Customer Ratings & Reviews

The 2024 Kindle Paperwhite in raspberry has completely elevated my reading experience. From the moment I turned it on, I could tell this device was designed with true readers in mind. The raspberry color is stunning—rich, modern, and unique—adding personality without distracting from its sleek, premium feel. The display is outstanding. The glare-free screen truly feels like reading on real paper, and the adjustable warm light makes a noticeable difference for eye comfort, especially during evening or long reading sessions. I can read for hours without strain, whether I’m indoors, outside, or in low light. Performance is smooth and responsive, with quick page turns and easy navigation. The battery life is impressive—I go weeks without needing a charge, which makes it ideal for everyday use and travel. Its lightweight design and waterproof feature add both comfort and peace of mind, allowing me to read anywhere without worry. This Kindle strikes the perfect balance between beauty, functionality, and reliability. Purchasing it from Best Buy made the experience even better, with quick access and confidence in quality. If you’re looking for a premium e-reader that enhances focus, comfort, and enjoyment, the 2024 Kindle Paperwhite is an exceptional choice.

I bought a Kindle Paperwhite because I wanted to read more books. What I actually wanted was to feel like someone who reads more books. The Kindle delivers on both. It's black. Not "midnight obsidian" or "shadow noir" or whatever nonsense companies are calling black these days. Just black. Like my coffee. Like my outlook. Like the void I was trying to fill with impulse purchases before I decided to become a "reader." The screen looks like actual paper. I don't know how they did this. It's not backlit in a way that screams "I'm staring at a device." It's backlit in a way that whispers "I'm a thoughtful person who makes good choices." I've never felt more intellectually superior while reading a thriller about a woman who finds out her husband has a secret second family in Delaware. Sixteen gigabytes of storage. That's thousands of books. Thousands. I currently have eleven. But I could have thousands, and that's the point. The potential is there. I am one bad night and a glass of wine away from owning every book Oprah has ever recommended. It also plays Audible books. Through Bluetooth. To my AirPods. Which means I can listen to the books I'm not reading while I do other things I'm also not really paying attention to. I've "read" three books this month while doing dishes, folding laundry, and staring blankly at the wall. Productivity has never felt so passive. I'm not saying I retain any of it, but I'm definitely getting through the content. That counts. I've decided it counts. The battery lasts weeks. Weeks. I charged it once in January and I think it's still going. My phone dies if I look at it wrong. My laptop is basically a corded device at this point. But this Kindle? This Kindle has the energy I wish I had. It's in better shape than me. It's waterproof. I haven't tested this because I'm not a sociopath who reads in the bathtub, but I appreciate that the option exists. If I ever become the kind of person who "takes baths," I'm ready. The best part? No notifications. No emails. No "breaking news" about something I can't control. Just words. On a page. Or in my ears. In order. The way God intended before we all got phones and forgot what silence felt like. I bought this thing to read more, and now I read more. Or at least listen more. That's it. That's the review. It does what it says it does. In 2024, that's basically a miracle. Would absolutely buy again to continue pretending I'm the kind of person who finishes books.

The kindle itself is great! It has a long battery life, quite a bit of storage, it's slim and easy to take on the go. All around I like it. The only reason I've knocked it down to 4 stars is because I wish the shop was easier to navigate like it is on my phones kindle app, and I wish I was able to archive books instead of fully deleting them where i'd have to re-buy them if i wanted them back.

I absolutely love this Kindle Paperwhite! The screen is clear and easy on the eyes, even when reading for long periods of time. The adjustable lighting makes it perfect for both daytime and nighttime reading without any strain. The battery life is amazing — I don’t have to worry about charging it constantly. It’s also lightweight and easy to carry, which is perfect for busy moms like me who like to read on the go or during small quiet moments. I also love how easy it is to download books and keep everything organized in one place. It has helped me get back into reading more consistently, and I use it almost every day. Overall, this has been one of my favorite purchases and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys reading or wants a convenient way to carry their library anywhere!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect for mobility and everyday inspiration I absolutely love my new Kindle, mainly because of its mobility. I still love and collect paper books, and that will never change—but physical books come in different sizes, can be heavy, and get worn out easily. When I traveled with books before, I had to protect them in plastic or document folders. The Kindle is different. It’s slim, lightweight, and incredibly easy to carry anywhere. The battery lasts a long time, which I really appreciate, and it’s always with me—traveling from room to room almost like my phone. What I love most is how instantly accessible knowledge becomes. Whenever I get an idea, I can act on it right away. Recently I wanted to research a topic like thyroid health, and I found a book and saved it to read later. Then I became interested in emotional intelligence and started researching books for my next read. Any idea that comes to mind—I can explore it immediately and keep it handy. At first, I thought I’d just test the Kindle for a while and possibly return it. But now I know—this device is staying with me. It’s truly amazing, and I genuinely enjoy using it every day.

I love my kindle so much! Lighter and convenient, the battery last at least a week for me, and the warmth feature does wonders for when I have migraines. I love the size and couldn’t recommend the paperwhite more.

Works great and haven't had to charge it once yet! The pink color is so pretty and was worth the wait!

This is by far the best electronic book I’ve ever used. I recently took it with me on a cruise, where there was a great deal of sunshine, and the pages seemed just like that of a book. This Kindle being compact makes taking it with you easy and not a burden at all. I would highly recommend this Kindle to anyone who loves to read in any environment. This Kindle is versatile as well in that you can download books from Kindle or other places like good reads.

I was apprehensive about purchasing a kindle. I loved reading a physical book. When I first got it and started using it I was in love. So convenient and I can throw it in my bag and it won’t get ripped up like a book. I can read in any lighting. If I have 10 min here or there waiting like picking a kid up from a sport I can pull it out and read. Keeps me in my spot no need for book marks. Oh and sooo many cute cases.

Such a game changer! I love my Kindle Paperwhite so much. It allows me to read easier and have access to my books so easily! I can just toss my Kindle in my bag no matter where I’m heading and it barely takes up any space at all. I love that the font size and brightness are customizable as well. I have my brightness very low to allow me to read in bed at night, and even when I’m reading outside in the bright sunlight I never have to adjust the brightness - it just makes the screen look even more like book pages. Another feature I love is how it estimates the remaining time in a chapter as well as the estimate to finish the book! I purchased a clear case which has allowed me to put stickers on the back as well as a pop socket and I love it. I am obsessed with my Kindle Paperwhite!!!

My first kindle and I am adjusting really well. It is easy to use, has a great battery life and quick charge. What more can I say it brings a story to me in a moments notice and plenty of storage.

Holds countless books, I only have to charge it every couple weeks, and its waterproof?! Seriously, just buy the Kindle Paperwhite and you won't regret it. I always said I preferred the feel of a book but this has changed my mind. Less wrist strain, more privacy when reading in public, and backlit screen eliminating the need for a book lamp at night allow me to read more than ever! Plus you can make your own cover inserts to personalize your Kindle.

I recently purchased the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (11th Generation), and it has completely transformed the way I read. The glare-free display feels just like real paper, even in bright sunlight, and the adjustable warm light makes nighttime reading incredibly comfortable. Battery life is one of the standout features—I can go weeks without needing to charge, which is perfect for travel or long reading sessions. The device is lightweight and easy to hold for extended periods, and the waterproof design adds peace of mind whether I’m reading by the pool or in bed with a cup of tea. I also love the seamless integration with the Amazon Kindle app ecosystem. Syncing across devices is effortless, so I can pick up right where I left off on my phone or tablet. Overall, this Kindle is perfect for anyone who loves reading without distractions. It’s compact, powerful, and delivers a premium reading experience. Highly recommended!

I recently bought a 12th gen Paperwhite to replace (supplement, actually) my 11 year old Paperwhite that had developed some kind of "tear" on the light emitting part of the screen that made reading at night a bit irritating. I spent the extra $20 after I purchased the new PaperWhite to be rid of the cover advertising that Amazon never gets right for me. Not a big fan of interplanetary romance fantasies, but that's just me. In short, it's really wonderful. The screen is bigger, the resolution is greater, and all functions are peppier. Unqualified recommendation for this device. I use the new control to tint the screen a bit beige to match the settings on my iPhone Kindle App. It joins my previous Paperwhite which I still use with the illumination off (thanks to E Ink), and the Kindle apps on my iPhone, iPad, and Windows laptop. I got mine at the nearby BestBuy because of their very reasonable return policy means I don't have to deal with Amazon Customer disservice. But I won't be returning this gem. One thing I'm wondering about, though. I got mine for $160 (pre no-ad upgrade) and I'm wondering if the newly enacted tariffs will affect the price. I know for a fact that tariffs won't affect the price of Kindle books since you buy them from your country’s Kindle Store, but I believe that the Kindle itself is made in Taiwan. For the record, I also read on the Kindle app on my iPhone, iPad, and Windows Laptop, so that might be the way to go if Kindles get too expensive. But if they're still $160, grab them while you can.

If you love to read as much as I do this is a must!!! My Amazon unlimited sinks to it seamlessly and the battery life is fantastic! I can normally read about 4-5 books before I have to charge it! My only thing is make sure the Bluetooth is turned on or else your phone and kindle won’t communicate the correct page/ books you are on.

I wasn’t sure I was going to like this because I love the experience of reading an actual book but I’m obsessed! It’s so lightweight and perfect for traveling. I can take it with me on a road trip and read multiple books without having to pack physical books in my luggage. It’s so good for reading at night as well if you have a partner that’s sleeping in bed because you can read in the dark. The kindle unlimited subscription really makes a big difference too. 10/10

Light weight. The screen doesn’t hurt my eyes and it’s easy to work.

I love how long the battery lasts! Only charged it once since having it and it’s perfect for books. Everything about it is perfect. From the warmth/brightness on the screen to the amazing battery life.

Absolutely love this! Easy to use and I take it with me everywhere. Battery life is amazing.

I love my new Kindle! It's everything I had hoped it would be and more. It's lightweight, easy to read, and easy to carry on flights without the bulk of an actual book. I still love real books, but this has transformed traveling and keeping my love of reading going while on flights.
