    My dude, great video comparison. One thing that jumped out at me, and it was very surprising actually, was how ASMR the writing sound samples were. Like for real dude. You could be making videos of just that on repeat, and I'd be down for that. So soothing and relaxing.

    • @rantsabouttechnology

      I can relate to that. There are so many sounds that people make ASMR on that totally catch me off guard too. Like a hidden realm you didn't know was there. I get it.

    Amazing review! Ijust hate when reviewers say "It depends". That says absolutely nothing. What's the battery life on different use cases with different settings? You can have a very simple table to illustrate the ranges and dedicate 10 seconds to go through it. Having a nice bloke saying "it depends" it's very frustrating. Cheers! :)

      Because, everyone says PPI (pixels per inch), when it should actually be DPI (dots per inch). There aren't any pixels in eInk tablets just pigment capsules that should be measured the same way newspaper printing refers to their resolution... DPI.

    Noticed alot of screen movement on the 4c during your writing experience section. Screen bouncing up and down as you put pressure on it. That seems super annoying to me, does that happen on the RM pro?

      It doesn't have a fuzzy screen in person. I think you might be referring to the matte writing surface, which is extremely pleasant, both visually and to the touch. It makes it more like looking at paper than any other device I've used.
