Amazon Kindle (2022) review: simple, delightful reading

The Kindle (2022) is the most basic e-reader that Amazon offers, but for some, that's simply enough.

Lightweight and compact size 6-inch e-ink screen with 300 ppi Dark mode and backlight display USB-C charging and great battery life Very affordable

No ambient light sensor Not waterproof

“Amazon's base-model Kindle gets some big upgrades this year, making it a worthy option to pick up for a mere $100.”

Amazon Kindle Review

Much sharper screen than previous Kindle ; Long battery life ; Supports plenty of file formats

Not waterproof ; Front light color temperature isn't adjustable

The latest Amazon Kindle has a screen as sharp as the Paperwhite, along with more storage and longer battery life than its predecessor.

Kindle 2022 E-Reader Review: The Cheaper Alternative to the Paperwhite

The latest entry-level Kindle has enough appealing new features to make you think twice before paying up for a Paperwhite.

Slightly lighter and smaller design than previous model ; 300 ppi high-resolution display ; Built-in light ; Good value ($40 less than Kindle Paperwhite) ; USB-C charging

Not waterproof ; Lacks more premium feel of Paperwhite

Amazon Kindle (2022) Review: The Best At The One Thing It Does - SlashGear

The Amazon Kindle (2022 release) is just about as on-point as it gets when it comes to reading digital books. Is this the last evolution of the ereader?

Long-lasting battery life ; USB-C port ; Great resolution at 300ppi ; Huge library of content

One-trick pony ; Too many other devices do the same trick

Amazon Kindle (2022) review: The e-reader for most

The Amazon Kindle (2022) gets an upgraded 300 ppi display and USB-C charging while staying below $100. While it'd be nice if it was waterproof, this is now the e-reader most people should choose.

Ultimately though, the Kindle 2022 is probably the best Kindle for most people, dethroning the Paperwhite when both are at full price. It’s lightweight and comfortable to hold, the display is bright and crisp — a massive improvement — and the battery...

Amazon Kindle (2022) review: Turning me into a believer

Amazon's new Kindle (2022) brings additional storage and a sharp display for a comfortable reading experience. But is it enough to sway a new Kindle user? I love a nice, physical book. But the Kindle (2022) has me finally considering e-readers.

Small and lightweight ; Dark mode ; Plenty of storage for books and audiobooks ; Very long battery life ; Sharp e-ink display

E-ink display can be jarring ; No auto brightness ; Cheap build ; No headphone jack or speakers ; No water resistance

The Kindle (2022) is a nice upgrade over its predecessor, and users looking for an affordable, compact e-reader should be pretty pleased with Amazon's latest offering.

Amazon Kindle (2022) review: Edging out the Paperwhite as a must-buy

The All-new Kindle is a perfect entry point for anyone that loves reading

Light and portable ; Very affordable ; 300ppi screen comparable to the Paperwhite

Not enough LEDs for even front lighting ; No self-adjusting lighting or warm lighting ; Still no audio jack, bluetooth is not a substitute

With a resounding YES, the All-new Kindle is easily worth a cool $100. The upgraded features make a great argument for ditching your 10th-gen base Kindle. Even if you're using an older Paperwhite, if you prefer all things small, the drop in screen size...

Amazon Kindle (2022)

The most basic Kindle model is the easiest to recommend for the majority of people. It's affordable and packs a fantastic screen for reading

Compact size sets it apart from the larger Paperwhite and Oasis ; Very sharp display makes reading a pleasure ; The switch to USB-C is welcome ; Access to Amazon Prime’s ebook and audiobook ecosystem

Slight price increase ; Misses out on a waterproof body ; Feels a bit cheap

The most basic Kindle model is the easiest to recommend for the majority of people. It’s affordable, packs a fantastic screen for reading and finally has USB-C for charging.

Amazon Kindle (2022) review

A cumulation of 15 years' ebook experience?

Decent price ; Compact design is good for travellers ; Excellent battery life ; Improved screen

Screen may be too small for some ; Not the most comfortable to hold ; Reliance on Amazon services may frustrate

The Amazon Kindle (2022) is a great basic ereader – with the emphasis on ‘basic’. This means it’s a great second device for people who want to read their Kindle library while travelling, but if you’re looking for a main ereader for use at home, then...
