Amazon is refreshing its Kindle lineup with a brand-new Kindle Paperwhite, now available in India for Rs 16,999. The latest model brings meaningful upgrades in design, speed, and functionality, aiming to offer the best reading experience yet.

The new Kindle Paperwhite is the thinnest and fastest model to date, featuring the largest display ever in the lineup at 7 inches. It’s available in a Black colour variant and can be purchased from Amazon.in. In addition to its slim design, it offers upgraded performance with a dual-core processor that delivers 25% faster page turns, smoother navigation, and a more responsive user interface. Battery life is another standout feature, with Amazon claiming the device can last up to 12 weeks on a single charge via USB-C.

Smoother Reading and Better Performance

The performance isn’t just about speed. Amazon has also enhanced the on-screen keyboard, offering improved touch response, which makes typing and navigating around the Kindle feel more seamless and intuitive. With a more powerful setup under the hood, this Kindle delivers a fluid and immersive reading experience. 

Upgraded Display 

The main highlight of this new Kindle Paperwhite is the 7-inch glare-free display. This is the largest screen ever on a Paperwhite, and it’s now waterproof, making it perfect for poolside reading sessions. This also gives users an added assurance and protects your device from any accidental spills. The display uses an oxide thin-film transistor to render sharper text and more vivid images, improving the overall reading experience. 

With adjustable warm light and dark mode, the users have the ability to customise the screen based on their environment. It also packs 300 ppi for crisp visuals and 16GB of storage, allowing users to carry thousands of books wherever they go.

Additional Features 

This Kindle includes all the customer-favourite features like X-Ray, which provides detailed background information on characters, places, and terms. It also has a built-in dictionary for quick definitions and translations, and the Word Wise feature, which displays simple definitions above difficult words. The setup has also been simplified with a streamlined process on both iOS and Android, users can get started with fewer steps and dive into a book faster.
