    This is my first Kindle reader. I've been using my computer, tablet, phone, etc... for years. Now that I have the kindle my eye's don't get tired from reading it. I can read more chapters before I have to put it down for a break. I don't know why I waited so long to get this reader.

    Love this new toy. I'm able to use my computer to send PDF's of RPG papers, etc to my kindle and read them during game. I can borrow books from the library online and send them directly to my kindle through Amazon or Overdrive. Takes a bit to set up all the services, but it's great

    Bought this for my wife. She subscribes to several financial publications that use graphs. They don't work well on our old 3rd generation Kindle and she hates reading on her iPad. This Kindle Paperwhite is great. It displays the graphics perfectly but keeps the reading experience pleasant.

    Great purchase. Dimmable screen and character spacing makes it easier to read longer with my light sensitive eyes. This was my second kindle (the first bit the dust after a fall from a very tall height) and syncing my previous purchases and account was almost effortless.

    I don't usually like reading on computer/tablet screens, but the screen for this Kindle feels a lot more like paper. Works well, and the battery life is great. It would be nice if there were some better organization options for books, though.

    The Kindle Paperwhite is great for reading anywhere, even at the beach! You can also read it in bed with the lights out so you don't disturb anyone else. I absolutely love it! I have a Kindle Fire, an iPad, and a Samsung Galaxy 4 and the Kindle Paperwhite is far better than any of those for reading!

    I was tired of trying to read my books on my regular kindle fire or my phone and NEVER being able to do so because the screen was too dark or glare was to strong.This is my 3rd kindle and I love it the best! perfect indoors or outdoors. Small and compact. Fits easily in my purse or tote.

    I bought this as a Christmas gift for my sister, and she can't put it down. Battery life is great, and she has found so many great books to read at great prices, and even some free titles she is excited to start reading. It is smaller than I expected, but that makes it easier to take on trips.
