Review of Amazon’s Kindle e-readers

After years of research and development, versions of Kindle are becoming more and more perfect. And really, at this point Amazon’s kindle reader products are almost unmatched in the market.

The reviews of the Amazon Kindle product lines below will help you make the most informed choice when deciding to invest money to buy an e-reader.

The first advantage to mention of all current Kindles is that all of Amazon’s Kindle e-readers use E-Ink technology. This is the technology that makes the Kindle’s screen appear like a paper book.

The nature of this E-Ink technology is completely different from that of tablet screens. And the E-Ink screen has no backlight at all. That means if you go into the dark, you won’t be able to read the book.

Amazon fixes this in the product by adding a glow light to the edge of the screen. When it’s dark, you can turn on the small lights that run along the sides of the Kindle screen to read books.​

The second outstanding feature of Amazon Kindle e-reader products is the battery that often lasts for weeks without needing to be charged.

Most of Amazon’s Kindle line has a battery that lasts at least 2-3 weeks (if you read for about 30 minutes – 1 hour / day). As for the Kindle Oasis product line, the battery can last for several months. And the Amazon Kindle is one of the longest-lasting portable technology products out there without needing to be charged.

Whether you’re traveling for a long time or going on a long business trip, you can rest assured that you will always be able to use your Kindle reader whenever you have time to spare.

Store thousands of books

Amazon’s Kindle e-readers all have 4 GB of memory. In which, the memory that can be used to store books is about 3 GB. With this capacity, you can store thousands of books on Amazon Kindle.

It has never been so easy to carry an entire library of books in a device that is only about 200g. You will be able to read books anytime and anywhere. Plus, using Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited or Prime service, you can read millions of titles for a very low monthly fee.

Compare Amazon Kindle e-readers

In terms of hardware, there are not too many differences between the Kindle e-readers. Here are the key differences between the Amazon Kindle lines.

  1. Screen light

Of the four Kindle lines that Amazon is still selling, NEW – Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Voyage and Kindle Oasis, there is the NEW line – Kindle ($ 79.99) is the line without the screen light. Other product lines are backlit and can be read in the dark.

This means you can only read books on NEW – Kindle in places with natural light/light. If you buy this product, you should buy a small reading light to attach to your Kindle when reading at night.

Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Voyage and Kindle Oasis products all have screen lights and the number of lights increases from 4 to 10 lights depending on the model. With 4 screen lights, Kindle Paperwhite still does the perfect job of helping you read in the dark.

  1. Kindle screen resolution

With 6 Inch screen, the resolution of NEW – Kindle is 167 ppi. Other Kindles have a resolution of 300 ppi. Really, most people won’t notice the difference in screen resolution of the Kindle lines.

Only when you pay close attention will you see a slight difference in the display quality of the NEW – Kindle and other Kindle e-readers. And even with a resolution of 167 ppi, the NEW – Kindle still does a good job, helping you read books easily.

  1. Wifi and 3G connection

All Kindle models support Wifi connection. From the Kindle Paperwhite line up, there is a version that supports 3G connectivity at a slightly higher price than the version with only Wifi connection.

However, the Kindle does not have a Sim slot and only supports 3G connectivity for users in the US. Therefore, in Vietnam you will not be able to use the 3G connection feature of the Kindle series. If you buy a Kindle, don’t choose the version that supports 3G connectivity.

  1. Weight and size

All four of Amazon’s current Kindle lines have 6-inch screens. Therefore, the size difference between these e-readers is negligible.

In terms of weight, the Kindle Oasis is the lightest version, only 131 g. Compared to the Kindle Paperwhite 205 g, the Oasis is actually quite a bit lighter. With such a weight, even when lying down to read a book, it will take a long time to feel tired when using Kindle Oasis.
