Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a GREAT device - I can't believe I didn't get one sooner!

purchase a cover to go with it and it feels just like you're reading a book

Perfect products with perfect recommendations. I enjoy with kindle. Thank you

Crystal clear and better for reading than any tablet or computer

I love my reader. I love that I can read outdoors, and I can choose the size and the font of the text. I love the new battery life! It is for real. I can go 10 days without a charge; in fact I've never run out of power and had it off the power for 12 days. The only thing I wish, is that it were just a little bit larger. But I love everything else about it. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good reader.

Working great so far. Battery holds a charge much better and longer than old regular Kindle that we had. Best Buy did match lower price that they advertised days after I purchased this one. Very satisfied with product and Best Buy.

Got a Kindle for Christmas and absolutely love it. Great for reading in bed when I can't turn lights on and on my exercise bike. Never thought I would like reading from a screen because I love holding a book, but this is great.

A great price for an e-reader with a great battery life. Love the e-ink too.

Only gave 4 stars because although some things I like better then previous, less expensive Kindle, the previous Kindle had many features that I liked that I can not find on this one.

The Paperwhite was what I expected. It's easy to set up an account, and I can use it outdoors in the sun. Sadly, downloading library books is not as user friendly as I had hoped, but Amazon is in the business of selling books, not lending them.

I can use this device reading whenever I want. I love it so much

Had this device for years. Worked and continues to work as well as I hoped. After all these years and using the latest Kindle devices (Oasis) it does feel a little slower but again this was close to the same price. Worked well enough I’m considering getting the latest Paperwhite. In another interesting color.

I thought I could read from my ipad, was a I wrong! Using this Kindle is amazing and I will never read from my ipad again AND I feel like I am holding a book again, great work!

gift for daughter she has an older kinder doing this for update

If you love to read or want your kids to read, get this device, that's it.

I like that it doesn't glare in the sun. It is very nice to use.

This is my fourth Kindle. I think it is better than my last one.

There is nothing else left on the eink market anyway but the Amazon Kindle. It still doesn't support epub format of course, Amazon doesn't like competition. It is built OK, moderately cheap plastic, but no squeaking at least. Contrast is OK, I had Nook and it is on par. I can't imagine how bad the regular Kindle would be though. This one with 300 dpi is just OK. Scrolling is fast enough, it has integrated vocabulary. No home menu or other physical buttons though, besides the home Kindle one - the UI is not completely responsive when you try to go to your Library, instead home brings you to Amazon Kindle page, where you are overwhelmed with advertisement. My biggest dislike is the volume of advertisement and thus the convoluted interface. It is WAY worse then Nook, which is much more reading-centric. A lot of cheap and free books are available on Amazon, especially with Prime membership. It can be linked to public library for ebooks as well.

I prefered reading actual books over reading digitally, because the screen made my eyes hurt. However, the kindle paperwhite isn't designed like a regular digital reader, it so different. I could read it for hours and my eyes won't hurt.

Easy to read books and it holds a great deal. Ideal to take on a vacation.
