Kindle (newest gen) – Lightest and most compact Kindle with glare-free display, faster page turns, adjustable front light and long battery life – 16 GB – Without Ads – Matcha

Absolutely stunning. Was thinking for a while on which one to buy, but as I've never had one before I thought I'd go with the cheapest to see how it goes. It's in black and white which is absolutely fine, I don't need colour to read the pages, it's tiny, smaller than expected but super light to hold and im glad it's so small! I've read 5 books now in less than a month and had the ad free version. You can see which books are kindle unlimited and even the kindle books are ALOT cheaper than buying an actual book. I was worried I had too many books and where to put them all! But I can read as many as I want without taking up the space. You can borrow only a certain amount of books at one time, but that's ok as why would I want more than 20 borrowed anyway? I can only read one at a time. You can buy alot of accessories for them too online, handles, popsockets, cases etc... I've chosen to decorate mine. It can be individual. There is no glare AT all when reading in the sunshine (even on the lowest brightness setting) and the battery lasts for ages! ( I automatically set mine in settings to lock after 5 minutes of no use) I can read on my side when in bed and when going away, you don't need to take 8 books with you, you can just take this kindle and have 8 books downloaded, ideal for frequent holidayers! I went for the 16gb as I wasn't sure how much space id use, and I'd say it's perfect for me. The colour is gorgeous and there's so much information you can see from each book. It also gives you suggestions on what books to read based on what you've read. I've now linked to Goodreads so I can find books Id like to read once I've finished. The best thing I've ever bought being a book reader, take it everywhere with me. I looked at YouTube videos to find which one would be best for me and there's lotss of tip and tricks that you can get from your kindle. 100% worth the purchase and I'm sad I hadn't bought one sooner. Never going back 🙏🏽 size comparison to a cola can 😬

This is my third Kindle and thought I needed to upgrade as the last one was 6th generation. This one is slightly smaller than my last one but is perfect. It is light to hold and much quicker than my previous kindle. The pages turn in an instant. It was easy to set up and link to my prime account. What I did notice was that the front cover of the book I am reading appears for a few seconds before progressing to the last page read. I like this idea. But I wrote to Amazon years ago suggesting this would be a good idea as when you asked Kindle readers what they were reading they often could not remember and had to go into the book and search for the title (with a book you see the title all the time when you pick it up). My response from Amazon at that time was that it was not possible to do this - just thinking that someone at Amazon stole my idea and suggestion and probably got a nice bonus for this innovation.

I love books. Actual, physical books that you can hold and smell. I love to smell books. I own hundreds of books, maybe even thousands. So I did not know how I would get on with a kindle but the convenience of being able to store so many books on it and in such a compact size appealed for work and travel. I've had it for just over a month now and I LOVE it!!! The battery life is fantastic, I read a lot and I have not yet had to charge it. I really like the screen and being able to read in low light conditions without putting a light on. I like how small, thin and lightweight it is. I can hold it in one hand. I like how it works, saving where I am in the book I am reading - ready for when I next pick it up. I like being able to look up the definition of words quickly and easily. It's a marvellous thing, and I am so pleased I bought it 😊

Excellent e-reader. Amazon has definitely perfected this device well over the years, the e-ink display refreshes very quickly and the 300ppi display is very crisp and clear. The backlight makes it very easy to read even in direct sunlight while the night mode makes it comfortable to read in bed. This 11th gen Kindle also has USB-C which is a very welcome upgrade from my previous Kindle that still used micro USB. The colour option is also very nice. I usually go for more “conventional” colours for my tech but I decided to go for the colourful option this time and I’m glad I did. My only issue was with setup, where I had two issues. Neither of these were with the device itself, but with Amazon’s software. 1. If your account has OTP for two factor authentication, signing in on the Kindle itself is unreliable and, at least for me, it didn’t work at all. The only way I could sign in was with the mobile app. Even though I reset my password and tested it on other devices, the Kindle still wouldn’t accept it. You’re supposed to be able to put in your password + the OTP code to get around lack of 2FA support on the Kindle, but I tried this at least ten times with multiple reboots to no success. 2. When I tried setting up through the mobile app, the app didn’t discover my WiFi networks because they use WPA3. The Kindle itself is perfectly able to discover and connect to these networks but the Kindle mobile app isn’t. Which means I had to use a mobile hotspot for setup and manually change the WiFi network on the Kindle after. This was still an issue even if I already connected the WiFi on the Kindle manually before starting the mobile app. Why? The mobile setup process uses Bluetooth, it should be able to just check if the Kindle already has WiFi connected, but it didn’t. Between these two issues, setup took me an hour due to all the troubleshooting. Both could easily be fixed by a large company like Amazon simply by updating the Kindle software to properly support OTP and updating the mobile app to support WPA3. These are very easy things to do for a trillion dollar company. I did take off a star for this as it was a much more stressful setup process than it needed to be. Thankfully, once I finally got it set up, the device itself is excellent.

display size is reasonable and the brightness is just fine. the best thing is its weight. by holding it for long time and you won't feel it. it is also responsive and easy to use. touch screen is the only draw back, I personally prefer at least a few physical button to forward and back, etc. after all, the bezel is large and has place for button.

A great device, simple to use, super lightweight comfortable light options to suit bright or dark environments.

Love the green colour and the new size. I purchased this after receiving an email saying my 2013 Kindle was no longer being supported. Whilst this model had the same size screen, the boarders are smaller, making it lighter to hold and transport either in a pocket or handbag. Love it!

Wife’s new one she’s had all the other ones and likes this a lot it’s a bit smaller but says it great and very lightweight, happy wife happy life 😂
