The screen size depends on how and where you plan to use it, so it is a subjective factor. For me 13" is a negative since I want a device neither too small nor too big and 10.3" achieves the right balance.

Besides, Sony's stylus requires charging. It is good if the battery lasts as long as the tablet battery lasts, otherwise it defeats the purpose of owning a device which is supposed to save you from going to the power outlet every day. The Remarkable stylus is way better as it, besides not requiring battery power, also offers tilt sensitivity which makes it very attractive to artists.

The CPU might be slow on paper, but at least from the review, Sony is not much faster than Remarkable. And Sony is Second gen and for that price it would be ridiculous if they used that old CPU.
