Amazon Kindle Scribe (64GB) - Your notes, documents and books, all in one place. With built-in AI notebook summarization. Includes Premium Pen - Metallic JadeRecycled Content Certification for Electrical and Electronic Equipment

I hesitated buying this for a long time, and I am glad I waited for the second generation. There are multiple upgrades to the newer version. Strictly as a writing tablet, there may be better choices, but for a long-time Kindle user (I have owned the Paperwhite, Voyage, and Oasis), the Scribe was the best upgrade I could have asked for. I should note that the 64 GB version is quite expensive. I got it because it looks beautiful (honestly) and I got an excellent price on Prime Day, and big discounts for trading in two old devices. Still, I can't imagine any situation where I would need anything close to this much storage - I mean most of my stuff is in the cloud and how many thousands of books do you need on the device itself? As for the device, it is very solid-looking, and just feels nice. The screen resolution in the best of any Kindle I have seen, and I love reading on it. It has all the features we have come to expect (fonts, lighting, etc.) plus some new ones. Book annotating is a bit limited, but again for a regular user, it is just fine. I enjoy highlighting passages and attaching notes to them for later reference. You can also view all of your annotations on Amazon's website. So if you are working on a laptop or somewhere without your Kindle, your are still good. If you are someone who likes to review books, like on Goodreads for example, this should work out well. For journaling and other writing purposes, the notebooks are good also. The writing is very smooth and realistic, with a lot of options in terms of pens, pencils, erasers and such. I love the AI feature that refines my handwriting, which is pretty sloppy normally. A bit slow at times, but as long as your writing is reasonably legible, you can expect an excellent result from the refining process. So my notebooks are neatly written and organized. The only thing I don't like is that the AI tools are still a little clunky when it comes to refining multi-page handwritten notes. Right now, there does not seem to be a built-in way to automatically combine content from two or more handwritten pages into one unified, refined note that fits in a single space. So I have to fiddle around a fair amount to make my journal entries look the way I like, and there was a bit of a learning curve in doing so. So what - I still love the Scribe and the easy decision buying it turned out to be.

They've really improved the Etch A Sketch. I was looking for a new Etch A Sketch and ran across this thing, and I'm glad I spent a little extra and bought this. This one it comes with a stylist and you don't use 2 knobs. And to erase you can flip over the stylist and the back acts as an eraser. You don't flip the screen over and shake it.Seriously they've captured the visual and tactile aspects of writing with a pen well. I actually have a reason to know cursive again. I actually forgot cursive when I first started using it and had to refresh myself for 30 minutes or so. I feel less retarded now after using for a while. I don't know if I am less retarded but I feel less retarded writing with a stylus. There is no spell check when you write on the tablet. So as long as I don't look in a dictionary, I feel less retarded. You feel more human writing using it rather than punching letters on a keyboard. Really good product for active reading, studying, and taking notes in comparison to only being able to read things on a computer.

OH. MY. GOD. 🤩🥳I have found the holy grail of e-reading. I upgraded by trading in my 10th gen paperwhite. When I received this bad boy (named $crim the Scribe lol), setup was a breeze bc I linked my amazon account to the purchase. I've had it for a week now and it's life changing in the best way 😍 **yes I'm aware you can see my folders & titles of my notebooks, idc lol**I have wanted to journal my whole life but never could stick with the hobby. I have been a journaling FIEND with this piece of technology. I've already made 13 notebooks, with all different kinds of layouts. The planner layout, checklist layout, & a regular notebook paper layout. I have 3 different journals and checklists out the WAZOO. I love writing on it, and I think my handwriting is so much prettier on it vs on actual paper 💀 I don't have any issues with the premium pen, but this is the first time I've used a pen like this lol. The eraser on the end is a little loose, but not to the point that it bothers me.The Kindle itself is super high quality **remember this review is coming from a previous 2018 paperwhite owner lol** It's not as durable as my paperwhite was that's for sure. I love that the button to wake it up is on the side because I put my thumb under the bottom sometimes to hold it while I'm reading. The screen is HUGE and my blind self loves that 🤣 I didn't realize the pen is magnetic and sticks to the side, I was like a cavewoman discovering fire when I found that feature lmaooo.Response time is lightyears faster than my paperwhite, and having 64GB of memory is a dream compared to the 8GB I had. The battery life is impressive, I have mine set to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity. I don't let my devices get too low on charge so I don't know how many days it lasts with a LOT of writing in notebooks & reading. You're able to send documents to your kindle as well, and then write on them! It's super easy too. One of my notes from my iPhone took a while to transfer, but it still did it so no complaints here! You can customize a little more with this than on the paperwhite.The jade color is BEAUTIFUL, plus my constellation case is so CUTE & perfect for an astrology girlie like me 😍 It works like a dream with smooth & swift transitioning. It's condensed my planner, journal, & e-reader to ONE physical item. I won't have to spend money on yearly journals or continuously buy new journals saying "I'll start journaling now, this is the one." Of course manufacturing the item creates waste, but I like to think I'm helping the environment a little bit by not buying those physical items anymore 🌏✨I know the price is pricey (at least to me it is lmfao), but if you love reading, love to journal or want to get into the habit of journaling, BUY A KINDLE SCRIBE!!!!!! This was a purchase I know was worth it as soon as I got to play around with it ✨
