What owners say about the reMarkable Paper Pro (2GB + 64GB)

Based on 166 owners sharing their experience in online comments

44%positive19%mixed37%negative

Owners love the paper-like writing and focused note-taking, while the steep price and distracting screen refreshes hold it back.

What owners dislike

  • Owners find the price hard to justify, with some comparing it to full tablets and saying it is worth it only for heavy note-takers.25
  • Owners say the screen flickers and refreshes often, especially when turning pages, scrolling, or drawing with colour, and coloured areas can leave ghosting.18
  • Owners find the first three front-light levels too weak to help, and say the screen is too dark in evenings even at full brightness.16
  • Owners say colours look pale, black looks bluish rather than deep black, and the red pen colour appears orange.11
  • Owners say the pen feels too slippery on the glass surface, feeling hard and closer to an iPad than to real paper.10
  • Owners report screens breaking, freezing or failing to start after about a year, and some say notes vanished when the device was offline.8
  • Owners say support is slow, screen repairs are not offered, and replacements can take two months or arrive refurbished with faults.8
  • Owners say the interface is slow and laggy, with zooming and landscape scrolling glitches and leftover traces of earlier screens.8
  • Owners say it cannot open Kindle libraries, EPUB links and indexes are lost, and books often must be converted to PDF first.7
  • Owners report pen offset, so second strokes do not line up, accuracy slipping with static, and the pen disconnecting until the device is reset.6

Verdict

The reMarkable Paper Pro is a high-end digital notebook featuring a 11.8-inch Canvas Color display with a 2160 x 1620 resolution (229 PPI) and a custom 1.8 GHz quad-core processor. Equipped with 2GB of LPDDR4 RAM and 64GB of internal storage, it offers a premium, ultra-slim 5.1mm build designed for a distraction-free writing experience. Main pros include a significantly reduced writing latency of 12ms, a new adjustable reading light for low-light use, and a battery life that can last up to two weeks on a single charge. However, some users have noted cons such as muted or 'greyish' color saturation typical of E Ink, a relatively dim backlight compared to traditional tablets, and occasional sluggishness when navigating complex documents or menus.
