Had mine since June or so, I use it daily for work to record my to-do’s, my working notes, notes from the two dozen or so projects I’ve been involved with since I bought this thing, all of my department and cross department meetings notes and more. Then I started putting my personal lists and journals and notes on it as well. For me it was a total game changer.

Before, I was trying to write everything down quickly and then figure out how to either reference it later or store it digitally somehow. This usually either meant recreating the notes on the computer or stopping to take pictures of the notes to awkwardly file with typed notes. This thing has stopped all of that craziness, given me one place to write everything down and given me several places I can reference it all from via the app on my phone or various computers without a second step. I don’t think I’ve written on a piece of paper, minus a birthday card here or there, since I got it.

All that aside, it just feels good to write on. I use the Marker Plus with mine so I can’t speak to other pens, but I imagine it’s the soft nib that really does it. The experience is so paper-like it really does blow my mind in a “its magical” sort of way. In fact, I’ve gotten so used to writing on it that writing with an ink pen feels off to me now.

So if you have the use case to use it, I’d say it’s completely worth it, especially comparing other devices. If you are looking for bells, whistles, and web browsers, this ain’t it. If you’re looking for something of quality you can sit down and write on day in and day out and to be able to organize your notebooks into groups and folders and that is worth something in itself to you, this is the device in my opinion.
