  • Good display, Snappy performance, Large library of books, Good battery life
  • No charger in the box, Expensive, No Audiobook capabilities, Browser feels gimmicky
  • At Rs. 11,000 for the Wi-Fi only version and Rs. 14,000 for the Wi-Fi+3G version, the Kindle Paperwhite is expensive. But if you are someone who reads a lot of books and doesn't care about tablet functionality, or is a part of the Amazon/Kindle ecosystem,...
