    This is my third kindle and so far the best. It is larger but still lightweight. It also holds the charge longer which helps when prolonged reading alleviates the need to plug in to recharge. Also, going to the next page is faster, doesn’t lag.

    I bought this for my Girlfriend and she still raves about this even months later. Very easy to read in the car. She has no issues reading this outdoors in the sun.

    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.

    Got this as a gift for a friend. She loved it. I love mine also. Light weight, can read in sun or bed. Love books but as a senior with arthtitis and aging eyes love this better the majority of the time.

    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.

    Exactly what I wanted. Easy to use, has dark mode, I can read in the sunlight and still see the screen, and its not harsh on my eyes. I love using Kindle Unlimited too.

    I like that it had a USB c port now. The Kindle is also a lot smoother and fast making typing on the keyboard mich easier. The fluidity also makes using the store on the Kindle practical.
