Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

15.24 cm (6 ") , 212ppi, WiFi, 3G, 222g, Black <b>No Glare in Bright Sunlight</b>
Unlike reflective tablet and smartphone screens, the latest Kindle Paperwhite reads like paper – no annoying glare, even in bright sunlight.

<b>Won't Tire Your Eyes in the Dark</b>
Paperwhite guides light towards the surface of the display with its built-in front light – unlike back-lit tablets that shine in your eyes – so you can read comfortably without straining your eyes. Adjust your screen's brightness for great reading in any light.

<b>Charge Monthly, Not Daily</b>
Kindle Paperwhite won't leave you tethered to an outlet. A single charge can last for up to eight weeks (based on half an hour of reading per day with wireless off and the light setting at ten), unlike tablets that need to be charged each night.

<b>Read Comfortably with One Hand</b>
Thinner than a pencil and lighter than most tablets. Comfortably hold Kindle Paperwhite in one hand for long reading sessions.

<b>No Distractions</b>
Kindle Paperwhite is purposely designed as a dedicated e-reader. Indulge your love of reading without any interruptions, such as e-mail alerts.

<b>Whiter Screen, Darker Text</b>
IMPROVED – Enjoy even better contrast on the latest Kindle Paperwhite. Whites are whiter and blacks are blacker, creating sharp, clear text. The high-resolution display allows for elegant typeface options, including Baskerville and Palatino, and all fonts on Kindle Paperwhite have been hand-tuned at the pixel level for maximum readability and comfort.

<b>Fast, Easy Page Turns</b>
IMPROVED – The new Kindle Paperwhite's processor is 25% faster. Books open and pages turn faster for a seamless experience. Kindle Paperwhite also uses the latest in capacitive touch technology, responding more accurately to the slightest touches.

Your Kindle may use wireless connectivity to make other services available, such as wireless delivery of personal documents, which may require an additional charge.
