Amazon hasn’t published the exact resolution, but it works out at a decent 300ppi. The Kindle Scribe’s screen measures in at 10.2in. Headlining both shows are those E Ink displays. The Kindle Scribe is weightier at 433g, undercut by the 404g Remarkable 2. On the scales, there’s a little more in it. Each slate is slender as well: 5.8mm for the Kindle and 4.7mm for the Remarkable 2, which make each e-reader slimmer than any contemporary smartphone. The Kindle Scribe is the taller of the two by 9mm, while the Remarkable 2 is wider by 17mm. Physically, both devices are approximately the size of an A4 sheet of paper.
Which looks better will be down to the eye of the beholder. In contrast, the Remarkable 2 has a white surround with a silver-accented grip strip, and a thicker bottom bezel. The all-black Kindle Scribe features tidy, uniform bezels on three edges. But there are also visual differences which set the two slates apart. Notable bezels frame the displays, with a larger strip on the left to allow for easier holding. Both are styled like tablets and fronted by greyscale E Ink screens.
The Amazon Kindle Scribe and Remarkable 2 follow a very similar design formula.

The arc of technology often goes up but also bends back in time to long-forgotten failures to make something fresh and new. ReMarkable was always smart enough to leverage the processing power behind the paper-like screen for more utility. What's odd is that my excitement over the Kindle Scribe is almost entirely based on my ReMarkable 1 experiences. It needs to remind consumers it was here first (as if that matters) to survive. It extends the Kindle's utility into a space once owned by ReMarkable.Īmazon now has the wherewithal to let this pricier and mainly niche e-reader percolate and grow in market share, while the scrappy startup ReMarkable will need some splashy innovation. The 10.2-inch Kindle Scribe is more affordable than the original DX, though not as cheap as the $279 ReMarkable 2. That ReMarkable got there first is a credit to them, but also now a concern.Īmazon's had 15 years to perfect its e-reader business, with a range of products that start as low as $99 (often on sale for $69) and cost as must as the $249 Kindle Oasis. The similarities between the Kindle Scribe and ReMarkable 2 are not, well, remarkable, as they are a reflection of how far E Ink display, processing, materials, and stylus technology have progressed in 13 years since Amazon unveiled the Kindle DX. The follow-up ReMarkable 2 tablet is even lighter and thinner (4.7mm). That stylus, by the way, needed no batteries, drawing energy from the screen via inductive charge. ReMarkable worked closely with E Ink to create a version of electronic paper that offered 100 millisecond response time, making it feel as if the E Ink that appeared on the page was flowing out of the ReMarkable stylus.
It boasted 226ppi with a look and feel that was as close to a piece of paper as you could get without being made from pulp. In 2017, I tested the first ReMarkable tablet, a 10.1-inch, 350-gram E Ink and stylus-supporting tablet.
