6.5&6in Digital Notepad

I purchased the 14.3 inch foldable board. I have to admit that I really like the device. I was concerned about some of the other reviews on here. I know they are for different devices but let me address some of the concerns that others have brought up. 1) Visibility of the Lines - Some users say that the lines are too light. I tried this tablet in a room with limited natural light and none of the lights turned on - I could see the lines just fine. I noticed that the lines on this writing tablet are a bit thinner than the Boogie Board that I have on my fridge and the visibility between the two is noticeably different. But after using this writing tablet for a bit, I think I prefer the slightly thinner lines because it allows me to be more detailed in what I write and draw as well as capture more information on the same amount of space. The Boogie Board is for capturing quick notes so the lines can be thicker, but the thinner lines are actually better for planning and note taking. YMMV. 2) Stylus Holder retainability - the stylus holder on the side fits the stylus well. The stylus won't just accidentally slide off easily. In fact, the grip is very good. I accidentally launched a stylus across the room trying to get it off. It's a good thing my dogs weren't around or I'd have to fight them for it. However, the stylus removal and replacement isn't too hard or too easy - it's just right. It's a nice feature. 3) Erasure Function - I initially wanted a button for the erase function, but I've discovered that touching the back of the pen to the erase area works just fine. In fact, I think I prefer how the device does it instead of a button. Moving parts fail so this eliminates a potential failure point from the devices. It erases clean every time. 4) Size - I'm glad I got the 14.3" foldable. There's a large writing area when it's unfolded. However, it's not much bigger than a large Moleskine notebook when it's folded, making this easily portable. I got this to be a portable tablet to capture thoughts on the go so the folded size is important to me. So far, I really like this device. I've already put it to good use taking notes. I take this with me when I'm out and about, and I take pictures of my board if I run out of space and need to erase the board. If I lose or break this then it won't hurt quite as bad as if I had damaged or lost a more expensive computing device (laptop or tablet). I'll provide updates to this review over time to give my impression of the durability of the device. So far, it's a great little device at an extremely reasonable price. I'm happy with this purchase.

Works as advertised, perfect size for me to put in my apron and quick jot notes. And buttons are placed so they aren't accidently pressed. The lock on the bottom and the delete on the back. pen magnetically sticks to the tablet, not to strong of a magnet but this was a good price and functions as needed! Fun to doodle too!

This thing is awesome. I’m 34 and bought this for myself. I love the size and weight. Fits easily in my backpack and it feels like it’s a well built product. Erasing is super easy and oddly satisfying. I use it to plan my day and practice drawing. My only complaints: I wish it had a selective erase ability. Like if the magnet on the back of the stylus could erase what it touched or areas of having to erase the whole screen at once (one of two screens). It was a good purchase and worth the money. Just a heads up, I thought each screen was going to be 14.3 inches and I was mistaken. When folded closed it’s about the size of a small tablet

The form factor of the pad and stylus work well. The writing experience is smooth. I appreciate the magnetic coupling of the stylus to the pad. That being said, there a two function that I am not impressed by. 1) The text clearing/erasing button being on the back of the device can is annoying. 2) The display brightness and contrast is not representative of the item presentation in the listing images. The only way I can achieve the same level of text presentation is when I held a led flashlight in one hand and wrote with the stylus in the other. When writing with the pad directly under a lamp, the display is still faded as compared to the listing photos. It isn’t terrible, but it is misleading to present otherwise in the listing.

This is my favorite brand of LCD tablets—the stylus have a finer point and weight than most others and the screen lays down a clear, sharp line. Having two of these good stylus is a solid bonus and that they securely hook into the top of the tablet is well thought out. I currently use it for task tracking, alternating from one side to the other when I have crossed off enough tasks that I want to start with a fresh list on the second side with the remaining original tasks. I like the portable size and, folded, I use it as a writing surface on my lap. Being able to fold the tablet assures me that my work won’t be messed up as I toss it around my desk and in my bags. I haven’t even mentioned the unique and efficient erasing mechanism. I feel like this company listened to every issue I have with all other LCD tablets and made this one just for me.

*** UPDATE *** I purchased a new CR2016 cell and the problem remains. The tablet has ceased to erase writing (Yes, I checked to be certain the "do not erase" switch is set to allow erasing) Changing previous 3-star rating to 1 star because it died without any sort of over- or mis-use. Gone too soon.... **** The tablet works for quickly jotting down things. I have it on the side of my fridge (built-in magnets work great for me if I hang it upside down! Orientation makes no difference in taking notes. Stylus' magnet works to keep IT stuck to the fridge, too.). Mostly it gets shopping list stuff, then cleared after I've copied to my phone. Useful for quick recipe notes, and for leaving funny messages for the family to find. Had it about 10 months, probably used it four times a month on average. The CLEAR button only dims the writing now, not clears completely. Swapped in the handy-dandy replacement battery that came with the tablet - no change in behavior. Either the spare died on the shelf while waiting to be called upon, or the tablet has gone bad. I'll invest in a new CR2016 to isolate the trouble. Hoping it is simply inferior original batteries. You (meaning I) need fairly bright ambient light to be able to see the writing. Not an issue in my kitchen during daytime, but have to crank up the lumens a bit after sunset. I think it is a fair value, but still feel unloving toward the likely cheap-o batteries they supplied.

This has come in handy as my son loves it when doing his work. He can work out his work and then erase it all once he is done and not have to worry about scratch paper. Easy and fun use not too large to have to carry if needed to just doodle on when needed. Easey to write on and the writing is clear, bold and not Boken up that you cannot read or make out what you jotted down.

This works as intended, but the writing is so dim that it's barely visible. This is in a lit room, with a lamp a foot away and a bright window right next to me. Too dim in my opinion.
