Customer Reviews Summary

Someone asked me recently why I would own a Kindle when you can read books on phones, tablets, etc. For me, this is the perfect reading device: Of course for this one the colour screen is the big change from the standard Kindles and it really is a nice addition. See the book covers in colour, including on the lock screen, is more satisfying than I would have thought. And of course illustrations etc in colour is so much better.But back to the question: Why not just read on a phone or tablet, as they are colour anyway? There are a number of reasons:* Battery life: I have had this device for three weeks, I never turn it off, and it’s still at 74% charge* Easy on the eyes: A nicely-lit e-ink page is so much easier on the eye than a phone or tablet. It really does feel like I’m reading a page in a normal book under optimal lighting conditions* Lightweight & form factor: It’s lighter than any of my tablet devices, and the form factor is just like a book. It feels so much more like I’m reading a book than it does when I’m using a tablet or phone* No distractions: This is a reading device and that’s it. I am never tempted to check social media, or the news, and I don’t get notifications. I much prefer this, again it’s like reading a real book.What about the colour-band issues that early users reported? Well, my device doesn’t have these issues at all, it seems they have fixed whatever the issue was with the launch versions of the device.Can you tell I like it? :-) I really do. Is there any downside? For me, none that I can think of apart from justifying a fair bit of money for a reading device. I got a good discount from my old Kindle trade-in though, and for me it’s worth every penny. Love it.
