Paper notes you can search out later
You do not have to change how you take notes. Write the way you always have, and the notebook keeps a copy on your phone.
Works without your phone nearby
Pages you write offline are stored in the notebook. They sync to the app the next time you open it.
Audio that follows your notes
Record audio in the app while you write. Press play later and your notes redraw in time with the recording.
18 hours of battery life
The maker states 18 hours from the 1300 mAh battery, charged by USB-C. The pen itself needs no battery.
Doubles as a drawing tablet
Swap the paper pad for the panel in the box and connect to a Windows, macOS or Linux computer. You get a pen tablet with 8192 pressure levels.
Easy to return
Not what you expected? Send it back within 14 days in resaleable condition for a full refund, on top of your Australian Consumer Law rights.

Frequently asked questions
You write with the included pen on the A5 paper pad. The notebook under the paper tracks the pen and sends your handwriting to the Huion Note app on your phone or tablet over Bluetooth 5.0. You keep the paper page and get a digital copy as well.
No. The notebook stores pages you write while it is not connected. They sync to the app the next time you open it.
The notebook app runs on iOS 11 or later and Android 6.0 or later. Check your phone or tablet against those versions before you order.
Notes sync to the phone app only. From the app you can export pages as a PDF or an image and send them to your computer. Graphics tablet mode is separate: with the panel fitted in place of the paper pad, the notebook connects to a Windows, macOS or Linux computer as a pen tablet.
No. The digital copy is only captured with the included pen. The pen needs no battery or charging, and the box includes three ballpoint refills and three plastic nibs.
Yes. You can fit a regular A5 pad that is under 10 mm thick. The maker recommends its own replacement pad for the best match to the working area.
The maker states 18 hours of battery life from the 1300 mAh rechargeable battery. It charges by USB-C and a cable is in the box.
Yes. We deliver to every state and territory, including regional and rural addresses. Delivery is free on orders of $99 or more, which covers the digital notebook. Remote areas can take a few days longer.
Send it back within 14 days of delivery, in resaleable condition with its packaging and accessories, and we refund the price you paid including standard delivery. That is on top of your Australian Consumer Law rights if anything arrives faulty.
Buying guide
How a Digital Notebook Works, and How to Tell if One Suits You
A digital notebook gives you a copy of your handwriting on a screen. The name covers a few different products, so it helps to know which kind you are looking at before you buy.
The kinds of digital notebook
Paper with a smart pen. You write in ink on a normal paper pad. A sensor board under the pad tracks the pen and sends each stroke to an app. This is the kind we sell.
Reusable scan notebooks. You write on wipe-clean pages, take a photo of each page with your phone, then wipe the page.
E-ink tablets. You write with a stylus on a screen that looks like paper. There is no paper at all, and they cost several times more.
How ours works
The set is a digital pen, a regular A5 paper pad and a free phone app. Open the app and the notebook pairs by Bluetooth 5.0. Write on the pad and the same lines appear in the app. If your phone is not nearby, the notebook stores the pages and syncs them later.
In the app you can merge, split and move pages into groups, mark them up with a highlighter and share them as an image, a PDF or an MP4 file.
Check your phone first
The app needs iOS 11 or later, or Android 6.0 or later. Notes sync to the phone app only. To use them on a computer, export a PDF from the app and send it across.
Recording a meeting or a class
Turn on recording in the app and your phone's microphone captures the audio while you write. On playback, your notes redraw in step with the sound. Ask before you record other people.
Pen and paper
The digital copy only works with the included pen. The pen needs no battery. The box has three ballpoint refills and three plastic nibs. When the 50-page pad is full, fit a regular A5 pad under 10 mm thick, or the maker's own replacement pad.
Drawing tablet mode
Take out the paper pad, fit the panel from the box and plug into a computer by USB-C or connect by Bluetooth. The notebook then works as a graphics tablet with 8192 pressure levels and tilt, on Windows 7 or later, macOS 10.12 or later and Linux (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS).
Size, weight and battery
The notebook measures 241 x 178 x 13 mm and weighs 433 g. The working area is 186.9 x 140.9 mm. The maker states 18 hours of battery life from the 1300 mAh battery, which charges by USB-C.
What it does not do
It will not sync straight to a computer in notebook mode, and it will not capture writing from another pen. If either of those matters to you, this is not the right notebook. Better to know now than after it arrives.
The short version
If you like writing by hand and want a copy on your phone without retyping, a paper digital notebook does that job. Check your phone's software version, read the box contents on the product page, and you have 14 days from delivery to change your mind.
