Customers are saying

Customers commend the Kindle Paperwhite (16 GB) for its portability, overall performance, and amazing battery life. Many appreciate its great size, amazing screen quality, and lightweight design, with some also enjoying the available color. While some find the user interface a little clunky and the price a bit expensive, glare is not an issue for users.

    My husband loves it. His original kindle died and he was worried he wouldn’t like the features of a new one. This is perfect for him and very light weight.

    Great tablet, easy to get library books loaded onto it thru their software. Long battery life and a screen that really feels like reading paper.

    Battery lasts a long time, even reading for hours every night. I think I charged it for the first time after owning for a month. Put off purchasing for a long time assuming it would be hard to figure out, much more user friendly than I assumed.

    Just what was needed. No frills and long battery life. Just books and podcasts. Great distraction from other screens. Sleep easier after using this device compared to phone or tablet.
