00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.960
this has been in my house for like two years this is the remarkable one

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:09.920
and my wife bought it when she randomly took a calculus class for fun because

00:00:08.559 --> 00:00:14.719
that's her idea of fun and i think she used it for probably combined 12 hours now i'm touching it

00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:20.080
for the very first time because i also have a pile of remarkable

00:00:18.240 --> 00:00:22.320
two stuff here so i like to do a side-by-side comparison of what they're

00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:26.160
like from the perspective of never using it before so we're gonna see how easy it is

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:32.480
to use as far as the stuff i got for the remarkable two

00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:34.399
you can see two types of stylus here

00:00:32.480 --> 00:00:39.120
the marker and the marker plus this is the basic one that costs

00:00:36.239 --> 00:00:41.760
fifty dollars and then this one costs a hundred dollars

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:45.440
what is the rest of the stuff okay this is a folio

00:00:43.040 --> 00:00:49.200
that's a sold separately option this appears to be

00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:52.000
the tablet itself that's 400 and you can buy it

00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:55.600
by itself but if you don't get a stylus then it's basically

00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:59.840
an e-reader and then this is another folio

00:00:56.800 --> 00:00:59.840
premium leather black

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:06.880
okay a little welcome package here

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:10.560
welcome to a better thinking community a growing movement of people committed to

00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:13.840
finding focus in a distracted world but not wanting to use paper quick start

00:01:12.880 --> 00:01:19.600
guide long press to edit or share swipe

00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:25.360
oh make an account to get the full experience on the cloud not doing that

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:26.640
not now anyway usb type a on one side

00:01:25.360 --> 00:01:33.680
and usb type c on the other side okay

00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:33.680
this is already feeling better

00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:40.720
okay whoa this is

00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:44.720
way more premium feeling and i guess it's kind of asymmetrical

00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:49.439
this is like thicker and taller and has symmetrical bezels

00:01:46.320 --> 00:01:51.200
but this one has like a spine

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:55.439
like kind of like a book except of course you can't open it and it has

00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:58.719
more of an aluminum body this actually feels really nice

00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:03.439
i know that the first one had like a plastic construction

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:06.320
for the screen whereas this one has i believe glass

00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:11.280
so i want to check out if that's going to have a different pen feel

00:02:08.399 --> 00:02:15.599
they have the same 10.3 inch screen size the same

00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:19.440
pixels per inch kind of retina level

00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:22.879
it's 1872 by 1404 pixels which is

00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:25.520
226 ppi random resolution

00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:27.840
oh cool there's just a really way more subtle power button up there compared to

00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:34.640
the big old button in the middle here but i'm gonna try i'm left-handed

00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:37.040
surprise this one's set up for right now what this does is changes what side the

00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:40.800
ui is on because they want to reduce the amount of screen that needs to be like palm

00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:45.040
rejected all the time all right now it's time for the stylus

00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:51.040
off i'm going to start with the basic one

00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:53.840
there it is it's plastic uh

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:58.000
pretty similar to the other one neither of them have any like

00:02:55.040 --> 00:03:01.360
clicky eraser or anything on them i don't know

00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:07.680
how do they attach well okay this one looks like it's got magnets basically

00:03:03.760 --> 00:03:10.319
everywhere no not the front

00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:14.560
kind of on the side though and then this one

00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:16.080
i think yeah yeah

00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.840
you just need to get a folio or something that has a little holder

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:24.080
for it or put it in your ear like an artist this one has a more

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:27.599
textured finish on it almost like sand blasted like

00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:30.400
that one plus phone that had that it's kind of grippy

00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:34.400
this one's just smooth plastic and they have graphite tips

00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:38.319
i believe these are replaceable marker tips

00:03:35.519 --> 00:03:42.080
there they are whoa this is how you take it out you like slide it in there

00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:47.280
until it gets thin and then pull it or something oh here we go

00:03:43.920 --> 00:03:49.040
there it is and then do i just like just

00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:56.080
shove that in there yeah yeah oh my god yes

00:03:53.040 --> 00:03:59.599
and it's in it's in share by email

00:03:56.080 --> 00:04:02.000
convert to pdf convert to text and send

00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:05.599
you can actually be hand write or print with your hand

00:04:02.799 --> 00:04:09.280
and then use this to convert it to text that you can then email yourself or save

00:04:07.760 --> 00:04:12.959
um which is pretty awesome but as i understand you need to be connected to the internet and

00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:16.880
i'll log into your remarkable account for that to work i believe

00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:19.519
stream beta live view stream your writing and sketching instantly by

00:04:18.320 --> 00:04:22.800
connecting to your computer that's kind of interesting there's also

00:04:21.359 --> 00:04:25.919
like 50 different templates you can use so if you want lined paper

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:29.520
or like graphing paper or whatever i just want a blank page

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:34.639
right now so i'm going to start with that i want to check out the feel first off

00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:41.040
that's like pretty tactile it has you can hear the scratchiness to it

00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:43.840
now let's see what it's like riding on glass

00:04:44.080 --> 00:04:50.800
walking on broken glass

00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:51.680
i like this v1 i am lifting the pencil

00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:57.199
off of the tablet at the end of that stroke and then i can see

00:04:55.600 --> 00:05:00.800
the stroke completing like it's finishing drawing while my pen is off

00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:05.039
just for a second there and i read that they had better latency

00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:11.759
on the glass version which is one of the reasons i switched it so i can still see that

00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:16.800
there's some latency there but it is better

00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:20.160
it is better now both the pans support

00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:21.759
um tilting so you can shade

00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:25.759
you can see i can do really dark or i can do like

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:29.360
let's see how light i can get and still register a pencil stroke

00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:33.759
it's not like real life in real life i could do see how it's getting dotted

00:05:31.440 --> 00:05:36.000
in real life i could do lighter strokes but here

00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:40.800
it's just not reading them so it doesn't have that much sensitivity though this

00:05:38.080 --> 00:05:45.120
pen does have double the sensitivity gradations than the original it's up to

00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:47.919
like 4096 or something like that where this is 2000 and something another cool

00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:52.960
thing you can do with this is you can open up pdfs full-on documents and just mark them up

00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:57.280
if you like marking up documents with a pen and then you can email them off right

00:05:55.039 --> 00:06:00.880
from there so even if you're not taking notes in class or an artist who

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:05.360
likes to draw just technically you can be an engineer and just want to mark up documents a

00:06:03.919 --> 00:06:09.039
professional project manager and send them off i could see value in that i wish there

00:06:07.440 --> 00:06:12.160
was more than just three settings with the thickness of this pencil

00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:20.400
this is my face when i am on ShortCircuit

00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:23.840
it's not a happy face but i am happy you just can't tell

00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:26.800
because i have resting and active face honestly

00:06:24.479 --> 00:06:30.960
it is the very light shading where it suffers

00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:32.240
like i really wanted that to be half

00:06:30.960 --> 00:06:37.039
unless i'm using it wrong i just don't really think this is for artists

00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:39.840
to to sketch with changing to from thick to thin

00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:43.280
helps but that's kind of just the fineness of the pen and not necessarily

00:06:41.840 --> 00:06:47.759
the lightness ah pause for a message from our sponsor

to curiosity stream today let's look at the suite marker

00:07:21.039 --> 00:07:26.479
uh this one costs twice as much it is heavier

00:07:24.880 --> 00:07:32.639
it is more premium feeling it has a clicky end on it and an eraser

00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:33.280
uh so let's check that out it doesn't

00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:36.960
have the same finish it actually feels somewhere

00:07:36.080 --> 00:07:41.199
between remarkable one and two's pens um it has

00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:45.280
a bit of a grippiness to it but not as much oh i thought i thought it was clicky

00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:48.720
it's not i think the remarkable one premium pen was clicky i wish i had it'd

00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:51.280
be nice to have that even if it didn't do anything on the mark remarkable one

00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:56.560
it didn't do anything but it's still nice to like finish something and be like

00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:59.759
you know or like i had a friend you just always clicked on his forehead when he

00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:03.599
was done ready you don't need to turn them on uh it

00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:07.520
just works that's cool let's see what the eraser is

00:08:05.440 --> 00:08:11.680
about oh that's cool it feels almost like it wobbles because

00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:16.800
it does depress a bit it doesn't click but it does depress

00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:20.639
it feels pretty realistic in that if you use the side of it it doesn't erase as

00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:25.520
thoroughly as when i tip it over on end and then it's like really on

00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:28.240
battery life uh same size battery is remarkable one

00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:31.840
so no improvement there it'll last you quite a long time these i wouldn't think

00:08:29.919 --> 00:08:35.200
that's a concern really like when everyone who has a kindle knows you just

00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:39.440
chuck it in your bag and come back days later and they're fine although i will say i'm dropped to 47

00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:43.599
now where i think i was at 50 at the beginning of this video it's a

00:08:41.839 --> 00:08:45.920
3 000 milliamp hour battery so about the same as your phone but it should go a

00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:50.240
lot farther the original one had a one gigahertz CPU

00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:54.800
unit single core this one has a dual core 1.2 gigahertz CPU

00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:59.279
it also like the first one has eight gigabytes of storage that's unchanged

00:08:56.959 --> 00:09:03.360
i guess it doesn't take a lot of room to make documents and

00:09:00.959 --> 00:09:06.000
you can just send them off and archive them if you start to

00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:08.880
fill up i claim it's the world's thinnest tablet well i mean it's kind of

00:09:07.839 --> 00:09:14.399
cheating it's pretty damn thin though the form factor is cool this reminds me of what

00:09:12.560 --> 00:09:18.000
steve jobs probably had in his mind when he was first conceiving of what laptops

00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:22.560
could be like back when they had like you know the laptops were like this thick and you

00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:27.279
thought oh it'd be cool if it was like a book this is just like a slate like this is

00:09:25.839 --> 00:09:32.399
like a rigid notebook i want to know how much more it

00:09:30.959 --> 00:09:36.160
weighs than the original given that the

00:09:34.560 --> 00:09:40.880
original was plastic all the way around so 350 grams

00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:46.560
versus something that has an aluminum construction and glass on the top

00:09:44.560 --> 00:09:48.560
400 grams so that's pretty good the most basic folio you can buy from their

00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:56.160
website i believe it's seventy dollars that's probably what that was

00:09:52.160 --> 00:09:58.640
okay really simple it doesn't feel

00:09:56.160 --> 00:10:01.920
great okay it's not like windowed or anything it's this is just a carrying

00:09:59.839 --> 00:10:07.920
case and i guess it has a stylus sleeve also nice and tight

00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:11.440
yeah this is just basic protection pull it out it's not going to add a lot of

00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:15.519
bulk it doesn't have any extra pockets or buttons or anything i actually prefer

00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:20.079
this design now if you wanted to spend more i think

00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:23.920
up to 150 bucks for the leather ones okay this basically

00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:28.480
just looks like like a moleskine book like a notebook almost oh yeah see that

00:10:26.959 --> 00:10:32.640
was kind of satisfying you can see that there

00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:35.680
uh oop there goes my pen it doesn't look like it's meant to be like tented or be

00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:39.360
an easel but look at that like this is pretty

00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:46.480
sci-fi uh now where does your stylus go

00:10:43.760 --> 00:10:49.760
yeah that's okay that's okay if someone shoves you in the hallway and wants your

00:10:47.920 --> 00:10:52.000
lunch money it's not like really on there

00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:57.680
i don't think i would trust this honestly see how it's uh it's not flat

00:10:55.920 --> 00:11:01.600
it's an incline so that means as you go farther on the page

00:10:58.959 --> 00:11:03.680
the hill slope adjusts as i get to the end of the page i'm not even on it

00:11:02.959 --> 00:11:08.560
anymore that sucks so i would use it in landscape

00:11:06.959 --> 00:11:12.399
or i mean it's easy enough to just pop it out

00:11:10.560 --> 00:11:18.320
get rid of that and then just put it back in at the end of class

00:11:14.880 --> 00:11:20.240
and go this is sick but if is this 150

00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:24.079
bucks i need to check because that's a lot so this is 69 then

00:11:23.200 --> 00:11:29.279
there's a book version of this material that's a hundred dollars

00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:34.959
then this is the premium leather book version and this is a hundred and

00:11:31.040 --> 00:11:34.959
fifty us dollars

00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:40.560
that's come on so what you can do is buy

00:11:38.640 --> 00:11:44.079
the remarkable one they're still selling it on their

00:11:41.839 --> 00:11:47.519
website with a folio and a stylus for 300 bucks

00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:49.920
so considering the folio is 70 bucks and the stylish is 50 and then the thing

00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:54.959
itself you can get all of that for 300

00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:58.399
or even a refurbished one for 20 off of that given that they have the same software

00:11:56.560 --> 00:12:01.440
and this like still feels fine it doesn't look as cool

00:12:00.079 --> 00:12:05.519
and you're going to notice the RAM difference when you go to open new documents

00:12:03.760 --> 00:12:08.639
turning pages about the same speed but when you open a new pdf it'll open

00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:12.240
faster on the new one but if you're strapped for cash and you don't think you're going to use this a

sweet and slick so that's about all i have to say about it i think it's

00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:31.920
actually pretty cool i think if this is what you want you won't be disappointed

00:12:29.680 --> 00:12:35.760
i think i'll be selling this because my wife never used it and i'm still mad

00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:38.959
although i can't find my kindle right now so maybe i should just be using this as an
