    Picked this one up for my wife and she absolutely loves it. She did get the Kindle Scribe but there ended up being something wrong with the screen so she returned it to Amazon. So I picked this Kindle instead and she loves this one a lot better. She says its a much better size for her. The Kindle Scribe was too big and the extra cost to write on the Scribe wasnt worth it she said. This one is perfect for her, it has a great battery life and the built in light is great for reading on it anytime of the day in any setting. The Signature edition also has more storage and wireless charging which is a nice upgrade as well. Having to use a computer to transfer your own Epub books you purchased from other sites to the Kindle is a little bit of a pain but not difficult, other than that it's a great device.

    It was a gift for my daughter, and she is so happy to get this special edition. With this Kindle, reading is a luxurious experience. You will appreciate the comfort, technology and elegant design… 1- The high-resolution screen is crisp, clear and perfect for long reading sessions. Adjustable lighting and automatic light sensor make reading comfortable in any environment, from sunlight to total darkness. 2- Wireless charging makes it much more convenient. 3- With 32 GB, that's huge! 4- The advantage of “0” ads! No distractions. 5- The matte screen minimizes reflections, so you will love it. 6- Depending on the use, the battery can last for weeks.

    I’ve been using the Kindle Paperwhite for a few months now, and it has easily become my favorite way to read. The display is crisp and glare-free (even in bright sunlight) and the adjustable warm light makes it comfortable on the eyes during long reading sessions. It’s lightweight, easy to hold with one hand, and the battery lasts for weeks, not days. The seamless integration with the Kindle store and library apps makes getting new books simple. If you’re a reader looking for a dedicated device that feels like reading on real paper with the convenience of modern tech, I highly recommend the Kindle Paperwhite.

    I purchased the Kindle Signature Edition as a more convenient way to read my books without the harsh glare of blue light from other tablet devices. It has been a game changer. The ease of having my collections of books stored in one place with a simple tap of the screen. It is the perfect size to fit in most bags & deep pockets. If you’re in a fast paced city, it’s a great device to have to kill time whether on public transit or while waiting to meet up with friends & loved ones - getting your reading in where you can. The ability to research words on the spot & highlight areas of a book that resonate with you or catches your eye is amazing. Two of the best apps that have aided in my newfound love for Kindle are Good Reads & Libby. You will not be disappointed.

    Paperwhite improves in 4/5 areas over the original

    I like the paperwhite as an upgrade to my original kindle. Page turning is faster, battery life is longer (though lets be honest 6 weeks for the original is still pretty great compared to smart phones). And the lighting is much improved. It is slightly larger and heavier and though it doesn't seem like 53 grams would be noticeable, it does after an hour of holding the paperwhite over your head while in bed. All in all though, it is worth the upgrade unless the smooth glass feel and slight gloss of the paperwhite is a concern.

    It took me about a week to get used to reading a book on an e-reader as I have always purchased my books to put on a shelf. The Kindle Paperwhite SE is lightweight, convenient to pack, and has amazing battery life (almost three weeks worth now). Best part is no eye strain if you like to read at night in bed. Added bonus, if you fall asleep reading, it remembers exactly what page you were on...no flipping pages to discover where you stopped reading. I would recommend to all book lovers and have already recommended to each of my grown children.

    The ultimate e-reader for serious readers

    My wife is an extremely avid reader—she reads over 600 books a year, and the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition has been absolutely perfect for her. The screen is easy on the eyes for long reading sessions, the adjustable warm light is fantastic for nighttime reading, and the battery life is outstanding even with heavy daily use. She loves the auto-adjusting front light, the wireless charging, and the fact that it’s waterproof, which makes it easy to take anywhere. The performance is smooth, storage is more than enough, and it’s lightweight and comfortable to hold for hours. If you’re a serious reader or know someone who is, this is hands down one of the best tech purchases you can make. She wouldn’t switch to anything else.

    Absolutely love this device. It's lightweight, the screen does not bother my eyes like a typical computer, and I can carry SO many books in one device that it makes life much more efficient when traveling. Being able to read when lighting is low is fantastic as well compared to trying to read a typical book. Definitely get a case to protect the screen when in bags.

    Got this for my fiance, as her old one was a little outdated and running slow. This one glides through the pages and look crisp and clean while doing so. Its also slightly bigger. Its leveled up her reading experience by quite a bit!

    As someone who has read on kindle app via iPad for years, I debated on whether an actual kindle would be a worthwhile purchase. I decided to purchase a kindle as I wanted a better battery life and more light weight device for traveling. I’ve had the kindle for a couple of months now and I wish I would have purchased earlier as the battery life is great and it is so light weight. The only con I have is I do wish the screen’s brightness could be a little brighter. That’s likely preference on my end, but if you like a really bright screen as well-this is not the device that will provide.

    Holding up great!! I’ve been loving my kindle! Battery is very long lasting, I’ve been able to go almost a week without having to plug it in. Very portable fits in almost every small bag of mine. Love the blue light feature for nights while reading in bed.

    I love the paper white. The text is very clear and easy to read, even in the sun. If you're wondering if you should get the signature edition, the differences are more storage, no ads, and automatic brightness adjustment. Honestly, I dont think any of those are deal breakers, unless you're listening to a lot of audiobooks (which needs more storage). Ads arent intrusive and sometimes even helpful if you want recommendations (theyre only in the title screen). If you get the normal version, you can pay $10 later to remove ads. I got the signature because of the auto light. Its pretty cool that you can walk outside and dont need to keep changing the brightness

    I have had several kindles over the past 10 years and I must say I really am enjoying my latest purchase. A charge last a long time (which was one of the details that attracted me to buying it) although I keep it topped off---hope that is ok!. screen is easy to read and has all the features I enjoyed with my still working prior paperwhite kindle.

    I purchased this as an upgrade to my previous signature edition and in a side by side comparison, it is so much faster. The wireless charging ability is so nice. This is definitely a worthy upgrade from previous versions because it really feels like a premium kindle experience.
