Great purchase
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I bought this kindle because I wanted to be able to read books without distractions. I absolutely love my kindle! It’s so easy to use and so portable. Very very long battery life and I don’t even have to use my phone battery. I like how I can also download books to read offline. Additionally, I really really like the backlight!!! I would definitely recommend!!!!

Amazing!
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.I love this Kindle! Super lightweight and portable, battery life is about a 8.5/10 because when you use even one “bar” of light the battery starts draining quick. Reading a couple hours a day with a full charge lasts me about 5 days before needing a recharge which is pretty good. The screen is matte so oily hands will leave smudges and on the bezels as well. I put a case on mine to protect from damage as I feel like the screen can get scratched/damaged easily in my purse. Overall this changed my life going from physical books to digital, definitely worth the money!

Good basic economy eReader
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I was a little leery of getting a basic Kindle, as so far I have only had Kindle Fires, but I have been pleasantly surprised. My Fires tend to bog down after a while (of course they are pretty old now) so I wanted something basic to use to read. So far I have been very pleased.

Great
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.So far great....broke down after years of debating getting one of these. Im probably one of a few who still like to hold an actual book or even waits for books to get to library! Easy to use. Great price. Fast shipping.

Q: QuestionWhat does ad-supported mean? Is glare free the same as paperwhite? Can this be used outside in the sun and not have glare?
Asked by Ragdoll.
- A:Answer ad supported means the lock screen displays a book title that you may be interested in. As soon as you open the kindle, the ad is gone, never to be seen again (well, until the next time you go to open your kindle) It's not a distraction at all. Sorry, not sure of the answers to the other questions yet.

Q: Questiondoes this include wifi
Asked by ajay.
- A:Answer Hi Ajay, This device needs Wifi to be able to download books. Once they are downloaded to device, the books can be read offline. Wifi is needed, but needs to be provided externally. There are cellular models of Kindle Paperwhites and Oasis that will allow you to not need your own wifi to make this device work. Hope that info helps.

Q: QuestionIs this the Kindle 2019 Model and does it come with an adapter? If not, can any adapter work?
Asked by li.
- A:Answer It is the 2019 version of the regular Kindle, it came with a cord but no plug. I set the cord aside and can't tell which one it is at this point, but as I recall it was a normal cord, meaning a USB-A male end and a micro-USB male end. The Kindle itself accepts a micro-USB male plug, if you are like me you'll have about twenty chargers laying around that will work with it.
