Guess who bought a Paperwhite 2 months ago?
Anyways, despite the new model I'm still fairly happy with my purchase. I don't read a lot (in fact I bought the Kindle just to use it while on a vacation), but I have to admit that epaper in general is something I never had the need to use - until I tried the Kindle.
The software still sucks though, but that will probably not change with an upgraded HW release :)
As other people mentioned here, Amazon is really locking in their users on formats that are beneficial to them only - but for its price I guess that these kind of limitations are okay-ish
- culopatin 5y agoI got a second one that is arriving today but I paid $40 with student discount. I think at that price is not worth 100 more. The only reason I’d upgrade is that I never use the light because it’s SO DAMN BLUE. From all the colors of LEDs to choose I don’t know why they went with this one. The yellowish color should be the default for everything.
- sundvor 5y agoI am in exactly the same boat. I did order the new one as well though, the version with the light sensors, because I like reading at night and the current light is too blue for my liking. The extra display size is a great bonus, and can I just say Type C charging finally. I've been ok reading my Mannings books on it, and I love my selection of Prime books. Will give current device to my son.
