The All-new Kindle Paperwhite is a device that’s expertly crafted for all eBook lovers. Expertly refined, it is now boasting not only a waterproof design but also a bigger storage space, making it one of the best value for money eReaders in the market right now.
Flaunting an incredibly thin and light design, the new Kindle Paperwhite feels amazing to hold for extended periods. It’s perfect for those long reading sessions without discomfort. Being waterproof means you can safely enjoy reading by the beach, by the pool, or even in the bath, making it a versatile companion.
Its display is the heart of the device and holds up amazingly well. The glare-free 6-inch display with 300 ppi reads just like real paper even under direct sunlight. Every image is crisp and every text is sharp, making for a pleasant reading experience.
Next up is the Kindle’s battery life, which is a standout. Amazon claims it can last up to 6 weeks on a single charge (based on half an hour of reading per day). For regular readers, that means you’ll be charging your device only a few times a month!
The adjustable light settings allow you to read comfortably in any environment. The dark mode option, in particular, will be much appreciated by nighttime readers. As for the storage, Amazon gives you two options: 8GB and 32GB. With the latter, you’ll have enough room to store thousands of books, magazines, comics, and more.
The All-new Kindle Paperwhite also offers Audible support. Although it doesn’t have built-in speakers, connecting your Bluetooth headphones or speakers is a breeze. You can now switch seamlessly between reading and listening to your favorite books.
If you’re a Prime member, you get to reap additional benefits. You’ll get to freely access 1000+ titles, discounts on books, and much more. Kindle’s built-in features like dictionary, Wikipedia, and X-Ray are handy tools for readers.
However, it’s not without drawbacks. Compared to its predecessor, Kindle Paperwhite lacks color temperature control, which was a useful tool to reduce eye strain. Also, there’s no support for EPUB formats, which is a major ebook format used widely.
In conclusion, the All-new Kindle Paperwhite is undeniably a top-notch eReader filled with all the bells and whistles one could want. Its high-resolution, waterproof design, exceptional battery life, and abundant storage make the device well worth its reasonably affordable price point. It proves to cater to the needs of an occasional reader to a heavy-duty bookworm wonderfully. Despite the lack of few features, Kindle Paperwhite is still a great choice for your eBook requirements.
