    You are an absolute gem. These reviews are spot on. I have owned the remarkable 2, the NA3C and TabX; all of which I use(d) religiously and heavily everyday in tandem with my career. You are the most balanced reviewer of these devices out there. The NA3C is indeed an amazing product. I am patiently waiting for a TabX in color with higher Dpi. BOOX is on to something great and the learning curve for the software is more than worth it. RM2 is a masterclass in advertising but little more than that.

    I recently got a Note Air 3 and have been very happy with it. I still use a Nova Air for reading epubs but the air is much better for pdfs and note taking which was often very cramped on my nova air. Still not entirely convinced the color is worth having to always have the backlight on for me, but thanks for this video.

  • @NeilLavitt
    @NeilLavitt 2 месяца назад +1

    I received my Note Air 3C last week and have slowly gotten to grips with its depth of features. As you said, there is a steep learning curve and, for me, some ragged edges to the way this device works. For instance, there was immediate confusion around using a highlighter with PDFs and notes. Should we call it a highlighter rather than a marker and let us adjust the transparency slightly?
    Battery life was the big debate for me in buying. Long life would mean I could almost remove the worry of charging, the flexibility of colour, and better refresh technology. I will always worry about battery life, but I don't need to, as life has been pretty good so far. I found the auto power off after 15 minutes of default annoying as the power-up time is too long. However, standby seems to consume very little energy. I am not interested in emailing on this device; notifications are set to DND.
    Other than that, this has been superb. I love that it is different from the iPad, yet effective and powerful. The writing feeling is great.
    Thanks for your videos. You, My Deep Guide and Brandon Boswell's work have been invaluable.

  • @karlmunford7000

    If the longevity of the _'Note Air 3C'_ wasn't greatly hampered by a rapid battery cycle-count from an energy hungry machine, it would be in the top few of my book.
    Maybe if they gave it a replaceable battery? Hmm... now there's an idea.

    Great Video, I would love to see the Air 3 vs reMarkable 2, since they are both B&W only, and I think they both do the full screen refresh only, and how is the "pen on paper feel" experience on the two of them?? I really like the idea of color, BUT I have to wonder if the stuff requiring color couldn't be done better (at least as well) on my Samsung Android tablet! Great Video, Thanks for all your work, sorry to be immediately asking for more.

  • @StarcraftbyMatt
    @StarcraftbyMatt Месяц назад +1

    Excellent coverage Kit. I was wondering if you feel the screen film that comes with the 3C causes color degradation when compared to the Tab Ultra C Pro? I really like the feel of the film on my 3C (and, in my opinion the better touch sensitivity) though I've found myself using the Ultra C Pro more often when I'm not specifically taking handwritten notes.

    • @KitBetts-Masters
      @KitBetts-Masters  Месяц назад +1

      Hiya, I don't think colour shift. But a slight loss of sharpness.
      I'm the same as you, really enjoy the Note for... Notes. But TUC Pro for everything else. Maybe a long thing like this for TUC pro?

  • @maenibaeni

    Thanks for the in depth review, I appreciate it. When taking notes with the Note Air 3C in the backfolded case, is there magnetic distortion anywhere on the screen? I'm currently taking my lab notes on a tab ultra, mostly in a backfolded keyboard case, but the magnetic distortion on several spots on the screen annoys me to no end.

    We need a black & white version with BSR at 12" size. That is the perfect balance, allowing you to take notes and read documents without ghosting. Also, we need Android 12 - 14, and a faster processor, like the Tab Ultra C Pro.
    (The Tab X does some of that, but it has Android 11, older processor, is too big, and does not have paperlike feeling when writing.)

    I've got the Note Air 3C since november and I absolutely love it. One thing I can't figure out is how much storage space is being used: I've over 30 gigs used, but only 7gb used by apps. I've navigated all the storage folder, installed a file explorer to check system folders but nothing. I've no idea why all that storage space is gone. What's you experience with this. Cheers!

    About usb c OTG testing, I suppose they have only usb 2.0 implemented so you cannot use video signal directly through the type-c port like many of the mid-tier android phones. The workaround to that is using a docking station that supports displaylink and so you can pass video through their driver from the usb 2.0 protocol. Could you try and see if the displaylink driver is available at playstore? Thanks for the wonderful reviews!

    I just recently found your channel (less than 5 days ago) as a result of a “light bulb” moment while taking notes for work. And I must say, I really appreciate your approach to content delivery; it’s proving to be a valuable resource in determining which e-ink tablet may be best suited for my needs.
    I love writing and my penmanship could be considered as very good; I’m frequently complimented. I say this to explain that my primary concern is for the pen to paper feel. I typically use fine point pens and this has pushed me towards the Supernote Nomad. I’m not concerned for color or reading, only note taking and referencing over a long period of time in a very efficient manner. From what I can tell, it appears that the Supernote may be best suited for my needs and workflow, however, this review of the Note Air 3 has me wondering. The size is a bit more attractive than the Supernote yet, the Supernote would have the advantage when using in conjunction with my laptop. I’m willing to sacrifice some space and go with the Note Air 3 BW if the pen to paper feel is close enough to the Supernote. If time permits, I would really appreciate and value your input as a new subscriber.
    Thank you

      Sounds like you are best waiting a month or so for the Supernote A5X2. It'll be similar to the A6X2, certainly in writing feel and software, but just that bit more room to enjoy your writing.

      What are the biggest feature differences for you?

    • @bobsonian

      @@WMARUoriginal The biggest difference for software is the note taking features (it's so easy to create a table using the AI tools), it's easy to move notebooks around and sort everything, it's very easy to upload PDFs. I'm a Software Engineer so having colour is great for diagrams and reading tech books that have colour diagrams.
      The biggest difference overall is the hardware, on the Scribe I was having freezing issues after about 30 pages of notes and at times I couldn't use the pen unless I opened a menu or had to hard reset.
      I believe this was down to the 1gb of memory which leads me to believe the features I wanted won't happen due to that limitation.

    Thank you for the great detailed review! One thing I found out from scanning Amazon user reviews on Note Air3 is the noticeable latency. Do you know how does the latency found on Air3 compare with that from a Supernote? Without time stamps on the video, I didn't get chance to find out if you have compared the functiions of Air3 with those of Supernote. Do you recommend Air3 over Supernote? (I roughly recall I have seen a video from you recommending Supernote as the best one as well.)
