Exceeds my expectations.
The new Rocketbook is honestly better than I had expected. I anticipated a certain amount of "plasticky feel" to the pages, but it's not anywhere near as bad as I had planned for. The Frixion pens write pretty smoothly, but there is a slight trick I've figured out... write with the end of the pen upward & more perpendicular to the page rather than back at an angle. I tend to write like this normally so there wasn't any learning curve with me, but my wife has had to do a bit of adjusting. The more angle the pen has, the more the ink seems to skip or be inconsistent.
The pages do work well with Frixion pens as well as the Frixion highlighters. When using highlighters, the photo enhancement setting seemed to scan them best. The app works well,but has some room for future growth.
Overall, I'm really happy with the new notebooks. I had planned to get a wave but the microwave thing just seeemd inconvenient. I'm really going to be using these a lot for work meeting notes. Being able to sync them directly to the Box or Dropbox project folders to share with others is awesome.
