  • Light, Compact, and Perfect for a Romance-Reading Kindle Girlie!
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported
As a Kindle girlie who can’t get enough of romance novels, I got this 16 GB newest-model Kindle as a second device, and it’s perfect. It’s light and compact, easy to hold for hours of reading, and the faster page turns make flipping through my favorite love stories so smooth. The screen is easy on the eyes, even in low light, and the battery lasts forever — perfect for sneaking in a few chapters at night or on the go. With 16 GB of storage, I can carry all my romance novels wherever I go without worrying about space. Overall, it’s sleek, portable, and ideal for anyone who loves getting lost in a good romance. I couldn’t be happier! ... show more

  • A good starter Kindle
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported
This Kindle is small enough to hold with one hand it’s pretty light. The screen quality is really good. Feels like I’m reading a book not a computer screen and I like how they added dyslexia font to all kinds so now I can read a lot better and I like how you can borrow library books, and put it on the Kindle. and the battery life is wonderful for long trips and this kindle is good for taking anywhere, it’s easy to use and the price is not that bad for an E reader perfect for people who don’t want to spend a lot of money for a Kindle. This was my first Kindle until I upgrade it to the colorsoft Kindle. but if you’re not reading comic books or graphic novels, this Kindle is a good one for any one who wants to try Kindle. The only thing I do not like with the Kindle program is the trade-in value sucks. so I just end up keeping the Kindle I’ve already bought. But that’s my only complaint about the Kindle. I get better trade-in for my Apple iPad from Apple but Amazon does not give you a good trade and value towards a new one which is why I hardly ever upgrade, but the book selection is wonderful. You can use it with your local library using Libby Goodreads is connected to it. Amazon needs to look into another program because Goodreads sucks. I like how Kendall gives you encouragement to read every day and it will ask you how many books you want to read in a year and tell you your progress and I really like that and I like how people with dyslexia can now read more comfortably if you just want to read books this is a great starter Kindle ... show more

  • better than the paperwhite!
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported
After owning the Oasis and Paperwhite (10th gen), I can say this is the PERFECT kindle if you're looking for a smaller, lighter and faster kindle. The matcha color is perfect - I know some may not care about colors but this is the best one yet. The size is perfect to put into a small purse (think small Telfar, small crescent Baggu, or shoulder bag type of situation). I don't really notice too much that the screen isn't flush with the kindle so that doesn't bother me at all. You really can't tell that's it's not 100% flushed with the screen (unlike the paperwhites). What I really love is the size and weight - I'm a side sleeper so I tend to do the majority of my reading at night on my side. The compact weight makes it easy to read with one hand only and not being too heavy. You can also cradle this in one hand/palm and I am just a girl. I think the only difference this and the paperwhite has is 1) it's not waterproof 2) the warm lighting which, personally, I don't notice too much since I prefer for it to be on dark mode even in the day. The Oasis had the warm lighting but I didn't see that big huge of a difference. I felt like it drained my battery and I usually try to keep all the settings off to extend my battery. I always have it on airplane mode - so far, I can't discuss much about the battery since I just purchased it this week. I don't think there will be an issue since my 2019 paperwhite will last a couple of weeks with no charge on airplane mode. The price point is also way better than the Paperwhite only at $109 with ads. Sometimes you can catch it on sale for even less (I've seen it at $89 before!!!). So if you're thinking of upgrading or even wanting something new, I say it's 100000% worth the purchase. ... show more

  • Wonderful and love the color
Color: Matcha Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported
I recently replaced my old Kindle with a new one, and I’m really impressed with it. The color is vibrant, and the size feels comfortable in my hand. I also purchased the case, which I like as well. The screen quality is excellent, and the battery life is impressive. The touchscreen is user-friendly, and it’s easier to turn pages than my old Kindle. It doesn’t freeze as much either. I highly recommend this Kindle. It can hold a lot of books, and it’s easy to use. If you’re looking to download books from the internet, you can even use a browser on it. The Kindle fits perfectly in my purse, and I just love it. ... show more

  • Lightweight and Functional
Color: Black Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads
I wasn't sure I would like the light-up screen, but you can really dial-in how dim or bright you want the screen. It's really lovely to use on an airplane, when you're sharing a hotel room and even when your bedside lamp at home isn't super bright. When it arrived, it seemed way smaller and cheaper than any other models I've owned (which is many, many.) After using for a week, I've come to appreciate that it is lighter and smaller. The screen itself is the same size as my last one, but the plastic surrounding it is smaller. I really like the feature that auto-turns on the Kindle when you open the case. I didn't think I would care, but I quickly learned to appreciate this feature. My only beef with this Kindle, as with my last Kindle, is they took away the ability to rotate the screen in any direction a couple of versions ago. I really wish I could rotate this 180 degrees, as my case has a strap to hold the kindle, but the strap position for my small hands would be WAY more useful if I could hold the Kindle upside down. I have to believe that their Kindle consumer base is 50% or more female, but honestly, it does not seem like they test this product with women, because of issues like smaller hands versus case functionality. Amazon doesn't make the case, but it is one of their recommended options. ... show more
