The warmth adjustments are good for this as well, casting a more sepia tone on the screen as it gets later. And the auto-adjusting lighting of the Signature Edition makes the experience even better, ratcheting the lighting down as the ambient light dims so that you're not staring into a searchlight. The backlighting ensures that the screen stays legible no matter if you're in a dark room or sitting in full sun. The Kindle Paperwhite's 300 ppi screen is the same as the Kindle Oasis and is crystal clear in any lighting condition. Kindle Oasis on the left, new Kindle Paperwhite on the right Anthony Karcz But how does it actually translate to an in-hand device? Amazon sent me a Signature Edition and cork cover to try it out. Like its predecessor, the all-new Kindle Paperwhite is also waterproof. You'll see a performance boost with a 20% faster processor as well. Not that you'll have to charge that often, since the bigger battery should last you around 10 weeks. It only takes around 2.5 hours to charge the Kindle Paperwhite completely. It adopts the USB-C connector of the base-model Kindle, giving you the ability to fast-charge your device to around 25% in 15 minutes. It has either 8 GB of storage for the base model or 32 GB for the Signature Edition. The Signature Edition adds an auto-adjusting front light and Qi wireless charging. It's the same size and form factor as the previous Kindle Paperwhite, shrinking the bezels around the edges of the tablet to accommodate the larger screen. The all-new Kindle Paperwhite has a (relatively) huge 6.8-inch screen (up from 6 inches), an absolutely gorgeous 300 ppi (pixels-per-inch) display, and an adjustable light with warmth setting (so that reading in the dark is easier on your eyes). Amazon has yet again made its Kindle range stronger in an ever-competitive e-reader market.Just in case you didn't read my original article, here's the rundown of the newest Kindle Paperwhite. There is a USB-C port for charging onboard the Kindle 2022 (no more microUSB) and storage starts at 16 GB rather than 8 GB. Amazon has shaved off some weight so the latest model is 5.56 oz (158 g) compared to the 6.1 oz (170 g) of the Kindle 10 and the display has been improved, with the latter’s 600 x 800 + 167 PPI panel being swapped out for a 1072 x 1448 + 300 PPI unit. Of course, there is also the Amazon Kindle 2022 (11th generation) for book lovers to consider, and it is certainly a worthwhile upgrade on the surface. In addition, the price premium is not even unreasonable: The 8 GB Kindle Paperwhite 5 is still priced at US$139.99 while the 16 GB model is only US$10 more expensive at US$149.99. There is now the possibility to select between 8 GB and 16 GB of storage, which will satisfy many potential customers who would have seen 8 GB as simply too miserly for their reading habits. While Amazon has been occupied with announcing its latest Kindle 2022 to the world, it has also pushed out a decent upgrade to the Kindle Paperwhite 5 that would have gone unnoticed to many. Those who wanted to cram even more thousands of books onto their device had to consider the Kindle Paperwhite 5 Signature Edition that comes with 32 GB storage and costs US$30-50 more, depending on whether it was ad-supported or not. However, one issue with the 11th-gen Kindle slate was its very meager storage allowance of 8 GB. The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 5 e-reader was released in October 2021 and like most Kindle e-readers it has received rave reviews for its display that offers easy reading and its sterling battery life.
