I’ve had multiple kindles. I love it and will always own one. Light weight and compact. The perfect size, holds a charge forever, and is easy to set up and use. Love it.

If they ever stop making kindles, there will be a revolution!!! I recently lost my small paper white that was purchased in 2017 and needed to replace it. I was surprised to see all the new kindle choices they have now. After reading all the reviews and scrutinizing each of the kindle products, I chose the basic one and was not disappointed. The screen is still the same same as the original paper white, but the overall size of the kindle was so much smaller that it now fits in my pants pocket!! Instead of buying a thick case to cover the whole kindle, I was able to purchase a screen protector. It is overall so much easier to hold and read for a long time. It has all the usual Kindle advantages that makes it the quality device that it is....lighted screen from the side instead from the back, easy to read in the dark and bright sunny days, dictionary to find words quickly at the touch of your finger, translation abilities from other languages, wifi and blue tooth connections( ! ), access to the web and use as a browser (not as fast as your computer or cell phone but works regardless if needed), holds thousands of books if you care to, you can take off the ones you read so that it is not cluttered and you have access to all your purchases to download again anytime you want. It is easy to go on to Amazon's site and review all of your books easily and move them around to your other owned kindles for your family. I dont see any reason to get the larger version since it is heavier and bulkier. If you need larger words, you can make the words as large as you want even on the small screen kindle. I am not an employee of Amazon nor do I have any invested connection with them whatsoever except that my wife and I both own a kindle. It is simply the best way to read a book that is pure words. It is not meant for color photos and quick fix articles with tons of images. It is meant for serious book readers...period!! And it's only $99. It's a steal. For those who still say they prefer holding a paper book and the smell of the pages, you need to do what feels right for you. Personally I prefer to drive my 2024 comfortable and fast automobile instead of the old covered wagon. I really don't need the smell of the horses and covered wagon canvas and the feel of the bumpy road under me.

We bought this for our daughter for her first Kindle on her birthday. I absolutely love that while she is reading there is no interruptions of text messaging or anything like that. It's so The performance of this is amazing. It's so easy to use. The screen is the perfect size. It's like holding a book. The quality of this product is great so portable and it's so easy to find a book that you would just fall in love with to read.

I'm a Wheel of Time fan. Have owend paperbacks since the 90s. Traveling with them is not feasible so I asked for a kindle and the Wheel of Time ebook set as a b-day present. My lovely wife agreed and today I received my very first kindle. I am not a conspiracy theorist, and I somewhat understand how stuff is manufactured, packaged, marketted, and shipped out. However, look at the picture I uploaded with this review. Take a closer look! That is not the content on my actual Kindle. That is the packaging my Kindle came in!!! Does Amazon go through that much effort to please their customer base or is this a creepy coincidence? As for the Product, I'll say I'm 5-star happy with it! I was previously reading on my PC and a Galaxy S22. The readability on this kindle is far better experience. No glare, reads like a paperback, lightweight, and long-lasting (battery life)! I'm happy with the purchase. I highly recommend switching to a kindle vs reading your ebooks on a PC, laptop, or smartphone.

I’ve been buying Kindles ever since the second model came out way back in 2009 or so. The Kindle is a marvelous invention that got me reading again and reading 3-4 times as much as I ever did with paper books. I have no romantic notions about paper and glue anymore. I’d go as far as saying the Kindle is arguably the most underrated invention of the early 21st century. But you’re here for the review, so… As for why I like THIS Kindle so much, well, I love the fact that all of the most important features have finally trickled down to the base model. I can afford to buy any Kindle I want and I usually buy one of the middle or high-end Kindles. This one was actually replacing an older Paperwhite, but I wanted to give the base model a try since it checked all the right boxes, aside from color temperature adjustment. The fact that all the best features are present on the base model now makes me feel better about Kindles and Amazon in general honestly. My first Kindle was $399, so I love the fact that this one is so affordable and within reach of a lot more people now. This Kindle also gets the fastest SoC (microprocessor) that the newest Kindles have. That means it’s as fast, or faster than any of the Kindle models. It’s finally got a generous amount of memory for anyone with anything but the biggest book collection. I’ll never fill it up I’m sure. It’s even got the higher dpi (resolution) Paperwhite screen now, so you’re no longer penalized with pixelated fonts or less contrast for buying the entry-level model and I LOVE that. One of my favorite features, though, is that it’s super small and light, which I really love. It’s the smallest, lightest, most pocketable Kindle there’s ever been. That’s a nice feature that makes you more likely to take it with you everywhere. The only things you’re really giving up versus a Paperwhite that I know of are the extra LEDs (I don’t miss them a bit, backlighting is more than enough) and the warmer color backlighting option (nice to have, but I can definitely live without it). This model also has a bit less battery life than the Paperwhite (maybe 15-20% less?) But it’s still a Kindle, which means it will last longer than any other device you own. I doubt the battery life will be a complaint from many. The final feature it’s missing is actually a PLUS to me. It’s the fact that the screen is recessed. I actually prefer that (I can’t be the only one). I like being able to tell by touch precisely where the screen begins. It makes it easier to avoid touching the screen accidentally and I just think it looks better to be honest. The only feature I WISH it had is PAGE TURN BUTTONS. I have no idea WHY Amazon has limited them to only the Oasis models. Other eInk book manufacturers like Kobo managed to find a way to include page turn buttons on nearly every model. Come on, Amazon. I had been planning on buying an Oasis for several years, specifically to get the page turn buttons. But I simply got tired of WAITING for Amazon to make an Oasis with USB-C charging already and update the hardware to match the newer models. I finally gave up on waiting for a USB-C Oasis after I read rave reviews of the new base model and Prime Day rolled around with a price drop on it. I’m super satisfied with it though. Lack of buttons aside, I think it’s my favorite Kindle yet due to the exceptional value, ultra-pocketable size and feature set. This model has everything I think most people really need and want in a Kindle at a very fair price (especially when you buy it during Prime Days like I did!). I also really appreciate the opportunity to buy a Kindle in a color other than black or white for a change. The Denim Blue is cool and different and that’s a feature you cannot get in ANY other Kindle model. Amazon should consider making a few more color choices here and there. I guarantee it would juice up sales. If they just added some sturdy page turn buttons to this, a physical switch to disable the touch screen, the “warm” backlighting option and gave it a bigger battery that’s designed to be easily replaced, it would be the PERFECT Kindle for me. That and I wish Amazon would give us greater control over our Home Screen. I just want a simple list of folders or my collections. I don’t want to see “suggestions” or any eye candy marketing fluff. Minor complaint though. All-in-all I think when you take price into consideration, this is the BEST KINDLE Amazon has ever made, hands down.
