ReMarkable's e-ink tablet is ready to take over your sketchpad

            The Kindle can display books just fine, but it can't be used to jot down notes. E-ink refresh rates are generally terrible. The Norwegian startup ReMarkable has made its own tablet that aims to make sketching on e-ink feel smooth and lag-free. And, hey, it really works.


             Big e-ink tablets remain a pretty niche market. Sony's Digital Paper is ReMarkable's biggest competition (we haven't tried Sony's latest tablet yet for comparison). According to CEO Magnus Wanberg and Chief Design Officer Mats Holberg, their tablet is about finding a way to write without feeling overconnected. Or, capturing digital sketches without having all the other apps and gear.
                                                                                                                                 The ReMarkable tablet was announced last year, but is supposed to finally ship this August.


                The ReMarkable tablet is a bit chunkier than the recently-announced newest version of Sony's Digital Paper, but it also costs less. And ReMarkable promises to have the most lag-free sketching available (about 50 milliseconds).
For basic writing and drawing, it feels pretty natural.
