They mention that although the Super Note’s plastic build and less bright screen might initially disappoint users accustomed to the other devices, its design choices make it more durable and portable. The speaker praises the Super Note for its robust plastic screen and the practical folio case that enhances portability and provides reliable pen storage.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the intuitive and natural feel of a specific device, comparing it with others based on screen brightness and writing experience. The Books device is praised for its backlit screen, while the Remarkable 2 and Super Note are noted for lacking this feature. Remarkable 2 has a brighter screen compared to the Super Note, which affects readability indoors.
The Super Note stands out for its unique writing feel, using hard nibs and a soft display, opposite to the other devices. This creates a sensation similar to writing on the first page of a new notebook, which may be preferred depending on personal writing pressure. The speaker, who prefers not to write with much pressure, finds this feature less enjoyable.
The Super Note’s software is highlighted as a major strength, indicating thoughtful design and a versatile, user-friendly toolbar. Despite personal preferences, the speaker appreciates the Super Note’s software for enhancing the digital notebook experience.

In this segment of the video, the speaker highlights several features and advantages of the Supernote tablet. They praise its customizable toolbar, which can be moved to accommodate left-handed users, reducing accidental button presses. The speaker appreciates the two-finger page turn feature and the shared tool preferences across notebooks, which streamline the user experience compared to other tablets like the Boox and Remarkable. They also commend the ease of switching between pen and highlighter tools within the toolbar, which is simpler than on the Remarkable. The speaker notes that Supernote’s software is continuously improving, enhancing usability and organization, such as through the recent toolbar update. They emphasize that the Supernote feels most similar to a physical notebook, particularly because of its organization features like pinning documents and pages for quick access, making it excellent for those who maintain long, evolving notebooks.

In this segment, the speaker describes features and capabilities of a digital notebook, highlighting its index and navigation functionalities. Users can flag important to-dos with a star for easy retrieval and erase the star once tasks are moved to a to-do list. Titles can be indexed in the table of contents, facilitating easy navigation. Notebooks can be auto-named by date, removing the need for manual titling. The Supernote’s page flips and animations are noted for their responsiveness. The speaker favors Supernote over Remarkable 2 for navigation and usability unless the latter is hacked. Wishlist items include setting highlighter thickness, a tool-switching feature via finger slide (similar to Remarkable’s hack), and exporting documents as true vector PDFs rather than raster-based.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the differences between three digital tablets: the Books, the Super Note, and the Remarkable 2. The Books tablet stands out for its ability to export vectors directly, rendering higher DPI text, and seamlessly integrating with To-Do apps like Todoist. The Super Note, while praised for its organizational software and smooth gel pen-like feel, lacks direct export to Google Drive and easier template grid management. The Remarkable 2 offers an experience comparable to the Super Note but with slightly less text clarity. The video is particularly insightful for individuals who maintain paper to-do lists or planners and prefer a gel pen writing experience. However, artists who desire a pencil-on-paper feel might not find these devices as appealing. The speaker concludes by encouraging viewers to explore reviews on these tablets and to reach out with any questions.
