The review on Youtube above does not do a very good job comparing the Elipsa and the Scribe. I have both and have compared them for weeks. I find myself using the Elipsa and avoiding the Scribe, which may seem a bit strange given the fact that the Scribe has better resolution and a better screen. I find it significantly easier to read on the Elipsa, though I'm not sure exactly why. Some negatives about the Scribe: it is too dim in dark mode, it's a bit heavier, it's harder to hold (the back is metal) and its software is inferior. But even in normal (not dark) mode, I find the text on the screen of the Elipsa is easier to read. All in all, the Elipsa has a nicer feel to it. I am looking forward to upgrading, at which time I'll sell the Scribe and the older Elipsa. One important thing not mentioned much is that Elipsa can be dimmed or brightened by sliding your finger over the left side of the screen. On the Scribe, you have to go open a window and change the brightness with a slider, a procedure that gets tiresome.
