    Great little e-reader. Anyone wondering about the 8 or 32 gb version, 8 is perfect for reading regular books without a lot of images. If you’ll be using it for text books or web pages with images I would suggest the 32gb. But so far I have around 80 books on my kindle and have only used 294mb.

    Best Kindle eReader

    This is the best Kindle eReader out there, even better than my Kindle Oasis 2019. The screen of this Paperwhite 2021 is slightly larger at 6.8 compared to the previous 6" Paperwhite and smaller than the 7" of the Oasis. Yet, I felt that the Paperwhite 2021 is far superior in that it has a faster processor (page turns and responsiveness are really quick on this model). But the best feature yet is the Warm Light setting, and worth updating from the older Paperwhite or the Oasis 2017. The ease on the eyes are really noticeable and even the text is still very sharp and crisp. I was a little annoyed that this model does not have the wireless charging or a higher storage. For those features, you have to upgrade to the Signature edtion. Also, the rubber back is a fingerprint magnet. I placed a popsocket on the back for easier holding with one hand (I have small hands). Overall, this is the best Kindle eReader to date and now I'm considering getting rid of my Oasis.

    Worth the price. This has been my favorite purchase of the year so far. I love reading on Kindle because it’s convenient and the texture looks so much like reading on paper.

    A really nifty device. It’s small and fits great in my small hands. I really like how fast it is. I have an older model kindle paperwhite and this one blows that one out of the water. It’s just like reading a book. I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a kindle.

    I have been waiting to upgrade from my older model for 5 years or so, but until now all the new Paperwhites have had progressively worse battery life. This version actually has battery life like kindles used to! I read for 30-90 minutes a day on average and the charge lasts weeks! I am highly satisfied, and recommend this model of you've been looking for an upgrade.

    This has made reading so much easier and convenient. I’ve never read so many books in my life. I still love physical books, but my kindle goes everywhere with me. I’ve been downloading books from Z Library onto there. My county doesn’t use Libby, however, the app Hoopla works too for library books.
