There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Recently, when my Paperwhite’s battery finally gave out, I looked for a replacement. However, the newer PaperWhite models were larger than what I was used to. The more affordable “Amazon Kindle” (not Paperwhite) was closer in size—just a tad smaller.
While reading reviews, I noticed that the Kindle also features Dark Mode. As someone with “floaters” in my dominant eye, I find white text on a black background less bothersome. I’ve already embraced Dark Mode for my computer work, and it’s been a big help.
I’ve been using my new Kindle for over two weeks now, and I’m thrilled with it. The size is perfect, and the readability matches my old Paperwhite in all lighting conditions. Dark mode is a godsend for me.
The main difference between this model and the low-end Paperwhite seems to be the adjustable warm light feature in the latter. Personally, I’m content adjusting brightness levels, whether in Dark Mode or not.
For my old Kindle, I had a durable leather cover that lasted nine years. Since it wouldn’t fit the new device, I opted for the Denim cover, which I’m quite pleased with.
In summary, unless you specifically need the warm light or a larger device, you can save money by choosing this one!
