Works great and fits in my hand perfectly. I had a kindle before and loved it. This one is smaller and more compact. Fits in my purse perfectly!

This kindle is super light and super easy to use. It feels like it runs fast than the regular kindle but that maybe just be me. Plus it’s an awesome green

I absolutely love this kindle. The color is adorable, it’s super fast, and just the right size for me. It’s replacing a kindle that is over 8 years old. I couldn’t ask for a better product. I do wish it had warm light but that really isn’t a deal breaker. I would 100% buy this kindle again.

This is my first Kindle and it's amazing! For context, I wasn't looking for anything more than a lightweight device to read books on so this was perfect. I did look at the other Kindle models but really wasn't interested in the other features offered. The color is truly unique and I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase.

This lil guy is awesome! Holds a ton of books, and it’s pretty easy to download pdf or epub files and transfer using the send to kindle website.
It’s weighs barely anything and the backlight allows you to read just about anywhere.
This kindle pairs nicely with a good glass of wine.

It works well. It is only slightly smaller than the Kindle paperwhite, but I find the size to be fine and definitely worth paying less for this Kindle.
I especially appreciated the fast home delivery from Bestbuy.

Lightweight, almost weightless without a case on it. Battery life is very long lasting, and screen action is very smooth. Great for a first time kindle user. I’m glad I made the purchase, it makes the most sense to get the base model because it’s not just another table or screen Ike your phone and other devices. It’s a refreshing change.

Perfect little reader for distraction-free reading

I bought the Amazon Kindle (16 GB, 2024, Black) and I’m pleased with it so far. I love being able to read without any distractions—no notifications, no apps, just books. The screen is easy on the eyes, even after longer reading sessions, and the adjustable lighting makes it comfortable to use in both bright rooms and at night.
The size is a big plus for me. It’s small and light enough to hold comfortably in one hand, whether I’m on the couch or lying in bed. Despite its compact size, the device still retains a substantial number of books with its 16 GB storage, so I don’t feel like I’m constantly having to delete things.
Why I liked buying it at Best Buy:
Best Buy made the whole process really smooth. I appreciated being able to see the device in person before committing, and the in-store pickup was quick and convenient. It’s also reassuring to know that if there were any issues, I could walk into a store and speak with someone face-to-face, rather than dealing with a lengthy online return process. Between the rewards, occasional promos, and reliable customer service, Best Buy felt like the safest place to pick up a new device like this.
Overall, if you want a simple, distraction-free way to read and a device that’s comfortable to hold for long stretches, this Kindle is a great choice.

Got it for my gf as a gift. Has great battery life and a ton of books if you don’t mind investing in Kindle unlimited which is one of my only drawbacks. A decent amount of books are locked behind the $11.99/month paywall. But you do get 3 months for $.99 when you first join. There’s also the option to just download your own books and load them onto your kindle which works just as fine if you’d rather do that. Would definitely recommend if you’re an avid reader

It is very lightweight. I have an older kindle & I am amazed at the difference in weight. It is much easier to hold. It is smaller than my older kindle but the screen size is a little larger. It makes it very easy to just slip in your purse or pocket and take it with you. I like the new color too.
