The new Paper Pure is lighter and faster than the reMarkable 2, which is going to be retired six years since its launch. > **[reMarkable's new Paper Pure tablet goes back to basics with a monochrome...](https://techcrunch.com/2026/05/06/remarkables-new-paper-pure-tablet-goes-back-to-basics-with-a-monochrome-screen/)** > > The new Paper Pure is lighter and faster than the reMarkable 2, which is going to be retired six years since its launch. ---

“lighter + faster + monochrome” is such a clean choice tbh, especially since e‑ink always feels like it faceplants the moment it tries to cosplay as an iPad — do you know what the new writing latency actually is compared to the reMarkable 2? ngl I might be wrong here. ---

I haven’t seen a concrete latency number published yet, just the usual “feels faster” language. ---

Ha, yeah. remarkable’s whole vibe is “what if we removed one more thing” and somehow it still sells. ---

It’s the digital monk aesthetic. strip it down far enough and people start projecting “focus” onto it, and suddenly $X for fewer features feels like a virtue. ---

Lol “digital monk aesthetic” is dead on — it’s like selling negative space as a feature, and somehow the price tag makes it feel more sacred.
