Considering that the Remarkable Paper Pro has a color screen, is this device adequate for creating final pieces of art?

We find the use of the Remarkable Paper Pro to be inappropriate for finished artwork mostly because of the inferior color performance of the tool. The device’s focus is on creating sketches, capturing concepts, and working as an electronic sketchpad. Its color within the devices though it has a screen is of lower expression compared to other gadgets; thus the device is not best used for artwork needing bright and accurate colors.

I use a Boox Nova 3 Color for reading books, comics, and manga. The ability to just download kindle, hoopla, and libby, as well as reading PDF's and Epubs is great. It's an Android tablet, so you can just read from a web browser if you want to. The color models have an overlay that darken the screen in order to display color, so I keep the backlight on most of the time, but battery life is okay. The Remarkable seems to do color way better than the Boox though. I kind of regret buying a color model. I had hoped to read manwa and webtoons, but failed to take into account how annoying the constant vertical scrolling would be on a slow e-ink screen. Comics alone are not worth the extra price and a dimmer screen on an e-reader. I would stick to a greyscale model for the time being. I don't really draw or write on my Boox tablet, but the pen has something I have never used anywhere else.... You can flip it over and use the eraser end.... as an eraser. That alone is worth many points in it's favor.

Thanks for the pro review, you really make me to think twice before buy this thing ))) But as for me it would be very useful even without colors, I would like to have it for writing chinese and to make quick notes, sketches or something else you are doing on the paper when you just need to put your thoughts there.

Crazy expensive. Been waiting for your review. I think I'm gonna get it for the limited ability, and because I really just wanna sketch.

Can you really justify replacing paper for $750?
