Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great device to read my e-books. I can use it at home, at the park, at the airport, and anywhere where I can take some time to relax and enjoy the beauty of reading.

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

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

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!

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.

Love this! Lightweight and easy to hold, the screen is great and really does mimic paper really well

Lightweight and all the books on the go made this device really helpful. I like the display and it doesn’t make my eyes feel tired like tablets.

Love this kindle! It is not too big and not too little. Also moves faster than a basic! Don’t think about it and get this kindle!

I love my kindle. Its light weight and holds a charge for weeks. It brought back my enjoyment for reading.

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!

It has a pretty decent amount of storage for books, and it’s user-friendly as well. The pages look like an actual book, but lighter.

Overall the Paperwhite is a good reader - small enough, light enough, easy definition lookups, good adjustments for the fonts, contrast etc. The big negative is the power button on the bottom next to the charging port - just propping the reader against something to read at an angle will part of the time hit the power button...also, the outer shell of the reader is many times too slick for propping it up to read at an angle on a table or countertop without the reader sliding down flat on its back on the table or counter. In my case, I had to get a case that was softer/more friction so it would prop up ok and would also raise the bottom of the reader enough to clear the power button so as not to turn the reader off. I highly suggest moving the power button to the top right side and also incorporate a kickstand in the back of the paperwhite itself

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.

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!

Light and small yet large enough to read easily. Hold a power charge for a long time.

I got this Kindle for my daughter. She absolutely loves it. The best part about it is that it can hold up to 15,000 books which is more than enough storage. It is so light and easy to take with you anywhere you go you can just put it in your purse. It’s easy on the eyes since it is a paper white. I would totally recommend anybody who has been wanting one to get this one.

I absolutely love this device! I love the size in general as well as the screen display size. I love it for travel too, takes up like no room in my bags. I also love how customizable it is in terms of font, font size, where the margins lay, light vs. dark mode, and much more. Overall I would say its definitely worth the money.

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

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

[Employee of bestbuy] Was hesitant at first since I love having the physical copy of the book but after a while i just cant put it down and just how convenient it is to take with you and basically have hundreds of books in something some small. Get yourself some Kindle unlimited subscription and expand your library. Happy reading!
