Kindle Scribe 2 review in progress: Is slightly useful AI worth the extra cash?

Amazon 's Kindle Scribe 2 is a good ereader and competent writing tablet with functioning AI -powered summary and refinement features.

The new Premium Pen also has a customizable shortcut button so long-pressing it can activate the highlighter, pen, marker, pencil, eraser, canvas or sticky note.

The price is relatively high, but we're not sure if its price is justified.

We will update the story with a score and more impressions once we've understood all of its strengths and weaknesses.

Amazon ’s new Kindle Scribe will be getting the Active Canvas and generative AI features.

Amazon previewed a collapsible margins feature, which lets you scribble in the column on either side of every book.

Summarize and Refine tools let you work Amazon 's magic on the page or entire notebook.

The Kindle Scribe offers a smooth, convenient writing experience in a svelte, relatively light package.

Neither Refine nor Summarize are groundbreaking new features in generative AI or even note-taking.

I need more time and testing to better understand how useful it might be in the long run.
