Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the graphic tablet. Some mention that it's easier to use than the iPad for notetaking and has replaced their iPad.

However, others say that the interface is usable but very unintuitive, there is no simple instruction on how to do factory reset, and getting pdfs on it are a bit cumbersome. The documentation is also lacking, and the experience is unintuitively and frustrating.

Customers are mixed about the performance of the graphic tablet. Some mention that it's useful for students and engineers, perfect for legal work and law school, and comes in handy while brainstorming.

I write for my 9 to 5 and 5 to 9. During the day, I'm a Senior Proposal Writer which requires me to carefully read RFPs (usually PDF docs) and make lots of annotations and highlights that help me write the proposals correctly. I typically print out the RFPs which can be lengthy and then create physical binders where I keep all of my notes--I use a lot of sticky notes and highlighter. With this device, I'm saying goodbye to my binders. I can keep folders of my documents (which I've already started creating), underline, highlight, make notations, and I can actually search on text, which I couldn't do with a binder. ReMarkable makes my job SO. Much. Easier.
For my 5 to 9, I write and edit fiction. I find writing longhand keeps me engaged in my story when I'm writing drafts, so I keep a ton of journals. The problem is transcribing the notes. Lots of typing. Problem solved with this tool. This device converts handwriting to text and is pretty darn accurate. This is no small feat given my print is a mix of print and cursive. It reads my cursive parts. I haven't tried writing completely in cursive.
Also, I need to review my manuscripts and make edits. Again, I used a combination of my laptop, iPad, and print outs my drafts to make notations--which was a pain. I had notes all over the place and the glare is tough on the eyes. I generally proofread on my laptop, but I find hardcopy helps me better identify story problems and edit things like structure, dialogue, etc. Problem solved. I can load my manuscript in PDF, change the setting to double space, make my all of my notations, underlines, highlights, and then make the edits without killing trees.
The tablet comes with a lot of templates that allow you to customize your use as much as you want. You can also create your own word doc templates, turn them into PDFs, and then use them as your customized template, copying them as often as you need to. I've seen this used as a daily planner and many other things. I've set up folders for all of my upcoming novels and proposals. So far I've used it to storyboard my next novel, and I have a folder for my daily checklist to remind me of all the random stuff I'd forget otherwise.
Instead of lugging around all these journals and binders, I can carry my one little tablet with everything in it.
What I like best. The size is perfect — about the same size as an iPad but much lighter. I have an iPad, too. This doesn't replace devices. It replaces my paper. The writing surface is impressive, sounds and feels like writing on paper. My documents automatically back up to the cloud when I'm on WiFi. The ReMarkable is light in weight, easy to carry. You'll need a case. I bought the KuRoKo Leather Case which gives me a place to keep my pen handy--there is no pen holder on the device. There's also a handle on the inside cover so you can hold it comfortably without the front cover getting in the way. I use my device A LOT: day and night. So I have to charge it about every 48 hours. But I can imagine if you only use it an hour or two a day the battery will last much longer. Also, it's much easier on my eyes than a computer screen. My vision has suffered a lot lately. My eyes get watery and dry because I spend so many hours on the computer. This device is a welcome relief.
What I would change: I would skip the ReMarkable sleeve and get something made for a tablet. I wish it had a heavier, more substantial pen. The pen works fine but it's very light -- I'm an old school writer who likes a little weight to my pen. It would be nice to have some soft backlighting, but I bought the LuminoLite book light which has five lighting levels so it works well if I'm in low light situations. Also they should make a longer charging cord.
Overall, I'm in love with the functionality. I'm in love with the device. And with me using this for so much of my work, the investment is WELL WORTH benefits of saving my back and eyes. If you have similar requirements, you will not be disappointed. Buy it. Like, right now.
I've read comments like "why not just use a cheap paper notebook?" But a paper notebook can't back itself up, can't be in multiple places at once (the reMarkable phone and desktop apps), can't convert itself to text and be shared by email. On paper you can't move text around the page or erase areas without eventually making a mess, as with paper. With reMarkable you can copy and paste on the page, expand or contract the size of the selection or even rotate it. On a single device you can create as many notebooks as needed for different subjects or projects and you wouldn't need to find a way to lug it all around with you or I suppose organize it in a large binder with tabs. It can be your multiple notebooks, your task lists, your weekly-monthly-yearly planner, and all of it organized by project, goal or subject, any way you choose. You can also import articles you haven't had time to read yet through the reMarkable app, throw in some cooking recipes to try, music sheets or chords for practice later, it's endless.
This isn't a tablet like a Surface Pro or Ipad with Evernote or OneNote. I know there's a place for software like Evernote or OneNote to use for reference materials and notes but this use can also get out of hand when it becomes filled with images, pastings and web clippings-- to the point it can almost be overwhelming and make focusing and thinking more difficult, expanding into disorganization rather than helping you distill information into well-defined ideas. You don't need a reMarkable to do that but it is nice to get away from the clutter, distractions and notifications on a typical tablet.
Some of the real pluses, especially compared to paper notebooks:
It backs itself up to cloud, you don't have to do anything, it's already done for you.
It can be in viewed in multiple places at once (on your phone, your desktop, laptop, Chromebook etc.).
It can convert your handwriting to text.
Notes can be instantly and easily shared to others by email
You can create a notebook for each subject or project (without the burden of carrying multiple notebooks or a large binder around)
You can organize your notebooks and other files and have this visual display of all your information, grouped into folders if wanted, or just sorted by note book name or file name, date last updated or by size.
Btw... the reMarkable android app works great on my Chromebook.
Some things I wouldn't mind seeing in future updates:
A split screen to have two files open simultaneously.
Full support for customizing templates (you can actually do this now to an extent)
Copy and pasting, to new pages or notebooks
Some desktop app feature to print direct to PDF and send immediately to the tablet.
These are just some things that appeal to me. I'm not artistic enough to go into the drawing and sketching capabilities of the reMarkable. It works fine for me for doodles and diagrams. Maybe someday I'll advance to using the multiple layers capability but I'm not there yet. And there are other capabilities that I have not used yet like importing e-books, the LiveView connection to your desktop and probably some things I'm not aware of.
