Great model for the money! A thin book, a light, powerful battery (lasts almost a month with daily use), absolutely no eye fatigue, although I read almost all day long. Sometimes it jumps several pages. Perhaps that's all of the shortcomings. Well, sometimes there is not enough clock somewhere in the corner of the screen. |
easy to use, lightweight on its own, fits easily into a purse and doesn't take up much space, so you can take it anywhere. No defects) check the book's localization right away. Other than that, there are no problems. Even without full localization, you can manage with minimal knowledge of English. |
Due to the dark gray background, it is difficult to read under artificial lighting; a regular book would be read much better. Convenient page switching, lightweight, easy to load books, bookmark. DARK, when reading indoors the gray background seems even darker. For some reason, no one writes about this; is it really comfortable to read like that? Overall, the book is great, but in half of the cases it's very unpleasant to read due to the lighting. I wouldn't recommend it to friends, it's better to look for something better. |

Model differences between Kindle 4 and Kindle 5:
Compared to the Kindle 4, the Kindle 5 has several hardware improvements in addition to the colour difference, such as the implementation of new fonts, improved clarity of displayed text, and increased page refresh speed (by 15%). Everything else remained unchanged.

The battery holds up very well; it lasted a month without charging for me.
You can upload photos in zip format.
There's enough memory.
The Wi-Fi here is quite convenient and pretty powerful; my phone only fails to find as many connections as a book (nice bonus plus).
When it's off, it displays previously found ads on the screen, so the screensavers change, but if you want to know more about the found ad-picture, there's also a link to the website; with Wi-Fi, everything is easily found.
