Remarkable Tablet: A Unique Paper-Like Experience for Creatives

reMarkable tablets are, of course, niche devices at a premium price: The reMarkable 2 starts at some $299, which is higher than most general-purpose tablets. Meant for that particular market-digital note takers, artists, and professionals who require a dedicated e-ink device for writing and drawing.
While this can be justified for users in this niche, it's not a tablet meant to casually browse or consume multimedia on, and that ultimately limits its appeal in terms of affordability to the general consumer.

One huge strength regarding the reMarkable devices is their battery life. The reMarkable 2 has an e-ink display that gives up to two weeks on a single charge with moderate use, thus giving it a clear lead among users who have to use a tablet for prolonged writing or reading sessions without having to recharge frequently.

The reMarkable 2 has a 10.3-inch monochrome e-ink display fitted for writing, drawing, and reading. It has a paper-like texture with low reflectivity that makes it more friendly to take notes or read in a brightly lit environment. However, the lack of color and lower refresh rate than normal LCD or OLED make it less good for media consumption.
Great in its niche, the display certainly doesn't hold a candle to mainstream tablet screens when it comes to general use.

As an e-ink tablet, the reMarkable 2 is not built for speed or performance-heavy tasks, but its sole focus has been to provide a smooth, paper-like writing and reading experience rather than multitasking or running apps.
This, the reMarkable 2 does quite nicely: it provides low-latency writing, a simple interface devoid of distractions, while traditional tablets make up for lost time with enormous processing power for advanced tasks.

As a pure e-ink tablet, for instance, the reMarkable 2 isn't built for speed or performance-heavy tasks but is all about providing a fluent, paper-like writing and reading experience rather than multitasking or running apps.
The reMarkable 2 does an exemplary job in that direction: low-latency writing and a distraction-free interface, although the processing power hardly competes with classic tablets for demanding tasks.
