For any fan of Amazon’s Kindle, the e-reader is an undeniable game-changer. With 16GB of storage, the lightweight e-reader makes it possible to literally carry thousands of titles wherever you go. While some might find the shift from physical pages to digital ones a tough sell, Amazon’s new matcha-colored Kindle makes the transition to e-reader more tempting than ever for those new to e-readers — and an obvious upgrade to those who already know and love Kindle.
Amazon’s latest Kindle stands out as the lightest and most compact e-reader from the retailer yet, featuring a brighter front light, improved contrast ratio, and faster page turns — all wrapped up in a gorgeous, light green body. It is also available in classic black.
The new Amazon Kindle boasts a 6-inch glare-free display with a front light that’s 25% brighter, making reading comfortable even during late-night reading benders. “It’s literally the most beautiful kindle ever! The green color being on the front and the back is a dreaaamm. It’s also small enough to fit into my purse so it’s easy to transport! Completely worth it and very affordable. Very similar to the previous basic model but smaller and lighter. Page turning IS slightly faster,” wrote one happy shopper.
With up to six weeks of battery life on a single charge, the 2024 Kindle allows for reading marathons without the constant worry of recharging. One user commented, “This is a really nice Kindle. I find the screen to be crisp and clear, and not having warm light doesn’t matter to me so I appreciate that it’s less expensive. I absolutely love the way it looks and the matcha color. My favorite thing is that it’s small enough and lightweight so I can hold it in one hand while I read.”
Amazon’s new Kindle is also crafted with sustainability in mind, using 75% recycled plastics and 90% recycled magnesium, along with 100% recyclable packaging. If you’re on the prowl for a holiday gift for a ferocious reader, why not consider giving them the green gift of reading on the go with the new Amazon Kindle?
