8. Kindle Scribe – Best Big Screen
The Kindle Scribe is the first Kindle that can be used for taking notes, but the big screen is the big draw here. A 10.2-inch panel is much larger than most e-ink devices and offers a better reading experience than similarly sized devices on this list.
If you want to fit more text on a page or read comics and magazines, this is the Kindle for you.
However, Amazon presents the Scribe as a note-taking device. This is possible thanks to the included pen, which works very well for writing or diagramming.
Unfortunately, there are still some major issues on the software side. The Kindle software is already limited when it comes to reading, but the shortcomings are even more pronounced here. Amazon doesn’t allow writing directly on books (PDFs only), using clunky sticky notes only. The notebook section also needs work.
It’s a great Kindle for reading, but most people can get that from a device that’s significantly cheaper.
