๐Ÿšซโš ๏ธ ATTENTION ALL POTENTIAL BUYERS: STAY AWAY FROM REMARKABLE โš ๏ธ๐Ÿšซ

Hey fellow Redditors,

I've never felt compelled to write a negative review until now, but my experience with the Remarkable tablet has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel obligated to share my story to save others from a similar fate.

I purchased the Remarkable device around two years ago, and it's been a series of disappointments and frustrations ever since. The issues began with the device's inability to support Chinese fonts, a critical detail that was conveniently omitted during the purchase process. Despite reporting this flaw multiple times, Remarkable did nothing to address it.

Fast forward to recent weeks when the device's synchronization became impractical, leaving me with a device that was essentially useless. I decided to reach out to Remarkable support, and the nightmare escalated from there. The return process for the faulty device was unnecessarily complicated, involving a long drive to print documents.

Upon receiving the replacement, I encountered the same problems within a month. After diligently following all the steps provided by their support team, the only response I received was blaming the pairing issue on the installation of Chinese fonts. Ridiculous, right? I was never informed that installing fonts could render the device useless.

The frustration, time, and energy wasted on this device are beyond measure. I've tried to communicate directly with the Remarkable team, but my pleas have fallen on deaf ears. The lack of acknowledgment and support is unacceptable.

I'm turning to the Reddit community to share my experience and to urge anyone considering a Remarkable purchase to think twice. The lack of transparency, poor customer service, and a defective product make this a regrettable investment.

Save yourself the headache and consider other options. I wish I had.

Stay informed, stay away from Remarkable.

Just got my rM this morning. I checked rM for years from m1 prototyping until I found my collegue had 1. Limited languages supported is not a problem at all since the webpage mentions clearly ONLY certain of languages supported. No chinese? You should have known that before you bought. Installed external fonts and crashed the machine? Well, rM is not an open source platform and it doesn't mention you CAN do whatever you want. If you did, that's your own responsibility. I even feel the customer service is quite nice for your irrational usage and inquery.
