Customers are saying

Customers recognize the Kindle Paperwhite 8GB as being easy to use and having excellent battery life and a convenient backlight. Many appreciate its light weight and size, along with the waterproof feature. However, some customers mentioned occasional issues with page turning and found the advertisements distracting. A few also commented on the price point being a bit high for some.

    NOT NEWEST EDITION

    I bought this yesterday and after I opened it I found out that the device they sold me (it was a pick up order) was NOT the newest version. The newest version is a year old (2019) so not exactly new. They sold me a two year old version, the inferior 2018 model!!! SO MAD!!! This is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE for an electronic company. Sold at the same price as a brand new 2019 model. Won’t buy at “bestbuy” again because you can’t trust them.
