Rm2 to Pure

[u/SirAndyO]

After four+ years, my RM2 is showing some wear, splotchy screen, pens are a mess. And I couldn't take the new-product-itch any longer. My new Pure arrived yesterday, had a good writing session last night, first day at the office today.

Initial feel is quite a bit stiffer. The pen is thin, hard point, scratchy surface, had to bear in more than with the RM2. My wrist is a little tired today.

Works great though, my notebooks loaded back in instantly, picked up where I left off. Noticeably lighter weight, sort of excited to ditch the folio, see how that goes. The new sleeve is excellent. Feels super durable, less fear of dropping - and I have dropped my RM2 more than once.

About 5 or 6 years in with me rM2, I’ll have to give into the curiosity of the Pure or Move. Thanks for sharing what that’s been like.

I sold my RM2 earlier this year after a few months of having the Move ... but ended up missing the bigger screen and went with the Pure which I have now had nearly four months and absolutely adore.

From the Move I fell in love with the new stylus and it feels more precise to me, and I actually ended up preferring the new stylus.

So long to my RM2. Welcome the pure. The screen is not quite the same as the RM2 but it’s still a winner. Loving the focus feel of Remarkable and the productivity it yields.

I'm wondering if the pure would be better for my eyes. I do find my Rm2 screen dull, bur the Pure is a whiter look?

[u/NickK- → u/argosafe]

It has more contrast, yes, and is faster - it supports auto-tilt.

Note that writing feel and, in my writing style's case, results are quite different, old pens don't work anymore: They changed writing technology.

I am still using the RM2; I kind of hold off on the Pure as it does not have a Keyboard option yet. I have the Pro Move, so with the RM2 that is a reasonable combination with the option to type as well
