5.0 out of 5 stars I’m already in love with it.
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2024
I love riding and I usually have tons of notebooks. I’m getting sick and tired of wasting paper, losing my notebooks and in truth in someways hurting the environment. I got this because I can have as many as I want. I never have to worry about buying it again. I really do love it. The few things I don’t like I don’t know if you can download other notebooks onto this and start using it if they don’t is that sad but if they do, I just haven’t figured it out yet. Use this to organize my day As a journal, writing, poetry and writing a book. So I use this for Different things that require different different kinds of notebooks.

I have only had possession of my Kindle Scribe for a few days. I am, already in love with it. All the functionality of a Paperwhite, but with a 10 inch screen. Plus, the ability to write and sketch directly on the screen. Of which I can say, works wonderfully. It , almost, feels like writing on paper. It has great tracking with the stylus and very little delay from pen to screen. I took it to the office today to take down notes on, and it was great. So, I can read books, sketch, mark PDFs, take notes, and journal all on this device. I am very happy I made this purchase.

I wasn't sure how much I'd love this, given I don't read as often as I used to, but I use this for things I didn't even expect. I use this for grocery lists, to-do lists, monthly goals, and it has improved my productivity a ton. It has an amazing battery life, I've had this for several months, and I've only charged it like four times in that period? It charges quickly too. My only complaint are the pen nibs go flat and need replacing so so often. I wish they were just a bit stronger. However, this does come with several replacement nibs so I think it isn't too bad.

4.0 out of 5 stars Why is it not water resistant?
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2024
I got this primarily to read. I thought the pen was a nice feature, but didn't see myself using it much. I wanted a bigger screen than the paperwhite, so I decided to go with the Scribe instead. I've used it a couple days and enjoyed the reading experience a lot, but I didn't research well enough before buying. I didn't realize that the Scribe isn't water resistant like the Paperwhite. I read in the bathtub, in the kitchen while cooking, etc., and I don't want to be in constant fear that I'm going to drop or splash or spill on it. The writing features and larger screen aren't worth the extra anxiety to me. If they come out with a version of this later with more durability, I'll definitely buy again, but for now, I'm going to return for a Paperwhite.

1.0 out of 5 stars We’re just not there yet.
Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2023
I have been waiting SO long for a paperwhite device I could write in. When I saw this I knew I had to have it, though it’s probably worth about $50 tops.

Y’all. Idk where all these 5-star reviews are coming from. I assume people with perfect vision who are never going to use the “scribe” feature (I saw a few say they had no intention of doing so). But there are some HUGE issues still!

- the price. I mean obviously. Why is it so expensive? It makes no sense! There are tablets cheaper! I assume it’s all about the paperwhite. Which was the main deal for me - I just think it’s really cool. Whatever.
- This thing is NOT user-friendly. It’s gotta be primarily the Kindle cult followers who are using this thing with any regularity. The most user-friendly things are flipping the pages and erasing. The web browser is clunky and doggedly stuck on Amazon uk, which I clicked by accident. I figured out how to delete Amazon.uk from the list and it STILL defaults to there every single time. I tried the Facebook link but it doesn’t load. I’ve given up. Web browser unusable.
- the biggest problem of all: the font is TINY. My vision is fading but it’s not THAT bad. There is NO way to adjust the font past “regular” and “large” - and “large” is mayyyyybe 1pt larger than regular. So if you need large font, this is not the device for you.
- the “brightness”. In setup mode it was ridiculously dim. I mean so stupidly dim I almost gave up and repackaged it for immediate return because if I can barely see it in “large” with the brightness up… I had to take a pic of the screen with my phone and enlarge it a few times, but I got through it. But the brightness is either “blinding” or “too dark”. I couldn’t find a sweet spot. I thought I’d love the “warmth” - I romantically thought “oh, it’ll be like sepia!” But it’s not like sepia; it’s like some weird alternative-tangent yellowish color that hurts my eyes and reducing the dimness (dimth?) doesn’t help because everything just fades away.
- everything seems really fuzzy. I know it’s not just me because I’m sitting here typing this out on my much-smaller phone and it’s fine.
- they REALLY want you to spend money on this goodreads thing, whatever that is, and the kindle store. It found two of the few dozen books I’ve downloaded in the past decade or so - don’t judge me; I haven’t been able to see well enough to read a book, and I’m more of a writer anyway, which is why I wanted the SCRIBE. But I thought maybe we could use apps like the Gutenberg thing or that app that brags about having 500,000 free books or something. No apps. It appears to be Kindle or nothing. There are some books available with Prime, apparently, but I couldn’t tell you the names of them because there was no way to enlarge anything there. So obviously because I couldn’t even see the covers/titles nothing jumped out at me as something I might want to check out.
- ok, so I wanted a device that might help me read books again (this ain’t it, so I can’t imagine what a regular size kindle must be like!), but I really wanted it for my own books I write. I keep thinking if only I had a really cool device maybe I could get back into it. This device is cool, but that’s all it is. It just isn’t functional! There’s no way to put my own books on this thing. Supposedly we can use email, but this device isn’t very forthcoming in telling people how to do things they’d like to do.

Oh yeah, the “Notebooks”. Very no-frills - you can get free apps on your phone that are roughly a billion times better. You can start a “notebook” and write or doodle to your heart’s content… and that’s pretty much it. I haven’t tried but apparently you can’t save your writing to text (so yeah, useless for longhand book writing). It’s a fun little thing to scribble on and mess around for a few minutes, but I’m just not sure $300 is a reasonable price for that.

Ugh. Well, bottom line is I think I just talked myself out of keeping this thing. If I were rich I might keep it around as a scribble toy, but I’ve already ordered an LCD tablet on Temu for $4 so…

I’m so disappointed I think I might cry. Ugh.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best gift ever
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2024
I was gifted one from my boyfriend as an early anniversary gift. I love it. I hated how my old kindle didn’t allow for handwritten notes, because that’s the only way I like taking notes. And I hated having to carry my ipad with me when I’m reading, to take notes. This is amazing! It’s quick to respond to touch, and the handwritten notes are my favorite part! I’m glad for the larger screen because my eyesight isn’t the greatest. Love this Kindle!
