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.

    Love my Kindle. I have read 2 books on it so far. I love that I can read in the dark now without having to keep the light on. I take it everywhere w/ me. It's much easier to hold than a regular paper back book & light weight.

    Love it! I am book lover and with the way prices are, it’s getting harder to shell out $15-$25 bucks per book! Now I just have a monthly fee and have thousands of titles at my fingertips!

    My second kindle. I loved the first one and I have read hundreds of books on it but it got so heavy for me to hold that I had to go to a lighter version.

    I had been using my Samsung tablet for reading but it is quite heavy. I read the reviews about the paperwhite and decided to give it a try. I love it. It is lightweight and turns pages very quickly.

    GOOD: Read in the sun, on the beach, wherever! NOT SO GOOD: it takes a while to get used to how limited/UNcomplicated the use of this product is. We are so used to juggling complicated tech things like our phones and tablets and such, this is so simple that it takes some of us longer to figure out! This was a great buy for my husband and my dad, both of whom are not interested in high tech - and they can take it to the beach and they read out on the porch, etc. Everyone’s happy!

    I love how easy it is to turn the pages, to download books from Amazon, including Kindle Unlimited, and how long the battery lasts. I also got the teal one, and the color is beautiful.
