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

The new Kindle Scribe 2 offers a smooth and convenient writing experience with a 10.2-inch screen that feels sharper than its predecessor. It has a new Active Canvas feature for writing on eBooks, but it can be buggy and sometimes triggers accidentally. The device also includes generative AI features like Summarize and Refine, which can help organize and clean up handwritten notes. However, these features are not groundbreaking and are available on other products. The Scribe's 0.22-inch thickness and 433-gram weight make it comfortable to use, and it's great for reading and doodling on PDFs and "write-on books." There's potential for the device to become more useful if Amazon invests in its format and integrates it with digital tools.
