Imagine holding a thousand books in your hand. Imagine wearing your jammies while getting that next book in your series, and starting into it a minute later. Imagine reading at night in bed without needing a lamp because your book is backlit (and the light doesn’t hurt your eyes). Imagine having your kindle read to you (even if you don’t have audiobooks) with text to speech while you drive or fold laundry. The 12th edition of the Kindle Paperwhite is a fabulous device and well-worth considering if you read a lot. It’s not too big, not heavy, waterproof, and easy to carry in your purse or backpack. Note that if you get a cover with it (highly recommended), when you open the cover the Kindle turns on automatically to the last page you were reading. With the cover open it feels like you’re holding a thin book -- or fold back the cover if you prefer. The Kindle E-reader is not a computer. It’s not a tablet or a phone. It is a gizmo that acts like a book with a black-and-white flat e-ink screen showing typed sentences and paragraphs. You turn pages one at a time, just like a book. There is no movement on the page and no distraction or advertisement*. It is just text, plus any images that the author has included to illustrate his book. *NOTE: The advertisements on the Kindle are on the main page not the individual book pages and just show books you might like. They are unobtrusive. The backlighting, unlike a computer, tablet, or phone, is gentle because the Kindle’s light is directed onto the screen, not into your eyes. You can change lighting level and add warmth (yellow lighting), decide on dark screen or light screen, and change the size of the print to make your reading experience “just the way you like it.” It’s super-simple to access your own ebooks or to find new ones either on your computer or directly on the Kindle. They load in less than a minute onto the Kindle, ready for reading. Keep in mind if you are a reader that ebooks tend to be half or less the price of the same books in print. You can even find FREE ebooks and audiobooks on Amazon and/or use the Libby app (libbyapp.com) to borrow LOCAL LIBRARY books. You may want to consider subscribing to Kindle Unlimited for $12/month so you can download an even wider selection of free ebooks, audiobooks, and magazines from Amazon to keep as long as you want. Can you tell I love my Kindle? I am wowed by having so many books so easily accessible — not like the time I took that 5-hour flight with one crummy poorly written book and nothing else to do. This 12th generation Kindle is fantastic. The battery lasts a long time. The screen is plenty sensitive for page turns and navigation. I go through one or two books a week easy with this little device. Ebooks have revolutionized the publishing industry, and if you are a reader, the Kindle may be exactly what you’re looking for. If you read many ebooks on your phone or a tablet, consider being kind to your eyes with a Kindle. If you are resisting because you aren’t sure you’ll like ebooks as well as print books, I say what the heck, the Kindle may be worth a try. It’s like driving a racing car rather than a horse and buggy. You might decide you love it. * NOTE: To enable TTS (text to speech) so that your kindle can read to you without audiobooks, turn on your wireless headphones or speaker. Then on your Kindle, tap the top of the screen, then hit the three dots on the right. Go to Settings. Hit Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, then Bluetooth Devices. Select your device so your Kindle will recognize it. Next, close the window and go back to Settings. Hit Accessibility, then turn on Voiceview screen reader. The Kindle should start talking to you. If it’s glitchy, just turn off your bluetooth device then turn it on again. Remember that you have to give double taps not single taps on the Kindle to navigate actions. If you want to change the volume or reading speed (I like 1.25x) just double tap on Voiceview screen to show and customize your settings.

This is my first Kindle Paperwhite machine and before that, I was doing most of my reading from my Samsung tablet which is glare galore. I try to get at least an hour of reading in the afternoon everyday and some before bed. With the tablet, my eyes would get very tire from less than 30 min of reading and I had to fight from falling asleep while trying to read some more. With the Kindle I could read for hour and a half without getting nearly as tired. I think it has a lot to do with the Kindle's glare-free screen with high contrast ratio, my eyes could make out the words with less effort than from the tablet. That alone was totally worth the purchase for me. Besides the beautiful screen and all the usual e-Reader features I particularly like its ability to automatically sync my reading progress over all devices that has the Kindle app installed. In my case, its just between the Kindle and my iPhone. Since I have my phones all the time and not the Kindle, I can pick up some reading (instead of playing games) while I am idling at doc's office, or similar situations. I then resume my reading with the Kindle when I get home later without having to remember where I left off. Battery life is pretty impressive, I took it for a 17 days vacation and never once I had to recharge it. I still have 70% left at the end of the trip. ** What I wish ** - Similar to the Libby apps in my tablet, the Kindle has a "Dark Mode" feature that I love to use when reading in a darker environment. However, the dark background does not go completely dark, its more like a dark grey even with the brightness turn all the way down. It would be very helpful if I can turn it all the way down to true black background so I can read at night with the lights off. - Another wishful thinking is if the Kindle can do "page scrolling" up and down like it does with the Kindle's apps in my iPhone. Somehow that feature makes my hands feel less tire than from turning the page. Overall, I am very happy with the Kindle and highly recommend it.
