The writing experience on Kindle Scribe is pretty good as well. I only use it for quick marginal notes and underlines. Sometimes drawing diagrams.

But I used it mostly for reading.

Thanks for sharing, appreciate it.

Would you say it is convenient to use it for writing, say, 500 words at a go?

If you’re good at hand writing, there is no difference between it and a real paper notebook. There are also many notebook templates.
