Color E Ink tablets aren’t usually affordable. I’m not going to say that Woot’s price on a refurbished “good as new” Remarkable Paper Pro is cheap, but it’s pretty fantastic compared to buying one new. Normally $629 just for the tablet, you can get a bundle that includes the big 11.8-inch Paper Pro plus $139 worth of brand new accessories (a Mosaic Weave Book Folio and a Marker Plus) for $509 if you buy it used. The bundle comes with a 90-day warranty, which pales in comparison so Remarkable’s own one-year warranty on refurbished devices. Then again, the same refurbished bundle on the company’s site is $649.
It’s nice to have a color E Ink so close in price to Remarkable’s newer Paper Pure, a 10.3-inch black and white E Ink tablet for note-taking. While many of their features overlap, you may prefer not just the color capabilities of the Paper Pro, but also its front light. The Paper Pure doesn’t have a light at all. One thing to keep in mind about the Pro’s color-capable screen is that it uses Gallery display tech, which has a slow refresh rate because it renders colors instead of using filters like Kaleido displays.
