How the Kindle Paperwhite Makes Every Page Turn Feel Natural
Carrying a Kindle Paperwhite, priced at $134.99 (was $159.99), in one’s hands everyday acts as a constant reminder of what makes this device a must-have for bookworms. This e-reader weighs only 7 oz, hence why it seems like something that the device could float as it easily fits into one’s pockets or bag without them knowing.
To kick things off, it attempts to create the real page-turning experience, and compared to a regular book, it would be like day and night difference. The new model has 300 pixels per inch, outperforming its predecessor and rendering texts as clear as a crystal in direct sunshine, making it a lifesaver for readers like myself who love to read outside. Finally, the device’s backlight works well, since it automatically adjusts based on the illumination in the room you’re reading in, and there’s even a feature that turns the brightness into a warmer color when you read late at night.
The pages flip 25% faster than in the previous version, and all menus appear instantly. It is 20% faster, which is fairly astonishing, especially for those who read books, since they will not be bored or frustrated by the time it takes to turn the pages. Also, the touch response is exceptionally fast, so it does not interfere with the reader’s perspective when reading. The battery performance provides 12 weeks of reading time for 30 minutes of reading per day without WiFi or lighting. The recharge will just take 2.5 hours.
Among other advantages, IPX8 waterproof technology ensures that you can use it even in the rain or while taking a bath without damage. Furthermore, it can withstand immersion in 2 meters of fresh water for an hour, allowing you to take it to a pool, beach, or simply bathe. In addition, the Paperwhite has a large amount of storage space; 16 GB of built-in memory allows for the storage of thousands of books. A Wi-Fi connection enables you to connect to your library in minute, or if you want to listen to an audiobook, simply turn on Bluetooth.
