> Does anyone know why the Kindle is such a bad product? Because it’s made by Amazon

  To be fair, the Kindle is primarily used for reading books and doesn't require a fast refresh rate. It also lasts for weeks (months?) without charging.

    It's not about refresh rate it's about responsiveness. As close to 0ms as possible. On kindle there's a frustrating amount of input lag

      The response you're waiting for is a refresh of the screen. The Kindle excels at being a low-cost device for reading novels, or linear non-fiction with no graphics etc. For anything fancier, it's simply not built for that.

  Isn’t it funny how the CEO is always saying that user experience is their primary focus, and you get such a mediocre experience?
