    Bought this about 7 months ago and I love it! I’ve had no issues with it and bring it everywhere with me. I can read pretty well in the summer sun and love the different features it has for highlighting and different lighting modes.

    A wonderfully updated version of the paperwhite. The adjustable light temperature makes reading at night so much nicer as I prefer the soft white lighting. Much faster than the prior version in terms of page flipping as well. I do believe this is the best e-reader out there. Cheers!

    My wife loves it! Access to her local library database and easy purchases from Amazon. Well lit and has great battery life. Not really sure about the always on Ad that is always present in the screen especially at $150.
