WIRED Light. Easy to use. It can backspace! Folds up small. Distraction-free. TIRED Expensive. Lag between keystrokes and characters appearing onscreen. (From 2021)

. It's a typewriter, but unlike a real typewriter, you can carry it to a coffee shop and put your pages in a Google doc later., which is a slightly more capable device. Unlike the original Freewrite, this version is hinged for easier carrying and comes with arrow keys to edit your mistakes. It is simply a place to write anywhere, without focusing too much on the editing. And its e-ink screen is a joy to look at and doesn't hurt your eyes.

I said above that Freewrite products are made for writing, not editing. It's best to just let yourself type and edit later. The older model accomplished this by having no arrow keys at all, which was a deliberate design choice to keep you from picking at your text or reordering paragraphs, but the Traveler has loosened up a bit since then.arrow keys, but you have to employ the WASD keys, plus the “new” and shift keys, to move the cursor through each character in order to backspace.

The screen size keeps you writing too. While typing on my large computer monitor, I can see many of my previous paragraphs. It's hard to not go back and edit as I work. On the Traveler, I see only a few lines of text at a time. You can't fixate on your lede when you can't see it. The Traveler won't check your spelling for you, either, but you can do that later once you've sent your draft to a Google doc.
