After exploring the largest market for productivity tablets that feature color displays with Paper Pro and the smaller Paper Pro MoveTablet maker E Ink reMarkable is going back to its roots with a new monochrome device called Paper Pure.
The new $399 Paper Pure succeeds the monochrome reMarkable 2 after six years and comes with more powerful hardware as well as modern software features that make it competitive in today’s tablet market.
The Paper Pure has a 10.3-inch screen when measured diagonally, the same as the reMarkable 2, but the new one is wider, which the company says makes it easier to take notes and read text. Notably, the resolution hasn’t changed between the two tablets, staying at 1872 x 1404 pixels with a pixel density of 226 PPI.
The tablet also comes with 32GB of storage, four times what you got on its predecessor, and it’s also around 40g lighter, weighing in at 360g.
ReMarkable said the Paper Pure is 50% more responsive than the reMarkable 2 and offers 30% longer battery life with its 3,820mAh battery.
The company has added a number of new features to the tablet to bring it on par with modern productivity tools, including support for a web app. Paper Pure allows you to sync your calendar as well as take and share notes for a specific meeting. And if you import documents from cloud storage services, the online synchronization service will automatically turn them into a notebook suitable for reading and commenting on the tablet itself. The company said it also comes with better handwriting search capabilities.
Paper Pure also integrates with Slack so you can turn handwritten notes into typed text that you can share. It also integrates with the collaboration tool Miro, allowing you to share sketches and the like.

The Norwegian company said it now plans to stop production of the reMarkable 2, but will still offer software updates and support to existing customers.
The base model of the Paper Pure comes with a stylus, and the more expensive $449 version gets you a fancier stylus, called the Marker Plus, which includes an eraser function, as well as a sleeve sheet in various colors. Users can order the device starting today and shipping is expected to begin in early June.
The company said it has sold more than 3.5 million devices so far and has 1.2 million subscribers to its Connect service, which offers unlimited cloud storage, exclusive templates and the ability to create links to share notes or sketches.
