At ordinary times, there are many business activities and meetings are frequent. The demand for notebooks is very strong, and reusable notebooks have never been used. However, Japanese made baccarat pens have still been seen. Elfinbook reusable notebooks are also equipped with a baccarat pen, which can be used together. The biggest selling point of this product is actually its app. Scanning documents is a common scene used by everyone in the office. Signing a contract, taking an ID card, etc., all need to be scanned. Elfinbook's app that can repeatedly write a notebook can easily transform mobile phone photos into scanned documents or pictures, which is very convenient to use. From the perspective of product function splitting, this notebook can be analyzed from three levels:

1. The notebook is made of stone paper, with good tenacity, laying the groundwork for repeatable writing;

2. It can be used with Baile pen to achieve the function of repeatable writing;

3. Cooperate with App to manage scanned documents.

As for the cost performance of this product, whether it is worth buying will be summarized at the end of the article. According to the old rules, let's first look at the appearance:

Unpacking and details

The package is simple. It is a white paper box with various functions of the product written on the surface: made of stone, smooth writing, waterproof and durable, reusable, automatic scanning, note enhancement, cloud backup, document management.

The back is the product's app QR code, which can be downloaded by scanning.

The manual consists of two sheets of paper, a paper card with a VIP code and a pen. What we need to complain about here is that Elfinbook's app that can write laptops repeatedly needs VIP to use more functions. Sharing pictures also has watermarks, which is too bad. Similar to scanned documents, there are a lot of free products. Don't just want to make money?

The size of the notebook is B5, which is not much different from the notebook we usually use. In terms of color matching, there are two official colors, one is gray, and the other is black. Personally, black is more compelling.

The notebook is printed with the logo of the company's products, which is very simple.

The cover is made of PP material, with frosted surface and excellent hand feel. Compared with ordinary notebooks, this cover feels a bit moist. This is the magic of PP material.

The notebook is moderately thick, and 40 pages of stone paper can be reused, so it is light and moderate.

The way that the spiral iron wire is inserted to fix the notebook also makes the notebook look traditional. In the era of pursuing individualization, innovation is actually necessary, and updating the style design may attract more people.

The paper style of the inner page is very simple, and a thick wireframe on the periphery serves as the area identified by the App. What is stone paper? Stone paper is made of limestone mineral resources with large reserves and wide distribution as the main raw material (calcium carbonate content is 70-80%), high polymer as the auxiliary material (content is 20-30%), using the chemical principle of polymer interface and the characteristics of polymer modification, after special process treatment, using polymer extrusion and blow molding process. Inorganic powder environmental protection new material stone paper products have the same writing performance and printing effect as plant fiber paper. It has the characteristics of good mechanical performance, waterproof, moisture-proof, moth proof, folding resistance, tear resistance, oil resistance, non-toxic, tasteless, pollution-free, stable geometric dimensions, high printing clarity, good effect, and can be naturally degraded into powder after use and returned to nature—— From Baidu Encyclopedia. For this material, we can raise our thumbs. We have never seen this kind of writing paper before. After checking, JD found that there are notebooks with this kind of paper, but the prices are quite expensive.

The free Baile pen is also a popular design, which looks no different from ordinary pens. Baile pen also writes some notes. In terms of science and technology, the Japanese are still worthy of respect. This pen is very practical. When heated, the handwriting will disappear, and when cooled, it will recover. Isn't this the routine of martial arts secret script in the martial arts films?

The 0.5mm nib is still thick. Xiaomo prefers a very thin nib of at least 0.35mm, which varies from person to person.

The back of the pen barrel is equipped with a friction head to erase handwriting. The principle is also very simple: friction generates heat.

Anatomy of Baile pen: refills can be purchased separately, and can be found in Jingdong and Taobao. The price is not expensive, about five or six yuan each.

The feeling about the use of pens varies from person to person. When signature pens became popular, accounting for almost 90% of our usage rate, pens have been buried in the corner as collectibles. The development of science and technology has given birth to the existence of this thermal pen. Although it is expensive, it is still very practical.

Writing experience

It can be written in a notebook repeatedly in Elfinbook with a pen, which is a little different from traditional paper. 1、 Stone paper is relatively flexible, and its softness is relatively high when writing. It can clearly feel the obstruction caused by the pen sliding on the paper. If the writing force is too large, it will be more obvious. 2、 The ink density of the Baile pen is smaller than that of the traditional signature pen, and the written words have a watery feeling. But the actual effect is similar. The picture is as follows: Li Bai's Will Drink.

How about the erasability of Elfinbook's rewritable notebook? Since the pen is a thermal ink, only heating the book can eliminate the writing. We still test the erasing effect through the erasing head of the pen. After all, you can't change the handwriting with a hair dryer.

It is very difficult to use the erasing head of the pen to erase the handwriting. After all, the friction heat is enough to erase the handwriting. Actually, the damage to the notebook is also fatal. As shown in the figure above, the paper is flexible and can not avoid the deformation of the stone paper, which is only the effect of erasing once. If you erase it five or six times, the paper can be said to be unreachable. However, it is still advisable to erase one or two words to make changes. If the whole notebook is full, you can use a hair dryer to heat the whole notebook to eliminate handwriting.

App Features

It was also mentioned that the Elfinbook rewritable notebook app requires vip to use full functions, which is not satisfactory. What is the scanning effect?

The content of App homepage management is very simple, including a photo button, several folders, and the personal center is also very simple. There are tutorials. Compared with ordinary users, advanced VIP users have less watermark and more folder management functions.

File scanning can automatically identify the thick line frame of the Elfinbook rewritable notebook. Even if your notebook is tilted, it can scan out normal documents. The scanned documents can be processed in black and white, and the effect can be enhanced. It also supports converting files directly into PDF files that are more convenient for printing. The following is the actual display effect of the scanned file.

The above is the display of the two scanning results. Although the details of the oblique scanning are lost, the actual size and distortion of the handwriting are not different from the original text after the handwriting enhancement, and the scanning image effect is close to the level of the printer scanning. So the scanning effect of this app is very commendable. Let's compare a free scanning app Xiaomo often uses, and scan an A4 paper to see how the comparison effect is.

It is obvious from the above comparison chart that the scanning effect of Elfinbook App on the black smudging of handwriting is quite serious, which means that although Elfinbook App has some limitations in function, its effect is not first-class. Therefore, Xiaomo feels that Elfinbook App still charges a fee, which is really unworthy. He hopes that the manufacturer can consider the free app, so as to attract more users, right?

Experience summary

Elfinbook rewritable notebook, as a rewritable notebook, is actually a patchwork product of several user application scenarios in Xiaomo's view. First: Use the characteristics of stone paper to satisfy users' curiosity about this high-tech product. In fact, this kind of stone paper is really a thing of the past. Environmental protection, durable, waterproof, etc. Second: We use a pen as a tool for erasing handwriting to meet our needs for this very common application scenario. Third: The research and development of the App with Elfinbook can scan and store the notes in the cloud repeatedly, so as to meet the problem of note saving in our daily work. As for the repeatability of notebook, I feel it is of moderate value. Finally, let's talk about the price. Elfinbook can repeat the official quotation of 89 yuan for notebooks. Is this price worth it? Taobao randomly searched for stone paper notebooks. Those priced at about 50 yuan are very exquisite notebooks. Each pen costs 10 yuan. The quality of free apps is much better, and the cost performance is naturally clear. In general, this Elfinbook rewritable notebook is still scary. If you are interested, you can buy one to try it out.
