Best paper writing experience I've ever seen

I've had the RP1 for about 2 weeks now and I have to admit that I'm quite a believer in this device if you want a paper like writing (and reading) experience.
Compared with an iPad Pro 10.5
The RP1 is superior for reading documents (Word docs need to be converted to PDF) and marking them up is almost identical to marking up a paper document with a pen. Reading long legal documents (which my job requires) is like reading them from a printer copy and since this device is so large, it is easy for me to scan through the different sections. Also this device is surprisingly thin and SUPER light. I have no idea how Sony can make such a light device, it feels almost like an empty "demo" product you see at mobile phone kiosks (empty plastic with no electronics inside). It's simply that light.

The iPad has lower latency and Apple Pencil is amazing with the tilt function and pressure sensitivity. Also the support for colors makes the iPad a great device for artists. Also the device can actually edit Word documents directly which makes it more of a productivity tool.
For me, I think there is room for both the RP1 and iPad in my brief bag. The RP1 is my go to for note taking and document review. If I want to edit documents and do internet browsing, I'll whip out my iPad.

Hi, jason13, We are sorry for what happened here. To make sure the pen is charging, kindly use the supplied USB cable and connect it to a computer. The charge indicator turns off when the stylus is fully charged. You may visit this link for more details: http://helpguide.sony.net/dpt/rp1/v1/en/contents/TP0001178311.html. We will make sure your feedback will be forwarded to the proper department. Thank you. Regards, Vincent

The best e-reader I have ever used
on January 15, 2018

Gender:Male
I bought it about five months ago. It is very slim, light, easy to read. The application whereby files are transferred from PC to the Sony paperless is useful and easy to use. The only negative feature is the lack of table of contents, as already remarked by other users.
I would recommend this to a friend!

At first, this device was great. over the years, the company stop software supports with apple's products which has been a total disappointment for me since most of my products come from apple.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought it a few months ago to replace my paper notes.
I use it every day in my office...
It had not disappointed me so far, except the short battery life . I have to keep connected to power all the time.
