One of its best features is it's no-fuss reading interface, which gets out of your way when it's time to read (Amazon could do this, and we wish it would). And while the Nook Glowlight 4 isn't better than any Kindle, it's got minor tweaks and updates that give us reason to give it some attention here. Īmazon doesn't run the whole e-reader world, so we occasionally test competitors' e-readers. Read our full Amazon Kindle Kids Edition review. Oh and it's even got helpful vocabulary building tools and a free year (a $60 value) of Amazon's Amazon Kids+ (fka FreeTime Unlimited), which has thousands of titles. The Kindle Kids Edition was so popular that Amazon's making a Kindle Paperwhite Kids Edition, which we will review soon. You get the same 6-inch, 167 ppi display and front lighting, and the display is still inset, not flush with the frame. Otherwise, the Kindle Kids Edition is the same tablet as the 2019 Kindle. In fact, the Kids Edition is so close to our ideal Kindle interface, we wish Amazon would offer it as a mode for adults who just want to read the book, and not dabble in the Goodreads community. Even better, there are no lock screen ads. Kids will like it for the colored cases, while parents will love Amazon's 2-year no-questions-asked warranty. Īmazon's latest Kindle improves on the $90 Kindle by adding what's missing and chipping away at the cruft that fills up a regular Kindle. Read our full Amazon Kindle (2022) review. Unless you really need a waterproof Kindle, it’s tough to advocate spending more than the $100 you'll pay for a new Amazon Kindle (2022). It’s lightweight and comfortable to hold, the display is bright and crisp - a massive improvement over earlier models - and the battery lasts for ages. Ultimately though, the Kindle 2022 is probably the best Kindle for most people.
Admittedly, if Amazon fixed those things there would be no reason to get the Paperwhite, so while we're disappointed we aren't shocked. Also, our reviewer missed having the option adjust the warmth of the display light, another minor but meaningful Paperwhite feature - though if you’re fine with using dark mode it’s easy to move past that shortcoming. The fact that the Kindle 2022 isn’t waterproof is probably the biggest differentiator between it and the more expensive Paperwhite. That’s not to say there aren’t improvements that could be made. Being locked into Amazon’s ecosystem is a drag, but you can’t really knock the Kindle for that. The Amazon Kindle (2022) is nearly a perfect device for what it is, and some of its flaws are more down to Amazon than the device itself.
