    Wife absolutely loves this paperwhite. We had the 2015 7th Gen and upgrading to this was a must for mother's Day. She loves this thing! She has noticed several big upgrades compared to the older, most notably the screen size and clarity. Highly recommend!

      Hello ThomasJ,

      Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that your daughter is happy with her Kindle Paperwhite (16 GB), and that makes us happy too!

      There's nothing quite like seeing a child excited about their gift, especially when it's something that encourages reading and learning.

It's wonderful to know that the device has delivered exactly what she was hoping for.

      We appreciate you taking the time to share your positive experience, and we hope your daughter enjoys many great reading adventures with her new Kindle Paperwhite! AmazonDevices

    The latest paperkindlewhite is really awesome. I used to not read very often on my old kindle, but due to it being so slow and small i didnt read often. This new one is SO fast. It is also bigger and nicer to read on, Ive alrrady read so many books on it, probably around 11.

    My wife loves this Kindle! I bought her this since she's a book addict and cant seem to put them down. This made gifting so much easier since now I can just get her a giftcard to download a book online.
