Both my Sage and Elipsa are as fast or faster than a reMarkable (both with 4.32.x firmware). The reMarkable up to date when I tested.
Also faster still on basic Notebooks. The Advanced Notebook has text, shape and maths recognition using Nebo (best package for it on iPad or Android tablets with digitiser stylus). Also some of the competition has ZERO built-in handwriting conversion/recognition. The reMarkable is merely a PDF viewer, file browser and sketch pad. No MTP or mass storage mode and no Library features (Author, Title, Collections, Series and search those).
Some other 10.3" may be quite good. But Elipsa and Sage suffered from some poor FW versions.
Uses same stylus as MS Surface (BT not needed). The Adrawpen 3rd party model for Surface is indistinguishable in function / use to Kobo stylus. I have both stylus. Also I have reMarkable, Elipsa, Sage and a Lenovo Windows tablet/laptop with touch and Wacom pen. The reMarkable uses a Wacom EMR.
