    My wife loves this! It lasts forever on charge and is super intelligent. You can touch words and it gives you insight if you don't understand the vocabulary. Such a good gift!

    Ordering my Kindles from Best Buy online was very easy. The checkout was smooth, very quick shipping, and was packaged well. I bought two, one for myself and one for my daughter, and we’re both very happy! The screens are clear and easy to read, friendly to use, and the battery lasts forever! I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience!

    I love it. I have light sensitivity, and looking at a regular iPad screen hurts my eyes too much, but I don’t have to worry about it with this Kindle. It is so easy to use and is user-friendly as well.

    The kindle paperwhite is my favorite way to read. It’s light weight. Holds a battery charge for a significant length of time, and fits in my purse so I can read wherever I am!

    My daughter was hesitant at first use one instead of a book. But my daughter loves it for travelling and reading. the screen is easy to read, she can connect to her library, a plethora of download options. It takes up less room in her luggage than a book. As an avid reader, she felt it was a wonderful gift. worth the money.

    I had a very old Kindle that took forever to charge and then lost charge very quickly. This new one is fantastic, I have read 4 books, charging one time but it was not dead then. The touch is great. Background makes reading easy in any light. I wish I hadn't waited so long to upgrade.

    Excellent reader but covers unavailable

    This is an excellent reader. When selecting a cover online, make certain it will fit the 2024 model. Kindle has recently changed the dimensions so the covers that fit models as recently as 2022 do not fit in 2024. BestBuy apparently does not have an appropriate cover for this year's model. I had to go to Amazon for a cover - which is annoying!

    Text is very clear and easy to read in bright sunlight. It is responsive to the touch and a perfect size to hold in one hand. The font, line spacing and letter size are easily adjustable. I probably won't pickup another hard copy again.

    Awesome product, ordered for my daughter. Lightning fast compared to my 1st generation paperwhite. Considering upgrading mine eventually with the same at a later date even thought my original still works well.

    I love my kindle! I was a physical book girlie for the longest but the lightweight kindle versus a big heavy book is really nice! I also don’t need a light to read at night when I can’t sleep! So double win!!

    Purchased for my daughter to read more without having distraction of other apps on a tablet; this is great as a standalone device to focus on reading. Very portable, good battery life, and my daughter is pleased.
