Supernote Nomad

[...] I write this in an epaper notebook (Supernote Nomad) that I take everywhere in the office. [...] I tend to leave it laying there while I look at the speakers and pay attention, rather than just checking Slack really quickly, and oh, better look at my email, etc. [...]

[...] I’ve been using it since 2020. [...] I use it for work and writing. This is the new Supernote Nomad A6X2. I got it at the end of December 2023.

I have a Supernote Nomad ( and am quite pleased with it given I can sideload Obsidian and other Android apps for those extra geeky things I want to do occasionally on it. But I have been looking at newer devices with color (and backlights), although I wouldn’t want to get stuck in Amazon’s ecosystem…

The Palma 2 doesn't have stylus support. I seriously considered the Supernote Nomad, the modular design is neat, but went with the Palma 2 for the backlight and the Boox software, which seems to be superior to Supernote for everything but writing and notes. If my primary use case were note-taking rather than reading, I would have gone with the Supernote Nomad.

[...] I have a Boox Note Air and generally like it a lot after the major software upgrade it got when Air 2 was released and also particularly running Android has been quite handy (for syncing journal articles with Zotero). But I am also very curious about Supernote Nomad and may go that way if I decide backlight doesn't matter. [...]

I have a Supernote Nomad and love the size of it, which is A6 sized. I struggle to see how making one more narrow than an A6 pad is useful. This Remarkable kind of looks more like a long post it note or grocery list instead of a notebook.

[...] I found the Supernote Nomad to be much better for writing. [...] Precision, no charging, and lots of pen options from different vendors for different purposes. [...]

The Kindle is still amazing value for money at any price - especially when compared to others with a smaller ecosystem. And being able to sideload DRM-free books I get on other stores (while I can) is just icing on the cake since I want to actually own my books and read them in future devices. That said, I am very happy with my Supernote Nomad as an e-reader as well (it is a note taking device, but runs the Kindle Android app) even if it is completely out of the price range the OP discusses.

[...] If I write by hand so that I can read myself later, my Supernote Nomad can transcript and export to text file. [...]

[...] I also use Feeder for Android on my Supernote Nomad. [...] I very much prefer to use a native app, and have no use for web-based RSS readers (I have created my own GPT-based AI summarizer that generates custom digests - I’ve also got a soft spot for NetNewsWire, but don’t really use it since the above works for me to skim the equivalent of 200+ feeds over breakfast (I’m posting this from inside Reeder on my iPad mini).

I got the supernote nomad (small one). [...] the software can be a bit jank sometimes (I sideloaded some extra stuff to it, idk if that's affecting things) but it feels really nice to draw on

I thought all this e-ink stuff was a bunch of Chinese gadget trash until I got a Supernote Nomad for taking notes, recording recipes and keeping thoughts on "paper". [...]

I got a supernote nomad heres my first doodle! Im still trying to figure this thing out i am not tech savvy and theres no buttons but its fun! I made these two up just right now

If you are in Germany (EU shipping is also an option), you can consider buying the Supernote Nomad A6x2, I bought back in September. I had to acknowledge that the device just isn't for me, but can perfectly suit someone else. www.ebay.de/itm/18768187...

If you are in Germany (EU shipping is also an option), you can consider buying the Supernote Nomad A6x2, I bought back in September. I had to acknowledge that the device just isn't for me, but can perfectly suit anyone else. At the price of EUR 350 for the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I have had the Supernote Nomad for three days now and I love it. I have digitized a lot of my note taking and it has really helped to consolidate my ADHD organizational messes. It also just feels nice to do work brainstorming on something without a backlight, feels much more like just writing […]

This won’t help with the number of devices, but the Supernote Nomad may be worth investigating as a dedicated digital notebook which could also serve as an e-reader (with access to Kindle for your current books to boot). I bought one in January and have been extremely happy with it.

I bought a supernote nomad used off of ebay. [...]

Since people are asking about e-ink devices: I own two Supernotes. I have tried multiple other e-ink devices (Remarkable, Boox, and some that no longer exist as companies) because handwriting on e-ink is my holy grail. I use this planner on my Supernote Nomad (A6 size).

For the last couple of months, I've been using the Supernote Nomad e-ink notebook. If you're someone who likes the idea of a digital notebook/sketchbook which is also a super lightweight word processor (& loads more), this will definitely be of interest to you. www.moorereppion.com/supernote-no...

I also have a kindle scribe, but I stopped using it a bunch when I got my supernote nomad. I do miss the pencil tool and backlight though. doodles art

Finally I got my Supernote Nomad and installed Obsidian. I used a Linux machine to install because it was not shown by adb devices command on my mac.
