    It took awhile to get used (since I had always loved paperback options) but I’ve grown to love my kindle. Especially since the army moved me around so much, I could easily travel with my kindle. Easy to use and convenient. Payment method is simple.

    There’s no denying that this kindle is beautiful!! I was surprised at how sleek and pretty it is. It makes reading 1000% more accessible and fun. It’s the perfect size. I’m reading on all of my walks with my dog, while I make dinner, it’s great!! My only complaint is that the screen is so easily scratched, I mean I have 3 significant-ish scratches that must have been from the zipper on my jacket, or maybe my keys? It happened so fast I couldn’t track it down. I’ll have to get a screen protector to prevent any further harm. Overall satisfied and very happy with my purchase!!

    I love my kindle. I had been debating for a while if I should get it or not because I love physical books but getting a kindle did not stop me from getting physical books so I totally recommend. I did a pickup order with Best Buy and it was ready when I got to the store. I highly recommend, and the price was really good as well. Highly recommend

    Love, Love, Love my new Kindle ❤️. I read my books daily. This particular new kindle is a bit wider with improved space for me to hold it - without my thumbs going numb! I am so happy with my Best Buy purchase. My sales rep was so helpful in getting my kindle set up so I didn’t lose my books from my old kindle.

    Love it. I can read every where I go. I like to keep it in my purse. It’s a convenient size. You can read all the books you like without any of the clutter. Link it with your library card and you can read for free.

    I love my kindle so so much! I bring it with me everywhere I go. I thought I wouldn’t like e-Reading, but I have grown to love it rather quickly. Highly recommend! The only thing I wasn’t too fond of at first that it’s in black and white, not color. If you can overlook that, you’re good to go!

    This product helps you to have access to countless books, and unlike tablets, computers, and mobile phones, it does not harm your eyes. I bought it in a special sale and gave it to my 14-year-old daughter as a gift. Only the price of Amazon books is a bit expensive. and it is better to pay a monthly subscription.

    I LOVE my kindle!! I use it every day to read my books. The only negative i have is having to pay to not have ads on the lock screen and paying for a kindle subscription monthly while still having to pay a price for books.

    If you’re a huge book worm like me, buy this. Best decision I ever made. I have severe carpal tunnel syndrome which worsens whenever I hold a physical book for too long, I decided to purchase this as a gift from me to me.

    Bought this product online and process was very easy. It arrived the next day. Initially I wanted the 16GB version, but it was not available. So I had hesitantly bought the 8GB version. But I have downloaded reasonable amount of books and I still have more than enough space. Good battery life. Allows my wife to read (easy on her eyes) at night when I go to sleep without keeping the lights on (easy for me) - win win for both of us!

    This has to be one of my favorite purchases I’ve made in a long time. This is reading at its best and it’s only the size of my tv remote.
