They still sell paperwhites but they make a new one every couple years

They tell you what the conditions are that they advertise it under. More use == more power use. It's simple: If you read more than they tested, or turn on the wifi, or use brighter lighting, your battery life will drop. If you double the amount of time reading per day you can probably halve the battery life. What's even close to false about their advertising?

> A single charge lasts up to six (6) weeks, based on a half hour of reading per day with wireless off and the light setting at 13. Battery life will vary based on light settings, wireless usage. Audible audiobook streaming over Bluetooth will reduce battery life.

Honestly I just like posting smile links and I always pull out any extra info without thinking about it too much.


Either the info in the referral code was incorrect (e.g. someone copy and pasted the link from their browser and already got referred from an ad, etc.) or someone is trying to monitor traffic from this specific link. Even if nobody is making money off of it, I prefer the privacy of anonymity if nothing else. It's much more that I just shorten links out of habit.


I just visited this site in an incognito browser:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CXG6C9W/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_c_x_2_w?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-2&pf_rd_r=49CB05S34GV4TEQR40AR&pf_rd_r=49CB05S34GV4TEQR40AR&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=363fd2ff-dd2c-47dd-a3f8-cdc869e36adc&pf_rd_p=363fd2ff-dd2c-47dd-a3f8-cdc869e36adc&pf_rd_i=6669702011

but if I were going to share it, I would send:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CXG6C9W/


I haven't bothered to look at how the links to specific searches/departments/etc. urls are generated so they get trimmed less. My original link likely has extraneous info, but my product links are nice and tidy.


EDIT: Also, I personally look at the url before visiting, so I figure if I'm going to shorten it for myself I might as well share it while I'm at it.

The Paperwhite, but not sure which generation .... I just know it was the newest model in November 2017 because it was an Xmas gift. If storage space is an issue for you, I just saw that they've released a new one with 8gb and 32gb options. I currently have nearly 1000 books loaded on there and still have only used like 0.5gb.

If it was $60 for Prime Day, you were probably looking the the All New Kindle with front light, not the Kindle Paperwhite. The Paperwhite was on sale for $85 I believe. They both have a front lit screen, but the Paperwhite has a sharper screen (300ppi vs 167 ppi, makes a fairly big difference) and waterproofing.

Kindles will definitely go on sale again (they usually do at least every few months) so you could wait it out. Your only other option would be to buy a slightly older model used. Maybe an older generation paperwhite or basic kindle. Amazon has a refurbished model of an older basic Kindle (167ppi, no front light) for $60 that will be in stock soon, if you want something sooner rather than later.

I think if you are able to, you should at least spring for the $90 All New Kindle with frontlight, or wait for another sale on it at least. It's really nice to have the front light, even if you don't think you need it. But that's entirely up to you.

EDIT: also a side note, there is a big difference between the back-lit screens of phones/tablets and front lit Kindles. The front lighting is easier on the eyes since it's directed down at the page instead of up into your face. So don't let this stop you from getting a front lit Kindle, it is still very easy on the eyes.

If you're willing to jump through a hoop or two to move ebooks around on your own, then it's more a question of what you're looking for in an e-reader...and a backlight doesn't reduce your possibilities as much as you'd think. That still covers the Kindle Paperwhite (and/or Oasis, albeit with ads on the lock screen AIUI), or the Nook Glowlight 3, or the Kobo Aura 2...and those are indeed the major players. There are also models like the Boyue Likebook Mars and Onyx Boox Note out there if you're wanting something more platform-agnostic (sort of, since they're openly Android-based).

That said, with my admittedly limited experience with e-readers, it probably comes down to three questions:

  1. How much do you want to spend on an e-reader? (For all intents, the low end starts at about $100 USD unless you catch a sale.)
  2. How large an e-reader do you want? (The vast majority are 6"; you then jump to 7.8", then to around 10").
  3. What bells and whistles do you want? (As in how much internal storage space it has, backlighting and/or the ability to tweak same, whether it has an SD card slot, audiobook capability--which you already said was not a factor--and so on.)

Well PW4 is newer and lighter. I don't know about the light uniformity between these 2 devices.

Specs wise you can just compare them.

It's easy enough to remove the affiliate link junk from an Amazon URL.

Find the part that looks like this: ".../B07CXG6C9W?..." and remove the ? and everything after it. Done, no longer an affiliate link.

u/jim653 · 1 pointr/ereader

When you go to buy a Kindle on Amazon's site, the "Add to cart" button is a "Customise and add to cart" button. Click on that, and it takes you to this page, where you can choose to buy a Kindle with or without special offers. There's even a "Learn more" link that summons a pop-up that explicitly explains what pop-ups are. Even if you mistakenly buy a Kindle with special offers, you can get them removed later and it won't have cost you any more than if you had bought the non-offers version to start with. It's not a hidden add-on cost – if you want to view ads, those ads will subsidise the cost of the Kindle.

Looks like it has BT to me. By "it" I mean the standard edition.

I have a Kindle Paperwhite, latest version w/ 8GB. Purchased 2 months ago, used like twice 'cause I like physical books more.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CXG6C9W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Looking for $100 for it. DM if you're interested.

u/dh42com · 1 pointr/nashville

129.99 USD, not bad for a paperwhite with a cellular radio.
