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.

    The kindle makes reading enjoyable again. You don’t need a light, can make the font as large as you want. Fits in a fanny pack so it’s great for travel. Love it

    Awesome product, ordered for my daughter. Lightning fast compared to my 1st generation paperwhite. Considering upgrading mine eventually with the same at a later date even thought my original still works well.
