Rocketbook Reusable Digital Notebook - Smart Notepad A4 Black, Wirebound Note Book To Do List Pad, Dotted Paper with Frixion Erasable Pen and Wipe, Office Gadget with Rocketbook App Reduce Paper Waste

I very rarely write reviews on Amazon, but the Everlast has certainly left such an impression on me that I have to give it one. I bought the Everlast based on the review by Thomas Frank, as it would almost fix the issues that I have with note-keeping. Context: I am currently in sixth form and have to keep notes for class and other studies, as well as personal projects, and most of the paper notes that I have are just collecting dust, un-indexed and using space that I don't have a lot of; if I need to refer back to my notes for content already covered, it's like having to find a needle in a haystack sometimes. When I got it, I was really impressed by the build, and the quality of the "paper"; it has a glossy texture to it that is a dream to write with using the included the black Frixion pen. One nitpick was that the ink does take about 10-15 seconds to dry onto the page, which would rule this out if you are left-handed and tend to put your hand onto the page however if you can write comfortably with a gel pen or some other inky pens, you can get on with this. After trialling the writing, I set up the Rocketbook app and started to scan in the pages. I tend to be a bit of a stickler when it comes to companion apps but it is wonderful - the UI is intuitive and easy to navigate and set up the icons at the bottom of the page, and the actual scanning of the pages is quick and pain free, as well as the scans themself being clear. After that, wiping the pages down with the included cloth is really easy (given that the cloth has enough water on it) and is just as quick to dry. Overall, I was extremely impressed with the notepad, and it has become my daily driver for school. There is odd quirk here and there, such as the ink drying time and it only using Frixion pens, but I knew about those going into this. If you are a student, professional, or human, get this and it will add so many productivity points to your life.

Update - 20th January 2021, I have used this book constantly at work for over 1 year and it has been excellent for me. I used to carry multiple notebooks with me for the different projects I manage and have been able to replace all of them with the Rocketbook. There are regular updates to the mobile app, I scan direct to my work Google account via Android phone and personal files are scanned to my personal Google account via my IPhone. I have only had this for a couple of weeks but have used it several times already. I read many reviews before buying this due to the cost, for some reason the blue cover option was very much cheaper than the other colours and being more focussed on value for money rather than being a fashionista I purchased the cheaper, blue, one. The pen writes very well, no problems yet, there were a number of reviews where I saw people complaining about the writing disappearing when the notebook gets warm such as being left in the car during a sunny day, if you read the instructions it quite clearly warns about this but it also informs you how to get the ink to reappear - put the notebook in the fridge to cool down & hey presto, the writing comes back. My advice to anyone that purchases this is to read the instructions / guide properly and just adhere to these and everything will work properly. The cloth that comes with it is very good quality and cleaning the pages is very easy to do, if you follow the guidelines. My handwriting isn't the best but the app has no problem creating the pdf files correctly, I have used the option to transcribe my handwriting simultaneously when scanning which has proved I need to improve my handwriting significantly although the transcription was very amusing! All things being said, I think this is a very good tool and it has enabled me to significantly reduce the load in my work bag now I don't have to use a different notebook for each project I am working on.

Very useful to use this as a backup to iPad Pro, useful when the battery is low. The frixon pen that comes with it, writes on the quality, smooth paper fluidly, like a rollerball . Great to have a good quality plastic cover that doesn't wear out of get damaged as easily as paper. Mine came with a rocket cloth to wipe off. Rubber on pen works surprisingly well. The 8 x 11 size works best for me , as I'm used to using A4 size. This will replace the huge volume of papers/notes, I have. Also like that I can put something printed on the middle of the page & it scanned too. Works with onedrive, Dropbox & other apps, easily. love that you can assign where it goes by crossing a symbol at the bottom before you scan. And there's other frixion coloured pens that work well. My 1 disappointment was mine came with 16 double sided pages (32 writable sides) rather than the 36 pages advertised. I need the extra pages as I do a lot of writing Elfinbook 2.0 has more pages & is cheaper on Amazon, but the rocketbook app is slightly better & easier to work quickly (you ll need 3G or wifi) . Elfinbook has a pen loop holder on the bottom of the A5 book. This doesn't but you can hook a pen,s pocket holder on the book. Will update when I've had more use from it. Kids love it & think the rubbing out is magic. I Ve got them their own rocket colouring books ( another great idea as saves their pictures, & great learning tools, keeping the place tidy). If it had 36 pages I would've given it 5 stars. But it doesn't disappoint functionally & is already helping with my organisation Elfinbook doesn't have the icons at the bottom of pages. Debatable if you actually need it there , rather than just in the app when you scan it. It has more pages though. Only had both for a few days , so will update review. At the moment I'm liking the rocketbook more, although elfinbook is a lower price. Just need to work out the different cloud links in it.

This is a really nice product, and so far it has worked very well for me. I use OneNote for project-related notes, but prefer to write notes during meetings and for to-do lists, etc. In the past I've switched between keeping an actual notebook and just writing on blank paper on a clipboard, and I'd occasionally photogrpah my important notes, crop the photos, and insert them in my OneNote pages. The problem with this system was that taking photos, cropping, saving, uploading to my cloud, then importing them to OneNote was really time consuming, and on top of that I was ending up with either full notebooks or stacks of hand-written pages that I no longer need. The Rocketbook is an ideal compromise. Just the right size for meeting notes and other similar things, pages are easy to write on, and the app is great - just point the camera, click through a few things, and my notes are already in OneNote. The OCR is surprisingly good for basic text (especially considering how bad my handwriting is); only problem is it doesn't automatically format bullets, extended sentences, and similar. Pages clean up very easily; I even accidentally used a regular pen on one, but it didn't take long to clean it up with a bit of isopropyl. I don't regret buying it. I also bought the carrying case for it; I'll review that in another post.

Love this piece of technology. It actually ensures all my notes are saved on Clouds like iCloud and One Drive. It is extremely helpful in retaining notes that you may need at a later instance. Only the wiping part is a bit of a work, but hey, this is available at 3,000INR and an eink tablet like the Remarkable costs 40,000+ INR. What more could you ask for?

The Frixion pens are affordable and widely available for purchase. The app transcribed my challenging handwriting pretty well, impressive.

I've been using this for about a week now and am very happy with it. I moved away from using notepads/notebooks a long time ago just because I struggled to keep things organized. I tried a lot of different things and finally settled on an iPad, Apple Pencil and OneNote. The downside of that was carrying around 1.5 to 2.5 lbs (iPad with case) all the time and sometimes I just needed something simple to jot down post-it type notes or other quick notes that made using the iPad less than efficient. The Rocketbook has been great. Writing on it feels fine. I've got the app connected to OneNote, OneDrive and email depending on what the notes are for. I've been taking the notes by day and then uploading them to OneNote at the end of the day for regular stuff. For project specific things or if I'm looking to send notes out to a group I'll save it in OneDrive as a PDF and then send it out. The Frixion pens work fine and the pages clean off very easily. This is saving me some weight in my travel bag and have been much more convenient than using the iPad for all notes.

Se limpia fácilmente, la aplicación es muy fácil de usar, escanea muy bien y el cuaderno es ligero. Soy estudiante de universidad y me ayuda a conservar mejor mis apuntes. Los únicos problemas que he tenido es que las plumas son un poco caras en comparación con otras, además de que no las encuentro en cualquier papeleria, otro sería que se tiene que escribir lento y con cuidado para evitar manchar el trabajo, pero fuera de eso el producto es excelente y muy útil.
