But, again, I don’t see the value in wireless charging on a device that only needs to be charged every week or so, even with extensive use. Finally, I don’t see a purpose of wireless charging or more than 8 GB of storage unless you like to keep many audiobooks downloaded. Is the fact that this is happening at the same time that the new Paperwhites are released a coincidence?

Kindle Paperwhite Kids | First waterproof Kindle for children

Yeah, I have the previous Kids Kindle and you can enter or exit kids mode at anytime; you just have to enter a password to exit and use it as a regular Kindle. For example, software does not recognize when a book is not published yet, and will try and download it! But there is almost no difference in the quality between the most recent Kindle Oasis and the most recent Kindle Paperwhite. On the other hand, the Paperwhite has only been out a bit over a month, and it already has been 25% off, and if history is a guide, there will be regular sales that are 20-25% off. The additional weight means it is less comfortable to use one-handed, and the additional size makes it harder to throw in a pocket.

Make sure you aren’t stressing the battery out by draining it completely before charging and over charging. Letters are truly as sharp and clear as everyone says, with excellent contrast and a nice range of display controls. I use it to grab new books when I’m out or browse for a new book where I don’t have WiFi (as far as i know, the lake near us does not have free wifi on the trails lol). And I think the device is too heavy, does not need as much battery as it has, and the bezels are probably too thin to use with one hand comfortably. inches may not seem like a lot, but based on the additional width and height, at the font size I mostly use, there are about five extra lines per screen.

If you have any Paperwhite or Oasis from 2015 or later, you have an excellent screen, and the current technology of the eink display cannot really give you a better one. The screen on the Paperwhite is excellent, but not a reason to upgrade if you have any Paperwhite or Oasis that has been sold in the past five years. The offset weight of the Oasis design made the Oasis more balanced for one-handed use, but the curved edges of the new Paperwhite are more comfortable. There’s only one ad-supported version now, and one 32GB version, and a misunderstood kids version that most people will likely ignore. I have approximately 200 kindle books downloaded right now, approximately two years of reading material for my average reading rate, and I have 3/4 of the 8 GB storage space free.Finally figured it out myself - holding down on/off button long enough forces a restart and, voila, device working again. I’m interested in getting it because it’s a better deal but didn’t know if it’s something you have to turn off each time you use your kindle or if you can turn it off once and it stayed off kids setting.

They all have glass substrates, and that’s why the kids version is better to get because it comes with the upgraded 2-year worry-free guarantee where they will replace it for free if it breaks or the screen gets cracked, unlike the regular Kindle warranty where you’re out of luck if the screen breaks.I would give her my 4th Gen Paperwhite and use the 5th Gen because I have been waiting for a larger screen. I’m really used to the buttons, and I’d miss them on another device, but for me the really stand-out feature is the origami case. However, that will not matter for many that are used to throwing it in a purse or bag or are only using it around the house. Tools for readers – Kindle Paperwhite Kids includes Vocabulary Builder and Word Wise to help young readers build their skills.
