Amazon - All-New Kindle - 6" - 8GB - Black

I've been reading library ebooks on my phone, and decided to upgrade to a Kindle. I got this on sale, I think it was around Prime day, with an additional discount from a Best Buy coupon I got in email. I like that it has a light, but wish it auto-adjusted to ambient light levels. Also, when I come across something in a book that I want to know more about, searching for information is better on the phone app than the Kindle device. For example when the name of a character comes up and I can't remember who is who, sometimes that information is built into the ebook, but sometimes you need a web search, which is easier on a smart phone. However, the kindle is better for reading at night because it's less disruptive to sleep. Also it is lightweight and the battery lasts much longer than a phone, with less opportunity for distraction. Instead of a regular case I got a popsocket which has made holding the kindle in bed pretty convenient. Someday post-coronavirus I imagine I'll want to bring it to work with me to read on breaks, in which case I think I'll look for a protective sleeve for stuffing it in my bag.

I recently purchased the kindle for my Mom for her birthday and while the kindle is a cool product it may be a little old. The processor is a little slow. However the screen is great for reading material in just about any light condition. It’s easy to download material to read.

My first time getting a kindle. I've been reading from an ipad but notice the strain on my eyes. This has been so far the best decision I've made. I'm not a fan of comic books or small text so the PPI was fine for me. I also do not plan to read near water, this is great option for beginners and anyone looking to read novels or books of any kind.

Love my new kindle. Did not really need the light on it, but it’s a nice plus. It was super easy to download from my old kindle!

I absolutely love the functionality of this Kindle. Battery lasts a good amount of time. My recommendation though is to get a case on it ASAP. The back casing is slick and often slips easily out of my hand ( a case helps that). Even though the price was decent, I feel that the Kindle is outdated in features.

I currently have the old Kindle 3g, and my partner was dying for a basic Kindle just like it. He doesn't need any of the bells and whistles, and this was perfect. It is simple, intuitive, and does the job-- a better version of my old 3g. The back lit screen is the perfect update. It's an eReader, perfectly simple and perfect for someone who just wants to read.

Should have gotten one years ago it’s fantastic Take all your books with you wherever you go

So very light and small I like it alot was waiting for one to go on sale and finally did, only thing is it does scratch easier and there's no screen protectors for it. If you're contemplating getting a 6 inch or 8. 6 is fine you're just reading and you can adjust the size so it doesn't matter a whole lot how big the device is.
