The reMarkable 2 still isn't a laptop, but the Type Folio case makes it an even better note-taking and writing tool.
Andrew Liszewski | Gizmodo The new Type Folio case makes a stronger argument for not letting your reMarkable 2 run around naked, with the addition of a svelte laptop-style keyboard with full-size keys offering 1.
3-millimeters of travel. I’ve tried a handful of different keyboard cases for various devices over the past few years, and while many offer a compromised typing experience in an effort to remain thin, the Type Folio does that while also feeling as good to type on as the keys on my MacBook Pro.An iPad Pro with a closed keyboard case attached compared to the reMarkable 2 in the Type Folio case .The accessory does add a bit of extra weight to the 404-gram reMarkable 2, but only a few millimeters of added thickness when it’s all closed up.Connectivity is all handled through magnets, which easily keep the e-note securely attached to the case, and when the Type Folio is connected and the keyboard deployed—I’ll explain more later—the reMarkable 2 automatically switches to landscape mode. The Type Folio case uses a compact, squished keyboard layout that my large hands found a little cramped, but it was still very useable, and a big improvement over the reMarkable 2's on-screen keyboard.I do have a few complaints with the Type Folio. For starters, it features a squished compact layout, so while the individual keys might be full size, they may not be located exactly where touch typists expect to find them. As someone with gigantic paws, I find the Type Folio’s layout to be a little cramped, but it’s still very useable, and it’sthe reMarkable’s stylus. Without a doubt, it’s alsoThe text formatting options on the reMarkable 2 are currently very limited given it’s still designed to be a basic note-taking tool.My biggest complaint with the Type Folio keyboard case is the reMarkable 2 itself. Over two years after its debut, the lack of any screen lighting is becomingoffer glowing screens that are visible no matter where and when you’re using them. But it’s the software that limits the potential of the new keyboard accessory. Text formatting on the reMarkable 2 is currently very basic, offering just three size options and the ability to switch to a bullet point list. reMarkable doesn’t market the device as a word processor—it’s for taking notes first and foremost—but the potential is there for it to become an even more useful tool. In its current form, the reMarkable 2 paired with the new Type Folio is still a very useable distraction-free writing tool devoid of a web browser or social media access. It’s reminiscent of purpose-built writing tools like the, but as with that device, you’ll have to switch to a laptop or PC with more capable software for extensive edits or formatting changes. I do expect reMarkable to improve and expand the formatting options for typed text in future updates, but for now it’s very basic.Without a doubt, my favorite feature of the Type Folio case is a design that makes the keyboard completely disappear when you’re not using it.Unlike most keyboard cases for tablet devices, the keyboard on the Type Folio case disappears beneath the reMarkable 2 when not needed.
