I’ve been eyeing getting an e-ink notebook for ages, finally decided to take the plunge. I really appreciated how transparent and anti-planned obsolescence Supernote is, and I’m excited to get my hands on the A6 X2.

    Ah yeah I don’t do anything with pdfs on mine so I haven’t had to experience any of those issues. I can definitely see how that would be annoying though.

    Overall though I’m like you – definitely loving the entire experience!

    On a side note, I decided not to get the A5X2 and instead got a Boox Go 10.3. I realized the Supernote shines for me as a notebook/sketchbook replacement. And all of paper ones were A6 sized.

    The larger A5 size I think I want more for general tablet esque things like reading news, RSS feeds, etc. This led me to try the Boox. I have a Palma that I use for reading so I have a decent idea of how Boox does stuff.

    We’ll see how it goes. If I hate it I’ll just return it and get the A5X2 and sideload apps I want to use.

      Yeah, I generally like the smaller size and the fact that it’s pretty distraction-free (though I could add more apps, I’m refraining from doing so). I also really appreciate Supernote’s commitment to repairability and their transparency in their development, so those were big things that swayed my original choice.
