reMarkable Paper Pure Review: Great Hardware Held Back By Bad Philosophy

Engadget praised reMarkable’s Paper Pure for best-in-class handwriting, lower latency, and a sharp monochrome E Ink display in a refined, repair-friendly design.

The device adds upgraded hardware, active stylus support, encryption, secure boot, and enterprise-focused features.

But the review criticized the lack of a backlight, no typing option, and weak software integration and app support.

The launch also comes as reMarkable faces layoffs and leadership changes amid softer demand and rising costs.
