Title: A viable alterantive to “the book”.
Review: My first foray into the realm of Kindle. I’ve been a “book” person for a long time. A relative of mine, also a hardcore “book” person, took the plunge recently and discovered life with a Kindle is good. So I decided to give it a try. Bought a (like new) used Kindle (11th Gen) …the basic model …and yes, there is life in reading without the “book”. The basic Kindle is light as a feather; the *screen* measures 5 13/16″ tall by 3 9/16″ wide …giving a 7″ diagonal screen. The overall dimensions are 6 3/16″ tall by 4 3/16″ wide. I thought this seemed a bit on the small side but I haven’t had any issues reading with it. What it does do is make the thing incredibly portable; you can stuff or carry the Kindle just about anywhere. Battery life is very long and, if you opt out of the ads, probably a bit longer. The ads are for books and *only* appear on the cover screen; you will *not* be getting any ads once you sign in and wake up your Kindle. For a small, one-time fee ($15?) you can banish the cover screen ads permanently if you have a Kindle with the cover screen ads.Readability with the no-frills Kindle is better than reading a book. Why? Because you can change the font and, more importantly, change the size of the font. Your only image adjustment is brightness. The basic Kindle has a black and white presentation …enhanced by the fact the “white” is actually more of a warm white than a bight white. Whomever researched the contrast and background tonality level hit the nail on the head. The best part of the Kindle, is you can read at night without the need for any external lighting. And no, your eyes won’t get tired reading in the dark once you dial in the brightness level.Handling the basic Kindle can be a bit of a challenge as the sides aren’t very wide; it can be easy to accidentally touch the screen, which advances the page before you intend to. In addition, the Kindle is fairly thin. Consider adding a flip open cover; it will add a bit of purchase and makes holding the Kindle a lot easier. Plus, most of these flip open covers have a magnetic catch that keeps the cover closed and puts the Kindle in standby.Using the Kindle is fairly easy once you get the gestures squared away …the biggest to learn is turning back the page because you will invariably and inadvertently advance the page when you didn’t mean to. The other thing you need to understand is you must have the Kindle app on your cell or computer; this is how you download your reading material. The Kindle is linked via Bluetooth to your download device; this is how it gets the “books” loaded to read or add to your library. To some this will be intuitive, to others (like myself) a wee bit of rocket science; call it generational.Overall, I have no complaints with the basic Kindle; it does exactly what I want and that is to offer a viable reading experience other than a book.

Title: Perfect e-reader
Review: This is the perfect size, lightweight, very easy on senior eyes, it’s my favorite ereader, I prefer it to my 7 inch paper white , much better than tablet reading, and super long battery life, this will be going with me on my travels for sure. I got the like new and couldn’t be happier with it. If you’re trying to decide I highly recommend trying it, I don’t think you will regret it.I might add , page turning takes some getting used to, very sensitive, if not done correctly it will skip ahead multiple pages, I’ve adjusted and I read so much I’ve started to take care with eye strain , I love reading on this kindle.

Title: Perfect!
Review: I have always used the Kindle app on my phone or a Fire tablet for my reading, but I recently bought a Kindle. I absolutely love it! The color, the display is fantastic, and it’s so travel-friendly, which makes reading on the go much easier. I purchased the black and matcha 🤷♀️ gotta have a backup.

Title: Simple kindle and I love it!
Review: I was using my fire either way a tablet should be used, and it’s heavy and large. I decided to swap down and just get a simple Kindle, and I love it! I only wanted it for reading books, and this one holds a charge for an amazingly long time. It’s not large, but I recently traveled with it and it was so Light and easy to carry. It fit in my purse. This is just what I wanted.

Title: the perfect gift for someone who reads alot
Review: Bought this for my daughter as a graduation present and she absolutely love it. The loved the new green color, the backlight works great for reading in low light. It is so light weight she can read for hours with no hand cramps. It was super easy to set up and use and it made the perfect gift for someone who reads 2-3 books a week.

Review: Das Kindle funktioniert wirklich sehr gut und ist einfach zu bedienen, es ist nicht langsam und man hat mit kindle unlimited eine gute Auswahl an Büchern und das herunter laden geht auch sehr schnell. Man kann Zeilen markieren was sehr praktisch ist weil man darauf wieder greifen kann. Es hat einen ausreichenden Speicherplatz.
