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.

    Great battery life. Annoying to add books to or manage libraries.

    I bought this for my 7 year old who was constantly stealing mine. She loves it. The only thing I'm disappointed about is that her Kindle screen is a 7" and I bought mine when it was only 6.8" so now I feel a little cheated.

    My daughter had to replace her previous kindle, and she got this one. She loves it. Her previous kindle was an older model, so this one does have some new features.

    Perfect gift for my daughter!! She's extremely excited because her old one she had for years was not holding up. This is exactly what she asked for and she's constantly reading books and needs a fresh start.
