Personal vs A6: My Thoughts + Experience

Hello! Welcome to another video. Today I wanted to share my experience with two popular planner sizes: Personal and A6. I have used both sizes for quite some time now and am sharing what I love about both, and which do I prefer to use now. Enjoy. Xx

Thank you for the comparison of the two! Still trying to figure out my next size to try. Lol (P.S. An A6 paper is 1/2 of an A5, cut in half through the width (does that make sense?), and then rotated 90 degrees.)

We use A4, A5 and A6 in Europe. You fold an A4 sheet to get an A5, and A6 is exactly an A5 folded in two, so I personally buy A4 stacks of paper, 500 sheets, and cut them in 4 parts with my paper trimmer and I get 2, 000 planner refills for less than €6.

I had no idea there’s so many variations in the A6 size! Why do they make it so confusing? Like these two in your video: the personal size (tall narrow pages) looks wider than the A6! But when you open it, the pages are narrow. Like what?! So when you order them online you have to double check the dimensions because a lot of sites will say A6 when they really mean Personal. And then there’s “true A6” and “personal wide”. Ugh what the heck so many terms with tiny differences 😂

I didn’t like personal size because the paper is too narrow also! I switched to pw because of it and enjoyed that size so much more. Now I’m in a6 and absolutely loooove this size!

I never thought I would be in a personal because I love A6 and pocket. I’m in a personal moterm now and I love it. I started using it because I feel in love with some printed inserts that don’t come in A6 size.

After having an A5 for a while, I wanted to try the personal size but now I think the B6 may be better. I write big and don’t like narrow inserts. Thanks.

I am very interested in the a6, I like wider more than tan taller. I am trying to be more organized with my time but hate big planners and ones that already come with the date marked cause I waist pages.

I just purchased my first Moterm A6 and I am excited to try it out as my EDC... I have been binge-watching setup videos to get some ideas of what can actually fit in there. I love your setups &
VIBE!

Thank you for this video! Why do they make the sizes so confusing? There's a thousand different sub-sizes in the A6 size category all with tiny slight differences. WHY?!

[jbean]

Love this comparison! Where do you buy your stickers?

[DiaHungary]

Thank you for the comparison, it was really useful for me! :) I didn’t hear about A6 moterm, do you know when will they be available? (And where? On aliexpress, too?) Thank you! :)

I love A6 but preparing the printable inserts is really a little bit burdensome.😓The accessories are also unavailable in many stationary shops. It seems that many users switch from A6 to personal size this year but I don’t know why🤔

[Mjplanner]

Love it! I can’t wait to see when you get your custom! 💗

[AngeeBox]

it was nice hearing your thoughts on both sizes! I love your videos. they’re very practical and honest. you also have such an amazing vibe when you talk/explain things! I’m in a pocket at the moment for my EDC but was just in an A6 right before that and I really loved it, and before that, in a personal. A6 is really the sweet spot! I felt very hesitant to switch but really wanted to make my new pocket purchase work for awhile 😂 do you think you would ever try a Personal Wide? the extra inch on the width would make the writing experience better and your hand wouldn’t run off! or even B6 size? I think they’re similar in size

[JustScribble]

CarpeDiem isn’t a true personal size cover. It’s wider so it fits wider inserts - like FCC. Might fit PW to but not sure

[gailygail]

Hi! I have a question, can the personal inserts fit in an A6 planner or vice versa?

[yvettecasey-hunter]

Did you ever consider a personal wide? Since you say your hand falls off the page of a personal.

[RoxxyVega]

Same reason I went with personal lol I tried to fit in a personal for January but found myself missing A6

[roslynnpieters]

Would a Personal Wide insert fit into the Carpe Diem personal folder?

Hello!
what binder are you using for your A6?
Also, where do you get the paper refills for the personal binder?
this gets confusing just because when you look for refills on amazon it lists A5 and A6 but not "personal" I currently have a "personal" binder I believe since the paper looks the same as your personal binder, but i am thinking of switching to A6 - the problem though is that most of the binder on amazon aren't true A6 sizes.
