys are still in business - it’s remarkable indeed.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it just seems to me like a solution looking for a problem!
this can actually improve my productivity at school but like the price is a little steep...
"Soon may the wellerman come,
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
Once when the toungin' is done we'll take our leave and go"
"She'd not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow 🎶"
(Huh!)
No line was cut, no whale was freed
The captain's mind was not of greed
And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow (huh)
For forty days or even more
The line went slack then tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
But still that whale did go (huh)
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)
I would've love this for taking notes in college. Keeps me away from all the distractions.
That's exactly what I use my Boox Tab Ultra C for, reading academic papers, articles, taking notes with keyboard or pen...
That's the only reason I would recommend it... otherwise, a tablet is way useful and profitable
Same, too bad it's almost $1000 just for the tablet
@@joshharrison9054 Not sure where you are, but in the US it's $580 for the tablet. All of the accessories & upgrades in this video sets it to about $1,050 though.

I know someone who uses one at school. It's an amazing product, but bro the price is huge !
I'd just buy a pen and paper with less than a dollar.
I have the Remarkable 2, it's super awesome! When I was in school, I could email in my assignments. Now that I'm out, I can sketch things and export them to my computer as SVGs or PNGs. I think it's well-worth the money since I've already got so much out of it!
@@LuigiTuazon Where are you going to find a pen and paper for less than a dollar in 2024? A decent pen alone is going to set you back at least $3. It's also at least $3 or $4 for a pad of paper these days as well.
Maybe at a Dollar Tree you could find paper and pen for $1.25 each, but poor quality. Maybe you might get lucky on a back to school sale and get a notepad for $0.89 but that is becoming more and more less likely with inflation.

I'll never own a product so nice... also why is bro in the bat cave from Dark Knight
Dude spent 90% of this short opening the damn box.
Probably because the box is the only thing actually made of paper
As someone who uses the reMarkable2, I love these things. I don't need colour (or the backlighting) but I can see how some people might. It's a bit expensive for what it is though.
THAT. it's Way expensive for what it is. I'd love that thing to take notes and sketches but not at that price. when it will be half off, maybe.
It's for a particular type of person. I use a lot of color when I'm sketching diagrams, and I hated how an iPad strained my eyes.

Rare instance of unboxing therapy dropping a therapeutic unboxing video
Back to your original style. Love it
Looks cool on paper. Congratulations! You've reinvented the Word Processor.
My favorite part about e-ink displays is how disgustingly gray they look in reality, especially with how white they make them look in marketing. Thanks for showing off the grayness.
"There once was a ship that put to sea" nahh bro is a true one 😂
The way it was unpacked so viscerally reminds me of the videos of people unpacking outdated military equipment

You've got to be pulling my leg! This thing is so awesome!
I can not think of a single issue this solves. It bridges a gap that doesn’t exist between paper and a laptop.
I bought mine during the pandemic after getting a certification in hypnotherapy, thinking it’ll be better than me turning a page of paper during my sessions. I can’t believe I paid full price for it but I do still use it and justified the price as a gift for finishing my certification. I also feel like I could use it more but it’s easier for me to carry it with my laptop and planner. I definitely want the keyboard now. I wonder if the remarkable 2 is compatible with it? 👀
829$ or an ipad and paper 🤔
An iPad has more functionality

Nah, I'd rather buy a paper mill xD
So, this is the same technology as the Kindle. Like. Exact same. I think specifically the oasis? That's the one I have. However. For the longest time they couldn't figure out how to make it in color. Now, this has color which is very interesting to me. Which means that a kindle in color is an option now, and probably already in the making! An exciting day for people who use Kindles.
I was waiting for him to say "remarkable" at the end 😢
Bro sounds like villager from Minecraft 🙂
Better and verrrry pricey! I checked one out. BUT IT IS BETTER THAN PAPER! Just can’t afford it right now. Congrats it’s a sweet unit!

I want one of these so badly but the price...
I never understood the fantasy with wanting your electronics paper thin. Wouldn't you want them thicker so they're physically stronger?
You misunderstood the assignment : It's e-paper, digital paper like screens for writers, students, engineering etc. It increases productivity via less distractions and doomscrooling.
@@DemShottayou didn’t read his comment at all did you?
you saw the device did it look paper thin to you?
Because we carry them now and bigger does not mean stronger. Material choice and engineering is the biggest thing. Let’s also not forget that people just like a device that looks good. Hence the iPhones design not being super sturdy, but people still love it without a case

I’d rather a tablet.
Let's be real...nothing is like writing pen to paper yet. All these hype products will make you spend deep and you'll then justify/compromise for the money spent.
If you go by spec wise, then it's a great alternative to Kindle, smartphone and tablet. But I personally think that if you really value that authentic emotion, which won't harm your eyes, you better go with a physical journal, a physical pen, and a physical book. (whatever you want to read.)
There is no need to buy the brand-new ones, rather go for the used. Once read, either keep or sell the same.
For digital communication like messengers, emails, and calls & to listen to music, get a smart dumb phone, which can handle these stuffs. Get a compact camera to shoot pictures.
Yes, I know that contrary to a smartphone, these stuffs like the journal, that pen, that book, the dumbphone and that camera will eat out more space and be heavier, but you will be out of the loop of the unnecessary internet stuffs like reels, useless videos, soon.
Adapt to this lifestyle for a week, just for a week; you will have more fun than the smartphone world.
Then how did u wrote this comment
@@GreatTaiwan laptop
If you go by specs this is absolutely trash compared to a similarly priced tablet
I can't use paper journals, I've tried. I'm dyspraxic and have wonky connective tissue, so my writing comes out illegible, or I need to take so long writing that it's pointless. Devices like this are a lifesaver, and are also easier on my ADHD too.
What do you mean, this has better specs than a phone or tablet? That just straight up isn't true. The specs are fine for what this is: a digital notebook/document viewer. But if it had the ability to do the things that a phone or tablet can do, then it would be drastically worse. Besides, what would it need extremely high-powered specs for? Like I said, the whole point is to take notes and view documents. It doesn't NEED uber-high specs.
When you buy paper with lag added:
I can see it was a worth while purchase for him to complete all of his important work about quick brown foxes and the billy of tea
Make all your videos like this. No talking just ASMR
I'm curious if it can acess the internet 🤔 Then this is a definite purchase 😊
Yes, it can. It can connect to your email and Google Drive.
Yes, you can access the internet. Just be aware that this is solely a notetaking/document-viewing device. You won't be able to use it for leisure activities like you can do on a phone or Apple/Samsung tablet. If all you want it for is for the notetaking aspect, then go for it if you have the money ig. Also, it requires a monthly subscription, so it's an unending price tag if you plan to use it for a while.
For the price point I’d rather just get an iPad… makes more sense
Some places like schools don't allow iPads so this is a good alternative
@@IvanhasonebraincellI know damn well if I was in school I wouldn’t be able to dump the amount of money they’re asking for into what’s basically a digital notebook. I’d rather just get an iPad
Or you could get a Samsung Tablet with a pen as well. Likely for much cheaper than the iPad.
Over exaggerating the the action noises inspires deep anger within my soul, but the pencil scratching on paper is most satisfying. You are forgiven.
Since when did unbox therapy started unboxing asmr. Loved It
It's an E-book with extra steps. You know what's better? A tablet, especially the Samsung S8~10 Tab Ultra. Sure it's practically the same price but let's be honest, it will do the same thing as that paper pro and you can even play games, watch movies, doesn't have a screen delay slower than monitors from the 90's and IT HAS A BACK LIGHT! Shocking, I know.
Oh yeah you can also attach a mouse and a keyboard to the tablet with a USB C.
Be gone with you nay sayer from the 21st Century. If the Emperor says he has new clothes…..
Monitors in the 90s had a MUCH faster refresh than they do now.
The text to pdf conversion for notes and pen/keyboard hybridity are great too if you have to jot down pages and pages every day. E-ink notepads are also a great way to incorporate “realistic feeling” paper notetaking into a digital workflow without having to type everything up on your office PC after the fact.
@@littlefrank90 i dont thinks so :D we didnt have 240hz monitors in the 90s
@@dDraqoNn CRT montiors refresh rate doesn't really compare to modern lcd displays. The input lag is non-percivable and old 85hz CRT has motion clarity which is infinitely higher than a 240hz led.
