    I'm so happy about my Kindle. I especially love the night light since I love reading in the middle of the night. It was a gift from my mother on Christmas and I'm absolutely in love with it !

    Too small for me. I exchanged for Oasis to have page turn buttons and better screen.

    My husband purchased this for me on May 5, 2019. Went to use it the other day and there is a battery with exclamation point on the front. I have tried charging. There is absolutely no communication to the battery. The warranty has expired. This is a known issue from what I can tell and Amazon will not even replace the item. It probably has less than 10 hours of usage. Very disappointed.

    Great for reading. Useless as a dictionary

    It does not provide a keyboard or any means to enter a search word for the Kindle Crossword Dictionary that's installed. What's wrong with it. How do I fix it or how do I return it?

    Amazon supports crime

    After a year of usage my account got locked. It turned out that somebody (not me) claimed that the device is lost, requested and obtained a replacement! 3 days with support brought no results. Legally bought device is not usable while some criminal continue using replacement and Amazon does not care of it.

    Kindle quit working after 5 weeks. Best Buy only guarantees for 15 days. Unless your a big customer.
