6.5in LCD Writing Tablet, Reusable Notepad with Lock, Pocket Doodle Board | Slim single-display writing tablet with lock switch and included stylus

𝗦𝗨𝗠𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗬 A simple LCD tablet is made better by a small form-factor and bezel-less design. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗘𝗖𝗛𝗡𝗢𝗟𝗢𝗚𝗬 This device uses a simple passive LCD tablet technology that is found in products like the Boogie Board and those countless drawing tablets for kids. Unlike the multi-color of those kiddie tablets, this screen has a single green color. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗘𝗡 I was initially skeptical in ordering this because of the negative reviews regarding their difficulty in reading the screen. But I bought one anyway and I'm glad that I did. This isn't a backlit active LCD. It needs a good ambient light to read what is on the screen. It is no worse than those other tablets. The "resolution" (if that's an applicable term here) of the screen seems to be higher than the kiddie tablet I bought off Wish or the "professional" full size version (with folio case) I bought on Temu. I am able to draw finer lines on this than those others. Even when swapping the styli around, this allows for finer details. (see attached photo) 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗧𝗬𝗟𝗨𝗦 The stylus is a decent size and weight that is well matched to the tablet. It is slightly thicker than the tablet itself, and the magnet is strong enough to keep it attached to the tablet when in a shirt pocket. I would definitely like the magnet to be stronger, but it serves the purpose. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗕𝗨𝗧𝗧𝗢𝗡 The erase button is on the back of the tablet. At first this seemed to be a bit odd, but after using the tablet for a while I appreciated the design decision. By having the button on the back, it allows the tablet to be bezel-less, and makes it less likely to accidentally press the erase button. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠-𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗢𝗥 This is one of the few tablets that comes in a size this small. Not having a bezel means that there is a surprising amount of space to write and draw. It is nearly identical in size to a smart phone and it fits comfortably in a shirt pocket. Super handy to take out and about. 𝗨𝗦𝗘𝗦 I keep this on my desk with me and jot down numbers or other info for immediate and temporary reference (dimensions when designing graphics, contact email, etc.) When I go out, I tuck it in my shirt pocket for taking quick notes. I sometimes use the free eWriter Jot app to take a screenshot (it produces a negative of the image) for those things that I want to save.

It’s a great thing not to have to waste paper on notes. I love this little LCD note pad. It’s so handy for taking do n notes o the fly never carried a note book with e before but now having this LCD note pad I use it for work and for home reminders mostly and log info for work. Has worked great easy to use I love the case and stylus how it attaches to the LCD note pad. Highly recommended if you need to take notes this is the way o go.

I bought this and the Boogie board at the same time to test it out. I liked that this allowed for locking the screen and using the entire surface for writing. The writing pad is definitely not as bright as the stock pictures would suggest. It's pretty much unreadable in a dimly light room but I can see it easily enough in a well light one. I ended up keeping this and returning the Boogie board because the Boogie board wasn't any lighter and looked more like a toy than a writing pad. This pad pretty much has no bezel either so it really does feel like writing on a pad of paper. The handwriting is very pen-like. Similar pads have wider, less crisp handwriting but with this, the writing is sharp, allowing you to write smaller and more detailed notes. The ability to lock the screen is great for when I write a reminder or a note to read later. This is a handy notebook to keep in a purse or in the car for quick notes. The screen erases quickly and completely and the pen strokes are thin, crisp, and can be seen easily in bright or natural light.

I primarily use the notes app in my computer or phone, but I still regularly find myself just needing to write down a quick reference number/phone number (or whatever). Now that most stuff is digital, I no longer have a ready supply of scratch paper, and I don't want to buy/waste new paper. I've been looking for something that isn't wasteful or expensive, and I've tried a few different solutions. This is by far my favorite. I love the size--it fits in any space my phone does, but since it's two sided, I get the same writing space as a Boogie Board Jot, and it allows for finer details than the jot and has a screen lock. I also like it better than the portable white boards I've tried because I don't have to keep cleaner on hand and pushing a button is soooo much faster. It feels sturdier than my jot and held up better in its first week of use (my jot is already showing stress around the edges of the screen). It also looks more professional. I'm so happy with this purchase. Totally worth the price I paid.

It can only be used during the day, as it relies on sunlight to illuminate the gel inside. At night, it doesn’t work because you can’t see anything.

This product is very cool in concept. I have saved tons of paper and ink. I work with PHI and it's nice to press a button and have all my notes disappear. I do have a problem with the tablet I received, though. A significant area at the top of the screen is "dead" so whatever I write, it's very smudged and is more faint visually. As I write towards the middle and bottom, the lines are crisp and easy to read. I may have to try another kind. But overall, what a great idea.

I'm a young adult with severe ADHD and have struggled to keep track of my thoughts consistently my whole life, I'm also a chronic doodler.. I will often have random sketch ideas on the fly but often don't think to write them down. This little tool is everything I've needed, pocket-sized, can use any pen-shaped tool to write on it (or your fingernail if necessary), and waterproof; this has assisted me with writing notes in the rain at my job! When I have this thing with me I remember to write it down, no devices to distract me. Wish my parents got me one of these things instead of unmonitored internet access as a kid... I 100% recommend this to those who struggle to remember things and keep sticky notes on em, it's the size of my phone so I just slide it into the same pocket :)

These LCD writings tablets are hard to come by. In stores, Boogieboard seems to own a monopoly on these things. They're pricey, have extremely wide bezels, and come in odd shapes (meant to appeal to kids most likely). And if you buy the knockoffs on Amazon, they often have weird, cheap screens that are quite unpleasant (almost aggravating) to write on. Imagine a soft, rippling, unsmooth, slightly gritty plastic surface that writes fuzzy. Moving on to the review. This little tablet has exceeded all expectations and surpasses the Boogieboard in so many ways. Amaretti makes the most of the screen/writing space, includes a lock feature, replaceable battery, bright neon writing, solid smooth writing surface, and the best feature has to be the pen itself. Nothing comes out fuzzy! In fact, writing comes out so sharp I can write extremely small sentences (or formulas) and read them with ease. I bought this for university and it has been excellent for quick notes I need to jot, or to drill myself on formulas. Thank you Amaretti, for making one of these LCDs that is actually worth buying. I just ordered a second one.
