iPad Pro vs Remarkable 2: The Perfect Combination | Here's Why I Use Both!

For months, I searched YouTube trying to figure out which device would be better for my needs. I quickly discovered that there wasn't a winner. The WIN was adding both of the devices to my workflow. Surprisingly, it's been a game-changer for me.

So glad to find someone else that uses the iPad and rM2 together. I felt kind of guilty running the two side by side, but to see someone else do the same is validating ;)

Omg I’m so glad you loved the full focus planner. I loved that system but it’s a lot of paper for each notebook. Which is why I’m looking into the Remarkable Pro.

Great video, it’s helpful to have all your notes in one place.
Can you use your iPad/Apple Pencil to add to a Remarkable note on the Remarkable iPad app?

[HatefYaminiOnline]

This makes so much sense to me. Thank you for sharing your workflow.

I would love the R2 to be able to import to Apple Notes.
I’ve now got two products with notes in both and I forget which note is where.

I upgraded my iPad as well, but I still have the same problem - it's in sidecar mode, and I'm taking notes on a pad & post its next to me - it's just too inefficient to use the iPad for taking quick notes. Of course, I lose the post its, the notes, etc. I have to take pictures of all of them which is annoying. However, the price point of the Remarkable is insane 😞

Thank you. Really very helpful. The way you layout your use case. Recognising that there is another way to see it. Not just either, or. But also. The most compelling I’ve heard for the remarkable.

I would have to 100% agree with you. Wrughting somthing down it’s more efficient than typing it down, I believe it's a good way to remember things and help you stay on track. But I'm the one to talk, I don't write things down as I should all the time.

Scott I started to watch you when you where just begging your journey. I'm polish but grown up in Ireland. Before COVID I was engaged doing videos and then everything changed. I'm working as a Hotel Manager in the city centre of Dublin. I'm going to be honest. I didn't watch you for a long time because you were moving forward and I was going back, but now I found something weird agreement with myself that I understood and need to move forward. You are a smart guy, thank you for the wedding behind the scenes 😅 helped me a lot even I did it once by myself. It went great even though the prist locked my cameras in the church 😂 always need to improvise like you. I didn't touch computer at home and camera for years but then yesterday I remembered about you. Let see what happens 😅 thank you man. It's probably my first comment on you tube 😂 I hope you read it 😎 Cheers!

Great video, thank you for the comparison. What is the best note taking app to use instead of the remarkable? Is there one that is close. I'm not really seeing One Note as an option that I like

[BV]

Thanks Scott! Great Video! Do you still use the Remarkable for quick note taking? Do you ever export your notes for long term storage (like meeting notes) perhaps as a pdf to Notion or some other PKM? I loved the Remarkable and have even tried the Boox, but at the end of the day the writing feel is great on either E-ink device, and it fits perfectly JUST for quick notes - replacing Paper…. THANX

[drwendybaker]

Thank you for this video. I have an iPad Pro and ordered a Remarkable Paper Pro as an additional device for patient notes. I was feeling guilty until watching your video 😊 I really like the idea of keeping it on and next to my iPad. Thanks again!

My MacBook Pro 16' with the M1 PRO chip, my iPad mini 6th generation and my RemarKable 2 are a winning trio!

[diotitus]

That was a really good review! Thank you!

[seamusstout]

Great stuff Scott! I want one now! lol

[Coboldt]

Ich freue mich schon auf deinen Apfel-Birnen-Vergleich demnächst...

[LASadvgrrl]

My Remarkable has saved many trees. Love how I can import files from Onedrive but the drawback is you can only import PDF's. I would love to see WORD docs to be added. Not sure why this isn't feasible. I love the feel, the different "pens" you can buy and how this little device has actually made me more organized. It's a notebook. That's it and I love not having sticky notes all over as well as wasting paper.

[mish]

Did you filmed this with the 20 mm 1.8 ? Or something else?

[DigitalSapient]

The ReMarkable 2 does actually connect to the internet. You can send emails, but you can't receive them. Also, you can turn writing into text and you can connect all nptes and PDFs via their Connect service and access OneDrive & Google Drive and you can see all the notes you take on ReMarkable onto an iPad...so you missed a whole lot in a good review otherwise.

[dwilson]

Remarkable is still better than all the other e ink hands down. No distractions is the key. I agree with this but I'm an android user and use the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ instead of the insane fruit
