After i got a kindle i started reading 90% more than i used to. Before i bought it i tought it was a waste of money. Now its my most valuable possession.
Yes! Same here. Wasn’t sure if the purchase would be worth it and here I am using it daily and reading more than ever. Best purchase I have made for myself in a long time.
I have 3 kindles. I have 2 kindle oasis, and I bought the basic in matcha, too! I absolutely love using my kindles. The basic model is the perfect size for travel. It's very light, perfect screen size, and the color is stunning.. However, the oasis is absolutely my favorite. The buttons are incredible. The device just feels more luxurious in your hand, plus the oasis is waterproof and has warm light settings, which the basic kindle does not. All in all, any form of kindle that appeals to you is totally worth it, in my eyes. It's awesome to have an entire library in your pocket. Can't beat it!! I hope you enjoy it! Welcome to the Kindle club 😂
I got a kindle as a birthday present, and have read over 25 books in 3 months using kindle unlimited. WOW! Definitely recommend reading the Housemaid series by Freida mcFadden from kindle unlimited, and samples are the BEST for deciding if to get a book.
that's also my fav book!! I read the second Housemaid at the moment. I own Kindle in 2022 (got it for bday present) and I just used it this month for reading The Housemaid. I'm not a reader but The Housemaid makes me wanna read all of the series 🎉
My current kindle is also from 2015. Will be getting one for Christmas so cannot wait. I did choose the paper white though. Having a warm setting is important to me so I can read in bed without bothering my husband. My current kindle is much too bright for that lol
I got a basic too :D first e-ink screen for me, I was reading library books on my phone and this is already so much better. I will always love physical books but I am enjoying being able to easily read in the dark or on the go
About the ads - you can contact customer service and ask them to remove it, they’ll usually do it for free! Some would charge you but just keep trying and if you’re lucky you’ll end up with an agent who’d do it for free. I did it twice now, both for my basic and paperwhite, and got the ads removed for free.
@@arvinbangco9593 I used to do it on my fire tablets, you have to do the customer support. There is a was to message them and you just tell them you've got some inappropriate ads and they removed it from to of my tablets. But in my third tablet they said that Amazon took that ability away from them so they can't remove ads.
I loved watching this video ❤ so happy for you for your new kindle 🎉 I got my first kindle this summer when I returned from vacation and after I saw an elderly lady reading her kindle on the plane 😅😊 I got the kindle basic kids and after I saw the matcha I fell in love so I bought the matcha flip case for my kindle 😂 I somehow feel and share your joy and excitement 😄🥰 sending lots of love from Stuttgart! 🌸
I'm just the same, always loved having physical books but I have a disability which is making it really hard to hold large books, I read a lot of Fantasy \ Sci Fi and some of my books were between 600 - 1000 pages long, I actually sold a lot of my physical books just this week and decided to get a kindle, my Paperwhite should have been delivered next Saturday, however it just arrived today! (Tuesday), Happy Reading!
Super exciting! New here btw, and I just got myself my very first Kindle a few weeks ago, I got the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition (11th gen) but then, the new Kindles were announced/released, so I'll be upgrading to the Kindle Colorsoft soon. Subscriber earned 😊
Years ago I bought all kinds of Kindle books until one day I realized we are just leasing the license, and the books once purchased do not belong to us and they can be taken out of our libraries if there is a dispute with a publisher. So now I just buy throw away Kindle books that I will not return to after reading, and order hard copy books that I intend to keep in my bookshelf.
does the screen strain your eyes? i am planning whether to buy the matcha basic or the paperwhite in agave green but the i am leaning towards the basic more!
I would go for the Paperwhite. It has the adjustable warm screen. If you read in the dark or before bedtime its a must imo. I got the basic first but traded it in for a paperwhite and never looked back. Its worth the ekstra money.
so far i’ve been fine with reducing the brightness/switching to dark mode if i’m reading in the dark but i do imagine the warm screen would be nice! i just couldn’t find the agave one and i didn’t want to pay that much! you can always trade it in as well!
@@mayagbailey i forgot about dark mode. That is a good sustitute for warm light. I would keep it and enjoy it. Its a sweet little Kindle that you can throw in your bag and doesnt take much space. Also easier to hold with one hand so it does have its positives compared to paperwhite.
@@Fredrik7le i agree, i love the basic for the portability and the new colours for the new paperwhite is just really... not me. that is why i am considering the paperwhite in agave green instead of the new ppw. thank you for your justification tho
@@mayagbailey yes! i am planning to switch to dark mode during night time reading too. since this is my first kindle i think it will be a good start to buy the basic
does the lack of warm light on the kindle basic bother you? im choosing between the basic and the paperwhite but im not sure if having a warm light is such a big deal.
I'm buying a Kendall signature white and 2025 I research them for years one. They're gonna buy one, so I'm really excited Watching your video I want a contest in high school for reading 25 books and one month
I love the pic you shown on the first page of this clip. I care of the mode amber light and waterproof so i decide not to buy this version if not i will buy it as it is lightest.😊❤
You are going to love using it while in bed on lying on your side. Turning the page with just a tap is the best!! Enjoy it! What a great looking little Kindle.

i’m so glad i finally got one!!
@@mayagbailey enjoy it 🙂👍
Yes! Same here. Wasn’t sure if the purchase would be worth it and here I am using it daily and reading more than ever. Best purchase I have made for myself in a long time.
Same I’m on my second book since I got it on Christmas ❤️❤️
I watch unboxing videos to prevent myself from buying another ereader I don't need😭
one ereader is probably enough!
But you Need this one 😂

love her books! i read 7 of them last month
I had my previous kindle since 2015 I think, just bought the 2024 edition, no regrets!
My current kindle is also from 2015. Will be getting one for Christmas so cannot wait. I did choose the paper white though. Having a warm setting is important to me so I can read in bed without bothering my husband. My current kindle is much too bright for that lol
I recently bought a new case for my kindle basic, it's got a clear back, and a sleep/wake front. I absolutely LOVE it!
oooh i’ll have to put that on my christmas list i need that !!
Because of my wife's CONSTANT buying of physical books, I decided to switch to the Kindle to save space and have no regrets
first impressions: you’re so cool girl!
thank you 🥰🥰
Yay!!! Welcome to the kindle family 🥰 I just got a new ereader too!
I just bought the kindle paperwhite signature 11th gen like 5 months ago. I wish I had known they were coming out with newer ones
I got a basic too :D first e-ink screen for me, I was reading library books on my phone and this is already so much better. I will always love physical books but I am enjoying being able to easily read in the dark or on the go
yes!! the convenience of it is so nice!

how do u actually do it

You can set to not show what book you're reading on Goodreads. If you decide to use it, don't worry about that. 😊
oh interesting i’ll have to look into that now!!
It matches your eyes color 💚

congrats!! so excited for you you’re going to love it!!
so how do you find reading it in total darkness without the warmlight? does it bother you?
so far no! i just turn the brightness way down or put it on dark mode!
They do have apps for you to get free kindle books as well

welcome! the kindle colorsoft ones are so pretty!

you can always loan books from your public library so you don’t even have to buy them!
Does the green frame distract you from reading?
nope not at all!
does the screen strain your eyes? i am planning whether to buy the matcha basic or the paperwhite in agave green but the i am leaning towards the basic more!

So what’s the update? Loving it? I just got the same one as a first kindle :)
i am loving it!!! no regrets on my purchase!
Sooo??? Did you decorate ?? 🥰
yes!! photos are up on my insta @mayagbooks (:
I do not care about my Kindle having ads. I can see if ads were popping up while I was reading, then that would bother me.
yeah that would drive me crazy
does the lack of warm light on the kindle basic bother you? im choosing between the basic and the paperwhite but im not sure if having a warm light is such a big deal.
it doesn’t really bother me- i just do low brightness and dark mode if i’m reading in the dark!!
@@mayagbailey yay thank you! i'll be getting the kindle basic :)
I'm buying a Kendall signature white and 2025 I research them for years one. They're gonna buy one, so I'm really excited Watching your video I want a contest in high school for reading 25 books and one month
yay!! excited for you!
I love the pic you shown on the first page of this clip. I care of the mode amber light and waterproof so i decide not to buy this version if not i will buy it as it is lightest.😊❤
I have the 11th gen Paperwhite and im obsessed with it but i don't know why i wanna buy the matcha too😢😢😢😢
it’s so pretty! one kindle is enough though!
Could I ask what the clear back case is? Or does that come with the Kindle? Thanks so much
i purchased it separately! just added the link to the description of the one i got
@ Thanks so much for doing that, that’s so kind of you, appreciate it!
The matcha match with your eyes
If you don't have ads you can put the book cover that you are reading.
Bug Amazon if your free trial doesn’t start. That’s what I had to do
You are going to love using it while in bed on lying on your side. Turning the page with just a tap is the best!!
Enjoy it! What a great looking little Kindle.
i already love it so much!
