Title: So happy I got it
Review: Iâve been using my kindle from 2011 for almost 15 years. I knew it was time for an upgrade because I was in desperate need of a backlight. This kindle model is perfect: light, small, and crisp. This is exactly what I wanted, and the matcha green is so cute. Iâm very pleased. I was worried that this kindle would be like the paperwhites, which to me feel very tablet like, but nope. This is as true to the original kindle as possible, with a very matte screen thatâs perfect for outdoor reading. I havenât had it long so canât speak to the battery life, but would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a simple e-reader without all the bells and whistles.

Title: Compact size, nice bezel to grip, less glare!
Review: I was hoping for an Oasis replacement with this new launch, but sadly we didnât get another device with premium finishes and page turn buttons. The Scribe is too big for me, I sent it back after 2 days, and it wasnât worth purchasing another Paper White just for the color screen, especially when I was already a bit dissatisfied with the paper white signature edition I already have. The paper white bezel is very narrow all the way around, and it makes it a little tedious to hold.The basic kindle is great to hold onto for hours at a time. Itâs weighs very little, and I love the bezel. Thereâs no glare on the bezel because of the textured matte finish, which also means the bezel is not constantly covered in finger prints. Dark mode works great. Thereâs no flashing between page turns. I donât personally miss the automatic light adjustment, because I usually had to adjust it myself anyway. I donât miss the waterproofing because I donât usually take my kindle anywhere near the water. (And if it does get wet itâs not too expensive to replace.) Iâve never used the wireless charging on my paperwhite, so I donât miss that. I donât even really notice the screen being smaller. I do wish it had the warm light, but itâs not a deal breaker for me. Itâs worth it to have a device thatâs lightweight, has a good bezel to hold onto, and isnât constantly covered in fingerprints.Overall itâs wonderful to hold for extended periods of time. The matcha color is beautiful, and the matching case is very nice!

Title: Love It
Review: This is a really nice kindle. I find the screen to be crisp and clear, and not having warm light doesnât matter to me so I appreciate that itâs less expensive. I absolutely love the away it looks and the matcha color. My favorite things is that itâs small enough and lightweight so I can hold it in one hand while I read.

Title: Kindle: Instant Reading, Perfectly Portable
Review: I opened it, and within a minute, I was reading. It instantly recognized my Wi-Fi network, syncing automatically based on my other Amazon products. The size is smaller than I expected, but the reading experience is flawless. Plus, it fits right in my pants pocket, making it increfibly convenient.

Title: Love it mostly!
Review: I love the matcha green color, I love the 6-inch size and the minimal weight of this kindle. The only thing that bugs me is the fact that the backlight is so blue and there is no way to warm it up. However, I like the form factor so much more than the Paperwhite that Iâm hoping I get used to the cold blue glow. Everything else about it is great.

Title: It's trash! I returned it for refund!
Review: It is light-weight because is it a cheesy piece of plastic garbage! This garbage was delivered at 4:15 AM this morning and I charged it immediately and began downloading my kindle books after 3 hours of charging from 60% to 100%. I started downloading my kindle library 12 hours ago. After 277 books downloaded, the kindle reader stopped downloading. I have a great internet connection, but this kindle will not download any more books, so I returned it for refund.Scrolling the library is slow! Opening books is slow! Turning pages is slow! This piece of garbage is JUST SLOW!This supposedly 16GB device, had 10 GB of 11.50 GB available. 11.50 GB is a long way from 16 GB.The only good thing about this garbage device is its nice green color. Big f***ing deal! It's a pretty piece of trash!After the first 12 hours, I left this kindle reader downloading for 5 additional hours and it downloaded on two additional books. I'm returning it for a refund.My 10-year-old kindle works much better than this garbage.I do not recommend this kindle reader!
