Review: Big screen - After using the kindle oasis to read and hold like a book the kindle scribe has a larger 10.2" screen. The reading experience is excellent once you are holding the kindle comfortably. The stylus and writing experience is excellent with a nice pencil acoustic sound when moving the stylus on the screen. The software feels like an upgrade is coming to enhance the writing experience. The page turning is fast and all the usual features work well like spell check and dictionary. If you read mainly on the kindle then the price will not shock you. USB C charging is a bonus and the set up with the desertcart app is so easy and fast. My only concern is how the kindle attached to the cover also made by desertcart. The magnet's are not strong enough to secure the kindle and so I use double sided tape to adhere the kindle case to the rear of the product. Reducing the risk of breaking the screen. Overall, there a benefits to owning the stylus and I can see the software getting better over time. The screen quality is sharp and clear. Especially in dark mode. I like the kindle lack of intrusion when reading a book. The benefits of the kindle experience outweigh the weight of carrying several books around in your travel bag. Review: A game-changer for "notebook" people - I work in technology sales, and for the past few years many of my colleagues have made the transition from notebooks to Remarkable 2s. I've spent a lot of time with the Remarkable, and while it is no doubt an excellent device, the pricing model is extremely prohibitive - pen not included as standard, subscriptions required for cloud storage etc. Not to mention that the Remarkable is a good deal more expensive that the Scribe at the time of writing. I took advantage of black Friday to grab a Scribe with the basic pen and the desertcart folio case. I've spent a few months with the Kindle Scribe, using it every day as my primary tool for note taking. Personally, I've found it to be an absolute game changer. I have separate folders for work and personal notebooks, and I use the file structure to have notebooks for each meeting with every customer. Long gone are my days spent rummaging through several notebooks to find the specific note from a specific meeting. The writing experience is genuinely identical to a paper notebook, it has to be experienced to be believed. The ability to export handwritten notes to a text file is extremely useful, as is the ability to export documents directly from Microsoft Word to the Scribe. Transferring pdf files over (like user manuals for devices or contracts, for example) is very simple and has added to addition faff to my day-to-day workflow. Battery life is also superb - I use the device daily for work and personal use, and have had to charge it ONCE in the nearly 2 months I've had it. Personally, I wouldn't spend the extra money on the premium pen, I find the basic more than adequate and actually use the undo function more than the eraser. I would, however, highly recommend purchasing desertcart's own Folio case. It is excellent, and is well worth the cost. I honestly think any other case would significant detract from the ease of using the device. All in all, if you're stuck toiling between the Remarkable and Scribe as I was, I'd heartily recommend the Kindle Scribe. From my experience with both, unless there a serious, very specific feature that you need from the Remarkable, the Scribe is the way to go. Even then, given the rate of software updates, I suspect the Scribe may surpass the Remarkable in functionality soon anyway. ## Features - The only Kindle that includes a digital notebook and pen – Read and write down thoughts in books or a separate notebook, distraction-free. - Explore Kindle notebooks – A digital notebook you can write on.

There are other options for e-ink writing tablets that can share the screen with other devices. You're not really going to find an e-ink device that can handle a video or audio call. E-ink displays can't work fast enough, and I don't know of any with a camera, and this one doesn't even have a speaker or microphone. You would probably be better to buy a standard Android/Apple tablet with a stylus that can share its screen if you require such screen sharing and video/audio calls on the same device, plus you could get handwriting recognition and speech to text. Although, a standard tablet will not have the same 'distraction-free' performance. **Q: Why doesn’t it have β€˜read aloud’? Isn’t it about time Kindle had this now common-place feature for people with reading disabilities? .** A: I says in the blurb it does; the early kindles did but then they stopped it to promote audible books. What I read said this will have text to speak: "VoiceView screen reader, available over Bluetooth audio, provides spoken feedback allowing you to navigate your device and read books with text-to-speech (available in English only)." ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big screen *by K***S on 6 December 2022* After using the kindle oasis to read and hold like a book the kindle scribe has a larger 10.2" screen.

Got this primarily for taking notes in work as I tend to scribble a lot during meetings. Have to say the feel of writing in this is like writing on expensive paper, and it picks up everything I write perfectly. Very impressed so far. Additionally; the kindle function which i use it a lot for is brilliant. Page is huge so feels like a real page, much more than the smaller version I was currently using. Battery life is brilliant and very handy for carrying around to meetings and general Cons. Price obviously is very high. Got amazon voucher for bday so was not that bad but if you paying straight up it's heavy amount to spend on essentially a kindle and notepad. The transcribe to text function is good for the most part but you still have e to review and change when sent as it will miss things especially when writing fast notes. Sending the notes as well, not as straightforward as they state, took me some goes to figure out best way and I'm not adverse to technology. TLDR: very nice, handy notebook. Feels like paper. Does what it says on the tin with great kindle function. Very expensive and not as straightforward to send notes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/521060678-kindle-scribe-16-gb-the-first-kindle-and-digital-notebook](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/521060678-kindle-scribe-16-gb-the-first-kindle-and-digital-notebook) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
