Ignore the negative reviews, this is a great product. It's my 2nd Kindle, and I'd still have the firs if I hadn't left it one on an airplane. It's my first with back lighting and I could not be happier. The Paperwhite is a bit smaller and does not have the page advance buttons I was used to, but after one reading session, it was simple, and now automatic. Touch screen works like a champ. The back lighting is excellent with a full, smooth range of brightness adjustability. The screen is very easy on my eyes. More fonts than you'll ever need in style and size. The battery IS excellent. It lasts much longer than my first Kindle and holds a charge for a very long time while idle. I typically read for about 1-hr per night and I don't remember the last time I charged it. It comes with Audilbe, which I don't use, but probably will at some point. I paid for the Add Free version, and it IS, Add Free. If you are looking for the best e-reader in price and performance, this is it.
I bought this kindle to replace an old keyboard one. I wanted one that I could read in bed without a light on and also needed to be able to adjust the type size. This meets my needs perfectly. I read about 45 min to an hour every day and the initial charge is still about 70% after a couple weeks. I purchased the bundle and like the fact that you simply have to close the cover to turn the kindle off. Very happy with my purchase.
I received this as a gift to replace a beat up PaperWhite I'd had for a few years. I LOVE IT! It is lighter, brighter, so easy to use. Do wish it has an * in the keyboard, had to reset my Amazon password to connect. But this is great. I don't know about the charger, I have only used my old one, which fit fine.
Love my new kindle paperwhite.
I have had my kindle white for about 4 years, it is reliable, easy to read and easily to hold in any position while reading in bed or your big rig. Being able to order and download as much material as you want and not have to worry about disk space is nice,

Description
This has quickly become one of my favorite things.
Things I love:
Backlighting- perfect for reading in darker spaces, such as in bed at night and while others in the room have the lights down to watch a movie.
Screen- is clear and not hard on the eyes at all. I can read for hours.
Waterproof- which makes this available for the beach or poolside.
Size- this is where I was unsure I would like the e-reader. However, I love it, it is compact without taking away from the reading experience, font sizes are adjustable and it feel seamless to switch from paper to this e-reader.
Battery- last for days with daily reading
I do not have any cons 2 months in
I ordered the Kindle bundle which comes with the 'leather' case and a power adapter. I already have this same 4th generation of the Kindle Paperwhite and I love it. This one is for my wife. The case doesn't feel like real leather. I feels like PU leather. Gone is the fancy metal clasp that has 'Kindle' on it. It has the Amazon logo embossed on the inside. It works fine and allows you to completely fold it onto its back which none of the aftermarket cases do but it doesn't look like a $40 case. The power adapter is a nice extra that you probably don't need if you have a micro USB adapter laying around the house. For us an extra adapter is handy. Overall a mixed bag. If I was to reorder it I would buy a case with more features separately. I'm giving the case 3 stars and the Kindle 5 stars.
I am very happy with my new kindle. This was a replacement for my 2nd generation kindle and I couldn't be happier. I bought the bundle and the case is very nice. This is much smaller than my 2nd generation but that's because it's a touchscreen and there's no need to make it large with a keyboard. I decided to get the wifi only one because once you download load the books you don't need to be connected. I also got the one with special offers know I can pay 20$ at anytime to turn them off. The honestly don't bother me at all and so far the seem to be based on previous purchases. I'm looking forward to potentially finding a new book or series from the special offers. The things I like most are the size, weight, backlight and water resistance (my 2nd generation was destroyed by a water damage, freak accident caused by a leaky roof). At this time I've had no issues and have no complaints.
This is my first kindle and I love it. It fits perfectly in my purse, is durable, and is truly glare proof. Perfect for reading on the go. Also the battery charge lasts forever!!
Yesterday I wrote about a kindle that died after 100 days.
Two hours later I got a call from Amazon tell me how
to fix this......Wow...Way to go Amazon.
