    The little pops of color are great reading comics or manga. Love having access to books on the go. The kindle is a game changer.

    Good for Focused Reading, Some Features Fell Short

    This is my first time owning a Kindle, so I kind of went all out. I’m not a big reader, but I’m trying to make it a habit, and this device definitely helps with that. The color is very nice, and even my coworker—who has an older Kindle—loved it so much that it made her want to upgrade. That said, I was a little disappointed with a few things. I thought audiobooks would work more like a read-along where you can follow the words on the page, but it feels more like listening to a podcast. I also hoped I could tap on a word and have it pronounced, but the only way to do that is through accessibility mode, which talks nonstop and requires double-tapping for everything. If that mode were customizable, this would be an amazing device.

    I love how the screen is big but it doesnt feel heavy in your hand. I also really love that you can see color and you can make your homescreen the cover of the book you are reading. Lots of great features!

    It is a great version. Very responsive. The low light is really nice too! Its fascinating how it looks and feels like real paper. My fiancee loves it! I do wish it was a little bigger though.
