drawables","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":927.36,"end_s":930.199,"text":"too so check that one out","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0}],"full_text":"have you ever wanted a less convenient e-reader that you can write on while introducing yakindo squibe it is the first Kindle you can write on it comes with a stylus comes with a stylus not like the remarkable where you have to buy it separately which was 50 US dollars but now is like 80 or something fact check that 70 or 80. so the one that we got has 16 gigabytes of storage that is the minimum that compared to eight gigabytes on the remarkable 2. to be fairly remarkable too it's pretty old at this point and then we bought the premium pen which is 30 more the difference of the premium pen is that it has a shortcut on it so you can switch between pen highlighter and eraser and I think that's actually a has an eraser on the back excellent why can't I just pull this out it's so it just looks easy but it's not Hollow it's like a little file folder inside there with these little sections I'm trying to pull on them can't do it I think this was meant to be like this but someone got there first oh was there a squirrel in here what is this was my wife here seriously like trying to pour a bowl of cereal with a box that she opened it's just like goes everywhere it's coming out the side just unbelievable no amount of conversations about it will change your behavior either you just I just think I have to live with this is the tablet itself we're gonna set that aside but I have comments looks like a little quick setup guide for Australian customers this is going to be a selection of replacement tips for the stylus let's see yeah it opens that way oh what's this ring thing just can't not make it lower the Rings reference the remarkables um replacement tips had a cool thing where there was a little slider in here to help you remove the tip on the existing tip installed on your stylus I don't know how to get this out just pull is there such a thing on here is that what this is for oh I put it in pinch ha metal I guess I can't just stab it on like I could with a remarkable setup you just put it in like this there we go pen tricks yeah I can do them what else is there anything else in there no we got a little charger here uh another charger it's USB a to c and there's a c charging port right speaking of uh there's a button over here is this that's like the uh yeah that's the lock sort of button kind of weird to have the charger is it weird to have the charger over there it's kind of sticking out the bottom if you go in landscape mode but I feel like the default would be portrait so maybe it would be over there but I can see why they would want everything on the same side but that's the engineer's problem that shouldn't be my problem yeah this is clearly the default look at there's the logo I don't know it doesn't really matter because you charge these so sell them they advertise the battery is lasting weeks it depends if you're just reading or writing depends if you have Wi-Fi on or off but I mean I have had times where I'm reading with this thing plugged in because like you just don't use it for a month and you want to go read on your lunch break or something I think it's more forgivable than on a phone or even a a tablet like an iPad or an Android tablet because you you just plug in so sell them with these also has these little feet which is kind of weird they're not really in the way of your fingers when you're holding it in any kind of reasonable way even if I put it into my palm I just can't feel it makes it non-slip on the table and there's no rocking and it's not getting scuff up the back so I guess they're appreciated I wonder I feel like some someone fought for those to be on here other people were like you're crazy but we'll let you have this one it's very thin I would say it's it's like less than a quarter inch thick it's definitely it has a thicker kind of spine on this one side seems like that's a kind of cool place to hold it but it actually might make it harder to change to turn pages I'll try that in a little bit definitely gonna be bigger than your typical Cheapo tablet so you know if you've got bad eyesight you can really get in the zone here let's turn it on check it out right after this message from our sponsors thanks to Vesti for sponsoring today's video Christmas season is upon us which means it's time to stay warm and stay dry Bessie says that their shoes are 100 waterproof keeping your feet dry in the wettest of weather

notebooks that's the difference with these right so by tapping the plus icon where's that up here you can also add folders to keep your notebooks organized and your notes your notes can be multiple pages okay so templates you got blank you got regular lined there's different graphing people oh that's like a spreadsheet one interesting I'm gonna go with uh this big fat learn how to write take notes on your Kindle to turn the page swipe anywhere or use the pointer tool to tap the sides of screen okay so that just like uh other e-readers the screen is divided into regions and so tapping like this third will like Turn the page that way tapping this one turn it that way writing tools there's three writing tools there's just pen highlighter and eraser but there are different sizes or girths if you will of the pens undo and redo very standard stuff can I just swipe new page see my little my little thing went away we're back and if I hit my pen do I get different there we go five gradations let's go fine because you are so fine I don't know why I wrote that speed wise it feels pretty good I remember when I used the remarkable when you draw a line like that and lift off you can see your stroke complete once you've already lifted off the page the latency was improved for remarkable too there is still some bit of a lag but I think that this screen is probably a bit clearer it's the same Clarity that you see on the other entries in the lineup it's about 300 PPI let's see what I can do with shading though because on the remarkable the tip understands it when it's tilted and will kind of draw a little differently no that is like the exact same stroke it doesn't matter I oh do I have an eraser on here heck yeah it shows you is that like a preview of a racing you can see what's going to be erased and then it like actually erases after see how the lines of the page are more visible after I lift off it's not a feature of bugs kind of bizarre I want to check out the how light you can draw because that was one of the things on remarkable you couldn't do a very very light stroke without it cutting out being like a dotted line yeah you kind of get there's a limit you can see that's like becoming a broken line or it's just not even doing anything right now I'm just gliding on the glass I don't seem to be able to do any kind of like different lightness or like strength of of shading but I guess that's I guess that's not what their target is for this they just want you to be able to write little construction layouts and quick math notes and stuff now where am I supposed to put this pen I think there's a magnetic side somewhere there it is that's on there pretty good to a decent degree the cool thing about this pen you don't need to charge it at all how does that work whoa there's a dark mode what does that look like okay that's cool it's kind of just the photo negative I appreciate that there are 16 different gradations of of gray levels on this tablet so that actually makes it useful for not just reading books but you can read comic books because there's going to be some grayscale there obviously it's not color um but it definitely makes it more feature Rich and usable let's see if this button is worth thirty dollars click what am I shortcutting two still not highlighting do I have to map it or something one thing that's cool with this screen is you can actually change the color temperature of it which is something they have on their other Kindle like paper whites and stuff so you can go from a cool blue all the way to like orange which is nice if you're reading in bed which you should do it's terrific you're not supposed to do that though but you can if it's orange right and unlike the cheapest e-readers that I always get that rely on me having a light turned on this actually has LEDs underneath I believe there's 32 of them under the screen so because it's e-ink you can use this completely without the LEDs being on but with those LEDs you can read in the dark and you can adjust the brightness to their zero and attacking like oh up to 24 which would probably be too bright for my bedroom the thing that's cool is that you don't need like a super amount of brightness to be able to read in a in a sunny outdoor environment because reflective screens like e-rater screens even without LEDs they worked great in the in those environments so the brightness is just a bonus like the other Kindles they have like a matte anti-clare kind of finish not much to say about that this is quite satisfying what have I drawn what is that is it a box is it a book is it pointing towards you or away from you no one knows and shortcuts the default is like zero like the default's nothing or no it says it's highlighter but I couldn't get that working oh you can shortcut tool to a sticky note so that's for when you're reading books and you want to I don't think I want to test this in a second I don't think you can just mark up books and PDFs and stuff but you can add sticky notes to them yes oh what the that's the I think that's the highlighter it's not that you toggle to it you hold it down to switch to it and then release to go back to your other pen that's what's going on it's kind of nice though I guess that's kind of fewer actions oh wow now it's in left-handed mode and it'll also flip like well I guess rotate no it rotated this way before okay it'll flip that way but not this way fair fair enough I guess let's read some books it has all the Kindle functionality for getting documents onto it and you can upgrade the storage from 16 gigabytes to 64. which is just huge for documents tap on the the page to place your note exactly where you want it I rarely drag yeah right oh handwritten what's text oh I can just go like this it's kind of um asymmetrical because it has a wider bezel in this this hand so it kind of it's offsetting where you're holding that keyword which is a little bit weird what if I flip it this way will it rotate now this only rotates 180. so frustrating I think I honestly would be just better off going like this can you see what I wrote they don't have auto correct they don't have autocorrect I guess brutal so that's the sticky notes what if I use my shortcut and then tap or I hold it while tapping there it is tap it while hold what about highlighting though can't I take my highlighter and highlight on the page that sucks is that so stupid I could see that there would be technical hurdles that you would have to accomplish if you wanted to be able to just mark up any document that you brought onto your Kindle like they might have to make a completely new file like a kind of a daughter file to save alongside of your books and stuff like that I could see why you wouldn't be able to mark up that file directly in it like Steve Jobs would have figured that out and they didn't figure that out so it feels kind of like an incomplete product you would expect that like the purest form of a Kindle you can write on would be highlighting stuff like this instead of swiping uh writing in the margins like the sticky notes is cool too but I want to be able to mark this up like a pen on a damn book and I can not only that you can't even use sticky notes on manga magazines or newspapers so at that point you just have a big Kindle you know what would be nice if you could map the back button to the pen because it's kind of annoying to have to swipe down or go back that way what other settings do we have in here warmth schedule so you can actually change whether the LED is blue or orange according to a schedule so I'll turn that on you can set time yourself or you can have it time to the sunrise and stuff I guess your the schedule you're setting is just like what time do you want this brightness to be active oh but then you need to allow that location access down that makes that makes sense it couldn't just be a drop down menu I just picked Vancouver like time zone or something no but we'll just take the data instead display size there's just two options big and less big I thought there would be like a sliding scale it's not that much bigger but yeah send me send me a PDF and we'll see if I can write on it using the email below that's what you want okay uh can I mark this up yes I can write on a PDF thank God and can I write a sticky note on this I can highlight I can erase I don't know what this hand is still I think we figured out what the hand tool is so if I'm in here writing I'm just drawing but if I turn my pen into a hand and I swipe now I've turned the page and if I tab up here now I get that so turn your pen into a finger another way to do this is to go like this or if you got two of these which is quite a privilege go that way doesn't even work okay that's page one I think it's a decent product I think that the remarkable two is Superior in some ways though it is older it looks just as cool and premium it looks a little different than this it has some features that this could stand to gain although you are up against Amazon's you know the whole Kindle ecosystem and you know buying a book on Amazon and just sending it directly to your Kindle all that stuff is really cool but in terms of the drawing um I don't think they're that different and remarkable has some drawing features that are cool and it's like 20 bucks cheaper at this point if you get the basic pen on that one but being a newer device um this seems a bit faster although it's not that fast and it has more storage which is cool I don't think this is too unreal unruly or unreasonable to use as an e-reader the remarkable's probably I think it seems a little bigger and is kind of stupider as an e-reader you could still easily take this along uh in your bag or in your suitcase on a trip but you're not gonna put it in like a jacket pocket or easily have it on like on the bus or something like that if you have any bag with you you're good to go yeah one thing I wanted to try though is what the Turning of pages is like when you're holding it in your left hand because it seems like it it affords left hand holding since it's thicker on this side that's going forward I think that's okay unless you're the type who likes to tap but why not swipe it's a world of swipes we live in when you go from the 300 for the remarkable two plus at least eighty dollars for the pen you got 380 whereas the opening price for this is 340. now this is kind of a good fidget toy so who should get this should you get this instead of a cheap Android tablet really depends on your focus if if you really want it for the note-taking and the reading probably would just go for this you can do those things on an Android tablet and you can do a lot more as well but they're not going to be as Sleek they're not gonna have the battery life you're not gonna be able to read Outdoors as easily so I don't think this is a bad product by any means so thanks for watching guys if you like this video maybe check out the remarkable coverage we've done we also had Sarah host a video on one of these e-screen drawables too so check that one
