    Was the "must have" gift for my wife's birthday. Exactly what she wanted, in stock and curbside pickup made this the no effort win for gift giving.

    Our son wanted to get mom a new Kindle for our upcoming vacation to Mexico, and reading that this is water resistant was an instant sale! She enjoys the convenience of USB-C charging as well.

    Love the auto brightness and contrast. Easy to read in all light levels and still gets dim enough to read at night without disturbing anyone next to you. Love it.

    Love it. One issue for me is that you can't fine tune the display, It has this grey foggy look that makes the screen not as sharp. When using dark mode, the black has a gray overlay that you can't seem to get rid of. Maybe I just can't get the settings roigh or missing something. It's just a personal preference for me but thought you ought to know.
