Cliquez ici pour lire en français

If you thought the best digital note-taking experience required a big screen, reMarkable just rewrote the playbook. The company’s newest device, the Paper Pro Move, is a smaller, more colorful spin on the well-loved Paper Pro. Compact, portable, and built for mobility, it promises to put a powerful slice of digital paper right in your pocket. Let’s take a closer look at a tablet that could quickly become indispensable for life on the move.

A design that works: small but sturdy 💼

The Paper Pro Move packs a 7.3-inch color E Ink Gallery 3 display into a body clearly designed for people in motion. Its tall 9:16 aspect ratio feels like holding a reporter’s notebook—ideal for one-hand scribbling.

The chassis blends recycled aluminum framing with a textured plastic back, striking a balance between lightness and grip. Nice touch: rubber pads on the underside keep it steady on any surface. At 6.5 mm thick, it’s a little chunkier than the larger Paper Pro, but that added bulk translates into durability. This thing feels ready to survive the daily grind.

Performance and battery: compact but capable ⚡

Under the hood, the Paper Pro Move runs on a dual-core chip faster than its bigger sibling’s, giving it a welcome boost in responsiveness. Still, there’s a slight lag between pen strokes and screen—noticeable if you’re flipping pages fast, but forgivable since writing itself feels smooth, natural, and oddly satisfying.

Battery life remains a highlight: expect around 10 days on a single charge. That’s more than enough to handle a full workweek (or two) without hunting for an outlet.

Who it’s for 🎯

This notebook is clearly aimed at mobile professionals, students, and creatives who want a simple, elegant tool always within reach. Its small footprint makes it perfect for brainstorming sessions, quick meeting notes, or sketching on the go.

That said, if your workflow leans heavily on PDFs, landscape layouts, or complex documents, you may find the limited screen size and slight latency more of a hindrance.

How it stacks up ⚔️

What sets the Paper Pro Move apart is its exceptional handwriting feel combined with a color e-ink display in such a compact form. In a market where rivals like the larger Amazon Kindle Scribe or other e-ink tablets dominate, reMarkable is carving a niche for people who want minimalism plus portability.

At €479, it’s pricier than some more versatile tablets, but reMarkable isn’t trying to be everything—it’s doubling down on being the best digital notebook you can carry everywhere.

Price and availability 💸

The Paper Pro Move starts at €479 with the standard Marker included. The upgraded Marker Plus, with an integrated eraser, is sold separately, alongside premium folios and accessories for protection and style. It’s available now through reMarkable’s official site.

Small size, big potential💡

The Paper Pro Move delivers a colorful, lightweight, and highly portable digital notebook without falling into the usual pitfalls of downsized devices. It’s not perfect—but as a “take-anywhere” writing companion, it makes a strong case for itself.

In a world increasingly geared toward maximum mobility, reMarkable proves there’s still something magical about pairing a great pen with a piece of digital paper.
