Another comparison post from a lazy eye mortal.

I recently bought the colorsoft (signature) and paperwhite.

Picture one- 0% light on in a well lit room.
Picture two- 5% light on in a well lit room.
Picture three- 14% light on in a well lit room.
Picture four- 0% light on under a lamp.
Picture five and six- near a window at different times. The sun wasn’t very strong today.
Picture seven- just a picture of the one I kept.
The darker one is the colorsoft.

I bought the colorsoft first knowing how einks work. I knew the color would be darker. However, after a few days, I felt dizzy and got a headache after reading.

I bought the paperwhite and the problem went away. I wanted to love the colorsoft and I didn’t mind bumping the light up on it but I think the text is a little blurry and my eyes hurt!! I love the color but I can’t keep it. So now, I’ll be reading comics on my iPad and the paperwhite will be for text. I was also lucky to get a paperwhite with ads that doesn’t show ads!?! Pink isn’t my favorite color but this color is so pretty.

Just wanted to throw in my two cents to the comparison. I have a squint and I wear spectacles. But my vision is a 10 on 10. Just wanted to document my experience as someone with a lazy eye.

PS- ignore my couch. I know it’s dirty. We’re moving so I’m waiting to clean it once we settle down.

Feel free to ask me any questions.

Young and Blind but not blind?

My husband just saw my font size and made fun of me for being a grandma. Lol. My font size is 7 and I keep it a little bold so that when it’s mounted up, I can read it from far. I like to eat and read and even when I’m holding it, it’s the same font. I read physical books too. I have no eye problems but it’s just so nice to have a big font. lol. Are you the same? What’s your font size?

From the 12 to the 17!

I got the 12 when it came out because the color was so beautiful. Bought that one from my own money when I was a student. This is my second one from my own grown up money. iPhones are so good that I truly never felt the need to upgrade but my 12 was dying. lol.

Temptations are injurious to the human pocket.

So…….. I wanted to wait for a sale but guess what? It was too much waiting. So I bought a colorsoft. Coming from a basic 10th gen and I love that this has a warm light! Not a case person so I put a skin on it.

Privacy

Hi everyone! I’m looking to buy an eink specifically for note taking. I’m a professor and I need some level of privacy. I do not understand much of the “techiness” but I’m not tech handicapped. I was wondering if someone can educate me on how much privacy Supernote offers and if it is safe to store sensitive info on it? Thank you!

Digital notes— worth it?

Hi everyone. I’m a PhD student who studies literature. My work flow involves a laptop and also my iPad which I sometimes use as an extended screen for my MacBook. I’ve been thinking of getting an eink device as a note taker. I think all my papers and stuff are best read on an iPad since it’s easy to annotate and send documents but sometimes I wish I had a device only for notes that I could pick and write on. I have a bunch of notebooks that are just lying around and I don’t even know which one has what.

I also take notes on my iPad while reading on the side. I make docs for my students too on it which is so convenient. I don’t know if going digital with my notes is a good idea. For some reason I fear I’ll lose them all.

I have tried the RMPP. My brother owns it. It’s huge and if I wanted to read only docs, I think I’d choose that one. A friend of mine gave me the Supernote to keep for a week. I liked it. Wasn’t a fan of the writing but the small form was pretty good. I think my biggest fear is privacy and having all my notes wiped out one day for no reason. lol. I know I’m being paranoid but I was wondering which one is better for me? I just want something for notes and nothing more and I know these two companies are good. I think the remarkable came out with the new one recently so I’ll pick that. If there’s anything else I’m not aware of, please educate me. Thank you, in advance.

Losing hope

Hello Everyone.

Before I begin with my question, I want to give a little background with my manifestation experience. So far, the biggest thing I manifested is getting into a university for higher education and becoming independent.

I’ve realized that on the go, I’ve manifested small things like getting a free coffee or an exam being postponed. I’ve read about Neville Godard and I’ve also listened to subliminals. I’ve tried the 369 method too. However, what I’m manifesting right now is the hardest of all and I’m slowly starting to question things.

Coming to the present: My relationship has been the most difficult for me. I’ve changed my bf’s behavior so much where it’s gone from wanting space every now and then to him telling me that he’s absolutely in love with me. However, I’ve been waiting for an engagement. We’ve spoken about it. I’ve spoken about my deadline too which is this year. I’ve been clear and we’ve had future conversations too. The problem is that it hasn’t happened yet. I had my summer break and him and I spent a whole month together (we’re in a long distance) and I was manifesting a proposal during this time but it never happened. I’m wondering how can this work? What am I doing wrong? I want it to be asap because my parents keep asking me and it’s a lot of pressure. I also have to plan things since my parents are far and wedding preparations will take time. I’ve detached from the outcome. Like I’m not obsessing over it. I’m not obsessing over the relationship either. I know if it doesn’t happen then it doesn’t because then the universe has something better for me. But I also know that it’ll happen. For some reason, I know he will propose within my deadline. Anyway, any pointers or advice is welcomed. Thank you!

Joined the Cool Club today!

Got my second hand, 512 gb Neo today. The color is so fun! I love it. It’s still under warranty. Snagged this for $575 so pretty reasonable. As someone who’s used the Air and still has one, I think this is excellent. The specs are different on paper but for my work, I feel absolutely no difference!

The Neo is a little heavier than the air but the size is so so so perfect! The keyboard is amazing. I tried typing in a dark area and the light from the screen was actually enough. I was a little hesitant about the color because I’m someone who opts for neutrals but I’m trying to be more fun with my tech plus the seller gave me a good deal so I couldn’t ignore. However, the color is amazing! It leans green inside the room but in the sun it’s changes color and that is SO COOL!!! The keyboard isn’t white but has a greenish, yellowish hue which is so beautiful. Can you tell I’m in love? lol.

My use cares is researching and writing papers. I am going to start with very basic coding very soon. I don’t watch movies and stuff on this coz I have my iPad for that which is a pro 13 inch. I do plan on using them together. Still testing out the battery but I’ve been at this device since 7 am and it’s only dropped 50%! I’ve been using it constantly for zoom calls and stuff. The camera is good enough to tell people it’s me. lol.

If you’re on edge about this laptop or the color, I’d say just get it. You’ll LOVE it! Thinking of divorcing my husband and marrying this one. lol. Just kidding.

I can’t wait!

Y’all, I just got a Neo, 512 gb for $570 in citrus and I can’t wait! It’s my first MacBook from my own adult money!! Had to get a second hand coz the cost went up and I needed higher storage for work. Paying almost $700 with tax felt a little uneasy. Just wanted to share coz I don’t have anyone to share this with. It gets here this Monday and I’m so so so excited! 😭

Nano textured glass

Has anyone ever bought the nano textured glass with iPads? Do you like it? I’ve been thinking about it to reduce reflections since I like to sit near windows and work. But I’m not sure if it’s worth the money. Would love to hear experiences.

Are you sick yet?

For those who got a new MacBook Neo months ago or have had it for a month now, especially the Citrus color, do you regret the color? Do you wish you got another color? What do you do to hide it? What do you do to enhance it?

Also, for those who have been using a Neo, has it slowed down for you?

Another “What to do?” post!

Hi everyone!
I need help and advice and everything nice! To introduce myself: I am a PhD student currently who is studying literature. I’m in my 4th year and next year, I start writing my dissertation. As of now, we have a laptop from our university which is a MacBook Air. However, I want one of my own to write my paper on and I want to learn the basics of coding— HTML, CSS and Java. After I learn that, I do plan on exploring the world of coding just a little more.

Anyway, for now, my main work will be learning the basics on the side and browsing research paper, reading, watching YouTube educational videos and of course, writing. I use my iPad (I have the iPad Pro m5 in 13 inch) to annotate student’s papers, to read and watch and all that good stuff. I’m going to use my iPad as the second screen with my laptop which I have not been able to do yet since the work laptop is locked to another email.

After doing a lot of research and watching of reviews, I have settled on the Neo primarily because of the budget. It seems good for my basic work but I am not sure about coding.

What do the experts think? Any other pointers for me? Thank you, in advance.

Show me the Neos!

Wanted to request everyone to post a picture of their neos that represents the most accurate color in person. I’m trying to decide on a color. Been a neutral color person all my life but it’s time to add some fun so I’m avoiding the silver. Thank you! 🫶🏽

The Basic is G.O.A.T!

Just wanted to share my kickstand popsocket and comic book reading on my kindle. Ignore my laptop. I just removed stickers and have to clean it.

Calling the girls!

Guys can give their opinion too. lol. I’ve been going back and forth between the blush and the silver color. A little about me— I’m not a crazy pink fan but I’ve seen the blush and it looks so cute. Most of my devices have been in black or silver. My previous laptop has been silver too. This year, I’ve been adding colors because why not? I got the base iPhone 17 in blue and I love it coz that’s my favorite color.

What do people advices? Those who have seen it in person, is the blush too pink? Those who have the silver, do you regret it? Thank you!

Almost PhD Scholar looking for a laptop.

Hi everyone! I hope y’all are doing excellently. I am a PhD student and currently have a MacBook Air M3 from my university. I’m going to be losing this soon so I am looking for a personal laptop and would appreciate any insight y’all might have. I also want to think about a future where I might work in a publishing firm.

As of now, I’m looking at the new MacBook neo and the Air. The pros are not for me because I don’t edit that much. How does the MacBook neo performs for everyone? I’m looking at the 512 gb because I have a lot of files. Im soon going into my dissertation phase so I want to write on my own laptop. I do have a billion tabs open and constantly use word. Canva is important for me as well. Would air be a better choice for me? I have an iPad Pro that I generally use for my notes and marking PDFs. My iPad is my main device but I want to use my iPad as a second screen which I have not been able to do since my work laptop is locked to the ID.

Thank you for your time and insight.

Deceived

Got sold a locked iPhone from eBay. The phone is locked and I’ve tried the general passwords. The seller had good pictures so I’m assuming they got it from someone and passed it on? Not sure. It’s been days and they haven’t replied to my text. The person has no returns but probably eBay will help me. I’m hoping. Any idea how to unlock it?

Conundrum

Hi y’all! I’ve been deciding between the 16 and 17 base models. Is the 17 wider than the 16? I know the screen is a bit bigger. I don’t care much about the 120ghz but other than that difference, what else does the 17 offer?

No AI feels like freedom.

Upgraded from a 13. I wanted the 16 but then the 15 has no AI so I went in. Got a good deal for 256 gb and it has no cosmetic damage. I wasn’t very keen on the yellow but honestly, it’s so pretty and summery. It’s a very light lemon yellow and I love it! I’ve wanted the Dynamic Island because I just did. lol. The 15 is such a good bridge to having something modern without AI. Going to keep this one forever. lol.

Edit: I know I can turn off AI but I’d rather just not have it. The whole point of my post was to be excited about the 15 and the color. 🤦‍♀️
