The reMarkable 2 is reMarkable's slimmest tablet, measuring less than 0.2 inches thin. The aluminum frame houses a 10.3" monochrome E-Ink display with a 1872x1404 resolution (226 dpi). The display is protected by an etched glass surface which does an excellent job of mimicking the texture of paper. Many users believe that it has a better feel than even the higher-end reMarkable Paper Pro, which has a harder, more friction-free surface.
The bundles include your choice of reMarkable's digital stylus - Marker or Marker Plus - and folio - Book Folio or Type Folio. The Marker is weighted to mimic the feel of a real pen and the tips provide the appropriate amount of friction to maintain the realism. The Marker Plus adds eraser functionality. The Book Folio is a magnetic book-like cover that protects your tablet even while it's being used. Choose the polymer weave for durability and easy maintenance or genuine leather for that premium look and feel. The Type Folio goes one step further by integrating a slim keyboard.
Why get a reMarkable tablet?
reMarkable's claim to fame is in its paper-writing experience and note-taking capabilities. reMarkable tablets do a superb job of mimicking the feel of pen on paper thanks to its combination of a textured glass surface and the soft felt-like tips of the digital stylus. But that's where the similarities end. Handwritten notes are accurately translated into typed text with a single tap. Unlike physical media, you'll never run out of paper and you'll be able to resize, undo, cut, copy, or create perfect lines and circles to your heart's content.
When you're done, reMarkable makes it easy to file your notes away in an efficient and legible manner. reMarkable tablets comes pre-loaded with a variety of lined and dotted templates, to-do lists, and weekly planners to keep your thoughts organized. Your finished notes can be sorted into separate folders and tagged for easy search queries. Your notes are saved in the cloud and accessible from other devices through reMarkable's mobile and desktop apps. Both locally stored and cloud files are encrypted, but you can also set up an optional passcode if you need more security.
Is the reMarkable 2 a good e-reader option?
Although reMarkable's digital notebooks are unsurpassed in their digital writing functionality, they're not really the best option if you're purely looking for a universally compatible digital reader. That's because you cannot easily view MOBI/AZW or DRM-protected EPUB content. That includes any eBooks available on Amazon Kindle as well as Libby, which is used by most public libraries. The reMarkable OS also doesn't support third party apps, so there's no way to download a Kindle or Libby app like you would on a standard tablet or mobile device. If you're looking strictly for an e-reader, then you're best off sticking with a Kindle tablet, Apple iPad, or your smartphone.
