Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Don't be alarmed by the overall somewhat low rating: people need to read the product description of what they're buying. No, this isn't backlit. No, this isn't 3G. This is the standard basic Kindle, it does what it's supposed to do and it's amazing at it. Super light and sleek, I got the white one and I'm in love with it. I do own an iPad so if I want to read in the dark I just use that or my cell phone (do use sepia mode and turn on night shift to spare your eyes a bit). I also know very well the differences between this one and the Paperwhite because my mother owns one, and even comparing both, I would still go with this one. Great device, great resolution and great price (if you want to get rid of the special offers later on, just contact customer service and pay the difference, but they're really no bother). I'm extremely happy with my purchase!
