I am in love with this Kindle Scribe. The text is very easy on the eyes. I find that you can read for hours without your eyes getting tired, which is really important to me since I have to read a lot of literature some of which is for my profession. This Kindle scribe is so lovely and effective. I really like the option of taking notes. It comes handy since I have to read a lot of literature that is meant for my professional development and growth. I am taking notes a lot in the process. And it is so easy to take notes with this Kindle Scribe. The pen is easy to hold and fits the hand perfectly. I am also subscribed to Kindle Unlimited and can easily browse through the titles on the Scribe. I have an incredible library of Kindle books since I love shopping for Kindle books and I love my Kindle Unlimited Library as well all which is easily accessible on my Kindle Scribe which I really love. Thank you Amazon!!!!
I also wanted to mention that it is light weight, very easy to hold and the battery is great. It charges so quickly and lasts a very long time. It is a truly great companion if you love to read!

Here’s what customers are saying
I love the large screen and find [it] more comfortable for reading. I use a larger font size to aid my vision.
S. Farrel
This is inspiring me to read more… you can highlight text and add notes to text right on the book… for me that was huge! I like both highlighting and taking notes and this makes it so easy.
– Chris Osorio

Great hardware and basic experience, software updates needed
I have never used a Kindle before and purchased the Scribe for it's notetaking abilities.My goal was to be able to write and keep notes by date, correct as needed and transfer to other applications, but keep the original.1) Cost effective device, with a long battery life. I charged the Scribe when I first purchased it and have been using it on and off for scribbling down notes from meetings since January 10th. I still have 21% battery life left (wifi on and off). This thing has amazing battery life - charging it for the first time today. A review mentioned the battery life and pen nibs are poor. This has not been my experience - still using the original pen nib and it does not look worn.2) Basic features (writing / erasing). Haven't compared it to anything else, but it's pretty close to writing on paper. There is sometimes a lag on the erase feature, but it is not an issue. One thing that would be nice, is to have the pens programmable button (or the eraser on back) allow selectable erase (press, hold and draw a circle around the text you want to erase). I fine the eraser on the back of the pen not so useful. Writing is excellent (only issue is that it can sometimes be glitchy close to the right of the screen. Hopefully this is a software glitch that will be fixed and seems to happen on PDF's - not a huge problem. Navigation is a bit on the counter-intuitive side - will take getting used to.3) Notebooks. Default notebook templates are limited and basic. Missing features that were added in Feb's update : Subfolders, Page Navigation and Pen styles For me this fixes 1.5 issues - subfolders and page navigation - page navigation would be better with search, so it's half the solution. There is no calendar template with default year, month day's. This would make it simple to track notes in one notebook. The only way to do this in notebooks is to write them down. No search feature, no OCR, no cut/copy/paste (please add this!) . These are very limiting on the notebooks side and important in taking notes. I understand this is coming and am looking forward to it and am willing to wait. Navigation to pages within the notebook is available with the fix. This is much better, but takes time - search would be much better or a calendar notebook to get to the date. I can't stress enough how important cut, copy and paste are.4) Saving grace to 3). Found a site where someone create PDF files of calendars by year. They are hyperlinked, so you can click on year, month day and write as many notes as you want. Love it and it was free. Am using this exclusively while I wait for the Scribe versions of this in notebooks.Overall, the hardware is excellent. Software is lacking, but that can and is being updated. Price is reasonable (I got it on sale). Did not pick up the Kindle branded case as I found an off brand for $24 and it's very good.
