This is the one to get, the Color one above this one for a $100 extra seemed not as sharp when just looking a Black and white pdf, the one under this one for -$30 les was just too small a screen.
I love mine, you can make PDFs side load them quickly using the Amazon Cloud link - when you create an Amazon account and link the reader - just drag and drop your own PDFs on to the browser and they magically apear in the Kindle - battery last for days EPIC LITTLE PDF READER ;)

The Kindle is a 5 star! However, Best Buy not so much! I returned the Kindle and purchased it online through Amazon. Best Buy issued me a faulty e-gift card through my Discover Card rewards. After bringing it to their attention they realized the card number was good but the pin # was the problem. Best Buy claimed they would fix the issue within 48 hours. Unfortunately, weeks have gone by and it hasn’t happened. :( Best Buy & Discover Rewards Program!

Love the never version. Have had my older Kindle for like 10 years. This one feels so premium and nice. Much more zippier and overall nicer screen.

I was previously using the Kindle app on my iPad in addition to the Libby app and swore that was good enough - I love the Kindle library and its wide selection of publications as well as independent reads. I was reluctant to purchase a Kindle as it just seemed like yet another device to carry around when I travel, but I'm so glad I did. I was also happy to learn that I could read my Libby loans on the kindle! The sharp epaper display is crisp, easy to read, fast, and much better on my eyes than the iPad screen. The device itself is also nice and light and the battery lasts forever and when I do need to charge it it uses USB-C so I can use a charger that I already have with me. I couldn't be happier with this purchase!

Bought this for my wife. She's had a Kindle since the very first Fire (that I also bought for her), but lately the backlight has been bothersome to her. She really likes the more passive lighting - it really does look like paper. I need to try it for myself!

The summary did not state this is the Kindle version with ads. I would not have purchased it if I had known that. I also am not a fan of the new Kindle itself as it is not as user friendly than the previous Paperwhite I had that I only replaced because it would no longer hold a charging cable. This one has an awkward power button location, the pages turn with the slightest hand movement, making you lose your place in a book all the time. The search feature is also too sensitive. I also find it does not auto download books quite often. You have to tell it to download, adding a step that did not exist before.

Bought as a gift for the wife and she loves it. Easy to use and best of all she will save space over regular books. The kindle has a long battery life as well.
