Welcome back Kitchen Enthusiasts! We're trustedshoppingguide.com and today we are
in the Tech Room. In this video, two Smart Notebook brands will be going head to head.
We have the Rocketbook ****and the Moleskine. **** A smart notebook is a hybrid product that is half
digital and half analog and is designed for people who want to write on paper but want to save their
writings, jottings, scribblings, doodlings, and notes to the cloud in a distinctly newfangled way.
There's something about handwritten notes that permanently imprints ideas and concepts
in the brain, even better than voice memos or typing. And for those people, smart notebooks
are the perfect combination of old and new. We've chosen the top two competitors in our smart
notebook review, the Rocketbook and the Moleskine. This is going to be a thrilling match since these
are two new products that we will be releasing at trustedshoppingguide.com. In today's Brand Wars,
we pitted these two smart notebooks against each other so you could choose the best one for you!
If you are interested in the other Smart Notebooks that we reviewed, do check out
our Smart Notebook review video linked below. If you want direct links to the products themselves,
all these links are also listed below too. So, without further ado, let s start the brand wars!
The first category that these Smart Notebooks will be going toe to toe with is the number of pages.
The one factor that everyone needs to consider when buying a notebook
is the number of pages. Having just the right number of pages is important
since it ll allow us to express our thoughts and ideas better, and they serve as a place to
record memories, and a place for fun such as drawing, sketching, or writing poems.
Our first contender, Rocketbook, has 36 pages, giving you a variety of ways to
share your thoughts right away by just drawing a symbol on the page.
On the other hand, Moleskine has 173 pages, which allow your handwritten
notes and thoughts to travel off the page and evolve on screen in real-time.
Everyone will appreciate a notebook with a large number of pages in which they can write whatever
they want. Having said that, the Moleskine is unquestionably the winner of this round!
The second category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their size.
Regardless of what anyone says, size matters, even when it comes to notebooks.
It is good to know though that the right size for the job makes it more fun and a lot easier.
The Rocketbook is more of a personal notebook size, measuring 6 by 8.8 inches,
and can be used as a journal. On the contrary, the Moleskine measures 8.5 by 11
inches. It creates a quick and functional digital copy of every page, bringing all the advantages
of borderless digital creativity to your freehand notes, sketches, diagrams, and doodles.
The bigger the notebook, the more space you have, allowing you to write a lot more things in it. So,
for this round, it is obvious that our team has given a point for Moleskine!
The third category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their Reusability.
The ability to easily clean off your reusable notebook might be the most important feature.
After all, it isn t referred to as reusable for nothing. Many smart notebooks have different
capabilities when it comes to reusing the pages. Some require microfiber cloths, while others allow
you to use a hairdryer or microwaves. For others, their special pens might also come with erasers.
On the blue corner, we have the Rocketbook, which simply requires a wet cloth if you ever run out
of pages. For some extra space, you just have to rub the pages with this moist microfiber cloth and
wait 15 seconds for it to dry. You can also use a hairdryer to apply heat to these pages, which
helps in the erasing process. These two methods can help you save money by avoiding the purchase
of new notebooks. It also allows you to keep a single Notebook for a lengthy period of time.
On the red corner, Contrastingly, the Moleskine can only be cleaned once,
so you won't be able to reuse it. With its reusable features, the Rocketbook
outmatches its competition, which is why our team has given them a point in this match.
The fourth category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their
Page to Screen Technology. Page to screen technology allows
you to write in the smart Notebook while also viewing it on your smart device. As a result,
whatever you write and draw will be visible in real-time. You can also change the text
as well as its colors. Isn't that amazing? What's more exciting is that you can have the option of
having the textual content transcribed if you are too tired to type after a long day.
The Rocketbook lacks Page to Screen technology, which means you won't be
able to change anything you've written. On the other hand, the Moleskine comes
with a companion app that transfers what's written on the notebook page to your device,
digitizing your analog notes and allowing you to notate, share, search, edit, and organize your
thoughts. You'll definitely love the fact that the app works on both Android and Apple devices.
With the ability to change and transfer anything you have written,
it is no doubt that the Moleskine wins this round! The fifth category that these two brands will be
going toe to toe with is their Multimedia. Some people have gone totally digital,
taking class notes, jotting down to-dos, and sketching their own designs using various
productivity applications. If your smart notebook has a multimedia feature, you can transfer
everything to an app on your smartphone or PC. Using the free Rocketbook app for iOS and Android,
you can send your handwritten notes to popular cloud services like Google Drive, Dropbox,
Evernote, OneNote, Slack, iCloud email, and more. Contrastingly, the Moleskine has the ability to
record audio in sync with your notes, allowing you to flesh out your thoughts and guarantee
that nothing is lost in translation. You can also get the picture and a thousand more words
with the app, save the document as a PDF and upload it to Google Drive or Evernote.
Of course, you definitely want a smart notebook allows you to write a lot of things
and transfer them to any cloud service, and Rocketbook has that kind of feature.
Without a shadow of a doubt, our team has decided to give a point to Rocketbook in this category.
The sixth and final category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their Pen.
It is important that a smart notebook have a pen included in the package.
The pen, like the Spotlight tool on the board, allows you to highlight portions of your page.
You can use this to create a circle on the part of the work area you want to highlight
or write important information on. The Rocketbook Everlast uses
Pilot Frixion Pens, which are less expensive and readily available in different colors.
These pens use thermal ink, which disappears when exposed to heat.
When we say "add heat," we're talking about things like stroking the paper with the rubber
tip or using a hairdryer to warm it up. You can also use the tip of the pen to rub the pages.
The good thing is that these pens aren't just for notebooks with smart features,
but they can also be used on any type of paper. On the contrary, the Moleskine Smart Notebook uses
Pen plus, which utilizes Ncoded technology. This feature employs a camera located near the nib,
which recognizes each page. It not only recognizes pages on the planner but also
time and dates, ensuring that whatever you write is transmitted to your mobile and app.
When the pen's ink runs out, you can purchase ink refills. However, these pens are exclusively
compatible with Moleskine Smart Notebooks only and will not operate on any other paper.
Who wouldn t want a pen with an affordable price while also boasting compatibility with any type of
paper? Having said that, we are happy to announce that the winner for this round is the Rocketbook!
Our brand wars between the Rocketbook and the Moleskine Smart Notebook have come to an end.
This was a close race, as both smart notebooks scored three points each, resulting in a tie.
The scan quality of the Rocketbook is excellent, as is the ease with which the scans are made,
whereas the Moleskine is of excellent quality and can be used for any meeting.
And there you have it, folks the battle between the Rocketbook ****and the Moleskine has finally
ended. If you have any contenders for our next Smart Notebook face-off,
