LCD Writing Tablet, Full Screen Digital Notepad for Adults and Kids, Reuseable Notepad with Hall Switch, Drafting, Taking Notes and Leaving Message, 6.5" inch, Black

Does the job great, i use this everyday at work to note customers needs, only replaced battery once in 8-10 months, good product i would recommend

Does the job but screen could be brighter

Initially, I thought it was just a toy, but as the days progressed I found myself using it all day long as a sort of post-it note. It's very enjoyable to write on and surprisingly useful. The size is exactly right too, at least for me as someone who doesn't like large notebooks. Update (which is why a star was taken off the earlier review): I decided to buy the larger (9 inch, which is listed as 9.5 inch) version of this tablet to give as a gift (I know too many people born end of October and in November and December...). The tablet arrived today, and right there on the front of the box is a *very* sticky label that is impossible to take off without leaving a gooey sticky mess, or worse, accidentally denting or ripping the box. I had to return it, and that's sad because it's a nice tablet.

If you are considering the LONGTOO LCD Writing Tablet, then you probably already have a possible use for it on your mind already. It only uses battery power to erase and reset the 'screen'. At all other times it is using no power at all. Which makes it perfect as a phone notepad, a shopping list, a hallway memo pad etc. It is not backlit. As you write on the screen, you clear away LCD crystals and the turquoise sheet behind shows through. So the brighter the ambient light, the brighter the writing will appear. But even on my office desk, under an offset light, it is perfectly readable. The only battery is a button cell, which is used to reset the screen. The instructions say the screen can reset 50,000 times. But that actually means the battery. If the screen is not resetting, the button cell is flat and needs replacing. The device itself is quite a smart looking thing. It is light, but does not look cheap. It is the kind of device, where if someone sees it on your desk, and is shown what it does, they will probably go out and get one for themselves. The delete/reset button on the back is raised slightly, so you can locate it by feel, without having to turn the tablet over. Although this model has a screen lock switch, I deliberately tried to erase the screen by pressing on the base of the tablet. But the delete button needs a positive press, so I was not able to accidentally clear the screen while writing. The other really nice feature of this model, as opposed to others I have seen, is that the LONGTOO does not react to finger or palm pressure. It only seems to work via the stylus tip. I use mine as a kind of electronic Post-it-Note. Somewhere to write down short-term information, deal with it, then reset the screen. And for that purpose it works incredibly well, and I don't end each day with a wastebin full of little squares of paper.

The writing from the stylus is clearer on this pad than others I’ve used. The button is sometimes a little bit sensitive and requires a couple presses, but this could be down to needing a new battery. Ultimately, it does what I wanted and I’d recommend if you want a small pocket-sized lcd writing pad.

Absolutely nothing like the product images at all. Nowhere near as bright or clear. I found it to be completely unreadable. The device worked as stated in terms of writing and clearing, but you just can’t read what you write because it’s so weak and dull. Sent back for a refund. Definitely disappointed.

The writing was crisp and tight to begin with, and easy to see with the appropriate lighting. After 2 months the writing started to bulge, to the point that you could only write a couple of words on one line. The writing also slowly fades until you can barely read it. I tried replacing the battery but no joy. You can see the larger pad in the photo that I bought around the same time has kept its crispness and brightness. It was good while it lasted, very handy for daily to-do's etc

If you work in a restaurant this is a game changer. Much better than writing on paper. Just a click of a button and the page is empty again. Quick, elegent, time saving. It fits in your pocket. There is plenty of space to write orders. It’s a must buy
