  • These are my thoughts:

    Pros

    • The handwriting is a brilliant experience, it feels like writing on paper.
    • Organisation is fantastic compared to binders and handwritten notes.
    • The battery life is exceptional
    • It’s fast and snappy with little to no lag
    • It definitely distraction free, you can do focused work without the risk of on device distractions.
    • The software gets regularly updated with new features (recently they’ve added straight lines).
    • The typefolio is tactile and feels nice to type with.
    • There’s plenty of pen styles, at least for me.

    Cons

    • It’s expensive for what it is. As cool as it is and what it does, the price point is far too high.
    • The markers wear down fairly quickly so you have to purchase replacement tips every few months.
    • Typed text doesn’t work well with other notes. You can’t choose where on the page to type, you have to type from the designated start point.
    • The software feels feature light, and fairly bare-bones. There’s no options for creating tables for example.
    • Organisation is not as fluid as a PC.
    • You cannot name pages in a notebook or create a functional contents page (at least as far as I can tell). I’m coming from OneNote rather that paper so I’m missing some of that functionality I’m use to.
