I found some Kindle Basic 7th Gen in my country and they're pretty much the cheapest I can find

I don't want to spend more since I only going to use it for fanfic (downloaded from AO3 or somewhere else)

Thanks in advance

Supposed to be in 2 days. I am a happy Scribe 1 fan and look forward to getting the software update. However, I am sad with the colorsoft launch it could hurt the chances.

No reviews yet

Are you aware of any disadvantages of kindle in Canada and can I ask what apps you are using?

Thx!

I just bought a oasis 9th gen secondhand, and it came with a screen protector. Is the screen without a protector reflective and glassy? I see my reflection while reading in normal and dark mode and it sort of bugs me, I wasn’t sure if that’s how the screen normally looks.

As far as I can tell, I've played with all the settings on this thing. Did they really not think to allow text wrapping when you zoom in and make the font bigger? Hopefully I'm missing something because this has to be the biggest oversight in the universe!

Have tried it in portrait and landscape orientations and I'm having to scroll left and right to finish sentence. Annoying AF and I'm returning this thing if this is how it's going to be. My older kindle did this fine!

hii, I ordered the kindle matcha close to the original release (left), but I ordered the one with ads because I didn’t want to spent the extra $20. Since Black Friday deals had the ad-free version at the same price I paid & my return window was still open, I ordered the ad-free version (right) and was planning to just return the original one I bought. However, when I was setting it up today, I noticed that the ad version (left) has a bit more warmth to it, which color is it supposed to be? Debating which one I should keep

I bought the 2024 kindle paperwhite last month and haven’t been able to access the kindle store at all. I’ve tried all the recommendations I can find. Reset, checked wifi, checked country settings, registered, etc.

I'm trying to convert Kindle books to TXT using Calibre, but when I try to do it, I just got random letters. Which file should I be entering into Calibre to convert it, how should I find the file, and what option should I click?

This might be an overly specific ask but I’d like to buy a kindle skin and case, but preferably from a small business on etsy or something. I’m having trouble sorting through the thousands of drop-shipped etsy posts so I wanted to see if anyone had some recommendations.

TIA!

I want to get my 14yo a kindle for Christmas. I DO NOT want to give her unfettered access to the internet. If the browser sucks and can’t really look at anything, I’m cool with that. She has a phone and a laptop but both have parental controls. If the browser can be used to access general google and open whatever google brings up, may need to go another direction.

Hi, I'm from Spain and I recently got my mom a Kindle. We share the same Amazon account and she reads stuff I don't really like and viceversa. We'd like to have a Kindle of our own without necessarily sharing all the books, I've read about Amazon Household and how you can disable sharing a specific book, but here in Spain we don't have Household yet.

What should I do? Would creating a new account and linking my mom's Kindle to it be a good idea?

Wondering what the size difference is between the basic kindle and an iPhone 11 pro (or any iPhone) looking for a picture comparison

Is the one that’s $84.99 the only one with no yellow bar currently?

I think I’m gonna return my 2nd Colorsoft because I don’t like that they made the whole screen warmer to mask the yellow bar rather than fixing the issue. I don’t want to go back to my Oasis though because I hate the shape (especially now that I’ve gotten used to the shape of the Colorsoft). Which one is safe to buy until Amazon gets it together?

Thank you for being awesome, seeing such positive posts have really helped my mental health. Also seeing people so into reading is amazing!
I also wanted to ask, how many people are using Libby to read library books? That was the whole reason I got my paperwhite and i've been addicted. I've been able to read one of my fave series again!

Anyway, thanks all for coming to my Ted talk!

Its a magnetic flip case to protect the screen but with a partially clear back for stickers and fun print outs

Got this felt tablet pouch for padded protection a while back, before the case, and just added a sweet new patch to it!

Ive had my kindle for about 2 years now and there hasn't been a single day i don't use it.

Serious question! I’ve had my kindle basic for a week, and I lock and unlock it multiple times a day with the button. Has anyone’s button ever broken or stopped working? It’s a very big concern of mine lol

I hadn’t read for pleasure for over 15 years (I stopped around hs when my depression started). I’ve obviously read for school and college, and still do for my post graduate studies but Now at 31 im FLYING through my first book for pleasure because of this wonderful device. And I can’t put it down!!!! Obsessed.

Which do you recommend? I’m going to buy my first ever kindle- all the videos I watch don’t compare the two. Thoughts? Is the paper white worth the extra money?

I went in today and I have 46 books. I used to have about 500 on there. They’ve just gone!

Has this happened to anyone else? Should I just reset? All suggestions welcomed!

Hi all,

I recently ordered two Kindle Paperwhite SE and they are both having yellow bar on the screen. I already returned the first one, and here is the landscape view for the second one:

Kindle

The top left corner is yellow compared to the rest of the screen.

I asked the customer service and they are saying there is no estimated timeline for replacement or fix.

Customer service said no estimated time for replacement

Does anyone recently ask for the replacement in the US? I wonder if they stop giving out replacement since a lot of new devices are having the similar problems. Thanks in advance.

Compre el último modelo del Kindle Basic 6" del 2024, vivo en Venezuela y no consigo la funda, pero me han dicho que la del modelo 2022 le sirve.

¿Alguien que de casualidad tenga los dos modelos, me puede decir si son compatible?

Why can my husband see all of my books on a family share plan when I have marked all of them not to be shared….? I’ve like quadruple checked my settings and nothing is shared, and yet he can still see all my books.

Always thought I should get a Kindle. After waiting for really no reason at all this was the deal that finally did it. Pretty cool!

He doesn’t care if I pose him because he knows after he gets to snuggle under the blanket while I read.

I’ve been considering a kindle for some time now, but I don’t want to spend a lot of money on something that isn’t worth it. They seem cool, but I question it since I have an apple iPad that can be used for ebook reading (kindle, Libby, hoopla). Is there any benefit to being a kindle owner? What are your thoughts on the overall value of the product?

I really want an oasis but don't really know how much they normally go for used. Is this worth it?

Compared to my old 10th Generation, this is larger, much faster and more responsive. It's the gorgeous metallic raspberry. I ordered a simple clear case to protect for now. There is no yellow line across the bottom although the color is quite a bit warmer even at 0 warmth. My family got it for my birthday and sent it early! I'm a Christmas Bday.

Is the consensus that these are a warmer back light than previous versions?
