Physical books are great and all, but wouldn’t it be nice to carry them without the weight? Or better yet, what if you could take your entire library anywhere? The Amazon Kindle offers exactly that with a convenience that got one user to call it their “ultimate e-reader for every book lover.” The famous e-reader still dominates the market due to its lengthy battery life, supreme lightweight, anti-glare and ample 16 GB storage.
With a high-resolution, glare-free and paper-like display plus an adjustable built-in light and a dark mode — this e-reader can be used day and night. Its 16 GB of storage is enough to store thousands of books (and .pdfs and documents), and with an added Kindle Unlimited subscription, you can just pull those ebooks from the cloud.
What makes the Paperwhite superior to the basic Kindle are its upgraded features.
While the basic Kindle is water-resistant, the Paperwhite is waterproof, fully protecting it from water damage — great news for those who love reading in the bathtub. The Paperwhite has a 12-week battery life (on a single USB-C charge), compared to the basic model’s six, a larger display, Bluetooth connectivity for listening to audiobooks and an even thinner design for even easier storage and portability.
