Kindle Scribe Colorsoft
This entry-level Kindle Scribe Colorsoft comes with a Kindle Premium Pen stylus, 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. The 11" Kaleido 3 color e-paper display is slightly smaller than what you get on the ReMarkable and doesn't feel half as good to write on, but gets noticeably brighter. You also have easy on-device access to the Kindle Store.
Pros
- Big 11-inch screen makes reading easy
- Stylus is versatile and feels good to write with
- Colors look good and unlock a new realm of reading and writing
Cons
- No waterproofing
- Annotating text still awkward
- Costs more than an iPad Air, does less
ReMarkable
Paper Pro
This is the entry-level ReMarkable Paper Pro tablet that comes with a ReMarkable Marker (no eraser), 2GB of RAM and 64GB of storage space. The 11.8" Color Canvas e-paper display is slightly larger than what you get on the Kindle and feels a lot more like paper to write on than the Kindle, but you can't get content half as easily as you can on the Kindle Store.
Pros
- Color helps documents pop
- Colors and art tools are fun to use
- Backlight is nice to have
- Slim, elegant design
Cons
- Display often feels slow
- Lag on some art tools means there's a learning curve
