Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this for my wife who struggles with reading on harshly lit screens. This mimics the look and feel of paper extremely well and allows her to read in any environment. The screen size is about the size of a standard paperback, which sometimes feels small but adds to the portability. The permanent ads on the lock screen are annoying, but unobtrusive enough to overlook.

Bought this for my brother in law for Christmas. He already has over 200 books downloaded and still has room for more. No glare, easy on his eyes. He lives it!

Excellent buy, love my Kindles. This is a good size, the paper white is much better than the small Kindle I already have, easier to read. And love the color.

Love my Kindle! It’s compact with a long battery life. I also have many book options and have so many setting options. Highly recommend!

Love it. I use it daily and the battery life is great. So easy to use.

I love my Kindle! Took me years to switch to Kindle from reading on my iPad, but I travel a ton, and frankly, the iPad is heavy in my tote bag, and doesn't hold a charge. Since I got my Kindle, I find myself reading more and scrolling less, and that is a win!

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!

Love the size is perfect for reading. Also the screen is really paper white is super crispy and clear no glare at all. Battery life is on point last a long time. Performance is very responsive to touch this is a great purchase.

I considered the color versions of the Kindle e-readers, but found their contrast to be too low for comfort, and opted for this model. I think I'm glad I did...since the text is crisp and clear (in sufficient light, or with the backlight on). Its battery usage is wonderful, lasting typically a week or two with fairly heavy use. My one complaint, so far, at least, besides the gray-scale pictures, is that signing in is frustrating in low light. I normally leave the backlight off, since I typically have sufficient light to read without it. However, when I need to turn on the device (which I have passcode-protected), it turns on the backlight during the initial start-up, but then, inexplicably, turns it OFF when asking for the code. This is very annoying, and requires unnecessary planning ahead to ensure that the backlight is ON at this point (by turning it on, then shutting off the device). The user interface is a little clunky, compared to the Kindle app on iPhone, but since I spend the vast majority of my time with the device simply reading, it's not a major issue.

Love its ease of use. Perfect for storing all my books instead of having physical copies.

love that you can take it anywhere. super affordable and small so it doesnt take up much space. use this daily.

I love reading but was tired of paper books or reading on my phone. This device was great. I use the night mode as well and its much easier on the eyes than the ipad or phone. The battery lasts a long time, and there's tons of custom covers out there to be had. The only thing I wish it had was a "left hand" version or the ability to turn it upside down and hold it with the cover on the other side. Otherwise, 10/10 would highly recommend.

Kindle Paperwhite is lightweight and easy to hold. It holds a charge for weeks, maybe months and it’s easy to read. I’m glad that I bought it.

I love having this to take with me on trips, as it takes up less space than a book would while containing an entire catalog. The paperwhite look of the screen also makes it feel like I have a physical book which is great for me and makes reading outside much easier than other screens. The screen also does not cause any eyestrain and the night mode allows me to read comfortably before bed

I absolutely love my new Kindle. It is light weight, easy to use, and the lighting is adjustable!

This kindle is amazing! Super fast, clear screen, and the charge lasts WEEKS!

I love my new Kindle. I can adjust the font size and brightness of the screen so that i can read longer without my eyes getting tired. Stays charged for a long 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.

I read for several hours per day, nearly 365 days per year. This device has made it exponentially easier to accomplish my reading goals. I love the color temperature adjustment, I prefer a softer lighting at home and a cooler tone at places like the airport. Super portable and lightweight, this thing is great to travel with! The text is crisp and clear, and I've never had any issue with shadowing if the screen is left on for too long. 10/10.

A great Kindle.. exactly what the the wife wanted !! If your looking for something on the go that has a digital library this is the item for you ! Great battery life and nice and slim design allows you to easily carry it on the go
