love it!!!
10/10 I bought this Kindle, my first Kindle ever after my tablet stopped working (it was old). Out of all the other Kindles and eReaders, I decided on this one because of the size, it literally fits anywhere so it goes everywhere I go. I bought it July 3rd, didn't charge it out of the box... I read everyday and its now at 23%... the only reason it's not a 5 star review it's because of the ads on the Screensaver, I bought a cover so it doesn't really bother me but I do know some people might not like it. You can take them off by paying a fee, so there's that. Overall, I love this purchase!

First Kindle buyer
This is my first Kindle and I love it. I was reading on an old tablet and it was too big to be reading in bed, this is perfect. The size and brightness to read in bed is great. It's small enough that I can carry it around when running errands and I know I will be sitting around for awhile. The price was great too!

This kindle does not hold a charge. It only lasts less than a few days with moderate use.
1 reply from Amazon Devices Customer Support team - 3 months ago
Hello. Thank you for your feedback on the Kindle. I understand how frustrating it can be when a device doesn't meet your battery life expectations, especially when Kindle e-readers are designed for extended reading sessions between charges. Several factors can significantly impact battery performance. Here are some troubleshooting steps to try: turn off Wi-Fi or enable Airplane Mode when not downloading new content, as a constant wireless connection drains the battery faster. Reduce the front light brightness or use the auto-adjusting light feature if your model supports it. Close any active Bluetooth connections, such as Audible audiobook streaming, when not in use, as Bluetooth audio playback consumes more power than standard reading. Additionally, ensure your Kindle software is up to date, as updates often include battery optimization improvements. If your device is still draining unusually fast after trying these steps, this may indicate a battery hardware issue, particularly if the device is older or has been exposed to extreme temperatures. Amazon Customer Service is available 24/7 and can assist with additional troubleshooting steps. You can reach them at 1-888-280-4331. I hope this helps improve your reading experience. Thank you.

A Kindle for Other Members of Your Family
My grandson loves to read! One day he noticed my Kindle…he quickly figured out how to use it, and how to download the Ninja Turtle books on my Kindle, using my Kindle Unlimited account. Go figure…😂. It was definitely time to invest in a Kindle for him.

The Kindle 6" e-Reader is designed to be a great entry point into digital reading, offering features like a glare-free display, adjustable front light, weeks of battery life, and access to millions of titles.

Stopped working two months after she received for Xmas
1 reply from Amazon Devices Customer Support team - 4 months ago
Hello, and thank you for your feedback on the Kindle Paperwhite. We're sorry to hear that the device stopped working just two months after it was received as a Christmas gift, and we completely understand how disappointing that must be, especially for a gift that was meant to be enjoyed for years to come. The Kindle Paperwhite is designed to be a reliable, long-lasting e-reader featuring a 7-inch glare-free display with 300 ppi resolution and a battery life of up to 12 weeks on a single charge. When a Kindle Paperwhite becomes unresponsive or appears to have stopped working, there are several troubleshooting steps that may help restore it. First, try performing a hard restart by pressing and holding the power button for approximately 40 seconds until the screen flashes or the device restarts on its own, then release the button. This can resolve many issues where the device appears frozen or unresponsive. If the screen remains blank, connect the Kindle to a power source using the original USB cable and let it charge for at least 30 minutes to an hour, as a completely drained battery can sometimes cause the device to appear non-functional. After charging, attempt the hard restart again by holding the power button for 40 seconds. If the device powers on but the screen appears stuck or frozen on a particular page, try holding the power button for 7 seconds to bring up the power dialog, and then select "Restart." Additionally, check that the charging cable and adapter are functioning properly by testing them with another device, as a faulty cable can prevent the Kindle from charging and may give the impression that the device itself has stopped working. If none of these steps bring the device back to life, the good news is that the Kindle Paperwhite comes with a standard 1-year limited warranty from Amazon. Amazon Customer Service is available 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331 to assist with warranty claims and further troubleshooting. We want to make sure this gift can be enjoyed as intended, and we hope this information helps get the Kindle Paperwhite back up and running. Thank you!
