Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 16GB (newest model) – 20% faster, with new 7" glare-free display and weeks of battery life – Black + 3 Months of Kindle Unlimited (with auto-renewal)

Absolutely in love with my paperwhite! Its the perfect size. Got a case with a hand loop and now I read nonstop. Its super lightweight and I love how I can see the screen no matter what light I am in, dark, sunshine or anything in-between. I can see at all times! Battery has been going strong and we are on day 8, still over 50% life.

Wonderful e-book reader. The books are very affordable, I have already purchased enough books to keep me busy for a long time and haven’t spent more than $20.00 for all of them. Battery life is great, I charge it once a week just to keep it above 70%. The Paperwhite is easy to read for longer periods of time without eye strain due to brightness. Navigation was a little challenging at first but within a week I had picked up the menus and settings and now have the Kindle customized to my liking.

I absolutely love the new model of the Kindle, after having two of the older models. It’s easy to read in both bright sunlight and darkness. The size is great, as it fits in my bag but is still large enough to comfortably read. It stays charged for weeks on end, and I’ve never had it freeze up on me or need a restart. It’s also very user friendly, and options for fonts, size, and color warmth are easy to find and change.

My old Kindle was around 7 or 8 years old and was getting tired, so I decided to get a new one. This is a lot nicer than the old models. The higher resolution does make quite a difference and is great for reading. Along with adjusting the brightness, you can also adjust the tint from levels of bright white to page yellow. Very nice. I also didn't think I would notice the faster page turns, but I do, it's a plus. And they added some more minor personal options that I really like. Overall, a good buy. Note: I've been happily using the smaller Kindle for years. I paid extra for this 7" model, and it was a very good decision. Technically, it reads the same (font size), but the larger one just allows some white space for a near-book experience.

I received my Kindle PW (Paper White) 2024 yesterday! My Kindle History Up to Current: I was using the previous PW which I loved until losing it on a flight - so I dusted off my 2018 PW, popped on a new case and have been using it again for the past 2 years again. Initially I was holding out for the Colorsoft version. However, when it finally came out the reviews were mediocre to poor. The clincher against my buying the Colorsoft was reading that even in B&W mode, the resolution wasn't as crisp as the standard Kindle PW products. So given the choice between mediocre resolution + mediocre color vs excellent B&W I opted for the 2024 PW. From reading reviews on it across the spectrum here, I admit I had the return already prepared. However, my unit arrived in beautiful condition. Color: The chief thing I was looking for was the complaint regarding predominantly yellow screen with the bottom ‘yellower’ band. Not sure if these were faults with the earlier units. On mine, if I have warmth at 0 and the brightness turned up, the color while not being cool, is about as neutral as possible against physical paper. Dimming to 0 relying on ambient light exaggerates the warmth on the Kindle device especially in my place which uses 2700K warm white light sources. The uniformity on the page is perfect - I have not been able to create the darker color band on the lower screen that several reviewers have reported. I haven't yet taken it out into sunlight. I still find the page color at all spectrums is well within my comfort for reading as with paper books where there are also many variations of white color on the pages under different light sources. Resolution: Before ordering I researched the difference between eink and eink carta as my 2018 PW also has 300 ppi. I can't say there is a noticeable difference in the clarity between the 2018 and 2024 unless I look at it under magnifying glass side by side. The difference is nowhere near as detectable as when I upgraded from my 1st gen Kindle to the 2018 PW. In any case both are acceptable and the 2024 resolution is crisp and beautiful as I expected. EDIT: I finally used this at night in the dark with the brightness set at 8. During the day, the resolution to my naked eye looked about the same as my 2018 PW. At night though, the 2024 PW looks far neater and crisper than the older model, even though both are 300 points (the eink Carta difference at work) Performance: This area is where I could really feel the upgrade. I had no complaints on reading the 2018, but starting, inputting my pin or typing anything in the search area, there was noticeable lag that I was accustomed to since using my first Kindle device. The 2024 has almost no latency; if it does I have a hard time noticing it. Whether keying in my PIN or typing a search, it is now as instantly responsive as typing on my phone or tablet. The page turning is as crisp as advertised, and I’m enjoying the animation. Size, Weight, Etc . Form Factor - I'm still in love! Size - I loved the compact size of the 2018 - almost same as small paperback. While the 2024 is a hair larger, I know I'll acclimate with no problem. It's now about the same as a larger paperback - but much lighter in most cases. I also use it with the Cobak Jade color case - while I love the minimalism of the naked Kindle device, having the stand for me is a must rather than having to hold it. Of course, I remove the case when I want to use it in the hot tub. Power Button Location Jury is still out on this. I really wish they'd move the power button to the top. On all the Kindles I have owned over the years, I'm annoyed when I hold the unit (even with the case) my finger tends to brush the power button putting the unit to sleep while I'm reading! On this 2024 PW, I'm noticing that with the increased width and offset position of the button, this may be enough for me to avoid the problem as I typically hold the unit on the bottom dead center, so I'll reserve judgement until I have used the product more. Overall, while I could have used my 2018 a few more years, the improvements in the 2024 made upgrading completely worthwhile.

I absolutely love my Kindle Paperwhite. It is the perfect size and weight. It fits comfortably in my hands and the screen is always readable no matter the weather, day or night. My only criticism is that the Kindle book shopping experience is abysmal. Typing and navigation about the book store are slow and cumbersome, and it is very normal to have to reboot the device to get it to even connect to the store. The device is nearly perfect. The back end accessing the book store front is not.

I recently upgraded to the newest Kindle Paperwhite, and the improvements are definitely worth it. The 20% faster page turns make a huge difference in the overall reading experience—it feels much more fluid. The new 7" display is crisp, glare-free, and looks fantastic in all lighting conditions. Combined with the battery life that lasts for weeks, this is easily the best Kindle I've owned yet. If you are on the fence about upgrading, I’d highly recommend it!

I’ve wanted an e-reader for several years now and I finally said to heck with it, I’m getting one. I got a renewed one because I like the idea of reducing e-waste. It came quickly and in great condition. Powered on and connected quickly. I use it all the time to read library books and I love it. It’s so small I can slide it in my pocket. Makes reading easy and fun again. Very easy to see the words and is adjustable for those who maybe have trouble. Very reliable.
