Product details

More than just a book. The Kindle Paperwhite stands out with its particularly slim, lightweight, and modern design. The 300-ppi display eliminates annoying glare, while the text you read has print quality. Thanks to the adjustable display light, you can read anywhere you want: indoors or outdoors, day or night - even in bright sunlight. The battery lasts for weeks, not just a few hours, and a quick charge with the included USB cable is also possible. With its IPX8 water protection, the eBook reader can be safely taken to places like the beach, the pool, or even into the bathtub - the protection ensures that the device can withstand accidental immersion in up to two meters of freshwater for up to 60 minutes. Experience a vast selection of exciting stories and exclusive titles with the Kindle Paperwhite that you won't find anywhere else. To enhance your reading pleasure, you can personalize the font size and style to maximize readability.

Hat eine sehr gute Akkulaufzeit. Funktioniert gut mit dem Amazon-Shop. Auch Audible-Hörbücher lassen sich über Bluetooth abspielen. Das in anderen Shops und Bibliotheken verbreitete EpubFormat unterstützt er nicht. Sehr robustes Gerät.

Wer ohnehin schon Amazon-Kunde ist und sich nicht mit der Auswahl von Buchshops befassen möchte, greift zum Kindle Paperwhite. Buchkauf, Synchronisation – alles läuft hier automatisch über die Amazon-Cloud. Auch die Ausstattung des Readers mit 6,8-Zoll-Display, 8 Gigabyte Speicher und wasserfestem Gehäuse stimmt.
