    If you are wondering if it’s worth it, don’t wonder more. It is! Super light, beautiful resolution, and the amount of customization is perfect. Very portable. One good cover and you are good to go. I only dislike the ad screen when not in use. It’s an Amazon thing.

    As someone who likes the feel of a physical book in their hands, I never thought I would like a kindle as much as I do. With the warmth and brightness settings available, this is as close to the look of a real page as you can get.

    I used to only read physical books. My wife and I each got a kindle for the holidays - wanted to reduce time spent on social media and read more. This helped big time! Fantastic battery life, the display is easy on the eyes and makes for easy nighttime reading. Light, a case helps make it portable. I have no complaints!

    I switched from a Nook Glow to the Kindle based on my daughters recommendation. It is bigger, yet lighter. It's so much easier to use and the battery lasts a long time. I love it.

    This is my sixth Kindle - and so far my favorite. I love the raspberry color, the battery life and the improved software making it easier to navigate my books. I chose Best Buy to buy my new kindle because they had the best price and the bonus of in-store service.

    The Kindle Works great! It is very handy to read and enjoy reading books in a new handy format. Looking forward to taking it along on vacation to take out on the plane or on long drives or hotel stays. It also bought the matching case and it compliments the Kindle nicely.

      i KrystalP,

      Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that your daughter loves her new Kindle Paperwhite in Jade—what a fantastic Christmas gift!

      It's great to know that the Kindle performed beautifully during her flight, allowing her to finish two books while still having plenty of battery life remaining. The Kindle Paperwhite's impressive battery life (lasting weeks on a single charge with typical use) makes it the perfect travel companion, whether for long flights, road trips, or vacations. Plus, with 16 GB of storage, she'll have room for thousands of books to keep her entertained on all her future adventures.

      We're so glad the Kindle is already proving to be a hit with your daughter. We hope it continues to bring her many enjoyable reading experiences wherever she goes!

      Happy reading! AmazonDevices

    Amazing battery life!! I have had my kindle for about six months now, and read an average of 4 hours per week…I think I’ve only charged this one or twice!

    WAY BETTER than my 2017 Paperwhite. So good I got a second one for my wife. Easily the best way to read a book, whether you're out at the beach (glare-free), snuggled up on the couch (easy to handle with one hand), or laying in bed with your partner asleep (can adjust backlight, so no need for lamp)!

    Excellent value and performance I’m extremely pleased with the Shokz OpenFit 2 true wireless earbuds. The price is very reasonable for the quality you get. Sound quality is clear and well-balanced, and they perform great for music, calls, and everyday use. The fit is outstanding—comfortable and secure without causing ear fatigue, even after extended wear. They’re easy to use, connect quickly, and stay in place during activity. Overall, an excellent product that delivers on price, sound, and comfort. Highly recommended.
