LCD Writing Tablet, 11.5in Double Display Erasable Reusable Electronic Drawing Pads, Electronic scratchpad for Kids and Adults Black

I like this as an alternative to paper, and to fill a niche grab-and-go need to hand write notes during the day and quickly transfer to them more permanently / digitally for records later. For that use, this LCD pad works wonderfully so far. I do not doodle now with it or, simply as what I said. I like that you can write on both sides and quickly erase a designated side with the push of a button. Do not expect to be able to erase something specifically, and you will be fine. As the instructions say, this product works best and is designed for use in bright light, so do not expect much if you plan to use in low light as it becomes too difficult to use practically. All in all, so far so good. It's nice that an extra battery comes enclosed in addition to the one already installed in the unit. If I were to be critical of anything, it would be that even the pressure from a small contact, such as a fingernail, can add contaminating marks to the tablet as if the enclosed stylus pen does itself. Other than that, the tablet works well for what it was designed. I hope this helps and thanks for reading!

UPDATED The tablet works great now, i went ahead and got brand new batteries (the two in the included must have been old or very low quality) and it fixed the issue, only thing to be mindful is if you apply too much pressure it can leave semi permanent marks on the writing surface, they will go away eventually but will take lots of use. Original one side works amazing, its and lcd screen so you need light for it to work (its not a digital screen) the version i purchased is double sided which i thought was neat, but after a day of using it as a scratch pad for math the smaller of the two sides stopped erasing all the way. It only leaves a half faded image when you press the erase button. I'm going to keep it because the other side still works great and takes up the entire tablet size and attaches the stylus magnetically. But its annoying that half the functionality of the tablet doesn't work, Don't need the other side but super annoying that I know mines broken.

Use these all the time. This time needed a bigger one so got this one. Great size. Front and back use with individual erase bottom. Replaceable battery and it comes with an extra battery. Pen is magnetic so it adheres to the bottom of the tablet. Not heavy, but not feather weight. Easy to use. Excellent quality and craftsmanship. Just get a big book case and this becomes very useful to carry around with you. Very pleased with my purchase and this brand. Be mindful this is not and iPad and with good ambient light it’s clear and easy to read

This is pretty great when you're using it in bright lighting. You can write with at least the precision of a ball point pen. I really like that you can write on both sides, and the stylus sticks to the bottom for storage. The problem is that if you're not in bright lighting, it's hard to see because the light blue against black background just doesn't have enough contrast, to the point where you can barely see it at all when it is in shadow. Since my desk doesn't have a spotlight pointing at it, it's barely readable. It would be so much better if the markings were white, yellow or bright green instead. The seller images are extremely misleading since they show bold lines in bright green instead of the very fine lines in dark cyan. I do like the precision, and it is extremely responsive and reliable so far. It's just very hard to see under dimmer lighting. Since my phone enhances contrast when taking pictures, the first picture I posted looks super bright and readable. I took a second picture in darker lighting that better represent what it actually looks like in normal, semi-dim indoor lighting.

I've tried other similar tablets, but this one is my fav. I struggled with thick lines/strokes and poor erasing capability with others. Yes, you'll need ample light to see, but I don't plan on taking notes in the dark. Of all the tablets I tried, this one has the closest resemblance to pilot pen lines that are just perfect to write and read. The writing is the most legible and looks crisp. The erasing feature is flawless, too. Also, you can use both sides of the tablet! This is the one if you are looking for the closest alternative to actual pen and paper. Hopefully, it stands the test of time.
