I think with all the recent e-readers that have come out it would be a good time to release a “top 5” or something video of the “best” e-readers on the market now. Good video! 👍🏻
Received mine today and couldn’t be more excited--I absolutely love the form-factor--with it’s larger size (seems very light) it’s easier to read, and very comfortable. And notes adds a whole layer of coolness that we’ll see if it can replace my reMarkable. Yes, I know all about the 100% focus with reMarkable…but this is very similar-no apps, just reading and writing. Love it so far!
@@kaisong5004 I have an Onyx Nova Air C. For me in functionality a plus from Onyx is the Amazon cloud storage sync. The sticky note scribbling is also nice, since in Onyx I need to split screen to use the notebook app for this.
I'm so excited about this device!!! On Monday I started the trade in process to get the Scribe in place of my Paperwhite 5 and the Scribe will get here Friday. I thought I would be keeping the Paperwhite for 5-10 years with no real need to upgrade (Kindle Keyboard was good for about 7 years) but as soon as I saw this one, I knew that this was the Kindle for me. I hope that it really does feel good to write on the Kindle Scribe and that I like it as much as I am hoping. Another super exciting thing is that standard manga has a diagonal size of just over 9 inches which means that having a 10.2 inch screen (diagonal size) is big enough to read manga at full size without having to fuss about zooming in or panel view.
I would like to see more details about the note taking in regards to notebooks and how they are organized. Can you do a video on that? If it's anything similar to the way Remarkable 2 does it, then I'm going to get this and replace my Remarkable 2. That tablet looks great.
Wow Peter. You’re very forgiving. So compared to others you can’t write in the margins of the book’s. So it is difficult to reference your notes. PDF’s are nearly impossible to navigate and to write on. It doesn’t text cover writing. No, this is scriptable as a writing tablet until they fix the interface. Which at the sorts of kindle updates, maybe in 3 years.
Here is the language from the refreshed Amazon scribe webpage that explicitly talks about future updates; they should have led with that!: “Coming Soon: Kindle Scribe provides regular, free software updates that include new features. In the coming months, Kindle Scribe will add more writing tools, including new brush types and copy/paste tools, additional notebook organization options, and the ability to send documents to Kindle Scribe directly from within Microsoft Word.”
It is a beautiful gadget for those with a comfortable budget, and that will serve as a tool for their work. For the rest of us, the Kindle Paperwhite 11 is more than enough for the use we give it. This type of device is designed beyond just being an electronic book for leisure and learning, as it is also intended to be an interactive and creative tool.
I am really happy Amazon has released this project as I have missed using my Kindle DX all the time since the removal of 3G from the model. This made whispersync none functional
Another thing to consider is that this is a big device it's hard to read for longer times with screen of this size than paperwhite... Would be hard to lay around in bed while reading on this... But advantage of being able to write and read mangas on big screen are also quite somethong i like
Honestly, wasn't expecting that right out of the gate. Hopefully, they will continue with robust software improvements. I sure do love Supernote's everlasting nib…
Idk, this seems way too big for me, and note taking seems pretty useless also. I would love it if they came out with an 8 inch Kindle Oasis, I think that would be the sweet spot for both reading books and for manga, as well as being more portable. Bigger isn’t always better. 🤷♂️
actually 9 inch would be perfect for manga, but there isn't any e-ink screen of that size, and I prefer 10 over 8 due to not having to zoom, some mangas require you to zoom even on a 8 inch device, this makes this device to the new best manga reader at least on the hardware side of things, unfortunately you can't install android apps like tachiyomi. Man the absolute best device would be an android 9 inch e-ink 300dpi one but what can you do.
I caved in and bought it yesterday. Battery is fantastic given its size and compared to the Paperwhite and Oasis and better than KOBO Sage. I was able to download my library of 1300+ faster than my other kindles. My oasis and paperwhite battery drain is so much worse. love it
I will have to pass until the device allows me to scribble directly on my e-books. I think they’re on the right track with this, but if I’m going to pay for something that my iPad can pretty much do, they’ll have to include that feature.
@@Maxiiim02 with Kindle apps on either Android or ios, the ebook and audible works together, so that you can read and listen at the same time. That’s called the immersion reading per Kindle.
Looks good, the templates are an underrated feature. The size and the price are a big no from me - ideal size is going to be the same size as a physical notebook, and ideal price is much lower. Cool review though.
Hi guys, just one comment … did you try to put a kindle oasis beside a kindle scribe and check text quality? I have to say that even if resolution is top on both devices, the scribe has quite notably less contrast, the black is kind of dark gray if compared to the black text on oasis, the frame of the scribe follows the same darkness of the e-ink dark text, making it leas apparent, but the same happens to oasis, the oasis frame has the same darkness thank oasis e-ink dark text.. and I can tell the two frames are not the same dark at all, being the scribe quite less black than the oasis. Maybe it’s a side effect of the Wacom pen layer? Making dark less dark on scribe?
Looking at this it definitely excels as a reader, but the note taking looks like it is just missing the mark. I don't know if it's just the pen or the software?
Can you import books from a PC on this? Also, can you export handwritten notes? This seems to be a great device, but if they lock you to their store, it's useless in my opinion, I'll stick to the boox air 2 😊 I really see myself using the handwritten notes feature on a book, I already write a lot in the margins.
I have one and I am still getting used to it. I bought it mostly for the larger screen I doubt I will use the writing feature. The big screen is nice but I so far have found it a bit awkward. If held close say 1 1/2 feet it is like trying to read something on a computer monitor that spans the full screen. I find myself loosing what line is next. I increased the font size and that helped a lot. I do like that I can have more text on the screen and still have a larger font. I like the warm background light and I think I will try the dark mode. I'm still having a bit of buyer's remorse but I am finding more thing that I like about it.
hmm still dont know if you can read and write your notes in the bottom of the screen while you are reading. Not just sticky notes. I like to write quotes during read regardless on position. From your review I can only see notes which are placed in specific position on book. I do not want that. I might have written 2 notes while reading like 10 pages. Can the notes window be open for continuos reading and then be saved as a separate note, not positioned on page?
The feature that would set it apart from paper, where I always run out of space, would be word-processing. Recognizing words and lines (even without OCR) so I can delete or insert with paragraph reflow. Merge and split paragraphs and kind of endless paper, with pages ending after whatever last line fits. Without that it would seem rather primitive!
My Oasis would run down in a day or two until I saw a fix for the battery problem on UA-cam. Just reset it and the battery life went sky high back to normal. :)
Mine hasn't arrived yet but I would bet not natively (via USB transfer), but emailing epubs will likely work (like all other Kindle since the August Send to Kindle update!).
Wish I can directly note ON the book, or support multi-platform note software, but it just not there yet… Not sure if there’s will add new software features to it
I agree…I have even said…that for the price, I’d rather buy a Boox. The only thing that would keep me from completely switching over, is that the Kindle app often doesn’t work well. And…all of my books are through Amazon.
So do I. I think that, if the Kindle were a tidbit cheaper, it would be a no brainer, specially if you’re used to have one. But, if you already have a Android device (like me, an Onyx Boox Note Air 2), it would be a downgrade.
Honestly, as an avid BOOX fan I’m still let down by the fact that the so called “Ultra” device doesn’t have 300 PPI. Considering this, the Scribe will probably be my next device of choice.
@@Maisonier The device is meant to read & annotate, for that screen clarity is incredibly important, no one is using an ePaper device for media consumption anyways.
For e-notes, it matters a great deal Pens like fountain pen, brush, even highlighter, all have pressure sensitivity in the real world and that does not translate to the actual unit itself
We have three comparison videos and a PDF video queued up We're just waiting for the main videos to kind of stew a little bit before we release them Lots of writing feel comparisons coming up soon :-) thank you
Is the note function really that useful? A kindle already allows taking notes, marking text, in case of the app even in different colors. That leaves writing and drawing. Here, it does not look versatile enough (shading) for any half serious drawing. And who wants to write that much on e-ink by hand with a stylus that this is the preferred format or needs to write much without access to other means that a bulky pad would be the solution? Looks more like a gimmick.
Yeah I'm sure it has more sharpeness but I was talking about contrast and black levels. Also the sharpness can be reduced a lot by the grit of the screen protector that those devices have to improve writing.
your description area says "The Amazon Kindle Scribe is likely the best digital note taking device on the planet". and yet, in your review in the Notes section, you start out by saying that "Surprisingly, the note taking section and capabilities of this unit, it's actually really small...there's not really a whole lot you can do with it". so which is it?
We updated that. I have no idea who wrote that, our company has 40 people in it across five countries, so sometimes people update display pictures, images, descriptions, etc. You are correct, this most definitely is not the greatest e note on the planet
Getting one delivered tomorrow. So can do our own review here. I think the real competitor is the Onyx Boox Tab Ultra - which is an Android E-Ink tablet and has a camera as well.
I have the Tab Ultra and it is a different class of device. It is a full Android based tablet that supports any app. Screenwise the Scribe is perfect but the Tab is just more useful and practice. A Tab with a scribe screen would be the perfect device for me.
I doubt they have had it long enough to drain a full charge! :D From the Amazon listing it sounds like it will vary a lot depending on your usage as well (weeks of writing vs. months of reading).
Why didn't you see this coming? Do you lack imagination? It's an OBVIOUS move for Kindle. After the success of Remarkable and the fact that Amazon refused to allow the kindle app on Remarkable clearly indicated they were developing a competing device. I'm actually surprised Amazon didn't try to acquire Remarkable as Jeff can afford it and their technology is still ahead of the competition in key areas like pressure sensitivity and tilt for a real drawing experience. I hope that Remarkable 3 is underway and that they finally get the kindle app so they can compete.
because amazon doesnt innovate or trailblaze anything. They were pre-dated by sony several years, they didnt do glowlight first, audio, TTS, color, ... i mean, yeah, we are right. No one saw it coming. None of the big 3 even so much as entertained the Note taking world until 2021 with the elipsa even though stylus note taking has been around since 2010 (sony prs 350) and actually before so... no, it was NOT an obvious move.
I’m not a note taker so this isn’t on my radar. But, if they took this form factor and shrunk it down to the size of the Oasis and kept the page buttons, I’d buy it instantly. I love the Oasis screen and size but HATE the back side bump.
I had commented on @ChalidRaqami video that the Scribe doesn't have a light sensor, referencing your video. He sent me a video of him using a flashlight on the screen, with auto brightness on, and it clearly changing brightness in response. Just a heads up.
windows invested so much into handwriting years ago but no eink touchscreen device ever came with it. separately, there are these "digital writer devices", if only this Kindle had support for Bluetooth keyboard and proper OS/apps for note taking, would have been enough to put them out of business too
instead, simply too expensive, $350 and most features at best will be released later. they had years to develop at least proper apps if not full android support
You covered everything except what I really wanted to see: single and 2-column text pdf, which is the entire reason why I ordered this.
Lol same.
Wait, what’s that? Didn’t see it in the Amazon product description…
Wow I ordered it without knowing I could do that. That's a huge plus
Hey, can you please explain more about this?
What has been your experience now
I wish that they would release a 10in Kindle Paperwhite. I don't need the pen or the note-taking. Good review!
this is basically a paper white 10 inch, theres no reason to use that pen or those features.
@@rail7646 yeah. I price is kind of high though. The pen technology is adding to the current price.
Thank you for approaching this as Reader device before Note Taking device! Most reviews are doing it notes first and disregarding reading.
This is only the start as they will be adding more functionality over the next year. I like how fast it is.
I think with all the recent e-readers that have come out it would be a good time to release a “top 5” or something video of the “best” e-readers on the market now. Good video! 👍🏻

If they got Microsoft OneNote working well on the Scribe, I'd use its note-taking capabilities for my work. Thanks for the informative video.
Have you looked at the Meebook P10 Pro? I'm not familiar with One Note, but that tablet is full android and can get One Note.
@@maryhazlett Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to check it out. Cheers.
Dude, they have nothing. Is almost a beta device.
I’m curious how large the note taking canvas is? Can you pinch and zoom while taking notes or is it one size?
I have an Oasis that I'm very happy with, but honestly if this added page turn buttons I might be tempted to get the Scribe for the larger screen.
Ugh, I hate that you cannot hide the sidebar completely. I want a clean book-like page experience.
Not even close to Supernote and Onyx Boox capabilities. Disappointed.
Honestly, wasn't expecting that right out of the gate. Hopefully, they will continue with robust software improvements. I sure do love Supernote's everlasting nib…
I undertood now, this is the MVP 🤣
I like a kindle oasis with larger screen instead of scribe. With this price tag, onyx have better offer

I was wondering about this, too.
Waiting for mine to arrive !
I'm so excited for it
Looking at this it definitely excels as a reader, but the note taking looks like it is just missing the mark. I don't know if it's just the pen or the software?

It seems it does not come with the lasso function for note taking.
Is the note function really that useful? A kindle already allows taking notes, marking text, in case of the app even in different colors.
That leaves writing and drawing. Here, it does not look versatile enough (shading) for any half serious drawing.

How is the contrast of the screen compared to boox and remarkable 2?
How is the pdf reading experience?
Sounds like it's superior since it's 300 DPI
Yeah I'm sure it has more sharpeness but I was talking about contrast and black levels. Also the sharpness can be reduced a lot by the grit of the screen protector that those devices have to improve writing.

I had commented on @ChalidRaqami video that the Scribe doesn't have a light sensor, referencing your video. He sent me a video of him using a flashlight on the screen, with auto brightness on, and it clearly changing brightness in response. Just a heads up.
I've just got mine and I can't even view my book library or anything! Please help!
Spy x Family - I see you are a man of culture ! ;)

Thanks.
Onyx boox es el mejor. Sus 300PPI es lo único resaltable.
10:59 I was very distracted by the contents of the page you stopped at in the book! I wonder if anyone else noticed 🍆😉
can i turn pages by regular bluetooth remote
Yg penting bisa buka PDF..
windows invested so much into handwriting years ago but no eink touchscreen device ever came with it. separately, there are these "digital writer devices", if only this Kindle had support for Bluetooth keyboard and proper OS/apps for note taking, would have been enough to put them out of business too
instead, simply too expensive, $350 and most features at best will be released later. they had years to develop at least proper apps if not full android support
