    As a reader who lives in a small space with no room for shelves, my kindle paperwhite is a lifesaver. The front light also really helps when I want to read at night without having to turn a night light on.

    I got my first e reader earlier this year (used voyage) and it was a great introduction to ereaders! I would say the amount I read basically doubled, no jokes. But the device is almost ten years old and the battery is kaput basically. 6 hours is the max I can get out of it, I’m always checking the battery level while I’m reading, super distracting. so I ordered the paper white today actually! I’m hoping to get 10 years out of it ❤ Great video

    Oh I started reading again when I tried ereaders. I like that ereaders remember at which page you are with the book and I have them in my 1 hand - usually I read 3/4 book in the same time, so I don’t have to take all of them with me.

    I love my Kindle Paperwhite! I had the Fire and my eyes felt like they were being stabbed. Thankfully, I found someone who wanted it. I was skeptical of the Paperwhite at first. But it's been great. Nothing beats the convenience, especially on the go. And I love being able to read outside later in the evening!

    Spot on Micah. I agree with you 💯. My experience is very similar to yours with the Paperwhite. Thanks for the video.

    I love ereaders! I am waiting for my kindle paper white to arrive in the mail today! I used to own a basic kindle and reading on it was such an amazing experience!

    I remember thinking to myself that I wouldn't much a fan of ebook since I love the feel of paper and physically turning the pages. Look at me now - having most of my book collection as ebook. It's unbelievable how I've found new love for reading ebooks. The convenience of it is just incomparable.

    Absolutely agree with everything you said. 3 years back I was hard against ebooks, but now I cannot imagine my life without my paperback, I relay on it and love it soo much. I have the same one as yours and as I am growing up my priorities are changing, for which the convince that it provides has became a need.

    Hey Micah, thanks buddy. I found your video quite useful. I’m gonna get my kindle signature edition delivered today and your comments really made me feel its worth of an investment into this particular device. Cheers!

    I have my kindle paperwhite too! Love it especially when travelling and in need of an instant read. You can have them directly on your kindle wherever you are. Cheaper and free books too!

    Right with you on this. If a book is available as an ebook that’s how I read it.

    I got the Kindle basic model in during the Prime Day sale. I loved it, but I noticed the 167 ppi wasn't cutting it at night. I bought a used Paperwhite 2018 for a steal, soon after. My son recently gave me his 9th Gen Oasis and the battery does drain fast. I recieved the 2021 Paperwhite for my birthday a week ago. I love the battery life of it! I read about 95% percent on the Kindle now. I was reading on a tablet before. No tablet competes with Kindle's battery life. I read mostly for free using two libraries through the Libby app. We do have Kindle unlimited right now. In the past there is no way that I had time to visit the Library regularly or afford to buy as many books as I read now. I've read around 83 books since March. Not only can you get books faster on Kindle, but to me it seems reading is faster. One of my favorite things about Kindle besides the battery is the ability to read in the dark or in a power outtage.

    I Agree wholeheartedly Micah, an ereader will change your reading life in so many positive ways.

    I just bought myself a new paperwhite about a month ago, trading in my 2011 Kindle keyboard edition. What a difference! I love the size, how lightweight it is, the backlight, and the battery life(still running on the initial charge). I love that I can read in direct sunlight, unlike the iPad.

    Great video. I agree, I really like the fact that the kindle is only capable of showing the pages of a book. When I was using the app on my phone it was much more difficult focusing on actually finishing a book.

    I’ve been reading digital books on a variety of devices since 2002, years before the Kindle. I got the first Kindle in 2008 and have never looked back. My favorite was the 2nd edition Oasis, but, like you, the battery life became so poor I had to get a new device. I currently use the Paperwhite Signature. I’m very tempted to order the larger Kindle Scribe coming out next month. I’m not big on handwriting notes, so I’m holding off. There is rumor of a new Oasis which might have a larger screen than the Paperwhite.

    Another Kindle video! Wonderful! But as nice as this Signature Edition looks, I find myself more tempted by the new entry-level 'basic' Kindle - no idea why ...
