An electronic device had achieved that for the very first time! To write on the reMarkable is like writing on paper. For the first time, E-ink was used not only to read e-books (in the familiar formats, ePub and PDF), but also as a writing surface. The reMarkable device, made by a Norwegian startup, was launched a few years ago and brought with it a writing experience on E-ink that is proprietary and fantastic. And, as if this were not enough, the problems with LED displays are still there. But then they make the watching of videos and images on the iPad, where it excels, miserable. Some people use specific plastic display covers to avoid the glass. Unless you like to write on the glass of your windows, for example. If this were not enough, to write on the glass that covers the iPad display is not such a good idea. To start with, the iPad has a LED display and it suffers from the issues outlined above. Why not the iPad for writing notes and reading books? Recent research has shown that any kind of light coming from LED, not only if in majority blue, have this effect. It has also been said that the “blue light” in LED lighting can damage the eye’s retina and disturb natural sleep rhythms. It’s also hard to see any image on a LED display under sunlight. E-ink feels like paper.Įye fatigue is common when reading on LED displays. I then find a clear winner.Į-ink screens have a great advantage over the common LED/OLED displays: they are easy on your eyes and can be read under sunlight. I also show what the two best devices of the current generation, reMarkable 2 and Onyx Note Air, can do. In this post I explain the advantages of e-ink over LED/OLED displays. Many of these devices also allow the conversion of handwritten notes to text, automating the writing process and making it possible to write short and long documents with a simple digital pen and with a paper feel. While the iPad is still the only device that many think when considering digital note taking and the Kindle is the one that often comes to mind for ebook reading, a new generation of e-ink-based, high-end devices for digital note taking and ebook reading has shown that the technology has finally become mature. If you are still taking notes, writing or journaling on paper and notebooks, you are probably not aware of the small revolution that is happening in this area.
