Introducing Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition (32 GB) – With a 6.8″ display, wireless charging, and auto-adjusting front light
Pradeep-Amazon Customer –
The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is an excellent upgrade (though it is costly) for those who own an older-generation Kindle device. It has everything a book reader wants. It has an auto-adjustable backlight, You can schedule the screen theme to Amber at a scheduled time, It has a memory of 32GB out of around 27GB is available for use. Stores more than 5000 ebooks as you can now download & copy epub format ebooks easily. The screen size is a little bigger than 6 inches which is now 6.8 inches. It can fit into your jeans pocket. it is waterproof up to 30 meters. Type C charging point is provided instead of outdated micro USB. Also, it supports wireless charging with a supported wireless charger & even a mobile phone which supports wireless charging. It is lightweight. Hence, if you are an avid book reader and prefer ebooks instead of paper books, do not hesitate to buy Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition. (Watch out for Prime Sale Day or any Amazon Sale for discounted prices.)
Cons: PDF files are not quite readable on Kindle as usual. The page should automatically fit into Kindle’s screen. I have an iPad and found that ebooks in PDF format look far better in iPad’s Kindle app than in Kindle itself to read as the pages fit into the Ipad’s big screen size evenly. For night reading you can turn on iPad’s system dark mode or the Kindle app’s Amber theme. Hence, if you read only for an hour or two daily & have an iPad, no need to buy a Kindle, just download the Kindle app on your iPad which works & looks just the same as the Kindle eBook reader, and register with your Amazon login & password, and Bingo!

The Signature Edition is placed right in between the humble Kindle (2022) and top of the line Kindle Oasis. The size is perfect and one can still hold it in one hand. The only issue that I think is the auto-adjusting front light, which doesn’t work smoothly. PDF’s are still a struggle and I have to convert most of my journal readings to other legible formats. Browsing through pages still needs some upgrade. However, it is way better than reading on a tablet or a phone, on which I find reading distracting. Even though I am not a big fan of audiobooks, Amazon could have added this feature, at least in this edition. Battery lasts for weeks and wireless charging is more of a gimmick since it charges very slow (or is it just my device?). Users are likely to use a type c-charger to get it charged quickly. The device is priced high and Amazon is trying to justify the price for added memory (32GB), auto-adjusting light, water proofing, wireless charging and a better reading experience. Thankfully, the versions in India do not have advertisements. One can wait for the big billion days for the price to go down to around 14K. Overall, it is a welcome addition to the Kindle family and I would recommend anyone who doesn’t own a Kindle to buy the signature edition, but don’t go for an upgrade if you already have a current generation kindle with 16 GB. Update: It’s been almost 16 months since I purchased it. While it is certainly an excellent device I recently charged my Kindle after the battery was completely drained out. After charging the device I tried to start the device and somehow it got stuck on the blank screen. Thankfully, After I long pressed the power button thr device started again and I was able to access my library.

I gifted it to my daughter who is voracious reader She liked it a lot. Night mode feature, selection of font size, xray to get word meaning ensures your seamless reading. Battery back up is also worth mentioning.

Getting a kindle is kind of like getting a new car. You really can’t do this every year. These things last a long time. And honest you only need to charge these kindles maybe once a year given how good the battery is.
I really love single use devices; a single book reader, a single ipod. Things like that. And the kindle is the best at what it does. Gives you a texture of a book. You carry a library everywhere you go and prime reading is amazing.
The only thing I miss with a kindle is the smell of the pages of a book so maybe amazon should work on that but other than this it is absolutely perfect.

Kindle paperwhite signature edition is a very good device. Auto Brightness sensor is a genuinely useful feature. Extra storage is not a necessity if one purchases books from Amazon but can be useful for those who like to sideload documents and PDFs for reading. Wireless charging is an extra feature and is alright. The device does not comes shipped with the new software advertised. It is running the old software which has some annoying bugs on this device. But new software will be out soon after it is ready as I read somewhere Amazon is still polishing the new software and removing bugs.
Kindle does one thing which is reading ebook in mobi ebook format (Not as good for documents and PDF when compared to a tablet or a laptop due to slow refresh rate of the display causing jittery pinch zoom when reading very small texts ) but does it very well. Based on both technical reasons as well as practical experience, I must say reading on a Kindle’s electronic ink screen is much much better than doing that on a smartphone, tablet or laptop. We can read conveniently on a kindle in all lighting conditions, even in direct sunlight, while other screens are usable only in indoor lighting conditions and not under sunlight or in a dark room.
Reading books is very important and very useful/helpful and buying books or a kindle device can be life changing. Really.
