As an alternative, I am extremely satisfied with the A5X from Ratta Supernote. The latency when writing is as good as the RM2. [0]: https://supernote.com/
You're satisfied with a device that is accepting pre-orders and hasn't shipped yet?

You prefer China (presumably here we mean the CCP) to any American corporation, because some American companies have done the moral wrong of sometimes folding to the CCP? Seems a bit inside out.
There only exists one official China on this planet...
> because some American companies have done the moral wrong
Do we really wanna talk about all the wrong American governments and/or corporations have done in the past 75 years?
Or how many resources they depleted while large parts of the World were barely surviving?
Are you sure?
Looks great but I have trust issues. I would consider if it didn't have microphone (it has 4) and if it supported working offline.

Looks nice. Is there a way to use your own sync instead of theirs?
I haven't used their cloud offering.
With all the events happening right now I find it really hard to justify buying products made in China/Russia/Belarus. This product looks great, but I'll never have a clean conscious knowing my money is by extension financing terrorists.
Why are you lumping China with the actual invaders? There's the Taiwan mess, and China don't participate in the sanctions regime, but it's not the same thing as actively invading. ( For the record, i think that sanctioning Russia is the morally correct thing to do)

ROC an PRC agree on that at least.

I don’t understand; China is not taking part in the “events happening right now” (assuming you mean invasion of Ukraine); the global boycott focuses on Russia (and to a lesser extent on Belarus).
All the news cycle becomes a tangled mess of "being upset at things", it doesn't really matter if these things are verifiable or not, the broader apparatus benefits either way so long as you become irrationally upset

They are committing genocide, run concentration camps and forced labour. They actively threat Taiwan. That's more than enough to justify avoiding them.
