I’m contemplating buying myself a Remarkable tablet. I’m gonna use it for note taking in my studies and daily notes. No drawing. Since I’m a student I have to consider it carefully before buying it, it ain’t cheap. I was considering buying the first version second hand, but the lifespan of that would probably be poor and I would just need to buy a new one too soon, waist of money. I have been reading a lot and seen a lot of reviews about it, but I would like to ask anyways. Are you very pleased with yours? How expensive is it (I’m then referring to all the other costs after buying the tablet itself)? Would you say it is worth it for my use? I’m a programming student and I ofc love tech, but also having all my notes in one place and being able to open them on my computer would be so practical for me.
Software dev here and i use the remarkable every day. Like a lot of folks said, I handwrite notes and tasks so that i absorb/renember them better, which I dont get when typing notes. Its also very nice for drawing abstract concepts and then emailing them to the team easily. Occasionally, Ive shared my screen on Teams and screen cast my remarkable to my desktop so that i can draw while speaking to REALLY drive home complex architecture discussions, etc. Its a fantastic tool, imo, for software dev - especially for remote work teams without an office. So its usefulness wont end with your studies. Good luck!
