Review: Absolutely worth it, whether upgrading or getting for the first time! - This kindle truly surpassed my expectations. I upgraded from a 7th gen Kindle Paperwhite (2015) and I have to say that it's so amazing compared to my older Kindle. The display is so much larger in person and the new paperwhite is somehow lighter! The battery so far seems decent, it's really easy to buy and download books. I would 100% recommend this kindle to someone who has never had one. It really reduces the friction of reading a book and makes you enjoy it a lot more. The device is very light, thin and is perfectly portable with a nice crisp display and backlight in yellow and white too, but would recommend a case as it can probably get scratched easily. ## Features - Our fastest Kindle ever – The next-generation 7“ Paperwhite display has a higher contrast ratio and 25% faster page turns. - Ready for travel – The ultra-thin design has a larger glare-free screen so pages stay sharp no matter where you are. - Escape into your books – Your Kindle doesn’t have social media, notifications, or other distracting apps. - Battery life for your longest novel – A single charge via USB-C lasts up to 12 weeks. - Read in any light – Adjust the display from white to amber to read in bright sunlight or in the dark. - Waterproof and worry-free – Take your stories by the pool, in the bath, or anywhere in between. - Browse over 1 million eBooks in the Kindle Store on desertcart US, including thousands of Arabic titles. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Display | Amazon's 7” Paperwhite display technology with built-in front light, 300 ppi, optimized font technology, 16-level gray scale. | | Size | 127.5 x 176.7 x 7.8 mm | | Weight | 211 g.

I upgraded from a 7th gen Kindle Paperwhite (2015) and I have to say that it's so amazing compared to my older Kindle. The display is so much larger in person and the new paperwhite is somehow lighter! The battery so far seems decent, it's really easy to buy and download books. I would 100% recommend this kindle to someone who has never had one. It really reduces the friction of reading a book and makes you enjoy it a lot more. The device is very light, thin and is perfectly portable with a nice crisp display and backlight in yellow and white too, but would recommend a case as it can probably get scratched easily. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Upgrade that is worth it *by E***V on 28 November 2024* I’ve been contemplating about upgrading to the latest Paperwhite for several weeks. My old standard Kindle 10th generation is alive and well, even the battery still lasts weeks. I was trying to be e-waste cognizant, thinking that I don’t really need to change, etc. But with the Thanksgiving promotion, I decided to pull the trigger. … Feels like a step-change! Haven’t noticed any drawbacks yet, frankly. Despite some reviews I did not notice any un-uniformity of the light. Warm light is a huge difference for you eyes if you like to read in the dark. The loading speed and page turning finally feels like more or less modern technology, not the XX-century. It’s swift, almost no delay and even has slight animation). Wireless charging! You can now charge almost everything on the single q-charger. USB-C is also there and charges very fast, mine went from 41% to 87% in ~20 minutes. The screen is noticeably crisper, pictures are finally pictures, not a blurred grey spot. Oh, and don’t worry about the size-the difference is there, but I’d call it negligible. I went for the Signature edition, as the price difference is not that high. If you’re still hesitating, don’t!
