I’ve only had my kindle for a week now. But so far, I absolutely LOVE it! I love being to read in bed at night without having a lamp on. 10/10 recommend.

Great upgrade from my 2019 Kindle
Ordered Christmas Eve 2024, arrived five days later. Excellent service has always from Target. I’m a happy shopper there :-) using Kindle devices for about five years now. I continue to be happy with their lightness, back lighting technology, and now Paperwhite units are waterproof.

Hi Tatiana! Very happy to hear about the joy your new Kindle is bringing you! I love my Kindle as well and have been using them since Gen 1! I find that I read much faster as well, especially after experimenting with some different fonts. You can even add new fonts to your Kindle! We hope you continue to have fun with it!

Amazing Little eReader
Look, I know the Kindle isn't anything new or groundbreaking anymore, but it should be! In a world where we are charging our phones every single day, multiple times a day, the whole line of Kindle devices is just chilling, getting charged once a week, maybe less? Outside of some select Garmin watches, this Kindle device has the best battery life of any electronic device I have purchased in the last ten years. The screen is nearly a perfect implementation of real paper, the controls are responsive, there are features that I would never even fathom using like audiobooks and bluetooth, but they are there! All that said, totally worth the price. Don't balk at it. Just go for it.

Dear CiderMouse, Thank you so much for this wonderful and enthusiastic review! We absolutely love your perspective on the Kindle Paperwhite, and you've captured exactly what makes it special. You're absolutely right—in a world where we're constantly tethered to charging cables, the Kindle's battery life truly is remarkable. We're thrilled that you're experiencing that legendary week-plus battery performance! And your point about the e-ink screen being "nearly a perfect implementation of real paper" is spot-on—that's exactly what our team has worked so hard to achieve for the most comfortable reading experience. We also appreciate you highlighting features like audiobooks and Bluetooth. Even if you're not using them now, it's great to know they're there when you want to explore different ways to enjoy your books! Thank you for encouraging others not to hesitate on the purchase. Your genuine enthusiasm and detailed feedback mean so much to us and will definitely help other readers make their decision. Happy reading, and we hope your Kindle Paperwhite brings you many years of enjoyment!

Hi Gary! Thank you for sharing your feedback about your Kindle Paperwhite screen discoloration issue. I understand your frustration with both the device problem and the store experience. Warranty service and technical support can be handled directly through Amazon. Since this appears to be a hardware issue, the best solution is to contact Amazon Customer Support directly at 1-888-280-4331. They are available 24/7 and can check your warranty status, process a replacement if covered (typically at no cost within the 1-year warranty period), or explain your options if out of warranty. In the meantime, you can try some quick troubleshooting steps like restarting your device by holding the power button for 40 seconds, checking for software updates, or adjusting your screen brightness and warmth settings. For the fastest resolution, I recommend reaching out to Amazon Device Support directly, as they have specialized training for Kindle issues and can provide the most appropriate solution for your specific situation. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and I hope this information helps you get your Kindle screen issue resolved quickly.

planned obsolesence after 7 years it died
and my books vanished 1 hour conversation later- no resolution.Customer service called to try to sell me another.
1 reply from Amazon Devices Customer Support team - 3 months ago
Hi! Thank you for sharing your concerning experience with the Kindle Paperwhite and subsequent customer service interaction. I sincerely apologize for the loss of access to your books and the frustrating response you received. I want to clarify that your purchased Kindle books are not actually lost - they remain permanently accessible in your Amazon account library, even if your device fails. You can access these books through the free Kindle app on any smartphone, tablet, or computer, or through the Amazon Cloud Reader in your web browser at read.amazon.com. While electronic devices do eventually fail, a Paperwhite should ideally last longer than 7 years with proper care. If you're still interested in resolving the original device issue, you could try these steps: perform a hard reset by holding the power button for 40 seconds, then check if the battery will hold a charge using different cables and power sources. Sometimes what appears to be complete failure can be resolved through these methods. If you'd like further assistance recovering access to your books or addressing the device issues, please contact Amazon Customer Service at 1-888-280-4331 and specifically request to speak with the Kindle Technical Support team, who are better equipped to handle device troubleshooting rather than sales. Thank you for bringing this situation to our attention. Thank you for your feedback. I hope this information is useful.

Great e-reader
After deciding between all the kindles I landed on this one & so far it's very straightforward to use and love it has a backlight so I can read in bed or traveling.

Dear KTMaz, Thank you for sharing your experience with the Kindle Paperwhite! We're glad to hear the backlight feature is enhancing your reading experience, especially for those cozy bedtime reading sessions. It's one of our most popular features, along with being straightforward to use - just as reading should be!
