Editorial take
Why we picked it
We've spent decades trying to put the entire internet in our pockets, and now we're paying a premium for a device that proudly does... almost nothing.
The reMarkable 2 is for the person who wants to look like a sophisticated architect while actually just doodling incoherent shapes during a Zoom call.
It's thinner than a posh biscuit and has a screen that feels so much like paper it's almost spooky.
It's the ultimate "fountain pen" of the digital age-entirely unnecessary, slightly pretentious, and absolutely lovely to use.
Detailed verdict
The full review
The Irresistible
- The writing feel is genuinely unparalleled; it has that scratchy, tactile feedback that makes your handwriting look slightly less like a doctor's ransom note.
- It is unbelievably thin, making it the only piece of tech I own that actually makes my leather satchel look cooler.
The Clever Part
- The lack of notifications is a feature, not a bug, protecting your fragile attention span from the bottomless pit of Instagram.
- Converting handwritten notes to text works surprisingly well, even if you write in a frantic scrawl like I do.
The Fine Print
- You have to replace the pen nibs, which feels like a bit of a cheek in 2025/6; it's like buying a car and finding out the steering wheel wears down.
- The lack of a backlight means you're back to the 19th century-if the sun goes down, you're finished.
The Reality Check
- Without the expensive "Type Folio" or a subscription, it's basically just a very posh, very expensive Etch A Sketch that can't even do a proper Etch A Sketch shake.
