Today, reMarkable unveiled the Paper Pro, their first-ever color eNote! This next-generation device features the advanced E Ink Gallery™ 3 color display – the first eNote to use this display. reMarkable’s tagline is “Better paper. Better thinking”, and they create devices that allow their customers to work without constraints and distractions, and focus.
reMarkable launched their first-generation device back in 2016 after their founder noticed his colleagues still preferred to write notes on paper, even though they had smartphones and laptops available. In 2020, the company launched reMarkable 2 and had shipped over a million devices by 2022.
E Ink’s black and white displays have been instrumental in defining digital note-taking with their paper-like experience, low power consumption and easy readability. In fact, there is no other display technology on the market that so closely mimics real paper.

The Technology Behind the Display
The E Ink Gallery 3 is based on the E Ink ACeP™ Advanced Color ePaper platform. This full-color display is achieved through a four-particle ink system: cyan, magenta, yellow, and white, allowing a full color gamut at each pixel. Gallery 3 combines the benefits of full-color and low-power consumption, inherent in every E Ink display.
From Gallery to Kaleido, Spectra, and Prism, color innovation continues to drive E Ink’s advancements across ePaper platforms. Today marks a significant milestone in the industry, akin to the advent of color television. With the Paper Pro, reMarkable is pushing the boundaries of digital note-taking, offering a colorful and enhanced user experience.
