6/18/2023 0 Comments Kindle paperwhite 10th gen![]() ![]() With the price options in mind, there is only one variant of the Kindle: Wifi only and 4GB Storage. Don’t read in the bath or by the pool and you should be fine. This does make sense as the point of the Kindle is to be super cheap. There is no water proofing in the 10th Gen Kindle, but is available on the pricier models. It isn’t that great since the 300 ppi in the paper-white and Oasis blows this one out of the water… Other Features The 6″ screen’s resolution is at 167 ppi, which is the same as the previous generation of Kindle. While not the brightest backlight, it gets the job done in situations when you absolutely need it. As I am not much of a LED fan in e-ink readers, this isn’t much of a problem. The brightness of the screen does not have any kind of auto settings, this is only restricted to the Oasis. Neither 4 or 5 LEDs come close to the 12 found in the Kindle Oasis, but is a lot better than having none. ![]() However since the paper-white increased the LEDs to 5, the Kindle has joined the backlight party by including 4 LEDs. ![]() This was previously reserved for the more expensive options such as the paper-white and the oasis. This is the area with the biggest change in the latest Kindle. This was a bit of a letdown as while holding the device one handed you can definitely feel it. It also feels even less like a unibody than the paper white, because it has this join on the side of the device. Having said that, the look may not be for everyone. It also prevents you from making accidental swipes. Personally as a user of the Paper White, I prefer having the slightly raised bezels, it gives you a clear indication of where the screen is. The bezels are raised from the screen which gives you a bit of grip to hold on to. If you had a kindle before you might even ask, what has changed? And you would be right. Not much has changed in the design of the kindle. Let’s not mess about and jump into the review. From the outside things might be the same but don’t judge an ebook reader by its exterior, ok that saying doesn’t translate well to the Kindle. The kings of the ebook readers, Amazon, are back with an update to the Kindle. ![]()
