Love it!
Why did you choose this product over others?:I LOVE THIS KINDLEIt’s perfect, so light and such a good size. The light and dark modes are great & the backlight works perfect. I have seen people mention the battery died quickly but I keep it on airplane mode at all times. This really saves the battery. I only take it off airplane mode if I need to update it, download or delete a book etc. The size is perfect, it fits in all my bags and even in most pockets. The price is great. This is my favourite kindle ♥️ I’ve actually purchased this as a gift for someone after having mine for a few months as I love it so much. The matcha colour is super pretty!

Dyslexia friendly.
I bought this kindle for my daughters 22nd birthday. She was thrilled. Its the same great quality as any other kindle i have owned. Like a wally I accidently ticked link to my account but it was easy to unlink and then let my daughter link it to her account. I was relieved because I thought i had messed up. I messaged amazon support and they told me instantly how to unlink it. I got the without ads which my daughter says was good value. Makes sence who likes adds?My daughter loves the paper white as its very dyslexia friendly. No more not buying abook because the pages is too white or the writing is too small and squished. Reliable. Charge lasts along time. My daughter is thrilled.

Adore my kindle!
Honestly, I absolutely adore my kindle.It’s re sparked my love for reading, especially as a busy mum. I love being able to read even just a quick couple of pages whilst stood in the kitchenI actually paid a little extra for the sage green as it wasn’t on sale like the black one was. But honestly, I don’t regret it at all! It makes the screen feel lighter and I just love looking at it

Excellent buy
Best purchase yet, easy to set up, once linked to your account and have recently synced your library there's plenty of storage for all of your downloads. It's doesn't take long for them to load nor is it sluggish. The display is excellent, no blurring of the words brilliant first kindle for me.

New lightweight
This kindle is neat and light in weight as advertised which was what I wanted but the cover I ordered fits well but is heavier than I expected.

Happy with my purchase, love it!
I've been using my new lightweight Kindle paperwhite(green) for a week. I like the size and slimness of this model. The weight in your hand while reading is very comfortable. As I read every day, all day, this feature is important to me. The photos attached show my old(white) paperwhite, which was chunky & heavy to hold in comparison to the newer version. I like the quality & the lightweight feel of this new model. A clear, precise touchscreen screen with choice of light/dark screen. Also faster page turning & longer battery life. With a price of £94, with an option of paying over 5 months, interest free is exceptional is great value for month. This little gem of a Kindle ticks all the boxes for me and travels with me everywhere! I cannot comment on freeze & water resistance at this point.I give 4 stars only because I have not having fully explored this new model. I would recommend this paperwhite kindle.

Perfection
Love it! Great value for money, literally use it every day. I’ve had various others and I’ve always gone back to physical books in the end, so far so good with this. It’s small enough to come pretty much everywhere with me too
