Ladies and gentlemen, gather ’round for the ultimate showdown in the world of fancy digital notepads! In one corner, we have the sleek and svelte Remarkable 2. And in the other corner, the new kid on the block – the colorful and curvy Remarkable Paper Pro. Let’s see how these e-ink gladiators stack up! I have them both, pricey but a very good note taking and eReading device that gets work done in a distraction-free manner!

Size Matters (Or Does It?)

The Paper Pro is packing some extra inches, boasting an 11.8″ display compared to the Remarkable 2’s 10.3″ screen. That’s right, the Paper Pro ate its Wheaties and grew up big and strong. But before you start thinking “bigger is always better,” remember – the Remarkable 2 is still thin enough to slide under a pizza parlor door at just 4.7mm thick. The Paper Pro? A practically obese 5.1mm. I can hear it huffing and puffing from here!

Fifty Shades of…Nine Colors?

In a plot twist worthy of M. Night Shyamalan, the Paper Pro has gone full technicolor with its fancy new Canvas Color display. Meanwhile, the Remarkable 2 is still rocking that classic black and white look like it’s auditioning for Casablanca. The Paper Pro supports a whopping NINE colors for writing and sketching. Nine! That’s like…a rainbow minus red. And purple. And a few others. But still, color!

Storage Wars

The Paper Pro is flexing its muscles with 64GB of storage and 2GB of RAM. It’s like the bodybuilder of e-ink tablets, ready to pump clap you up with all your PDFs and e-books. The Remarkable 2? A measly 8GB of storage and 1GB of RAM. It’s the 98-pound weakling of the digital notepad world. But hey, some people find that charming, right?

Let There Be Light!

In a shocking turn of events, the Paper Pro has discovered electricity and now comes with a reading light! No more squinting in the dark like some kind of e-ink caveman. The Remarkable 2, on the other hand, still believes in the purity of natural light. How very…Amish of it.

Price Tag Panic

Now for the moment of truth – the price. The Paper Pro struts onto the stage with a $579 price tag, while the Remarkable 2 sits pretty at $399. That’s quite a leap! For that extra $180, you could buy 45 actual paper notebooks. Or 180 pencils. Or one really fancy pen that you’ll inevitably lose within a week.

The Verdict

So, which one reigns supreme? Well, if you’re a color-loving, storage-hoarding, night-reading enthusiast with money to burn, the Paper Pro might be your soulmate. But if you prefer your digital notes with a side of nostalgia and a sprinkle of savings, the Remarkable 2 is still remarkable indeed.

In the end, whether you choose the Remarkable Paper Pro or the Remarkable 2, remember – you’re still cooler than the person next to you scribbling on actual dead trees. Now go forth and digitally doodle with pride!
