So, I'll still send people to the regular Kindle Paperwhite, which has the right screen crispness and that waterproofing that you'll love at the beach. Is an automatically-adjusting light (which means more to me than Qi-charging) and 4x as much storage worth another $30? For me, even though I like the lighting to be adjusted for me? I don't think the answer is yes. We recommend the $139 Kindle Paperwhite to most, and I hate ads, so I've accepted that $159 is the price I'll probably pay for a Kindle.

Yes, Amazon's adding a little here and there, and so the reason to upgrade to this model will vary greatly by use case. All of these features combined would make for a compelling reason to upgrade, but the $189 Paperwhite Signature Edition delivers sticker shock for anyone who remembers the $129 Paperwhite (2018). While USB-C and display warmth are nice updates, the rising price of the Paperwhite Kindle feels annoying. I wish the Paperwhite Signature Edition was just the Paperwhite 2021.

Members also can access two free Kindle books per month, and get access to discounted print editions. Prime members can take advantage of First Reads (formerly Kindle First), which grants early access to editor's picks. In case you're not made of money, the Kindle Paperwhite still supports borrowing books from public libraries for free, using the Overdrive service. "It's always thinking," I told myself.Īmazon's also got other ways to give you books, such as the $9.99 Kindle Unlimited, a Netflix-for-books with "over 2 million titles and thousands of audiobooks." They even throw in three magazine subscriptions. As I moved around on my sofa one night, I saw brightness shift a bit here and there to adjust.
As someone who can get lazy enough to prefer his tech to take some of the work away? This is a nice touch. As I brought the Paperwhite Signature Edition around my apartment, I saw its brightness jump from 5 to 16 points of brightness, depending on the ambient lighting. The automatically-adjusting brightness, however, is an upgrade. The entry-level Amazon Kindle has a 167 ppi screen, and Kindle Oasis and B&N Nook Glowlight 4 are also at 300ppi. The resolution is no upgrade, as Kindles dating back to 2015 have had this sharp screen quality.

It's got amazingly evenly-lit backlighting (17 LEDs vs 2018's five LEDs), plus a perfectly crisp 300ppi screen, so that text looks great at all sizes, which I noticed as I tried to start She Who Became The Sun by Shelley Parker Chan (which didn't click with me). The Paperwhite Signature Edition's 6.8-inch, 300 ppi display is nearly identical to that of the 2021 Paperwhite. The Paperwhite Signature Edition weighs 7.3 ounces (a hair heavier than the 7.2-ounce Paperwhite 2021), a tad heavier than the 6.4-ounce Paperwhite 2018. If you want more space to grip, you may prefer the Amazon Kindle Oasis' design, which has an asymmetrical design, with page turning buttons. I didn't find this made it harder to hold, but the slightly thinner bezels made me have to hold it in different ways to avoid actuating the screen. That larger screen comes at a slight price on size: the Paperwhite Signature Edition (just like the normal Paperwhite) measures 6.9 x 4.9 x 0.3 inches, making it slightly larger than the 6.6 x 4.6 x 0.3-inch 2018 Paperwhite.
Barnes & Noble's new Nook Glowlight 4 has a 6-inch panel. Both feature a matte-black shell and 6.8-inch e-ink display, which is larger than the 6-inch screen in the previous Paperwhite. The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition looks just like the Kindle Paperwhite (2021), so much so that I kept getting them confused. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition review: Design Looking at the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition like this, the Qi-charging and automatically-adjusting lights are bonuses.Īmazon no longer offers a cellular-capable Paperwhite, a feature exclusive to the $249 Kindle Oasis. As you may have noticed, Amazon's added two features (32GB of RAM and no ads) that it would normally charge $50 for.
