![]() ![]() But, now that you highlight that I will want to download all my books to my new KIndle, I realize that it will be one more thing for me to do. I was on the fence about upgrading my 2015 Kindle Paperwhite but will likely proceed. LadyGeek, thanks for starting as well as updating this post. Why? It's a backup to the online storage and I have plenty of room. I'm currently downloading all my books to the new Kindle. I briefly debated getting the Scribe, but I cannot believe they left off the page turn buttons. I also read on the Oasis and love it - in fact, the wifi antenna in my old oasis just died to death and I opted to buy a new one of the exact same model (the amazon chat people gave me 20% off after deciding my old oasis was dead). Worst "books" ever, in quotes because how can half of those things even be called books? Though I do sometimes take the 3 free month offers that pop up periodically just to see if it's gotten any better (it hasn't). I'm a huge kindle fan, and I agree, I don't like Kindle Unlimited either. But there is that old spare backup paperwhite maybe I need to upgrade that. These days I mostly only read at night, and almost only on Kindle. I have not even begun to exhaust the billions of titles that all the CA public libraries offer, even with the not-everything-Kindle format. While I am happy to download what I am currently into (and delete the library copies I'm done with), I also found Kindle Unlimited to be not worth the price. Also, I wanted to keep my books - not have them go away when the subscription expires. ![]() There were too many books that I wanted to read that weren't on the list. I tried it last year and it wasn't worth it. Kobo Elipsa Pack, $359.99 (Was $399.I forgot to mention that I went with the "Without Kindle Unlimited" option.Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, $129.99 (Was $189.99).Amazon regularly holds sales on Kindle books, so it’s cheap and easy to build up a digital library. ![]() If you purchase books on your computer, they’ll automatically be downloaded to the Kindle Paperwhite as long as the device is connected to the internet. You can transfer documents and PDFs to it manually, or download books from the Kindle eBook store. The Kindle Paperwhite can hold hundreds of books or a couple dozen audiobooks on its 16GB of internal storage. It also allows the Kindle to last several weeks on a single charge, which is especially helpful if you want to read through an entire international flight. The Kindle is inherently a uni-tasking device - there are no apps, no web browser, no notifications - which makes it easier to concentrate on reading. Reading on an e-ink display is also easier on your eyes. The Paperwhite has a 6.8-inch high-resolution e-ink display, which won’t show glare from the sun like the LCD screen on a smartphone or tablet. The $50 discount on Amazon’s latest e-reader brings it down to its lowest price ever, and we fully expect it to sell out over the next couple of days. If you’re reading this, it means you’re interested in high-quality digital text, so you should probably pick up the Kindle Paperwhite while it’s on sale for Black Friday.
