For me, there is totally nothing that beats placing actual pen to actual paper. There’s additionally nothing that beats folding a paperback guide, smelling the pages—and for those who’re Group Jess from Gilmore Women, possibly additionally writing in the margins. However generally, and I say this as somebody who held out on utilizing an e-reader till it became my job, digital is useful.
It is good to convey a single light-weight gadget to the seaside or on the practice—no have to pack a number of completely different books or plan forward what you wish to learn. Extra e-readers are including the flexibility to jot down notes, too, which makes them much more alluring. I can take notes and set up them digitally with out having to tear out and waste paper. This second-generation Kobo Elipsa 2E does all of that with a big display screen and an included stylus. The draw back? It is pricier than a lot of the competitors.

Begin up the Elipsa 2E and you will be greeted with two forms of notebooks. There is a primary pocket book with 20 completely different background kinds—fitted to drawing, every day planners, and easy note-taking on a college-ruled web page. Then there are Superior notebooks that do not have a number of background kinds however can convert handwriting to textual content, with the flexibility to insert drawings, diagrams, and equations on one web page. These even have quick-edit capabilities like crossing out a phrase to routinely erase it. Each forms of notebooks are simple to make use of, and I like that you may seek for phrases or phrases to seek out content material shortly.
Kobo’s first-generation stylus was battery-powered, however the brand new mannequin is rechargeable, which is a pleasant improve. It sticks to the highest of the Elipsa magnetically, so that you need not fear about dropping it. The opposite finish of the stylus is a devoted eraser, which is one thing you need to pay additional for on the Elipsa’s nearest competitor, the Kindle Scribe.
