reMarkable pen tip support replacement in c/remarkable@hardware.watch
[–] exophades@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Making a solid tip might damage the screen, it's better to make nibs that wear out quickly than a screen that wears out, this is basic physics, something is gotta give.

The company spent several years working on the writing expetience, I am sure they studied all the possibilities and adopted the optimal approach.

Can I keep the rM2 plugged in all the time (alien.top)
 

Hi there,

I am a heavy user of the rM 2 (4+ hours a day) and have to recharge the tablet every two days at most. I was thinking about simply plugging in the tablet while using it (with my laptop), all the time, and never have to worry about the battery again.

But my gut feeling tells me the battery won't be happy about it. What do you think ?

Is the battery draining too fast ? in c/remarkable@hardware.watch

Then they probably messed up something in the latest update. I read somewhere that the screen refreshes (when it turns black and then white again) make the tablet reach peak consumption for a moment and drain the battery. I am wondering how one can minimize these refreshes while writing on the tablet.

If you turn off the Wi-Fi do you still notice excessive battery drain ? Is there any way to optimize battery use and reverse the changes after updates ?

Is the battery draining too fast ? (alien.top)
 

I just got the reMarkable 2 some days ago. I noticed the battery drops by 1% for like every 10 minutes of use (wifi turned off), and I think this is a bit too fast for the two weeks period everybody is talking about.

Is this normal ?

How long do your nibs last with the fine liner ? (alien.top)
 

Hi there,

I just discovered through this subreddit that using the fine liner extends the tips' life, but no info on how long exactly ?

I just got my rM 2 and I like it a lot, I think I am going to use it like 6+ hours everyday, mainly for math problem solving. I ordered it from the U.S. since it's not available in my country, so it's not easy for me to get replacement items.
