  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing – I Use It Every Day!
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
I cannot say enough great things about this Amazon Kindle! It’s lightweight, compact, and incredibly comfortable to hold for long reading sessions. The adjustable front light makes it perfect for reading in any lighting condition, whether I’m outside in the sun or reading in bed at night. The battery life is unbelievable—I go weeks without needing to charge it, even though I use it every single day. With 16GB of storage, I can carry my entire library with me wherever I go. No more lugging around heavy books! The screen is crisp and easy on the eyes, making it feel just like reading a real page. If you love reading, this Kindle is an absolute game-changer. It’s perfect for travel, commuting, or just relaxing at home. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing e-reader! 📖✨ ... show more

  • I love it, I love it, I love it.
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported
I'm a long-time Kindle user. The first model I owned was the fourth generation $79 model back from 2011, then I had the 2015 Kindle Paperwhite and owned that for several years. I decided to upgrade to the latest 2022 basic model, and I have to say that this is my favorite Kindle I've owned to date. Initially I was going to settle on one of the newer Paperwhite models for their larger, 6.8" display but I didn't really like the material that the screen was made out of. It felt too cheap and looked too glossy, and the flushed screen design didn't appeal to me so I brought it back. It felt too much like a small tablet and not like a simple e-reader like my older Paperwhite did. I then considered getting the previous basic Kindle model from last year but the 168 DPI screen didn't appeal to me, so I chose this one instead once I found out about it. And let me just say that for the record, this is absolutely worth every dollar. It's essentially a basic entry-level Kindle model, with upgraded features that you would have seen on an older Paperwhite such as the 300 DPI screen resolution, and also USB-C charging which is fantastic because that doesn't break as easily, and the text looks sharp and crisp. The responsiveness is just about flawless and battery life is as good as it's always been, especially if your backlight isn't too bright and you have airplane mode on. While the screen size is standard, the body of the device is trimmed down to give it extra portability factor, making it perfect to fit in small bags or purses. If you think about it, this Kindle model is kind of like a mini Paperwhite. You might not have extra features such as a slightly bigger display and backlight color temperature settings, but I don't ask for too much out of a simple e-reader and the upgrades from previous generation models is so worth it. One thing that I would absolutely recommend is to buy a case for this thing as soon as you get it, or have it shipped with a case. I'm using the official fabric cover case and it's incredibly sleek and keeps my device from getting dirty or scratched up. ... show more

  • WITH PATIENCE, YOU CAN GET A GREAT PRICE! I prefer it over the newest, largest Paperwhite.
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported
(Editing to reflect most recent purchase) I bought 2 more of these Kindles on Prime day, paying $65 each for them. I paid $80 for the first one of this model, which was also a sale price. (When I purchased the first one, I also purchased the newest version of the Paperwhite, which I find awkwardly designed to hold with one small hand. I named that one "Skippy" because of its tendency to jump more than one page at a time. It's a complaint found in many reviews of that model.) I have several older Kindles which have gotten a lot of use. Over time, it seems that they don't hold a charge as long as they did when they were new. I paid extra for the formerly-free 3G capability, which is no longer supported. (I think Amazon should give people credit if they paid the extra $20 or $30 for that feature.) This Kindle and the new Paperwhite use a USB-C charging cable, which I prefer because there's no "upside down, try again" issue. It sounds trivial, but it's a plus, imho. Now I won't have to use 2 different cables, depending on which Kindle I'm charging. I use several Kindles at a time: One in my purse (or 2 if I'm traveling where recharging is not an option). And 3 "scattered" around the house so that a Kindle is always within reach. I've also purchased others which I've given to my kids, loaded with books I think they would enjoy. I'm not sure what makes this model *not* a Paperwhite. It has the features I love/need/use the most (adjustable fonts, adjustable light, built-in dictionary, note-taking capability, etc.). The slight difference in weight is actually noticeable--and appreciated by my arthritic hands. I always purchase a magnetic cover that allows the device to wake up automatically when it is opened. (If you purchase on ebay, you'll find covers that are a lot cheaper than identical covers sold on Amazon.) My original review: It seems as if "they" constantly try to convince us that our devices (cell phones, tvs, computers, watches) are outdated technology. Too small, too large, too "flippy". This Kindle is probably as small as I'd want to go. If I wanted a smaller screen than this Kindle, I'd just use my phone. (The latest Paperwhite is noticeably larger than this device and previous Paperwhites. My preferred technique of holding it with one hand is more awkward with a larger device. It feels unbalanced, top-heavy. The cover is larger, too, of course, which adds more weight. I have arthritis in my hands, so it probably bothers me more than others. If I'm using a Kindle easel or holding it on my lap, it doesn't matter. But for one-handed Kindling, I like this little model. It's my new "travel Kindle".) I miss and resent the loss of free X-G for the Kindles. I paid extra for free 3G on my previous Kindles and it's useless now. It's not a huge hardship, but I have to remember to sync my devices before I leave the house. It can be a nuisance to find my place in my "purse Kindle" when I'm not home. (And Amazon loses out on those impulse purchases that I used to make when I finished a book and felt an urgent need to buy the sequel or something by the same author.) In conclusion, this is my new, preferred Kindle. My Kindle collection will now consiste of 3 of these, plus the larger Paperwhite I call "Skippy". ... show more
