…this was the answer to my note taking, storage and organization needs. But the hassle of maintaining the book may cancel the benefits. I was initially really excited to be able to revolutionize my note taking System. I take a lot of notes for a lot of different purposes in my life so the ability to compactly keep them in one place without giving up the tactile experience of writing as really attractive to me. And when I first received and unboxed this product I was really excited by it. But then my sentiments began to sour after the first few pages started ripping out (like with barely any pressure…then I realized this was happening basically from general handling of the book which I was only taking out of a back pack and leaving open on my desk. Then one day I decided to take the book with me on the go and a whole section about near fell out of the book as I was journaling with it in my lap. What in the world? Paper would not have torn so easily. They need to figure out the strength to weight ratio of whatever these pages are made of. My only advice until they do that…Just by the Frixion pen (only one comes with the notebook so You’ll have to me on the hook to buy those at 4 bucks a pop every so often depending on how much you write anyway) and then skip the note book and just have a scanning system using paper. Or buy a more durable notebook. The erasing isn’t dependent on the notebook anyway. It doesn’t even erase that cleanly anyway and it’s very easy to kink the pages. I’ve had mine for less than a month and it’s already looking ragged after only one full scan and reuse.

If you want the transcription to work, but have crappy handwriting, don't use this. I was hoping it would help with my notes at work, but it doesn't really translate my handwriting well. However, if you like having a PDF of your notes in your email or other cloud services, that works really easily. The cleaning is okay. I have found that swiping vertically works better than horizontally (doens't smear as much), but agian, I write a lot of notes, so there's a lot of ink. Takes me at least 2-3 passes to get the pages clean. I don't write that hard, but there is still an impression on the page and unless you use the page over and over again, you'll see it. I ran out of ink QUICK! again, I write a lot of notes, and while I purchased this for myself, my office is willing to purchase ink refills (they're not too expensive, bout the same as a regular pen, and you can use it on regular paper too!). Just make sure you double check that you order the right refills. Overall, if you're looking for something slim that will fit in your bag, is light weight, and you just want PDFs of your notes to cut back on paper, it's decent, otherwise not so great for the money.

The product is conceptually excellent. However the pen runs out of ink quickly and the scanning function, especially with the latest mobile app update is sketchy (pun intended) at best.

...Item was not what I anticipated- Returned it...purchased a remarkable 2...much higher end technology than the Rocketbook

I haven't used the notebook yet, but received mime without the microfiber cloth it says is included.

Useless . The app and the concept . Y waist my money
