Tech Specsĭisplay: 6.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.
If you’re using anything older, however, then you should definitely make the 2021 version your next one. Unless you really must have the warmer light, the last generation still stacks up favourably here. If you’re using a 2018 Paperwhite, same story. If you’ve got a Kindle Oasis, hang onto it. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2021) Verdictīut, as we mentioned right in the beginning, it’s awfully hard to improve on perfection. If anything could make that warmer screen better, it would be a warmer screen that reacts to lighting conditions. It also adds wireless charging into the mix, and chucks in the ambient light sensor that makes reading the Oasis such a pleasant experience. The Signature Edition scales up the 8GB of storage in the standard edition to 32GB. There’s another version of the Kindle Paperwhite (2021) that we sadly didn’t get to test. We’re… actually a little torn on the new layout, but it’ll probably grow on us. The basics are all handy, but there’s a direct link to all of them, if you’re trying to do something more complicated. And the OS also borrows from smartphones, in that settings can be swiped down from the top of the screen. This’ll track down anything in your library, provided you remember the title or author, without incessant swiping. Head to the Library tab and you’ll find a prominent search bar. It also offers suggestions based on the books in your library, because Amazon never misses a chance to try and sell you something. It’s a substantial change over the last one - the Home screen has been rearranged with a bottom tab that lets you switch between the default screen and your library. The 2021 Paperwhite launches with Amazon’s newest operating system. Expect more than a month, even if you’re voracious with your words.
We haven’t had this unit nearly that long and will definitely run the battery down faster, but it’ll still be a lengthy amount of uptime by the time a charge is needed. Amazon promises around ten weeks if you’re a moderate reader. USB-C charging is finally a thing, but you also won’t need to resort to the cable all that often. You won’t experience the silky smooth (sorry, Adam Sandler) screen updates you’re used to from a phone or tablet, but the display is definitely nippier. Internal upgrades mean that pages refresh, or turn, a little quicker than previously. The resulting amber shades mean a screen that’s a little easier on the eyes, especially at night. The large version’s screen uses a much colder light than the one found in the 2021 Paperwhite. In addition to more screen acreage, Amazon’s tweaked the lighting system. A larger screen usually isn’t enough to warrant an upgrade. The upshot is that there’s space for more words, no matter your chosen font size. The screen is still flush across the whole face, as was introduced in 2018. The 2021 version scales that up to 6.8in, while keeping the display’s pixel density at 300ppi. The standard Kindle display size is just 6in. It’s also put the very expensive Kindle Oasis on notice, thanks to its feature set.īut yes, the main new feature is a larger display. What the company has done was enough to make this one an essential buy if you’re using the first-gen (2012) Paperwhite or one of the stock readers without side-lights. Weird product placement aside, there really wasn’t much for Amazon to do to this Kindle. That’s why Vicks hasn’t changed anything but the label since your great grandparents were kiddies. And the thing about perfection is that it’s impossible to improve on. The 2018 edition, which brought waterproofing to the line, was basically the perfect eReader. So it’s a little bigger The 20 edition Paperwhite, side-by-side.Īmazon’s 2021 Paperwhite had its work cut out for it.
In fact, it’s gone a fair way towards cementing that opinion on the kind of concrete the Romans used to use. The release of the 2021 edition of the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite has done exactly nothing to change that opinion. We’re legally obligated to point out that Stuff‘s all-time favourite gadget (for the majority of the office) is the Kindle any time the eReader is mentioned anywhere.
