One thing about Kindles is that they're very low-power devices, which is why they last so long on a single charge.

(Image credit: Derrek Lee / Android Central) I also love that highlighting a word can bring up several options, such as a dictionary, Wikipedia search, and an X-Ray feature that scans the book for other instances and notable clips of the word or term. I love that the Library is seemingly always a click away, the last book you were reading is pinned to the navigation bar, which I find handy when I want to jump back in where I left off. Fortunately, Kindle Unlimited can help fill up your library, letting you hoard plenty of titles to keep you occupied for a while. Buying and downloading new books and audiobooks is easy enough, and the new Kindle comes with 16GB of storage, which is double the storage you'll find on many other e-readers in this price range and more than enough storage than I know what to do with on an e-reader. Plus, I couldn't resist hearing Mariah Carey read her own memoir.Įlsewhere, navigation is pretty simple, with two sections: Home for purchasing new books and Library for reading them.

I can definitely see the appeal of audiobooks, especially for people who may often find themselves doing other things and unable to keep their full gaze on a book for long periods of time.
Amazon kindle review Bluetooth#
I don't really care for audiobooks, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to give it a try with Mariah Carey's "The Meaning of Mariah Carey." Pairing to my Bluetooth earbuds is fairly easy, and the connection is stable as a roam around my apartment. It takes a few minutes to show up on the e-reader but it works.Lasts up to six weeks, USB-C charging, 9W All you need to do is email your ePub files to the supplied Kindle email address. What you can also do is share ePub books with your Kindle and read it on your device. You can choose the reading speed to your liking. But it could be a good substitute for reading while you’re on0the-go and want to stay immersed in the book. I don’t blame the reader because it doesn’t know where to pause or stop due to the lack of punctuations. For poems that usually lack punctuations, it is not ideal. The option is called VoiceView Screen Reader in the Accessibility menu. The Kindle 2022 lets you connect a pair of earbuds or headphones via the accessibility settings if you’d like the book to be read to you. As of now, if you tap in the middle of the display, it takes you to the next page. I’d prefer it to show up like it does on the Kindle app on Android and iPhone – by tapping on any part of the screen. To go back to Home from the book, you need to tap at the top for the option to show up. And it automatically refreshes after approximately 25 pages, so you need not worry about that. I let it stay off because I didn’t want the refresh to happen after each page while I read short proses in Pillow Thoughts or A Gentle Reminder.
Amazon also lets you choose the screen refresh option. You can toggle the book cover display option to set the cover of the book you are currently reading as the screensaver.
It also allows you to view the books in the form of grid, list or collection. In Library, you can sort the books by a number of options like most recent, title, author and publish date in both ascending and descending order. I am yet to find a book that I would buy from the recommendations. I like to stay on the latter, since Home is filled with book recommendations that Amazon thinks you’d like to read. When you’ve setup the device, you get two options, Home and Library. The Kindle 2022 runs Amazon’s updated UI that was introduced in 2021.
