Title: I’m Just Glad it Arrived
Review: I purchased the Amazon Kindle Scribe leather folio cover as part of a bundle. Almost a month after ordering and numerous date changes for arrival, I received the case. It looks like it was a return. The box was creased and torn where the opening tab was. That was a slight disappointment and a concern. I wonder if there was supposed to be something in the box that wasn’t there? With that said, the folio case holds the Kindle in place securely enough that, I don’t worry it will fall out with normal use. The case is very thin, very light, and looks very sleek. I don’t like the big Kindle embossed on the front of the folio case, I’d rather that be on the back of the case somewhere preferably in small letters. I guess I overlooked that when I made my selection. I do like the angles the case provide for writing and reading. After two and a half, almost three weeks with no protection for the device, I decided I’m happy it arrived and I have something protect my investment. How well its going to hold up over time I cannot say. I see that the leather scratches easily, I inadvertently brushed my fingernail (I have natural short nails) across the cover reaching for the stylus and I see it made a scratch mark, I was able to rub it out a little but I can still see where my fingernail brushed across it. I guess I can say it has a weathered look now.Update September 26, 2024After using my Kindle Scribe off and on over the past 7 months, I can say, “I’m happy with my purchase.” I have a device that meets my needs for reading and taking handwritten notes. No, I can’t write the note in the margins of the books I read but I can get my thoughts down before I forget them. I like how the written notes can be seen on all my devices with the Kindle app. If I edit a note on one device it’s edited on all. I’m better at using the Kindle Scribe now even so, some problems I mentioned in my initial review still remain, like system crashes when I use the lasso tool and the inability to copy and paste text from the e-book to notes. Scribe makes it easy to collect written notes and distill them into a concise summary document. I don’t type with the Scribe. In fact, if I need to type a note, I’d use the Kindle app on my iPhone. I have not explored whether or not the Scribe would work with a Bluetooth keyboard and I wouldn’t want that anyway because it would take away from the simplicity of what the Scribe is – a reader that allows you to take notes.I still give this e-reader high marks and recommend it highly for e-reading and note taking. Other pluses include, the notebook is great for those who like to write rather than type their thoughts. Handwritten notes can be changed to text even if the process is somewhat clunky. You can listen to and read book at the same time, something I like to do when I have trouble focusing. Overall, the Scribe is not a one tool that can do everything you might want a e-reader/e-notebook to do but what it does do, I think it does well.

Title: You still use a legal pad? How quaint!
Review: Got my Kindle Scribe twenty-four hours ago. Put it to work on my first project. I would be using my Onyx Boox, another paperwhite device. That device has a lot going for it but the programming is not intuitive. You have to learn it. Once learned, the device itself requires a long boot up and quite a bit of fooling around to get to where I can use it. But for all its bad stuff the Onyx does not have the cons below.Pros:1. Instant on. YAHOO. Work now!2. Great paperwhite response.3. Excellent pen.4. I can read books on it.5. MUCH better for reading PDFs.6. Transferring my notes is SUPER easy. On the Boox it was a PITA using second hand apps.Cons:1. Lasso – a HUGE conOn the Boox I could be working on a notebook page, use the pen to lasso, or draw a circle around, a part of the page and then move that part around. That is HUGE. That allows this to be more than a piece of paper. If I can’t move things around on the page, this might be a deal-breaking problem. Kindle is promising cut and paste. HURRY UP.2. PDFsYes, way easier to read and annotate. Fantastic work. Don’t stop. Keep working. Whoever comes up with a way to make PDFs behave like MOBI files will win the day.3. BatteryStop playing games with battery life claims. If I turn the LEDs off it will last years. I’m old. That light is going to be darn near or on 100% Kindles battery life claims are really questionable and based on tiny part of the population using it. So far the battery looks great but it ain’t gonna last twelve weeks. That’s just silly. Kindle: Don’t be silly.4. PagingThere are still amazing discoveries to be made on how pages work in a notebook, aren’t there? It just isn’t right yet. I have six pages on this first project and like the Boox, the Scribe programming still hasn’t developed a good way to handle pages. Maybe one big, long, ever expanding page.I suppose I could go too far and suggest that my February trip to Punta Cana will be affected by the lack of waterproofing. I won’t be able to work in the pool.Based on the belief that Kindle will add the cut and paste my initial reaction is HECK YEAH! I needed this. It runs well past the performance of the Boox out of the box.You still use a legal pad? How quaint.

Title: Weight, foldability and overall functionality are excellent for everyday use
Review: So far so good.Initially I purchased a 3rd party option and it added a fair amount of weight to the Scribe. Was going to stay with it but the magnets were interfering when writing so I bought this beautiful case designed by Amazon specifically for the Kindle Scribe.I have tested writing with the case installed in all different positions and it seems to work great. The fit is perfect! It is easy to remove but feels like it is firmly in there and does not fall out easily. When I fold it into the various stand positions it seems to hold well (more sturdy than that 3rd party one) and the front and back of the device are fully covered. Sleep/wake function works perfectly.All that said I would not take my Kindle Scribe to the beach with this case without additional protection but the weight, foldability and overall functionality are excellent for everyday use.If I run into any issues I will report back but so far this case is pretty great.

Review: die tut, was sie soll. Die Magnetfunktion als Halterung für den Scribe oder nach hinten geklappt als Ständer funktioniert super.Die Farbe (Bordeaux) sieht sehr edel aus und gefällt mir. Die Hülle fühlt sich vom Material her gut an und scheint super verarbeitet.Bin sehr zufrieden damit.

Review: Ho comprato da un mese il Kindle Scribe, che con gli aggiornamenti dell’ultimo anno è migliorato di molto, mancano alcune caratteristiche essenziali ma anche così si può sfruttare bene.Per il Kindle avevo comprato una cover alternativa, dove lo Scribe si inseriva e si incastrava con apertura a libro. La cover era conveniente e tendenzialmente comoda, ma l’impossibilità di estrarre facilmente il Kindle e il peso mi hanno orientato alla restituzione.Dopo aver letto un po’ di recensioni e avendo visto qualche video mi sono orientato su questa in pelle e devo dire che ne sono soddisfatto nonostante il prezzo elevato. Ho scartato quella in tessuto per due motivi, primo perché dalle recensioni sembra si rovini facilmente, secondo per i tempi di spedizione.Questa devo dire che da una sensazione di solidità e i materiali sono buoni, mi piace al tatto e si presenta elegante. Si tiene in mano abbastanza facilmente, anche se i bordi sono leggermente fastidiosi perché molto fini, e la possibilità di staccare facilmente lo Scribe è unica.I magneti fanno il loro dovere e anche tenendolo verticalmente (come si può vedere in una delle foto) non si stacca facilmente. Certo un po’ si fa attenzione perché si ha sempre un po’ di apprensione visto il valore del Kindle, ma onestamente non penso si staccherà salvo non andando in giro facendolo dondolare con forza. Quando si apre non l’ho mai visto muoversi di un millimetro.La possibilità di metterlo disteso e rialzato con il suo stand funziona bene ed è stabile, anche andando ad appoggiarci la mano per scriverci sopra non lo fa collassare; utile anche la posizione verticale per la lettura.Naturalmente ha l’avvio e lo spegnimento automatico all’apertura e chiusura della cover grazie ai magneti, e non si apre da solo buttandolo nello zaino o spostandolo in giro. Comoda la linguetta della penna, che altrimenti non sarebbe super stabile per il trasporto, lasciandola attaccata lateralmente… cosa che si può comunque fare senza problemi.Unica difficoltà, se proprio si vuole trovare qualcosa, una volta ripiegata dietro la parte davanti, si aggancia saldamente con i magneti sul retro, è un po’ complicato staccarla per la chiusura. Al momento il metodo più veloce è usare la linguetta della penna per fare forza verso il basso per staccarla.Ultimo accenno sul prezzo, effettivamente troppo elevato, però molto spesso c’è il 25% di sconto sugli accessori Kindle, e infatti la cover l’ho presa con quello sconto… è rimasta cara comunque, ma almeno accettabile. Vi consiglio di cercare lo sconto accessori.In conclusione per come lo uso io è indispensabile nonostante il costo, forse per altri potrebbe non essere così, valutate bene prima di prenderla in base a come userete il vostro Kindle Scribe.Allego un po’ di foto in modo che possano essere utili per una migliore valutazione.

Review: Bueno, poco que decir, es una funda de piel, se adhiere al kindle vía imanes, y queda bastante resistente, vamos he leído comentarios de que los imanes no agarran bien, y no sé, queda bastante bien fijado, es difícil que el kindle se caiga si no haces algo de fuerza o le das un golpe.Incluye un pequeño añadido para colocar el lápiz y queda bastante bien sujeto. Incluso diría que demasiado sujeto, ya que hay que estirar con fuerza para sacarlo y meterlo, supongo que con el tiempo se irá ensanchando un poco e irá má suave.Como punto negativo, diría que es el precio, es cara, bastante cara, pero tras probar varias fundas no oficiales con mi anterior kindle, y terminar al final comprando la funda de piel oficial que me ha durado años y años… pues ya me compré para el scribe directamente la oficial. Al final es algo que va a durar muchos años y es como una inversión en algo de mejor calidad.En definitiva, es la mejor funda para el kindle scribe, es cara, pero es una funda hecha para durar mucho.

Review: I was concerned that the magnetic case would not hold and the Kindle would fall out. That is not the case, you really have to jerk and shake it. I like how thin it looks and works great.
