reMarkable has launched the Paper Pure as its latest E Ink tablet. It replaces the now-discontinued reMarkable 2 and comes with lots of upgrade and a repair-friendly design

Following the launch of the Paper Move last September, reMarkable is back with a new product and its first for 2026. The new reMarkable Paper Pure arrives, not just as a successor to the now-discontinued reMarkable 2, but also as a rival to Amazon's Kindle Scribe without Front Light, which is yet to be released since its announcement in October 2025.

For the Paper Pure, reMarkable has achieved some milestones with respect to its design. It features 38% recycled materials, more than any other remarkable device. And instead of glue, it is held together by screws and snaps, which makes it easy to repair. It also has a significantly lower carbon footprint than the reMarkable 2.

The reMarkable Paper Pure can be easily repaired thanks to using screws and snaps instead of glue.

The reMarkable Paper Pure has a 10.3-inch monochrome display with a 1872 × 1404 resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio. The glare-free screen is an E Ink Carta 1300 display and it is protected by Gorilla Glass 3 with a paper-like texture. There's no front light like you have on the Paper Pro (read our review) and Paper Pro move, so once it's dark, you need an external light source to read or write on the screen.

It also has a pen-to-ink distance of 0.84mm and a writing latency of 21 milliseconds. The reMarkable Paper Pure is compatible with the same Marker and Marker Plus styluses as the Paper Pro and Paper Pro Move (available on Amazon for $499), but won't work with the styluses made for the reMarkable 2. Thankfully, you may not need to purchase a stylus as reMarkable ships it with the Marker stylus, which magnetically attaches to the side and charges wirelessly.

Powering the E Ink tablet is a 1.7GHz dual-core (Cortex-A55 cores) processor that is paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. There's no microSD card slot, but reMarkable says the available storage is comparable to 405 notebooks, and if you have a Connect subscription, you can enjoy unlimited cloud storage. Underneath the plastic back, which has anti-slip feet, is a 3,820mAh replaceable battery that can last up to 3 weeks on a single charge (1 hour of use per day). There's also dual-band Wi-Fi and a USB 2.0 Type-C port.

The reMarkable Paper Pure is powered by reMarkable OS which is a custom Linux-based operating system. It has features such as handwriting conversion, screen share, Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox integration, suport for templates, and a handful of writing tools.

The reMarkable Paper Pure is priced at $399/€399/£359, and for that price, you get the tablet, a Marker stylus, a USB-C cable, and six replacement marker tips. There's a bundle that costs $449/€469/£399 that includes the Marker Plus stylus which has an eraser at the top, and a sleeve folio case that is available in green, pink, and blue. The tablet can be ordered today, but shipping won't begin until June.
