Pros & Cons
Pros
The kindle has a built-in front light that makes it easier to read in low light conditions. The size is perfect to bring everywhere, especially if you have adhd. Very pleased with readability, touch screen and light weight.
The battery life is excellent and the overall user experience is top-notch. Overall, i am extremely satisfied with my purchase.
Cons
This kindle reader is not up to any form of standard. Battery life is less than half of what i expected. My old kindle would last more than a month without a battery recharge. If i don't use the page refresh, characters eventually become fuzzy.
The screen resolution is rubbish and the touchscreen is laggy. It randomly turns the page when you don’t want it to. The touch screen isn't great at all and the resolution isn't sharp enough to make reading an enjoyable experience.
