    Replacing paper for handwriting.

    That’s literally my only use for my iPad. Which is sort of sad, since it’s a very capable device, just hamstrung by Apple’s shitty software.

      then get a remarkable or a supernote. both are vastly superior for handwriting notes on.

        Yeah, I use a boox but have the same take away. Any eink tablet is going to be 10x better than an iPad for notes.

            Feel is a big part of it. Eink devices don’t tend to have glossy screens so there’s texture when writing on them. Further, due to the why eink works what gets written looks very much like writing on paper, no matter the lighting.
