  • Waterproof
  • Bluetooth for audiobooks
  • Same great e-reader
  • Screen is now flush to bezels
  • 10 percent slimmer
  • Lighter and more durable with full waterproofing. Text is slightly sharper and better lit. Base storage is bumped from 4GB to 8GB. Bluetooth audio is on board for audiobooks. Minor updates enhance Amazon's already best-in-class reader

  • Audible support, Waterproofing, Improved design, Better-contrast display
  • Pricey when fully loaded (LTE and 32GB storage and no “special offers”), No MP3 or text-to-speech support
  • Amazon's Kindle Paperwhite has long been the go-to e-reader, and for good reason. It provides an enjoyable reading experience with enough premium features to keep most literary lovers happy. Now, with the addition of Bluetooth/Audible and waterproofing, i...

  • Amazon-centric software, Still not great for comics, Still using micro-USB, not USB-C
  • Is it worth the cash? Yes, it certainly is. The Kindle Paperwhite 2018 isn't the most extravagant e-reader Amazon has to offer, and it's not the most basic. Instead, the Kindle Paperwhite 2018 is the perfect balance of cost vs value. If I were to pick one...

  • 2016's entry-level Kindle may not feel fancy, but it's the best note-taker among e-readers (for the moment) and delivers plenty of value for its price. Read More…...
