    I'm usually not a bookie kind of person. But reads occasionally. With paper white I got more chance and choice to read. So it helped me to improve my reading habit. A very good investment or gift for anyone of any age

    I am a return customer as this is my 2nd Kindle reader. It performs very well as expected. Now that I have gotten a bit acquainted with this new version I like most of the changes from my older model.

    Do we really yet another review of the device? I suppose not. So here is a comment about my buying experience at bestbuy. In one word a breeze. And that too at a substantial discount, thanks to Visa checkout.

    My old kindle finally bit the dust after about 5 years or so. Had to run out to get a new one right away. Was sad that it cost so much now. My old one was about 1/3 the cost. Worth it for how much I use it.

    I use this daily. It is awesome in that you can read from it in low light, no light, and bright sunlight. It is also very light weight so it is easy to carry with you anywhere.

    I replaced my old paperwhite with this one because my dog chewed it up. This one looks classy in white and has a great variety of fonts and light settings. Very happy with this purchase.

    After my dog decided my last kindle was her new chew toy, I needed to replace or upgrade. I looked at several options, but ultimately decided to buy this kindle again. I made the correct decision.

    This is my first e-reader. It makes reading fun again. With Prime reading and my local library, I have many free reading options available to me. Easy to read in both bright sunshine and in the dark. Get one!

    My wife is an avid reader and loves the Kindle. She has tried other tablets but none are as good as the paperwhite Kindle. This is the one she carries in her purse to pull out read during waits for doctors.

    I love to read but books were beginning to take over my space! This little "baby" is so small and holds a lot of books. Not only that, I can upload a new book any time I want to without leaving my house!

    The paperwhite Kindle is an excellent e-reader. The size, clarity,weight and visual calming screen makes reading most enjoyable. The ability to read outside with no glare is an added plus.

    I bought one once before for my mother and this product is amazing. I recently bought another to replace my girlfriend's Nook. Is amazing how good this e-readers performs, the battery life and versatility.
