Customers are saying

Many appreciate the lightweight design and the screen quality, which is described as easy on the eyes. While some users noted minor issues with occasional page-turning inconsistencies and slight lag, the positive feedback on reading experience and value for the price outweighs these concerns.

      Hello Elison! I am so sorry your mother is having trouble charging her new Kindle. I would recommend trying to use a different AC adapter, cord, and even different outlet or a combination of all 3 to see if it isn't a bad power cable or power supply. If that still doesn't work, then there may be something wrong with the actual port in the e-reader itself. I would recommend contacting Amazon Customer Support at 888.280.4331 to troubleshoot further to see what options are available. I hope this helps get your mother back to enjoying her Kindle and that you have a tremendous day! AmazonDevices

      Hi AngelicaR,

      We are sorry to hear that you are not pleased at the amount of titles available on Kindle. You can gain access to more titles with services like Kindle Unlimited which requires a monthly subscription. If you do not want to utilize that service, Libby is a compatible app with Kindle E readers. If your daughter has the Libby app on her phone or another mobile device, you can easily borrow books, and send them to the Kindle, just like a library! Books on Libby must be E reader compatible, but you will be automatically redirected to Amazon.com and choose which device you want to send books to. You can manage content from your Libby and Amazon accounts.

      Hope that helps! AmazonDevices

    This is not a digital kindle and I am not using it. As this is my first time using kindle I thought this was the only one (only option at Best Buy Manchester). I have heard there are digital options, what would be better.

    This kindle is extremely difficult to manuever from screen to screen. It only has one button! It takes a lot of effort to get to the home screen!!!

    I’ve read 4 books on this and it didn’t strain my eyes, quick and easy way of downloading books from the library, battery lasts long but not weeks if I’m reading consistently. Battery has lasted weeks if I read every now and then.

    I bought this to get back into reading. I found myself having a difficult time reading physical books since I'm used to looking at my phone screen. It's been the perfect solution for me personally. It's a simple model, only able to download books to read. It charges fast and there's plenty of setting options to adjust lighting and whatnot so it's easy on the eyes (and you can read in the dark). My only complaint is that when you change pages of a book, there's a stutter like movement so you can see the previous page until it sets.

    I wasn't fond of the lighting on this kindle. Getting back to the home screen was different some days. On a positive note, it was a great size and very lightweight.

    I just bought mine today and already love it! It is easy to use and small! I was expecting it to be a little bigger but I am actaully really happy with the size! I have small hands and it is the perfect fit for me and I would not change anything about it! I started reading my first book already and love not having any distrations come across the screen unlike reading from a phone! I highly recommend!
