    I thought this was a Christmas gift in 2020 for my grandson for Christmas and I think he has used it every single day since then. Reading is a lost art anymore and I'm so glad that the Kindle Paperwhite give him a love for reading.

    The Kindle is an excellent quality product which has meet my expectations. The size is just perfect and the font size, clarity and style make it easy to use. So far my eyes after each use feel the same as if I were reading a paper book. I would recommend this product.

    Bought this as a gift as I already have one. My daughter loves it! It is the perfect size to keep in her purse. She always has a good read available when caught in a waiting room or sitting in the car waiting on a son to finish ball practice. Also great to read in bed without bothering her husband.

    I totally enjoy reading books in the kindle. Especially in the wee hours of morning when I can not sleep. Much less strain on my eyes and put it on dark mode, you don’t have to worry about waking your spouse. The only thing I wish it had was a head jack.

    Bought the Kindle to reduce the number of paper books I need to carry around for school. Found I could download many of my schoolbooks at significant savings...so it has already paid for itself. Easier to load and carry my personal reading materials when I'm traveling.

    We got this for grandma, and she has hardly put it down since she got it. She isn’t used to a lot of technology, but she learned to use this quickly. The screen is easy to read in all different lighting situations. I just wish it had the text-to-speech function (Like the Fire) so she could listen to books a little more easily. At least it works well with Audible with a Bluetooth speaker.

    Bought this for my mother-in-law, who has macular degeneration. She loves to read romance novels, but gave up a few months ago, due to her deteriorating vision. She’s now able to read again with the large fonts available on the paperwhite. Love this product.

    i have always avoided the kindle and never had any interest whatsoever. As I've started trying to build a collection of books I realized the major downside of how much space they take up...broke down and ordered this new 10th anniversary kindle. I recommend it just to save space alone, well worth it, especially for a traveler.

    I was really hesitant about buying this for some reason, but I'm so glad I did. The battery life is amazing! My eyes are really sensitive to blue light phones, computers, and regular tablets. However, with this I can read for hours with no issues at all!

    I like to read a lot and resisted e Books for a long time, but the kindle is just too convenient. The new waterproof version makes it nearly perfect for those who enjoy reading in the pool or beach.

    Absolutely in love with my kindle paperwhite. I work at a hospital and it’s great to have for downtime. I’ve already read 2000+ pages. Best Buy was super helpful and actually the only store that had one in stock.

    I used a Nook for years, but it was starting to malfunction, so I decided to try the Paperwhite. The biggest thing I like is how light it is, but all of the functionality is great too. I especially like how it gives % of completion.

    I really don’t know why I waited for long to get this kindle, I love to read books and love to be outdoors but hated the fact that the sun, wind and other elements would interfere with my reading. All my problems disappeared with this kindle, Iove it

    Great screen but VERY unreliable. It’s hard to charge and needs to be rebooted once a month. The UI is HORRIBLE. It’s no wonder that Jeff’s Blue Origin is a failure, they can’t build hardware.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
