Very nice to see they finally moved to USB-C. I will buy it (broke my previous paperwhite trying to hack a usb-c component into it) since that's the last piece of hardware I own that still hadn't upgraded to USB-C. It's still bonkers to me that I can charge my macbook, android and kindle with the same cable but if you are "all Apple" you need at least 3 different cables. It seems that even Apple is slowly moving over though, the holdouts used to be "Apple and Kindle" and now it's just "some Apple devices".
- auslegung 5y agoWhat are the three cables? Lightning, usb-c, and ??
- timemct 5y agoI assume the third is for an Apple Watch.
- 8ytecoder 5y agoFour actually - I prefer the MagSafe+Qi.

- toomuchtodo 5y agoWireless charging is where it’s at, and it’s waterproof rated!
- thrower123 5y agoI still don't have a single USB-C device. Especially for something like a Kindle that doesn't draw any power, microUSB is fine.
- zamadatix 5y agoPower is inconsequential outside of charging gaming laptops micro USB is just annoying to plug in.
- fastball 5y agoYep, I'm in the same boat. Was thinking about buying an Onyx Boox for the USB-C but probably I'll just buy the new Paperwhite. If only they could ship to Indonesia...
