✨ Exquisite hardware design
...I think that it's really remarkably well, pun not intended, honestly not intended, this one. Okay, exquisitely designed hardware design. I'm really blown out of the water...
👀 Innovative and original engineering
...I'm a sucker for good engineering and for innovating engineering. This is something that I really, really like... Watch in video
💼 Excellent build quality
...I also, personally, prefer this one simply because most of my light is coming from the top, especially in indoor situations, and Remarkable 2 doesn't have a front light, so, therefore, my surface is more lit this way... Watch in video
🔍 Attention to detail in design
...The only thing that I wish they've incorporated was that tilt functionality. Then, it would have been a freaking masterpiece. As it is, it's really, really good. It's exceptionally good and introduces something completely new...
🎯 Comfortable typing experience
...The keyboard itself, as you've seen, it works good, just don't do this, don't write like that, don't do that, always use this kind of position. This is really, really important... Watch in video
🌐 Integrated environment
...For me, the integration is made in such a way that it makes perfect sense. And it's not like an artificial kind of scrammed in thing. It does make sense and it does work... Watch in video
📖 Intelligent content awareness
...I love the fact that they have added this, and that you have content awareness between the typed text and the handwriting. This is something that is crucial, and it makes it a lot more usable than it used to be... Watch in video
🔒 Improved user safety measures
...They've implemented the failsafe so that you can't type while you are writing, which is great... Watch in video
🚀 Satisfying and modern user experience
...The way it folds, the way it unfolds, the way you use it, the way you interact with it, the quality of it, the typing of it, the sound of it when you're typing on it, the typing experience, what you can do with it, what you can't do with it, the linking between the typing and the handwritten and marked up notes, very, very important software point... Watch in video
🎉 Complements the Remarkable experience
...But is it a sexy addition to Remarkable? Yeah, sure as heck, yeah. And does it work well? Yep, it does, and it's surprisingly comfortable... Watch in video
🤔 💰 Very expensive product
...It costs 200 USD and its launch availability was botched... Watch quote in video
🤔 🔄 No portrait functionality
...they should have added another addition, and they could have added it simply by having a rotational plate here on the back... Watch quote in video
🤔 🧲 Adds significant weight and thickness
...So, not only does the comfort and luxury of typing for the Remarkable 2 come at a very hefty price, but it also comes at a very hefty addition of weight, and very hefty addition of width for the entire package... Watch quote in video
🤔 🎭 Limited template compatibility
...The typed content is not going to match all of the templates. And they do say so... Watch quote in video
🤔 🔧 Limited typing system shortcuts
...there's no way to kind of navigate through the system using the directional keyboards and things like that... Watch quote in video
🤔 ✏️ Can't adjust width of text
...There’s no way for us to actually adjust the width of the typed paragraph... Watch quote in video
🤔 🚫 No auto-wake up or auto-sleep
...“…auto sleep and auto wake up function, unfortunately, is still not going to be an option... Watch quote in video
🤔 🚚 Mishandled launch and availability
...There's zero reason to do things that way. If Remarkable knew, and they had to know at some point, that there's going to be a manufacturing or delivery delay...
🤔 🔦 No caps lock indication
...there's no caps lock indication at all, and even though there's no LED here... but a simple overlay... would be a normal, you know, thing to have, but we don't have that... Watch quote in video
🤔 🧷 Fewer safeguards for the pen
...doesn't have any kind of safety safeguards to keep that pen in place... Watch quote in video
🤔 📉 Fragile potential over long term use
...that might be prone to failure after a very extended period of time... Watch quote in video
🤔 🕘 Limited keyboard and hand interaction
...but the failsafe mostly works... while I was writing down there, my writing position means that my keyboard and my workable is going to say, yoo-hoo... Watch quote in video
🤔 🚫 No cancel order option during delays
...allow people to actually cancel their orders and get their money back if they choose to do so, which is, to my knowledge, not something that you can do at the moment... Watch quote in video
🤔 💻 Needs 3.2 firmware to function
...the type folio keyboard. So, that's something that you have to do out of the gate. You can't use it unless you have 3.1... Watch quote in video
🤔 🤑 Hard to justify at $200 price point
...Is it worth $200? Nope. But what can you do? I mean, if there's no alternatives, there's nothing you can do... Watch quote in video

Product review of reMarkable 2
Sentiment: Mixed
The Remarkable 2 is an impressively designed and responsive digital paper tablet that excels in note-taking and document management, though it falls short in storage capacity and lacks some necessary features like Bluetooth and a caps lock.

📝 Improved latency and responsiveness
...The impression of the responsiveness of the Remarkable 2, why it blew my mind? Well, it's not just a subjective thing. Here are the numbers. It's more than twice as fast as the Remarkable 1 was. And that's pretty freaking amazing... Watch in video
🚀 Sleek and futuristic design
...It feels like something new, like a weird hybrid between super fancy, futuristic type of notebook that just came from space and from future. That's basically how it feels... Watch in video
✨ High build quality
...Details of the craftsmanship and all of it about this device is absolutely mind-blowing. And now I've been using it for a little over a week now, and I can't really get used to how sci-fi, how spacey, how modern, and how exclusive, and how really, really awesome this device feels... Watch in video
📏 World's thinnest tablet
...This is the world's thinnest tablet at the moment, August 2020, at 4.7 millimeters. And we'll touch upon that a little bit later on as well... Watch in video
🧲 Magnetic pen attachment
...The only thing you have is a magnet, invisible magnet here, for the pen so that it can snap on nicely, as shown in the unboxing video... Watch in video
🔋 Long battery life
...Basically, that means that you can get theoretically 14 hours of writing time on a single charge. So if we are to actually reach that two-week claim, that means that you should write on average about two hours per day... Watch in video
🌟 Enhanced screen contrast
...I think that the contrast, how it's been calibrated is better than on Remarkable 1 or it's the surface that's on top of the screen, but either way, the end result is that the screen itself seems a little bit clearer and sharper and more contrasty, so to speak... Watch in video
🌐 USB-C compatibility
...Also, one other piece of good news is that we have a USB-C connector here as opposed to micro USB on the Remarkable... Watch in video
📁 Effective document management
...Fairly standard type of stuff that actually works. Folders, you actually access the folder structure very easily by simply tapping once, and then you go in there... Watch in video
📰 Read on Remarkable Chrome extension
...And what that does is actually it makes it possible for you to send a web page that you're reading directly to your Remarkable account, and then it just simply appears on your Remarkable device, which is really cool... Watch in video
🤔 ⚖️ The weight can be an issue when using the flip book folio
...However, this whole package with the flip book folio, Remarkable 2 and the Marker Plus weighs in at 643 grams and that is the heftiness that I talked about... Watch quote in video
🤔 ❌ No auto wake up and sleep function on the flip book cover
...So currently, there's no auto wake up or sleep functionality with the flip book cover, which is quite odd... Watch quote in video
🤔 📅 Storage space logistics and claims do not match
...You can fit more closely to or precisely 7,541 pages. Now granted seven and a half thousand pages is not bad by any measure and mean, but that claim of a hundred thousand pages that you can store then becomes a big issue... Watch quote in video
🤔 🔄 Lack of Bluetooth connectivity
...I think Bluetooth would have been a good thing because you could have hooked up a wireless Bluetooth keyboard and then you could actually use it as a text editor. And I just don't understand why that was a missed opportunity... Watch quote in video
🤔 🔦 No front light on the screen
...It is something that I actually prefer. But I know that a lot of people will demand a front light for their needs, which is also perfectly fine... Watch quote in video
🤔 🔠 Missing caps lock functionality on the keyboard
...No, unfortunately, we still don't have an option for caps lock, which is it would be wonderful to actually hear an explanation and reasoning behind this... Watch quote in video
🤔 ⚙️ No new functionalities in the OS compared to Remarkable 1
...Unfortunately, there is absolutely not one new thing added on the Remarkable 2. In fact, it's the exact same version, basically, of the OS that is currently available on Remarkable 1... Watch quote in video
🤔 💾 Insufficient storage space
...No comment. No expansion card. What you have is what you get. That's those 6.41 gigabytes of space is what you get. I think it's way too little... Watch quote in video
🤔 🚫 OS crashes with large notebooks
...So that test completely unexpectedly exposed a serious flaw in the OS design...So that completely surprisingly exposed a very, very serious problem with the current OS design... Watch quote in video
🤔 🖋 Lack of 180-degree flip for left-handed mode
...It currently can't. It can just be here. Now, granted, okay, the pen can technically be here...It's an afterthought... Watch quote in video
🤔 🗑 Trash can usability issues
...At the bottom of the menu that you get are the settings, and in the settings, you have the device...but this is basically if you delete your files, notebooks, or anything, this is where they will be, and you can manually empty the trash can, or you can restore the documents...You can restore the documents to the root of the device only for whatever reason, and that's pretty much it...
