Remarkable 1 was pretty similar to the 2 in that respect (most of the wins of the 2 are unrelated.)

I don't really agree with the previous poster. Drawing on a Remarkable really feels much better than alternatives (similar to a Wacom tablet, which imo is pretty unique), no matter which kind of screen protector you put on it.

I've only tried an Ipad Pro once, but it really wasn't close.

There's also the battery that's nice. I only need to charge this thing once in a blue moon (more often than a Kindle, but still). Because of WFH I haven't used it as much (I prefer typing my notes if I can be at my desk. I use my tablet on the go), and using it only a few minutes here and there the battery's at 60% after several months.

it feels like drawing on an ipad with a matte screen protector. depending on the screen protector they have slightly different feels. overall it doesn't feel like paper, it just has more friction than drawing on glass with a plastic pencil tip.
