  • My Kindle is my baby My Kindle is my baby
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
I used to love reading growing up, but stopped over the years. I didn't have the time, space, or money to get as many physical books, and changes in my health meant reading physical books was much harder than it used to be. I received my Kindle on October 13th and have read 52 books since. I love him, he's my baby. This model is the perfect size and so light and easy to hold. I don't mind the lack of warm light at all. The eink screen is gorgeous and clear. I find the Kindle UI to be simple to navigate, and love how easy Send to Kindle is. The page turning is plenty fast enough for me, I've never felt any lag or delay. It has served me so well over these months, I take it with me everywhere and love sneaking reading in throughout the day. This is, by far, the best purchase I have ever made for myself. My love of reading is back and I have my Kindle to thank for it! If you're on the fence, do it! I got mine on sale, but 100% think it's worth it even at full price. ... show more

  • Perfection!
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
This Kindle is just perfect! It's small and fits easily in my purse. The screen is glare free, so you can read outside in the bright sunshine. It's fast and so clear and holds tons of books and I have A LOT of them. Great price and it's just so cute! So happy with my purchase!

  • Perhaps the most perfect Kindle out there.
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
Love this kindle, perfect for throwing in my bag, pocket, or car for a trip. It fits comfortably in my hand for one-handed reading, and the light isn't obnoxious. The color is great, and I've gotten so much usage out of it. I had a 2018 Paperwhite that was just a bit too heavy for regular one-hand usage. I recently picked up a Kindle Colorsoft and find myself really having to force myself to use it instead of going back to this Kindle for comfort. If it had a warmer light, I would've never upgraded. ... show more

  • So easy on your eyes
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
It's my first Kindle, so I can't compare it to past iterations, but I can tell you it's delightful. Operating it is very intuitive, and simple. The crisp and clear text is just like reading from paper honestly, and it doesn't matter what lighting conditions you're in, it's comfortable to read on. When reading it in a dark room, it's just right- not too dim, and not too bright. In daylight, it's just as easy to see as a document on white paper. It's light, and thin, fits easily into a pocket. The battery life is insane- even though it's backlit, and has a fairly large screen, it's battery can last for weeks. It is possible to drain it in just several days, but that is reading for several hours each day. Also, it charges very quickly. Again, I can't tell you how it compares to other readers as this is my first to own... But I can tell you that it's extremely nice to read on. I was one of those who are reluctant to give up tangible books, who prefers paper over a glass screen. My new Kindle changed my opinion though. It's less bulky than a book, can hold a whole library to take on a cruise, or anywhere, and it really is just as nice to read as though it were printed paper. Lastly, I got mine in the sage green color- it was available in my favorite color! ... show more

  • Great kindle and very user friendly
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
I really like this kindle. The screen quality is excellent. This is a touchscreen with controllable brightness. It feels very lightweight in your hand and very durable. I bought this for myself, but I am sure any book lover would love this as a gift. I like that the size isn’t very large and it fits comfortably just like a book wood in your hands. ... show more

  • Novels = YES BUY mangas = NO BUY
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
If you are a strictly novel reader. Buy this. It will make reading books so easy and quick. If you want mangas buy the paperwhite. Its is better to read mangas on there because your not forcing your eyes.

  • Small but Mighty — I’m Obsessed Small but Mighty — I’m Obsessed
Color: Matcha Option: With 3 months of Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
You can’t tell me nothing—I absolutely love my little Kindle 😍 It’s so cute, and I’ve completely decked it out from head to toe. The size is absolutely perfect. I throw it in my purse and take it everywhere—even quick errands or waiting in the car—and it’s so lightweight I barely notice it’s there. Functionality-wise, this Kindle delivers. The screen is clear and easy on the eyes, the adjustable light makes reading comfortable in any setting, and the page turns are fast and smooth. I love having a completely distraction-free reading experience—no notifications, no scrolling, just books. The battery life is impressive too. I can read for weeks without worrying about charging, and the storage holds more books than I could ever read at once. The only downside is the smaller screen, which might not be for everyone—but for me, the portability makes it worth it. Best for: travel, quick reading sessions, and anyone who wants something lightweight and simple Not ideal if: you prefer a larger screen or read a lot of PDFs/comics If you’re deciding between this and a larger Kindle or an iPad, this is MUCH better for portability and distraction-free reading. Update after a few weeks: still loving it. I reach for this way more than I expected because it’s just so easy to carry around. Great quality, amazing portability, and absolutely worth the investment. 💕📚 ... show more
