Gone is the handy warm lighting around the E Ink display that makes reading a little easier on the eyes when it’s dark, and there are fewer LEDs so the lighting isn’t quite as even. There are, of course, sacrifices to be made to hit that lower price. For comparison, the Kindle is actually shorter than an iPhone 14 Pro Max and only an inch-or-so wider. It’s also the most compact, taking up less space in a bag and even fitting in larger pockets. Here there’s a 6-inch panel (rather than 7-inches), making this e-reader feel far more comfortable to hold with one hand than any other currently available Kindle.

With this version, there’s now no reason to pay more just for a sharp screen and that’s great to see. The previous base Kindle always suffered with a slightly blurry screen thanks to the meagre 167ppi resolution – it was perfectly adequate for the price, yet it couldn’t compete when compared to the Paperwhite.

The sharper resolution makes everything you do on the Kindle look better: text in books and throughout the interface is sharper, cover art is crisper and it’s all just a little easier on the eyes. This upgrade is the display, which now matches the Paperwhite at 300 pixels-per-inch (PPI). The Kindle (2022) picks up one major upgrade over its predecessor that makes this both a fantastic upgrade to an older model and a valid alternative to the higher-end Paperwhite. Very sharp panel renders text fantastically well.A smaller display than Paperwhite makes it more compact.Failing to do so will end up on your post being removed and/or your account banned.
