Testing Amazon's Kindle Scribe (2024) brought on an analog ache and a longing for days unmarred by today's AI fever.

Reading and writing come together nicely with the Amazon Kindle Scribe 2024. Is it worth the money? Find out in my full review.
Metallic Jade color is beautiful ; Plenty of space with 10.2-inch display ; Lightweight and portable ; Easily read and write together ; Pen is very responsive with no latency ; Useful AI tools
Limitations for note-writing in books ; Monochrome display
“The Kindle Scribe 2024 is a perfect combination of reading and writing in a single device.”
Expert review by : Mark Jansen (digitaltrends.com)
With a big screen, included stylus, and long battery life, the Kobo Elipsa 2E seemingly has everything it needs to become the king of the e-notebooks.
Bright and clear display In-book annotations Big list of supported files Google Drive and Dropbox integration Weeks of battery life
Stylus needs separate charging Sluggish performance in areas Dodgy exporting
“The Kobo Elipsa 2E isn't a gadget you absolutely need, but it's a lovely e-reader that I think you'll love.”

The Scribe remains a great digital notebook for Kindle loyalists, even if not much has changed over the original.
Thin and lightweight. Large display for writing and reading. You can now write directly within a book. New generative AI features are minor but useful. Includes Premium Pen.
Still not waterproof. No color features. Active Canvas is unintuitive.

This is the best Kindle Scribe yet, but it still needs some work
Biggest Kindle you can buy ; Great reading experience ; Big display that's easy on the eyes ; Redesigned stylus feels comfy to use
Price bump hurts ; Not waterproof ; Taking notes still feels a bit awkward
The Kindle Scribe (2024) improves upon its predecessor, delivering a more comfortable writing and doodling experience thanks to an upgraded stylus, redesigned chassis, and new AI features. But the price is so high that it's basically as much as an iPad...

Amazon's new Kindle Scribe looks to fix some of the biggest complaints with the original, but there's still work to be done in the hardware department.
