Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition (32 GB) – Our fastest Kindle with an auto-adjusting front light, wireless charging and weeks of battery life – Metallic Raspberry

Love it! Was a bit wary of letting my (very) old kindle go but glad I have. Quick page turning, clear reading with adjustable light. Clear pics of books owned and easy to get a reminder of what they are about. Love the fact it says whether read or how much you have read too. Lots and lots of storage! Chose the Jade green version, even though I am not really a 'green' person, but such a pretty green, very pleased with it. Extremely light to hold. Getting used to the ways to open books, read books, return to books etc was a little confusing for me but it is all very clever. Only downside for me was the price of the Amazon covers so have purchased compatible ones which are just as good and a better price.

Have had a kindle for many years and finally updated on a whim. So far so good. Easy to setup and lovely colour. Good storage capacity on the device as have hundreds of books on there. Screen is bigger and even clearer than previous kindle. Solid bit of kit and works with calibre as well as the native methods for transferring books. Power/transfer now on usb c which is great - no more trying to work out which way up the cable goes. Page turning works perfectly and also works with my page turner widget as well. Overall very sturdy and great performance as always has been on Kindle’s.

Update: So after having this kindle for a week, I just couldn’t get on with it. Something wasn’t right with it. It did still have minor ghosting but the text seemed unclear. It was a strain. I called Amazon who offered replacement because I couldn’t accept refund due to a discount code I used and wouldn’t get back! Replacement came and I was stunned at how much worse it was compared to mine. I have attached photos where you can clearly see the same brightness settings but the replacement has a yellow screen without the warmth on!! 3rd try, phoned amazon again who didn’t really understand what I was talking about but sent me another replacement. This 3rd kindle made everything fall into place. It was white. I hadn’t realised that my original was grey. Text was crisper and ghosting not a thing. It’s pretty much perfect.It disappoints me that Amazon haven’t got this right. They did not push out a consistent product and should have recalled them. I will also warn you that Amazon will send you a replacement but it will be REFURBISHED as this is part of their warranty agreement. This to me is a bit of a joke given that I bought brand new and am keeping a second hand one. I have agreed to this because it’s better than my original and I know it can’t be older than October but I think it’s shoddy. It really is pot luck on the quality of what kindle you receive. I have left the 5 stars because I love my new (refurbished) kindle. But Amazon as a company get 2 stars now.3rd photo is my original with 1st replacement4th photo original(top) 1st replacement then last replacement which I kept.Original review:Received this for Xmas (which I arranged)! Got it for a great price, Black Friday PLUS traded in my old paper white 5th gen so got an extra 20% off. I went for the SE version for the auto light adjust. I really wanted the colorsoft but have been closely monitoring the reviews and I just wasn’t prepared to risk it. I had also been closely monitoring the reviews of this kindle too. The main faults being a yellow hue, dead pixels or ghosting. I will say that researching is good but in my case I over did it and so…When I opened this on Xmas morning the very first thing I did was QC myself, probably better than what Amazon have been doing! I was looking for the faults and to my despair it had bad ghosting. I was so disappointed. I could clearly see the book covers in the background of the next page. I did call Amazon and their robot told me they wouldn’t replace as they’re out of stock but I had time to request for exchange so I left it.There was a software update but I had to do this manually which is very easy to do, as it wasn’t showing on my kindle yet. I had also researched ghosting and apparently this is normal for any eink display (within reason) I just didn’t remember my old one doing this.For whatever reason my kindle is FINE now. The ghosting seems to have settled. This might be because it’s been sitting in its box a long time and now it’s being used it’s ok. It could have something to do with the update but I don’t think so. Yes, there is very minor ghosting now but I really have to look for it otherwise I wouldn’t notice. I wish I had read a review which said “it might be ok after a few hours use” which is why I wanted to leave this here! Bad form from Amazon for all the kindle issues, I assume they wanted it pushed out for Black Friday before Xmas but that’s just not good enough for these expensive devices.Things I love on this kindle are the warm light. Makes such a difference if you’ve never had it. The auto adjust. Love that I can go to bed and it just sorts itself out in the darkness. Dark mode is cool. The colour (jade) beautiful. Page turn animations are fancy and it is super speedy. I can actually search for a book in the store without waiting a whole minute for each letter to catch up!My only con is their current reputation!Hope this helps some people because I really love mine now. I have included some photos of the ghosting I was seeing but this has resolved!

This is the first kindle I have ever had the pleasure of owning and I am so happy with it. I love to read and at first before I bought my kindle, I was a bit unsure about getting one as I tried to read books on my phone and I found it really difficult so at first I thought that reading from a kindle would be the same, however I was wrong. I have had my kindle for a month now and it is glued to my hand. I love it. I suffer with severe mental health and anxiety and reading is my escape when I am mentally struggling. I got the metallic raspberry one and it is truly a stunning colour, the battery lasts a long time and it charges so fast which is good considering how much I use it on a daily basis. I would recommend a kindle to anyone who loves to read like I do, for me - it isn’t a hobby, it keeps me calm. For £189, some can ask if it is worth it and my answer will always be ABSOLUTELY 100%!!!! There’s nothing better than sitting in peace with a cup of tea and my kindle especially when my sons are asleep and I sit with my Xmas tree lights on which I also use as a calming tool when I am over stimulated and dysregulated. I have also now ordered the matching case and the wireless docking charger which comes tomorrow. Depending where I’m reading, I also like the fact I can change the light settings so I’m not straining my eyes if reading in the dark. Kindle unlimited is definitely a must as you have millions of books at your fingertips. Kindle unlimited has something for everyone but I’m a dark romance and smut reader so the kindle is perfect, I don’t have to carry around a physical book. The kindle screen itself is really fast in terms of turning the pages back and forth, it’s easy to find new books to read after you’ve finished your current read. If you have young children, you can put a passcode on it so they can’t play around on it and you can also have a kids profile on it if sharing with them but my kids aren’t allowed to touch mine. Definitely worth the money if you read a lot like I do.
