Four tech-enabled notebooks that are actually better than pen and paper.

While pens, pencils, and quills still work magic on a piece of paper, writing utensils for your bullet journal can be a pain to carry around. I still high school nightmares from the stacks of paper in my highschool backpack. If you’re like me, know you have the option to leave the loose sheets and explosion-prone ink pens in the past. Here are some techier options to bring your handwriting into a digital era.

1. Everlast Smart Notebook

Rocketbook
The Rocketbook Everlast Smart Notebook has 36 reusable pages that—if written on with Pilot FriXion pens, markers, or highlighters—can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. After 15 seconds the ink dries and you can scan the notes with your smartphone's camera to Dropbox, iCloud, or Google Drive. The notebook comes with one pen. $30.

2. Digital tablet

reMarkable digital notebook


I took the reMarkable with me on a trip to L.A. back in October. The tablet lets you read, write, and sketch without bulky notebooks or multiple pen sizes. There is no backlight, which means it’s easy on your eyes, and no glare so you can see in bright sunlight. It also holds a charge for several days. You can store unlimited pages, including PDFs, e-books, and your own handwritten notes. The reMarkable could be a bullet journal or an artist's notebook. Write or sketch on blank, dotted, or gridded pages. The tablet comes with a marker, 10 marker tips, and a USB cable to charge the device. It's pricey, though: $599.



3. Moleskine Evernote smart notebook

The Moleskine Evernote is a flat-lying notebook, with a hardcover, thick paper (70 grams per square meter—more on that here), an elastic band to keep the notebook closed, and a pocket inside to store loose papers or business cards. Use your smartphone—and the Evernote Page app—to capture pages from the notebook. Within the app are “Smart Stickers” that help you tag, organize, and search for scanned pages. The notebook comes with three free months of Evernote Premium. $27.
