Love my Kindle Fire. This is a replacement. Size is very convenient to carry in purse to read anywhere.
I had trouble getting previously read book to return to beginning, but Geek Squad is always very helpful.

Great product! I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading, but doesn't have room for lots of books. The adjustable backlighting on the screen is also awesome for reading when your significant other is trying to sleep. The room can be completely dark and you can still read, and without casting any light.

This device is amazing. Super compact but with lights, waterproof & designed to last. At the $99.99 price point it can't be beat.

Purchased this for a beach vacation and to be able to read by/in the pool. When I picked it up curbside, I was afraid I received the wrong item. It seemed way to small and I figured I'd be taking it back. I ended up opening it and charging it up and it works great. I subtracted one star because while in the pool (on a float), if any small droplet of water hit the screen, it would turn the page. I just ended up reading by the pool so it was fine. Screen is very readable in the sun and in a dark room. This is way better using to read than my iPad. If you like to read, this is a great ereader.
