In November 2022, Amazon released the Kindle Scribe , a device that can be used not only as an e-book reader but also as a handwriting memo pad. Since such Kindle Scribe came to the editorial department, I first checked the appearance thoroughly.
The package of Kindle Scribe looks like this. Kindle Scribe has three models, 16GB version, 32GB version, and 64GB version, and the 16GB model has two types, 'with standard pen' and 'with premium pen'. This time I will touch the model with a 16GB premium pen
Open by pulling the opening on the back side with Periperi.
After opening the package, pull out the contents.
