Máquina de escribir inteligente

Eliminates distractions and can write in peace and quiet!

Got this as a bday treat for myself and it’s been the best gift to me. Something about having a smaller screen and the sound of the keyboard allows me to just write as my thoughts come, not having to worry about all the edits or story planning yet. I feel like my soul is truly able to get out what it WANTS to say before my mind bogs it down with how it should be said. I feel like, because of the set up of this device, my words come out truer. I feel like when I get to editing, I’m working from a beautifully authentic draft which makes me happy and excited about the work I create.

I had read many reviews on the Freewrite Smart Typewriter and watched many Youtube videos about it. But I wasn't prepared for the joy I would experience in using this wonderful writing device. The rave reviews are all true. Thank you, Freewrite!

I own a Traveler and L-O-V-E it. I’ve wanted to get a Smart Typewriter for awhile for home use, where I often write in low light levels. Or sometimes even in the dark. I didn’t think I could like a keyboard more than I do the Traveler, but I stand corrected — the Smart Typewriter keyboard is even better. The few shortfalls I found with the Traveler are almost non-existent with the ST. The light is a perfect level for use anytime — bright, dark, and everything in between. And for me, this is the biggest complaint about the Traveler — I can’t use it in low light or dark (Though if a light was added to the Traveler, I would prefer an on/off switch instead of always on, like the ST). The lag between keyboard and screen that the Traveler has is almost gone with the ST. I notice it a little bit at times, but for the most part it’s not there. And since the WIFI can just be left on all the time, I find the syncing to be much more reliable. The only thing I’ve found so far with the ST is more of a user muscle-memory type thing: the space bar is very pronounced, and if I hold my hand like I normally do on all of my other keyboards, my thumb rides the space bar (I don’t notice it, it barely touches it), and so I get random spaces throughout my draft. A lot of them. But this isn’t something that’s the ST’s fault, it’s just something I have to be aware of.

I love how easy it is to write on. It’s light enough that I can sit with my legs stretched across an ottoman with it balanced on my lap or legs. Cloud functionality with postbox is excellent as well as the syncs with Dropbox and OneDrive. Syncing between Sprinter and the Freewrite gets messy taking drafts in and out of sprinter. I only took a star off because the international shipping (Uni Uni) was too expensive for the poor tracking info, limited customer service and a delivery target of 10-15 business days. I bought the sleeve from Amazon instead since I was worried it might come by Uni Uni again.
