Cheap alternative pens for remarkable2 (alien.top)

submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Lost my pen less than a month after I bought it, are there any cheap alternatives ? I tried goojodoq since it apparently works but it was just wasted money

(Still have alot of spare nibs nibs? Or like if it was a pencil the lead part of it just not the pen itself)

I have read some reviews that indicate one of the better replacement pens for the rM2 is the Amazon Scribe Pen (pro version) works very good.

Got the Lamy after the official one. Lamy is absolutely amazing!

If you prefer thin, cheap, amazon scribe.

Thin, fancy (with button), the premium amazon scribe;

Thick, with good grip, for long write, Lamy emr alstar. Got this one from the beginning, with the POM tips, needed to look no further.

This is the best “cheap” option i came across. Just dont bend or manipulate it any way that will cause it flex/bow. I did that and the internal coil was damaged and so it stopped working, but the vendor was super cool. They replaced it for free when i let them know.

It has a magnet and very similar shape to that of the remarkable marker, but it does not have the same weight. Also, the texture of the marker, if you’re familiar with it, is non existent and is much more smooth. Other than that its very nice and the eraser works just fine.

I also recommend this folio/case

That case looks amazing but do you know if it fits with the keyboard folio or does it replace the folio altogether?

I’ve heard the same on all the other pens previously mentioned, ( steadier, Lamy) but I got the white king write. $50, and eraser works right out of the box. Another plus, it can use the remarkable brand nibs. Since it’s the first pin i got for my reMarkable, I can’t really compare it to anything, but it seems to work perfectly fine.. Calligraphy pins and everything worked fine. I’m not sure if the pencil shading is wonky ,or if that’s just the way the tool shades.

If you're really looking for cheap you can get knock off Samsung Galaxy styluses for cheap and they work on all my eink tablets. I was able to get one. For like $5 online.
