Remarkable has the edge on the artistic aspect since it's the only eInk device IIRC that supports pen tilt detection which allows for effects for mimicking using the side of your pencil for shading for example. They also have layer support in their notebook.
For art though a more powerful color tablet like the iPad might be better, more full featured drawing/painting programs, more power for bigger more complicated files, pen tilt detection and of course color! |
Fantastic unboxing. I look forward to his in-depth review. That was the sort of info on the writing/art tools that I had been looking for. I already own an iPad with Pencil and Procreate, so I’m not looking for a new drawing device per se, but I do plan on taking notes and making occasional doodles.
Like him, I was disappointed with the pen sensitivity, but that can be adjusted in an update since the technology is there already. I was mildly disappointed to learn there is no tilt detection, but for my needs, I won’t actually miss it.
However, overall I was pleasantly surprised since Kobo’s page was pretty but sparse on details. For marking up documents AND being a large eReader, it’s exactly what I was hoping it was.
