Hi,

I need a tablet for (1) making handwritten notes to replace too many moleskines and to create a digital record of them (2) to read academic papers and annotate them.

I need to decide between Remarkable2 and iPAD Air + apple pencil. Any thoughts appreciated.

I have the impression that remarkable2 will be the best writing experience, however - an Ipad will connect direcly with Zotero. I am happy to download papers from zotero and upload them back to zotero, but realise that i will not be able to output all highlights in zotero from papers annotated in remarkable.

I have a macbook so am focused on the tasks highlighted above.

many thanks

    I had to choose between supernote and rM. Chose rM cause supernote, the device and the interface, looks too unpleasent to me and I couldn’t imagine looking at it every day.

      I felt the same way, until I discovered It was not easy to carry the remarkable everywhere for (partly irrational) fear of breaking it. The supernote is all plastic, it was definitely a plus.

      In the hands the supernote definitely has a charm, it doesn’t feel like a random tablet either.
