    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.

    Enjoy having to be able to read without disturbing my husband at night. And I really enjoy kindle unlimited! I almost never have to buy the book for our bookclub and haul a bunch of books with me.

    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!

    Fast delivery. Arrived in tact and with care. This device is terrific. I love having the ability to read floating in the pool and traveling with multiple books without the weight and space in taken up in my suitcase. Fits well in my purse. I love being able to read in the dark and not disturb my boyfriend while he's sleeping.

    The quality is excellent, the battery drains quickly while adding books but then lasts for weeks, the advertising isn't annoying, and the light is adequate.

    Upgraded my 2020 kindle to this one when I had a gift card. Such a good upgrade! Did not realize how slow my older edition kindle was! I am obsessed with the new one.

    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!

    Pleased with my new Amazon Kindle Paper White ereader. I wanted a newer model because my old Amazon Kindle paper white ereader was not holding a charge. It is slightly bigger than the old one but feels comfortable in my hands. Recommend

    Had been wanting to get a kindle for while but im old achool and love to turn pages. I decided to get one for myself for my birthday and have really enjoyed some of the free books you can get from Prime in addition to the ones I’ve purchased. I’ve read books I likely wouldn’t have read without purchasing the device which I love!

    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.

    The screen is easy on the eyes. It looks like paper. You can change the warmth on it when it's dark to make it easier on your eyes when reading in a dimly lit place. If you like audio books, then it's great to be able to hook up headphones. It is simply a great e-reader!
