Hi, This might be a topic that gets asked a lot but I didn’t see the answer in any of the threads I looked at until now.

I just got a used remarkable 1 that came without a pen, and have been looking at alternative pens for it (specifically the staedtler noris, the one that looks like a pencil). I’ve heard that the pen itself will work on RM1 but will the eraser function work? And if not, are there other good alternatives that have an eraser function, or did support for erasers come out in RM2?

I got only a vague answer from remarkable chat when I asked about backwards compatibility

    Wacom one is my favorite and I have had them all (LAMY, Kindle scribe premium, Remarkable Marker and Wacom). I use the Wacom daily with the button hack to use it as an eraser. the button is far better than flipping for the back. Scribe has both eraser and button and all I use is the button.

    My order: Wacom One best > Kindle Scribe > Remarkable > Lamy

    Lamy for me was too light, cap just gets in the way and button placement is poor for my hand. sold it on ebay
