We’ve warmed up to the Kindle Scribe since first reviewing it at launch. The ebook reader’s large 10.2-inch display is large for reading, but we felt the e-reader’s note-taking capabilities lacked substance. That’s changed considerably over the past year as Amazon rolled out a slew of updates, any of which added handwriting recognition, more pen styles, improved notebook organization, and the ability to make notations straight on individual pages.
Amazon’s base Kindle Scribe Essentials Bundle comes with a 16GB Kindle Scribe, a Basic or Premium Pen, a power adapter, and a leather folio cover in the colour of your choice. Read our Kindle Scribe review.
