- reMarkable launches the Paper Pro Move, a compact 7-inch digital notebook with the same writing technology as the larger Paper Pro.
- Lightweight aluminum design, sharp E-Ink Gallery 3 display, and two-week battery life with quick-charge capability.
- Built for note-taking and organization with stylus tools, templates, and cloud syncing, but not ideal as a general e-reader.
For years, reMarkable has held a reputation for crafting digital notebooks that blur the line between pen and paper. Their flagship Paper Pro delivered on that promise with its large 12-inch display and tactile writing experience, but its size limited mobility. That gap is now filled by the Paper Pro Move, a smaller 7-inch device built to deliver the same experience in a form that slips easily into a bag or even a coat pocket.

• Compact 7-inch design for portability
• Built on the same technology as the Paper Pro
Unveiled on September 3, the Paper Pro Move enters the market at $449, undercutting its larger sibling by $130. Buyers can choose from different pen models and folio finishes, ranging from woven materials to premium leather. Positioned as both a cost-conscious entry point and a convenient second device for existing fans, the Move represents a broader attempt to bring digital handwriting to more users.
• Official launch price set at $449
• Accessories include advanced stylus and folio options
• $130 cheaper than the original Paper Pro
The Paper Pro Move mirrors the dimensions of an iPad Mini, weighing just over eight ounces and measuring a slim 0.26 inches thick. Its 7.3-inch Canvas Color screen runs on E-Ink Gallery 3 with a sharp 264ppi resolution. A built-in front light makes it functional in dim settings, while a two-week battery life ensures longevity. Even when drained, a quick 10-minute charge revives it with enough power for three days.
• Lightweight and slim aluminum design
• E-Ink Gallery 3 screen with 264ppi
• Long battery life with fast recharge option
The heart of the Move remains its writing capabilities. The stylus replicates multiple tools, from ballpoint pens to highlighters, and the upgraded version includes eraser support. Notes can be converted into typed text instantly, while the system allows resizing, undoing, or creating precise shapes. Templates for planners and lists come preloaded, and cloud integration ensures seamless storage and organization across devices.
• Stylus simulates nine writing tools
• Notes convert to typed text with one tap
• Templates and cloud syncing built in
Despite its strengths, the Move is not designed to replace an e-reader. It lacks support for Kindle and library apps and cannot display DRM-protected formats like MOBI or EPUB. For those seeking pure reading flexibility, alternatives like Kindle tablets or iPads remain better suited. The Paper Pro Move instead carves out its identity as a digital notebook first and foremost, offering an authentic writing experience in a compact body.
• Limited e-reader compatibility
• No Kindle or third-party app support
• Optimized for note-taking, not e-books
