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

    Hi,

    So I switched from an iPad + pen to a reMarkable 1 some years ago and have never thought of going back. I use my remarkable on a daily basis for taking meeting notes, markup of design papers and other documents.

    On my Mac’s (MBP and MAc Pro desktop) I am able to send documents to my reMarkable via the RMAPI interface or the reMarkable app without any issues and if I have a document or web page that I want on my reMarkable I just print the item. The rmapi will allow you to create a printer that will permit you to print to your reMarkable.
