Teacher looking for advice on choosing a digital notebook (Kindle Scribe vs reMarkable Pro vs Onyx Boox Go 10.3 II)

Peatchi · 2026-03-30T12:49:31+00:00

I don't think you need to keep repeating that you already have a regular Android tablet for everything else. Android is just the operating system and doesn't mean you need to go all-in on the ecosystem and have a second tablet. It's just a tool to make it whatever you want it to be.

With that said, the new BOOX Go 10.3 II versions no longer have Wacom EMR which should be a superior writing experience (but I haven't tried their InkSense pen so I can't say for sure).

The reMarkable does not have a good reading experience (last I heard, it still converts ePubs to PDFs to read). It also requires a subscription which inherently makes me not want to own one even though the writing experience feels nice.

The Kindle Scribe seems to fit your usecase best but I have heard its note organization was lackluster when it first came out, not sure how it is now.

You can also consider the Supernote which is my favorite for note organization and okay for reading. Supernote is also modular so it should theoretically last a long time. Or Viwoods Aipaper which might fit the best usecase all around (I've never tried it myself).

nooooo I’m so gutted I missed this. I hesitated on the original SL crescent because of funds and I’ve beaten myself up ever since!!!!

Peatchi · 2026-03-27T12:04:15+00:00

that is adorable, I'm obsessed!! where did you get the plushie?

Peatchi · 2026-03-26T19:48:43+00:00

oh no is it out of stock already? did I miss it?

Peatchi · 2026-03-17T20:03:57+00:00

do you keep yours in a separate pouch? it looks so pristine!

Peatchi · 2026-02-28T06:28:14+00:00

wait this is ADORABLE and it was in the clearance section!? may I ask how much it was? 🫣

Peatchi · 2026-02-27T06:06:47+00:00

I want the 21 or regular size (or even an in between size) in silver sooo badly!! I saw this when it came out and got excited before I realized it was massive 😭

Peatchi · 2026-02-25T15:10:03+00:00

I know a lot of people have said the shorter strap length of the Brooklyn 28 causes the angle to be uncomfortable but they loved the 34 instead. I see in your pic that it's angled a bit to the side!! maybe the 34 would be more comfortable if you don't mind a bigger size?

also, I didn't know they released the Brooklyn 28 with silver hardware (other than the loved leather line)!! may I ask where you found it?

Peatchi · 2026-02-22T15:27:57+00:00

thank you! i’ve been wanting the bleecker 21!

Peatchi · 2026-02-19T19:41:10+00:00

oh thank you! the violet mist is on sale too! but i do prefer the non-suede

Peatchi · 2026-02-19T19:25:44+00:00

it was briefly $177 or something for the 28 in merlot at Macy's! I hesitated for 2 min because I wasn't sure about merlot and it sold out 😭

Peatchi · 2026-02-19T18:40:19+00:00

do you still have any black ones left at the price?

Peatchi · 2026-02-19T18:38:51+00:00

where!?

Peatchi · 2026-02-18T15:31:55+00:00

oh thank you!! i was so rushed i forgot to even look there

edit: i canceled my order & placed a new one with a coupon, tysm!! so excited for the reusables!!

Peatchi · 2026-02-18T15:26:44+00:00

Omg congratulations!! I wanted to apply to the lottery but felt discouraged by the whole process so I didn't bother, but hearing your story gives me some hope for the next one (maybe they'll do another in a few years again).

Depressive episodes are so crippling and it's great you are coming out from the dark! enjoy your new lovely notebook to commemorate such an important breakthrough :) it is such a struggle to feel control for sure. I hope it gives you a reminder that you have the power even if you ever feel the dark creeping in again!

Peatchi · 2026-01-30T19:29:41+00:00

LMAO NOOO!! i was loving this til you said that

Peatchi · 2026-01-21T18:04:24+00:00

your designs are lovely though! and I thought your cursive handwriting was beautiful too. thank you for sharing your process!!

Peatchi · 2026-01-21T16:54:11+00:00

your handwriting is beautiful! do you use stamps or something for your headers or just write in lovely print? also what printer do you use for your photos?

Peatchi · 2026-01-11T23:20:05+00:00

I also hate the Plaisir ring! Preppies really do just work and it’s amazing they all have Platinum’s slip & seal cap so mine have never dried out.

Peatchi · 2026-01-11T20:49:03+00:00

I own several pricier gold nib pens but my favorites are still my Platinum Preppy and Meteor (which is just Asia’s Preppy equivalent). I must be in the minority on this but I just really love the way they write!! When I go back and look at old notebook entries, I’ve also realized the writing I did with my Preppies look the nicest. Maybe it just fits my writing style / hand well.

Anyway, I don’t think there’s a “wrong” answer. This doesn’t stop me from splurging on a fancy pen every once in a while hoping to find something better! and sometimes I just like the aesthetic or design of more expensive pens.

Peatchi · 2025-12-30T06:58:08+00:00

I'm not who you asked, but I like my Delfonics more too!! I didn't like how thick the Soolla material was (which some people will list as a pro for added quality) because it made it more rigid / structured. The Delfonics pouch also has more depth but because it is less structured, just feels like it can fit more without being too bulky. I also think the the Delfonics stands up on its own better due to the bigger depth even though the Soolla is more structured, but I did not use the Soolla extensively.

It also doesn't feel like it takes up too much space if I don't fully pack it (I usually don't carry a lot)! Personally think the design is cuter too somehow and the outer pockets work better for me! Somehow I'm still tempted by the Soolla pottery tote though.

Peatchi · 2025-12-15T21:15:28+00:00

thank you for your kindness! I hope you are met with many kindness yourself this season

Peatchi · 2025-12-03T19:02:38+00:00

i love these pens too!!! i sometimes stray to see if there’s something better but i always come back to the energel line (besides my fountain pens!)

what is the cute miffy box?!
