Larger Rings: The Notebook Cover Upgrade You Didn’t Know You Needed

Today I’m unboxing the MeePlus Slimpad A5 with the larger 16mm rings and sharing my honest first impressions. I specifically chose the 16mm ring option for extra capacity, and I’ll be comparing it directly to my beloved A5 Plotter to see which one truly deserves a spot in my daily routine. MeePlus reached out to me for my thoughts, and. I agreed to take a look, as long as I can give my honest feedback, and they were ok with that, so that is the goal. I am going to use this in place of my desk Plotter for a bit, and then also try it as my ink swatching notebook as well, as I believe that is where the larger ring option will fit into my current setup the best.

Alongside the cover, MeePlus included some blank planner pages as well as a pack of blank Crena Spark paper that I will also put through my normal paper testing process which I will show when I do a followup video after I have had a chance to actually use this notebook cover.

The cover I was sent is the MeePlus Slimpad in A5 in Black Pueblo leather. The accessories that were sent with it are the lifter board with the larger size pen loop that also has the elastic strap on it.
