I own the Remarkable 2 tablet. If you’re trying to make a decision about buying a Remarkable 2, I can definitely recommend it. The key benefit of the Remarkable is the distraction-free writing experience.
What in any other circumstance would be a limitation is actually a plus – no apps, no browser, no email. It has one purpose, to be the ultimate replacement for pen and paper but with the benefits of digital e.g. mark up PDFs, write, sketch – literally anything you can do on paper, but with the added ability to export it anywhere.
I own an iPad Pro and the Remarkable 2 is superior in every way. The Remarkable 2 feels like paper to write on. It’s hard to explain unless you actually experience it. It’s up there with the “wow! factor” I had when I first used a Kindle and was like “wow! this looks like paper!”. The Remarkable is similar “wow! this looks like paper and feels like writing on paper!”.
If you’re an owner of a Remarkable 2, this page summarizes some of my tips, tricks, and guides for the Remarkable 2 tablet.
I hope you find this page useful.

I hope this helps someone else! PS. I'm not associated with Remarkable, but if you think ...
Remarko is a native iOS app for managing sleep screens on your Remarkable. Customizing Remarkable sleep screens is a fun way to personalize your Remarkable. It's also a great security add-on - as you can put your name, address, and contact details on the sleep screen. But for real security, don't forget to also set a device PIN.
