Neo Studio 2

I just used the Neo Smart Pen for the first time, and found it worked great! As soon as I opened the app, the pen prompted me to connect, even while charging. Once charged to 100% (~30-45 mins from 30%), I took it for test drive. The physical pen is very sleek, with a good weight, not too heavy and not too light or plasticky. It is cosmetically appealing, and the ‘camera’ is placed in a spot that is nearly impossible to cover up while writing, even with manhandle of a pen grip. The app itself is very intuitive, it shows you the Pen’s battery percent, and connects as soon as you take off the pen cap. You can adjust several settings, such as the color of the text, digitally. This is super helpful for going back over my notes, and I’m already excited to swap out some old notebooks for these ones. Finally, a small but in my eyes important note; the User Guide was clear and concise. It took less than a minute to read, unlike my review, which made setup completely unburden-some.

I shifted from Neo studio 2022 because they said it was deprecated. I was able to transfer all the data from that account up to the web app when I log into the web app using Apple login. These transferred pages appear on the neo studio 2 app. But now anything I write is not uploaded to the web it says it is sinking but I think something is wrong. The Neo studio two app has an Apple lprivateapplerelay email address and the web app is showing my actual email address. Even though I used Apple login for both of them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My wife purchased the LAMY Safari Ncode pen and digital paper for me. Since the beginning, the pen does not synchronize the data properly. It recognizes the writing is in process, and saves the data into hardware (it seems). Upon synchronization the iOS or MacOS app does not show the writing on the pages, despite it recognizes the right page numbers have been used. I contacted the support, even send them detailed video that clearly shows the problem visually. The web version was initially showing me the synchronized data, and I was fine using the web version, but even that stopped showing me the wiring on the pages for the last 5 page. Frustrating part is that the support team stopped answering my emails, I don’t seem to find any other communication channel. It has been more than 2 weeks and they did not answer my last 3 emails, so I’m assuming if the device and app works for you, you are fine. Based on the bad review numbers, I am assuming my device is defective, but I don’t know how to return it since they are not providing me any response. At the end, I cannot even tell my wife because she will so upset that I’m using a standard ballpoint pen (and a really bad one on that), and paper notebook, that I could have find better options. If you are using a good product, that’s awesome!I’m happy for you. If you got the lottery, then it seems you throw away your >$180.
