New tricks with hidden issues
Screen has a blue tint to it that was not present on the previous generation that makes reading in the dark feel like you are reading a laptop. The power switch is (again) akwardly positioned where you would rest your pinky except this time the amazon case does not inhibit you from constantly pressing the button. I was very excited to get the new model but reading in the dark at night is where I use my Kindle most and this generation is a downgrade for that purpose. Blue light screen does not dim as much as the previous generation and the case is lower quality.
