When it comes to actually sitting down and reading, I'm one of the fast-dwindling tribe of people that think a good ol'-fashioned hardback book is still the best experience possible. But the $179-plus Kindle Paperwhite comes just about as close as possibl...
Abstract: Amazon's Kindle Scribe is the e-reader lineup's exciting new high-end device, the one that's pushing the Kindle experience forward. But it's just as important for Amazon to keep pushing the baseline forward for the people who want to hop into the ecosyste...
High-resolution display, Evenly distributed backlight, Comfortable to hold for long reading sessions
Content protected with DRM technology, Does not handle PDFs or other content-rich file formats well, "With special offers" models display ads on their lock screens
You'll be hard pressed to find a more competent, feature-packed e-reader for the money. But we recommend paying a little extra to avoid Amazon's "special offers" option that puts ads on the Paperwhite's lock screen...
Excellent contrast on display, with deep blacks, Easy one-handed operation, Fast and responsive interface
As ever, Kindle lock-screen ads cost extra to remove, No MicroSD card slot, Web browser remains “experimental”
The Kindle Paperwhite (2015) is a better e-reader than ever, thanks to a higher-resolution display that produces sharp text, as well as a simple, snappy-feeling interface. Read More…...
Abstract: If you're only going to do one thing, you need to do it really, really well, so the stakes are high for Amazon's 2015 Kindle Paperwhite . Slotting in-between the $79 Kindle and the well-esteemed - but, at $199, expensive - Kindle Voyage , the $119 Paperwh...

The Kindle Paperwhite gets an HD screen, and while it isn't as big an upgrade as you'd think, it's a welcome addition, incrementally enhancing the Kindle reading experience...

Lovely, high-res screen, Long-lasting battery, Snappy page flips and scrolling
Base model includes ads, Notmany design tweaks over the last generation, Amazon's ecosystem isn't for everyone
This is the third Paperwhite in as many years, and Amazon finally upgraded it with a high-resolution 300ppi screen. The rest of the changelog is pretty short, but that doesn't really matter; a great display combined with Amazon's web of content makes thi...

Abstract: The Kindle Paperwhite just updated to a higher resolution screen for the same $120 price. I probably dont need to tell you its better than the last Paperwhite. It definitely is.At its core, an e-reader is a very simple, single-use gadget. Anyone who rea...
I mentioned at the outset that Amazon didn't do much upgrading with the third-gen Paperwhite, but the truth is, it didn't have to. The first-gen Paperwhite was a great e-reader, and so was the second. This third-gen becomes just another iteration that mak...
High-resolution screen, Great battery life, Huge book selection
No adaptive backlight, Not waterproof, DRM
