Amazon Kindle review (2019): The Paperwhite gets a run for its money

After years in the darkness, the more affordable Kindle finally gets an illuminated display. This squeezes the gap between this and the Paperwhite to the point where you'll really have to want waterproofing or more storage to justify paying the higher...

Finally a front light screen on the lower-end Kindle ; Improved contrast display ; Smaller and sleeker design

Only one storage option ; Recessed display will catch dust and dirt ; Not waterproof

Amazon Kindle review (2019)

Amazon has a new Kindle, and it costs just $90. You get 4GB of internal storage to store all your books. There's also Bluetooth in case you want to use Audible to listen instead of read, and the 6-inch screen is perfect for travel. If you're an avid...

Affordable ; Lightweight, easy to hold with one hand ; Adjustable front light ; Long battery life ; Smart features while reading, like X-Ray

Screen isn’t very sharp ; No auto brightness, blue-light filter ; No water resistance

If you want a simple, effective ebook reader, the all-new Amazon Kindle is the best you can buy.

Amazon Kindle (2019) Review

What kind of a Kindle reader are you? If you're the large-type sort, the new low-cost Kindle ($89.99) is all the ebook reader you need. It now packs a front light, so you can read in the dark without bothering anyone around you. For most people,...

Front light. Similar performance to other Kindles.

Not waterproof. Relatively low-resolution screen. Dated design.

The latest low-cost Kindle improves night reading with its front light, but the slightly more expensive Paperwhite offers better overall value for most readers.

Kindle 2019 review: The entry-level Amazon reader goes after the Paperwhite

Although the Paperwhite remains the Kindle to get, the cheapest model now includes an integrated light and an improved design makes it much more appealing.

The Kindle (2019) has a refined, compact design and is the most affordable Kindle with an integrated light. Base storage bumps up to 4GB. Bluetooth audio is on board for audiobooks. Minor updates enhance Amazon's already best-in-class reader experience.

A little more expensive than the previous model. The ad-free version costs $20 more.

Although the Paperwhite remains the Kindle to get, the cheapest Kindle now includes an integrated light, plus an improved design that makes it more appealing.

Amazon Kindle 2019 Review: A brighter ereader

Amazon's $90 Kindle is out to eat the Kindle Paperwhite's lunch. Adding front lighting for the first time on the entry-level ereader, the new 10th-generation Kindle 2019 snags one of the most common reasons buyers had for opting for the more expensive...

Sub-$100 price tag ; Front light makes a big difference ; Great battery life

microUSB rather than USB-C for charging ; No 3G option ; No waterproofing

Amazon Kindle (2019) Review: A Good Budget E-Reader with One Big Problem

Amazon calls the Kindle a "sanctuary experience," meaning that with the device, you can tune out all external distractions and focus on a book, just like the author intended. And if you're willing to get down and dirty in the Kindle's menus, you can do...

Solid lighting options ; Attractive screen ; Comfortable design

Distracting interface ; Tedious menus ; So-so text resolution

The Kindle can be a good product, if you're willing to tweak it, but reading under default conditions can be very distracting.

Amazon’s entry-level 2019 Kindle is let down by a sub-par display

Amazon's Kindle is of course the brand most think of when they consider buying an e-reader, but competition does exist and the truth is it makes the company's newest entry-level device look like a poor bargain. The price may be low, but this budget...

Amazon Kindle review

If you're looking to buy an ereader right now, it's almost certain you'll be looking to buy something from Amazon's Kindle range. With three products on offer, the Kindle family offers something for everyone, with top-end features restricted to...

Features a backlight Clear display Can listen to audiobooks

Not waterproof Still uses micro USB Limited storage for audiobooks

It’s by no means the best ereader money can buy, but introducing a backlight to the cheapest Kindle means it’s now much more difficult to justify buying a more expensive, top-end ereader. If you’re always reading, the Kindle Paperwhite or Oasis may be...
