My rm2 is in the post but have been thinking about spending > £100 on the pen.

Are there any alternatives.

I see on Amazon that Lamy do a nice E-pen

My use will principally be for medical note taking.

I got mine a few weeks ago and picked up the Norris digital jumbo, it's great. No magnets but if you have a case with a pen slot it stays secure enough.

Do you have a remarkable 1 or 2? Wondering how it works with the first edition, especially the erasor function

[–] Steamy_Guy@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I've got the the 2, sorry. I have tried it with my generic drawing tablet and the eraser function worked so I'd say it's worth trying at least.

There are many, but my favorite and the one I'm using now is the Galaxy Tab S7 pen. It has a very nice pressure sensitivity and a side button. The official one costs around 50$ but I bought a knockoff that works just as well, it only lacks Bluetooth (that has no use on the Remarkable anyhow). It only cost me 19€.

Personal fan of the Kindle Scribe Premium and Lamy AL-Star EMR pens.

STAEDTLER Noris digital jumbo 180J 22. EMR Stylus with soft digital eraser. Works great.

I have one and love it.

I had 2 remarkable marker plus’ fail on me in less than a year. I use the Wacom one (great) and the kindle scribe premium. Probably the scribe pen more due to its magnet (which works well on the remarkable) For both I use the “lamy hack” take enable eraser capability with the button but you don’t have to.

It really depends on the diameter of pen you like. If it’s wide, then LAMY. Skinny, Samsung or knock off. Medium, the Noris Jumbo. I use all 3 on my Supernote depending on my hand and how much writing I have been doing.

I have been using the Amazon Scribe premium pen and i have had 0 issues. I'm pretty happy with it, it has the premium features for almost half the cost of the official non-premium pen.
