A6 Planner V. Pocket Planner | Which Portable Planner Size Is Right For You? | Plan With Bee

Hopefully this video will help any of you who are interested in purchasing either a True A6 Ring Planner or a Pocket Ring Planner. In this video I discuss measurements of these two, their pros & cons & which I personally prefer right now. As a functional planner gal who truly maximizes the functionality of smaller, more compact planners, I feel I can give a solid review of both of these sizes & help you figure out which one you might be more interested in purchasing! I am featuring my Moterm Pocket Ring planner & my Van Der Spek (VDS) A6 (unwidened) ring planners to compare! Enjoy!

I started in a personal TN but soon went to an A6 TN as the inserts were a little wider. After being in the A6 TN, I found there was A6 rings and about one year ago that's what I went into & I love love the size. Fits in my purse and with my rheumatoid arthritis affecting my hands the A6 is easier to lift & use. Great video B...thx!

If only I could have the cuteness of my pocket, full size of a6, and portability of a9 😭 💕 love the video thx

I’ve been a die hard fan of pocket planners since probably August and I recently tried A6 planners and let me say, I’m in love! They are both my go to sizes at the moment!

I just set up my first ring planners B6, personal and Filofax Finsbury pocket. Pocket is my favourite right now.

I have no idea what I would do without you Planner Girl! XOXO

Awesome, helpful video. I've been debating whether to try an a7 or a6. This was super helpful in trying to make that deision.

[wendyhoward]

Thanks for telling the differences in these planners. Blessings.

Great video! I love my A6 - I have a Succes Agenda and have been in the same one since 2008!!!! I have soldered my artwork on the cover and now I'm never moving out of it. I use mine as a scrapbook, so great for punching in my own artwork; magazine clippings, art postcards and as you say, photos, also one thing I love over pocket is the page staggering you can do - what I mean is that you can also put pocket sized pages in with the A6 or collage magazine clippings and photos staggered over each other of different sizes. It makes a sort of beautiful garden and I love it! With 25mm rings I can have that art scrapbook journal thing going on and then my diary pages too. I just use Filofax personal and trim the inserts down a little

Thank you, I'm now sold on A6. Great video, thank you for your hard work and sharing it with us.💜

I use a pocket ( plus ) size and it’s the Goldilocks for me🥰

[mariannemjreed]

So informative since I will be adding an a6 ring. And I’m loving the fact that you can have a Stalogy inside 💜

Thank you so much for this comparison! I was about to buy a VDS custom pocket widened for pocket plus inserts, but I decided to go for a custom senior after watching this. The dimensions of custom senior are just slightly bigger than the pocket, and I don't have to ask for this much changes (like widening the planner), wich to be honest makes the senior 20 mm more affordable than the pocket.

I always use personal rings but A6 has intrigued me. Thanks for the video!👏

[FaerieDust]

I used to do a kind of hybrid thing - I've got a couple of Filofax Finsbury pockets that I used for a while, and they'll fit papers just shy of 14x9 cm. A6 is 15x10 cm and pocket is 12x8 cm (give or take a few mm) and I'd figured out a good in-between size that fit quite snugly in the Finsbury. I got a decently large paper size in a more compact cover, it wws great!

In that same vein, some of the wider Franklin Covey pocket binders take A6 as well, though iirc they use their own hole spacing so you can't move the inserts to regular A6 binders without mangling them with double punched holes everywhere...

I may or may not have rewound the video and turned the sound up to try and hear the cat snoring...XD But thank you for this! I have been trying to decide what size to get because an A5 is just too big for me and this has convinced me to try the A6.

[DawnUlm-qmbf]

What brand is your A6 planner cover? Its

[kyliecrump]

🤔 hmm watching this video has made me think an A6 will work instead of the b6, , as my current personal journal is a A6 stalogy. This has given me a lot to think about, thank you Berlynn, i have found this very helpful. :)

[amandadeardoff]

I just bought an A6 from paper bound creations because it was a reasonable price to try out a new size. I know pocket is too small for me so I’m excited to try it, I eventually want to get a vds as well though not sure what leather, so many options

[Cheeries]

I love looking at your videos. The problem I have with this video is now I think I have to buy the A6 planner. I do love pocket planners but I feel limited with them I think the A6 might work.

[Grantplus]

Have you ever switch in between planners in between years. 2021 is almost over and I’m thinking of going smaller. Due to covid.
