![]() ![]() The Kindle Scribe Premium Pen is a very close second to the LAMY pen for me. If you’re in-store buying a LAMY Al-Star, you can try the Round Nib (POM) for Matte Surfaces but the best result in terms of “writing feel” is the Remarkable Marker tips in the LAMY.Ĭheck LAMY EMR Pen Price on Amazon Great Pick: Kindle Scribe Premium Pen (built-in Eraser/Magnetic) I haven’t found a way to buy the LAMY POM in the US, but you can import the LAMY Al-Star Pom tip version from Amazon UK. I have also tried the LAMY Al-Star with POM tips, as the LAMY POM tips are for paper-like surfaces, but it didn’t feel as good to me. I prefer the Remarkable Marker tips in the LAMY for what it’s worth. The LAMY is my preferred Remarkable pen set up in the office as it looks professional. If you use a LAMY Rollerball, you can even switch the barrel so you can have it any color you want. There’s a button on the LAMY stylus that, with a simple hack ( instructions here) makes the button work as an eraser, which is great for on-the-fly corrections. The LAMY is honestly the best Remarkable 2 writing experience I have found. What makes it luxurious is it feels like a pen as it’s made of metal, and the thickness gives it an authentic pen-like feel. There’s no eraser on the LAMY, but you can hack it, so it has eraser-like functions. Even at full price, it’s US$60 cheaper than the Remarkable Marker Plus and US$15 cheaper than the standard Remarkable Marker. The LAMY AL-Star Black retails for US$55 on Amazon. ![]() I originally wanted to call this a luxury pick, but it’s my ultimate choice. Ultimate Pick: LAMY AL-Star Black Stylus (Button Eraser) All of these pens will work with v2 and v3 of the Remarkable software and all the software features work e.g., you can use different pen types (pen, pencil, etc.) and pen widths (thin, medium, etc.). If you want to save money when purchasing a Remarkable 2, jump straight to the end.įYI. So it’s a win-win and will save you money. They are all 100% compatible with the Remarkable 2, not only in my tests but according to the people that make these pens. They are also much more affordable than the official Remarkable Marker the only limitation is not all of them come with the magnet. The following pens (markers) work with the Remarkable 2. If you have lost your Remarkable Pen, want a replacement Remarkable Marker, or want a budget Remarkable Marker alternative, I have tested and used them all. There’s a lot of magic to the Remarkable in everything from the eInk screen to the UI, but the Remarkable Pen, technically, the Remarkable Marker, is key. No notifications, no temptations of “I’ll just check this website” or “Reply to this email,” etc., and the writing experience is like paper. It may seem relatively costly, but as a distraction-free dedicated writing device, it’s impossible to beat. If it’s the latter, I recommend the Remarkable. ![]() I own a Remarkable 2 if you’re reading this, you either own one or are thinking of getting one.
