Rocketbook Multi-Subject Reusable Smart Notebook | Eco-Friendly, Digitally Connected Notebook with Dividers | Lined, 8.5” x 11”, 70 PG, Black, with Pen, Cloth, and App Included

I have always loved Rocketbook notebooks since they first came out with the Wave in 2015. I lost the Wave I had back then and kind of forgot about them until just recently and wow! Their options are amazing! The app has come a long way since the last time I downloaded it.PROS:- Truly reusable with very helpful subject dividers (that you can move and place wherever you need them!)- Works with all of the Frixion pens, markers, and highlighters I've bought- Pen that it comes with actually works, unlike some other notebooks I've bought that come with a pen that are bone dry by the time they get to me- The app allows you to choose folders to upload your scans into on various online cloud sites like Google Drive, OneDrive, and Dropbox, but it also can go to sites like Evernote, Slack, and an email of your choosing- So far, the OCR feature in the app has been relatively accurate with some exceptions, which is fine. Even Adobe struggles sometimes. I also have oddly spelled names in the story ideas I've written in mine and a lot of very unused words (like ballagarraidh, which is technically Scottish Gaelic)- The app has tutorials built in so you actually know how to use all the features and it has an obvious spot in case you forget how to do something- The ink only takes about 10-15 seconds for it to dry, which is pretty sweetCONS:- I don't recommend using the Frixion highlighters on it. I used it and it smudged the word I was highlighting pretty badly. I rewrote the word to see if that would help, but it just created a pool of ink that didn't dry even though a decent amount of time had passed.- There will come a point that you will not have a clean paper no matter how hard you try to get it all out. It's sucky. I'm hoping this is just a problem with the microfiber cloth needing to be washed so we'll see if that's the case.- You have to buy your own spray bottle.- The microfiber cloth is kinda too big to me. When I try to get a nice, smooth wipe to not get other parts of what I've written on the page, the cloth will just wrinkle on itself and start removing ink in spots that I don't want it to. It is NOT as easy and smooth to wipe all the ink off like they show in the video.Overall, I just love this notebook and am excited to finally have a notebook I can use for classes that doesn't end up filled and unusable and taking up space on my desk shelf like normal notebooks. I definitely recommend getting the pen packs from Frixion, especially the colored ones since it's not a good idea to use the highlighters to emphasize things.

The Rocketbook works great! I own the Core, Fusion Plus, Mini, and Multi-Subject. It works exactly as advertised. When scanning with the app, image quality is as good as your camera will allow. OCR text recognition is as expected... it really relies on handwriting quality and consistent lines (I tend to reduce pen pressure at the end of each letter, so most OCR software struggles with my writing).The dividers in the multi-subject notebook work in the other letter sized notebooks. While the dividers can be removed and replaced many times, I think the tabs that go in the coils could eventually break.The ink erases easily with a dampened towel (use the included towel to protect the page surface).Note: don't press too hard when erasing, otherwise you can end up removing the surface coating. Don't press too hard when writing either.If you experience "ghosting" (happens if you leave dark ink on the page for an extended time), a hot, wet towel can remove it.Keep in mind also, the ink is heat sensitive. If you leave the notebook in your car during a hot summer, the ink might disappear. (If this happens, you might be able to recover it by placing it in your freezer).Every notebook comes with a towel and pen. The envelope has a big compartment that holds the notebook and towel. Then a smaller, sealed separately, compartment holds the pen. Any review stating there wasn't a pen likely didn't notice the separate compartment.Note about Frixion writing utensils: the pens work well. I haven't been impressed with the markers.

Works fine, but came with a few pages with smudges/blemishes on them that can be erased and just mess with the feel and quality given how much was paid. I like rocket book, I just wish quality was a bit more aligned with what they used to be. The last few books I’ve bought have been blemished like thisUpdating from 2 to 5 stars. Customer support was amazing and, upon checking the replacement, there are absolutely no blemishes or damaged pages. Their support and timely assistance was greatly appreciated

My biggest problem after two full semesters of use is that the spiral binding has started to break pieces off, which is fairly annoying to deal with. I'm hoping I can get the company support to send me a new spiral or something, since the rest of the book is holding up.Cleaning the pages takes a bit of time, but scanning with the app is a breeze, and I love being able to carry one notebook with me for all my classes, and to write clearly/easily with erasable pen instead of pencil or permanent pen. I do still wonder if I would have been better served by an electronic notepad or tablet of some kind, but this is a better value and more durable than those, and having physical pages is really nice in its own way.To be fair, I only bought it because it was on treasure truck for $26, but in hindsight, as long as I can get the breaking spiral problem resolved, I'd be satisfied with the purchase at a higher price. With them on sale again, I may buy 1-2 more for added convenience.
