![]() The left, top and right edges are all clear from buttons with the power button, LED light and USB-C port all sitting at the bottom edge of the device. This is only available in black, so you’ll have to buy a new case for your Kindle Paperwhite if you want a more vibrant look. The Amazon “smile” logo is emblazoned on the rear of the device, but otherwise it’s particularly limited in its design. The rear of the device is a plastic material that doesn’t feel particularly premium but after some use you’ll find it allows for a stronger grip than the metal rear of the Kindle Oasis. Its overall dimensions are 174.2 x 124.6 x 8.1 mm. That’s particularly helpful if you’re reading a hefty tome as it makes for a more comfortable reading experience. It’s easy to hold as it only weighs 205 grams, which is just a touch more than the average smartphone. The defining feature is its 6.8-inch display which means the device has a footprint similar to the average paperback book. The form factor and design of previous Kindles is relatively unchanged on this new model, but it’s a look that didn’t need changing. This is a new addition to this series of Kindles, and it costs far more at $189.99 / £179.99 / AU$289. That Signature Edition comes with some premium features, including 32GB of storage, an auto-adjusting front light and support for wireless charging. ![]() That’s the price for an 8GB model, which should be enough storage for hundreds of ebooks and some audiobooks too. ![]() This standard Paperwhite version is available directly from Amazon and a variety of other retailers. It was unveiled alongside two new editions: the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition and the Kindle Paperwhite for Kids. This edition of the Kindle Paperwhite was launched in September 2021, and it went on sale soon after.
