Review: Never going back 🙏🏽 - Absolutely stunning. Was thinking for a while on which one to buy, but as I've never had one before I thought I'd go with the cheapest to see how it goes. It's in black and white which is absolutely fine, I don't need colour to read the pages, it's tiny, smaller than expected but super light to hold and im glad it's so small! I've read 5 books now in less than a month and had the ad free version. You can see which books are kindle unlimited and even the kindle books are ALOT cheaper than buying an actual book. I was worried I had too many books and where to put them all! But I can read as many as I want without taking up the space. You can borrow only a certain amount of books at one time, but that's ok as why would I want more than 20 borrowed anyway? I can only read one at a time. You can buy alot of accessories for them too online, handles, popsockets, cases etc... I've chosen to decorate mine. It can be individual. There is no glare AT all when reading in the sunshine (even on the lowest brightness setting) and the battery lasts for ages! ( I automatically set mine in settings to lock after 5 minutes of no use) I can read on my side when in bed and when going away, you don't need to take 8 books with you, you can just take this kindle and have 8 books downloaded, ideal for frequent holidayers! I went for the 16gb as I wasn't sure how much space id use, and I'd say it's perfect for me. The colour is gorgeous and there's so much information you can see from each book. It also gives you suggestions on what books to read based on what you've read. I've now linked to Goodreads so I can find books Id like to read once I've finished. The best thing I've ever bought being a book reader, take it everywhere with me. I looked at YouTube videos to find which one would be best for me and there's lotss of tip and tricks that you can get from your kindle. 100% worth the purchase and I'm sad I hadn't bought one sooner. Never going back 🙏🏽 size comparison to a cola can 😬
Review: light weighted, easy to carry and read anytime anywhere - display size is reasonable and the brightness is just fine. the best thing is its weight. by holding it for long time and you won't feel it. it is also responsive and easy to use. touch screen is the only draw back, I personally prefer at least a few physical button to forward and back, etc. after all, the bezel is large and has place for button.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Favourite Kindle Yet! 😉📚
*by W***T on 23 November 2024*

I've loved using Kindles, ever since I bought the 4th Gen Kindle, over a decade ago. I recently bought another 4th Gen, a few months ago, to have as a backup. I've been using a 10th Gen, White, Basic for a few years and loved it, because it (unlike all of the black models, I've ever seen) didn't show fingerprints, which, tbh, annoy the heck out of me! However, recently, as it's always been in a case, so I can't understand why, it's developed a small "crack" in the frame, to the right of the screen, so I decided that maybe it was time to upgrade. Looking at the colours of the 11th Gen 2022 Models, I liked the "Denim," but was worried that, it too, would be plastered with fingerprints in no time. So, I was pleased when they brought out the Green/Matcha coloured model for 2024, (although I would've preferred a white option) in the hope that it wouldn't show fingerprints as much as the black option. I decided to wait for the Black Friday offers and was disappointed to find, that when they were listed on Thursday, at first, that only the black option was reduced on the Amazon Site (I later found that the Matcha also went down in price, later in the day) But the Matcha was on offer in a High Street Store, so I immediately ordered it and picked it up on the same day. I have to say, that the Set Up process was a breeze. I used the Kindle App on my phone and within minutes, it was all set up. I am particularly pleased, having spent hours, in the past, having organized my Library into "Collections," that all of my collections were transferred to the new device, which was something that I was worried about, but no issues. As to the device itself. It's a delight. I didn't think I'd like the "green" colour, but I absolutely love it. It's very compact and lightweight and a pleasure to hold "naked," and/or in a case. NO fingerprints. The front "bezels" on the device are made of some sort of matt "coarse," almost "roughly" textured plastic, which resists fingerprints and which makes it very secure to hold "naked." The screen is clearer and sharper than previous Kindles. The page turning process is very snappy and the screen, very responsive in all actions. One thing I am particularly pleased with, is that I have never been a fan of the "progress in book" option, which I couldn't disable/turn off (permanently) on my 10th Gen Kindle and whenever I did, I was constantly "reactivating it," accidentally, which I found very annoying. However, although the options are still available and I have it set to "page/percentage" I haven't once managed to "change," the status of the progress by accidentally touching the screen, at the bottom. In fact, I have tried to deliberately change the progress, to find that it takes several taps to do so, which is something I'm not at all unhappy about, so I'm happy to leave it on "page/percentage," rather than trying to turn it off completely. I have also purchased the OEM case for the device, which, although very pricey, fits beautifully, is comfortable to hold and doesn't feel "bulky" unlike the OEM case, I briefly tried on the 10th Gen Kindle. I did try a cheaper case, but, sadly, in spite of being advertised for the 11th Gen 2024 Model was too large for it and had to be returned. There don't seem to be that many options, thus far, for this particular model of KIndle. All in all, I would say that it's my favourite Kindle yet. If you're looking for a good basic e-reader for a reasonable (especially at the moment) price, then I would say, look no further. I can thoroughly recommend this device! 😉📚
