Montblanc has introduced the Montblanc Digital Paper writing tablet, priced at $905. This device features a black-and-white e-ink screen and comes with a digital pen inspired by Montblanc’s Meisterstück line. Users can use the tablet for note-taking, sketching, and annotating books in EPUB or PDF format.
The technical specifications of the tablet include a 3740 mAh battery housed within an aluminum shell, though details about battery life under typical usage conditions are not provided. The device has a leather side bar for magnetically attaching and wirelessly charging the pen, and it offers over 4,000 levels of pressure sensitivity. While the technical features are available, the focus appears to be on providing a luxury experience rather than cutting-edge technology. Notably, the device accommodates interchangeable tips designed to replicate three different paper textures.
Montblanc has previously ventured into digital writing with products like the Augmented Paper line and styli designed for Samsung devices, but the Digital Paper tablet signifies a new direction for the brand. For consumers considering e-ink writing tablets, alternative options may provide more features for a lower price, such as the $629 Remarkable Paper Pro, which offers color among other capabilities. However, those interested in a high-end digital writing experience may find the Montblanc Digital Paper suitable for upscale settings, particularly when complemented by premium accessories like a calf leather folio.
