    • First impressions, should you buy one, and how to save money
Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Digital Storage Capacity: 8 GB Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported Color: Black
OK, I fouled up with my Kindle Paperwhite 11th edition purchase. It was Prime Day and the Kindle was marked WAY DOWN, and I opted for the bundle: Kindle + Charger + fabric cover. Now don't get me wrong, the Charger is nice and the fabric cover is very nice, but for a device Amazon says you only need to charge 5 times a year, getting a premium charger doesn't really make much sense. I already have plenty of chargers, and the Kindle will charge overnight whether I use their super-fast premium charger or something else. And while the case is undeniably nice, you can get one for less than half the money from other sellers on Amazon. I did not make the mistake of getting the ad-free version. The ad appears on the lock screen and as soon as you swipe the screen, it goes away and stays away for your entire reading session. It's 100% unobtrusive. Other people have given the Kindle one star because they bought the ad-free version, and were angry there are still "suggestions" on the Home screen that they consider ads. All I can say is that you get that no matter what, and the solution is to switch to the Library screen rather than the Home screen; that's very easy on the latest software version. The other huge mistake I made over 4 years ago was subscribing to Kindle Unlimited and somehow not knowing that it was automatically renewing silently every month (for $9.99). I paid enough to buy several Kindles. I guess I thought it was part of Amazon Prime or just something that comes with a Kindle. You can bundle Kindle Unlimited "Free" for 3 months with your Kindle purchase, but just watch out when that 3 months are over. I have generally found Kindle Unlimited books second rate (with a few exceptions). I bought one of the original Kindle Fire versions and the first Kindle Fire HD. They were cool, but I didn't end up using them much. They didn't have good battery life, they were hard to read outdoors, and Kindle software on other portable devices was fine. I think the first one eventually failed, and I gave the HD away to someone who needed to do something that required a Kindle. I have a nice Windows tablet. But I have always wanted a Paperwhite because of its long battery life and superb readability outdoors. Plus it was heavily discounted on Prime Day and I bought one. So how did it live up to expectations? Pretty well. The "10 weeks" battery life claim seems exaggerated, but still if you pick it up to go somewhere, it will probably be charged and last another day. Outdoor readability is simply amazing. After receiving the device, the software updated. I think it updated twice. My "Experimental Web Browser" turned into the "Web Browser" and the navigation improved markedly (addressing issues I read in other 1-star reviews). The web browser is still very limited and doesn't display some web pages correctly (like the Internet Archive), and error messages still mention the "Experimental" browser. You can't access YouTube, for example, Twitter doesn't seem to work at all, and the New York Times is not readable. On books, three-level table of contents don't work on the Kindle, although they work on Kindle for PC. I had a very good experience emailing a PDF document downloaded from our local Planning Commission to the Kindle. Things you send to the Kindle arrive very fast. Amazon did, however, require me to verify myself as a sender before it would deliver email attachments to the Kindle, even though my email address is on the approved senders list at Amazon. Also plugging the Kindle to a PC lets you drag and drop supported document types (notably MOBI and PDF) to the Kindle where the immediately appear in your Library. The Send to Kindle for PC app is currently broken as reported by me and others on Amazon forums. The device is somewhat sluggish in general with a 1-second delay for most things: swipes, scrolls and navigation. That's certainly not something that would interfere with reading a book. There are so many different ways to navigate, that it can appear jumbled and confusing, plus the software updates I got changed everything, making me re-learn the UI. I think in the end that I will be accustomed to it and it will appear more natural. One severe limitation is that you cannot play audio files in general. While it supports Bluetooth headphones for books from Audible, it cannot play music or audio books in general. (I hope this is enhanced in a future software update.) So should you buy one of these? If you want to sit outdoors under a tree or at the beach for hours on end reading a book, a Kindle Paperwhite makes a lot of sense. The reading experience is good, it's visually sharp and the charge lasts a long time. If you want to listen to music, or do much of anything else you can do on a phone or a tablet computer, you're out of luck. ... show more

    • Mostly Pleased but Small Things Annoy
Option: Without Kindle Unlimited Digital Storage Capacity: 16 GB Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported Color: Denim
I don't like upgrades. Every time I'm forced to get some new piece of electronic equipment, I dread the experience. I still haven't switched to Windows 11, even. Tried it once, couldn't delete it fast enough! You have to understand, I've only had one Kindle, and it's about 12 years old. I took good care of it, and had to replace the battery once, but it still worked. Sort of. But turning pages took longer and longer. Often, it took so long, poor Kindle would just send an error message and give up. I wasn't even able to open some of the newer books. The replacement battery was losing its ability to hold a charge. Even worse, my Kindle case was literally falling apart, but my Kindle was so old, I couldn't find a replacement. So when I could postpone the inevitable no longer, I ordered the 11th Generation Paperwhite. When it came time to actually make the purchase, my palms sweated madly, but discovering the 16G was on sale—making it cheaper than the 8G I'd decided was more financially affordable—cheered me right up. Getting a trade-in that equaled one payment, and receiving a gift card that pretty much covered the cost of a new case, made it even better. The new Kindle arrived on time, and I was actually excited to try it out. There was just enough power in the battery to set it up before it needed charging. I'm quadriplegic, so the touch screen was a welcome change. I worried I'd be constantly swiping and wearing out my arm, but a tap is enough to turn pages. I like the lighted backscreen, which I didn't have before, and the wider size is easier for me to hold. Someone complained about the edge being too narrow to hold on to, but that's what the cases are for. I wouldn't recommend trying to use this product without a case to cover it. Not only does it protect the Kindle, but it makes it much easier to hold. I really love the way this Kindle sleeps when I close the cover, and wakes when I open it. I'm clumsy from nerve damage, so I sometimes touch the screen by accident, causing it to skip pages. But this device is so fast, I find my place again without difficulties. That was one of the things I worried about, before the purchase, but it's not a problem. What I don't like: the clock down in the bottom left corner. I turned it off, and when I briefly looked at another book, it turned back on again. When I turn something off, I want it to STAY OFF. And if I don't like it for one book, then I don't want it on any books—but you have to turn off each book separately. And apparently, if you leave the book for any reason, then you have to turn it back off, AGAIN. When you've got issues with hands/arms, any extra click is too much. Let me turn it off in the device for ALL books, please, not just one book at a time. The other thing I hate is the way collections are managed. Before, when I added a book to a collection, that title was taken off the list. Now it stays on the list, so I have to scroll through EVERY book on the list, EVERY TIME. Since many book titles are similar—especially books in the same genres—that gets very confusing, very quickly. Not to mention, it's time consuming. Especially if you own over 1000 books! Just let me add a book to a collection, then take it off the complete list. Maybe you think I want to put it in multiple collections, Amazon, but I'd trade that option for ease and simplicity of use, any day. Also, I can't seem to get the highlight function to work. When I try, all I can get it to do is make a note. I've gone through the Kindle guide several times, and I've also searched online for an answer, but I can't find anything to explain why it won't give me a way to save a highlight. I often highlight passages to read to my sister; I don't want to make notes about them, just read them to her! Overall, I'm very pleased with this product. There are just a few, small annoyances that I'm apparently going to have to live with, I guess. I'd really, really like it if—just once—a new product kept all the good features and only 'improved' the bad ones. It's all about choice. Most of my unhappiness stems from the loss of a choice that I considered crucial. If Amazon had just left those easy little things unchanged, and given me the choice to do things the way I had become accustomed to doing, this would be a perfect product. ... show more
