The ease of carrying my books in one device!

5 December 2019

Verified Purchase

Hi folks! I just received my Kindle from Amazon within 9 days of ordering it from Singapore online and the package was well packed and secured from tampering.

As I am a first time user I must say that I am truly impress as it is a really light weight device to hold and use. It does exactly what it is suppose to do which is to use it for reading. I use to use the Kindle app on my iPhone but I always got interrupted while reading as messages would pop up.

Honestly, I have been hesitating for a long time in getting a Kindle as I like paper backs but with the ever increasing number of books that I have accumulated, I was running out of shelf space at home and so I took the plunge to get a Kindle and I must say, it’s a whole new experience which I am beginning to enjoy. I highly recommend this Kindle Paperwhite 2019 10th Generation 8GB model!

Library at the palm of your hand - something that even Belle did not imagine in her lifetime :)

27 December 2019

I very much appreciate that finally, Kindle becomes available for shipping to Singapore. And to freely buy the Kindle books without having to go through the “workarounds” is to live for -- only the Kindle readers from here truly understand. :)

About the shipping, I ordered it online from Amazon.sg on 15 Dec and received it on 23 Dec which was 5 days earlier than the estimated delivery date. Since it was the Christmas season, I thought there would be some delays but Christmas came early that day. I am happy with the quick delivery and bought it at a promotional price as well.

With regard to setting it up and connecting to the WIFI, I noticed that it can only connect to a 2.4GHz wireless frequency. I am not sure if this is mentioned in the User’s Guide, but if not, I think this information should be taken note of as well. This is because I thought my reader was defective when I tried to connect it to the 5GHz frequency - if I remember it right, the error was incorrect password but actually was not. I also tried to tether my phone to Kindle but I hadn’t had a chance to make it work yet. So for now, I need to connect to my home’s WIFI to update the library.

Reading books from the Kindle app my iPhone vs Kindle are different experiences in itself. With the Kindle app, it feels like I am reading from a glossy page; I can see the colors of photos but there is also a glare that I have to bear with. With Kindle, pages look matte which is like the screen of the Magic Writer (kid’s toy where you can write on then erase with the magnetic glider) but I can read the text even under direct sunlight. So for me, there is some getting used to when I started reading from a Kindle.

Lastly, I bought the Kindle to make my commute worthwhile. Now, I can read anytime, anywhere without the weight :)

Happy reading!

Would be great to use - if Amazon would unlock my account

9 January 2020

The kindle is a lot lighter and more compact than I expected - in the best way. Easy to use, easy to carry, easy to set up. The usual feedback about it being slow between scrolls etc is true but not substantial enough to lose any points for the product - you’re going to be reading and flipping pages most of the time anyway, it’s not an iPad.

The major downside is when Amazon locks your account for unusual activity and then ignores you when you try to get it unlocked - making it impossible to purchase books for the kindle rendering it absolutely useless.

Ball’s in your court, Amazon.

Great reader if you don’t mind keep buying every book you would read.

Generally the device met my expectations. 3 stars because the speed of the device is rather quite slow and I Guess should be expected in a device at this price point. Would be great if the lag of scrolling, changing pages is reduced.

A software feature to allow borrowing books would be fantastic. Currently you are forced to buy books from amazon only. No borrowing. No free books.

I'm a Kindle PaperWhite fan

5 December 2019

Verified Purchase

My Kindle PaperWhite 1 (5th Gen) finally decided to retire. It’s been a good long 7 years of usage. It has served me well. Although I suspect that replacing its battery will bring it back to life, I decided to look for an upgrade.

Since my PaperWhite 1 has been so reliable and for so long, I wanted to continue to own a PaperWhite. As there was a Thanksgiving season promotion at very good rate, I bought the all new Kindle PaperWhite 4 (10th Gen). I can now continue to read my story books!! From PaperWhite 1 to PaperWhite 4, it’s quite an upgrade. Page turning/refresh is noticeably faster. It is also a little bit lighter. Let’s hope that it can serve me at least 7 years too.

Next, I shall start to look around for a case/cover for it

A classic among the ebook readers which follows the 'Apple paradigm'. You can do most things on the machine but it has a lot of exclusive content which makes it very difficult to change once you have a significant Kindle library. In appearance the new paperwhite did not change a lot and this is good. True value lies beyond the optics, it is quicker, reliable, has a good battery half life. As a newbie I would would put some consideration into the system I want to use in future. For someone who prefers to look into public elibraries a Kobo may be the better choice. Someone who has hundreds of books in the Kindle universe already may be tired of using semi legal conversion tools or buying them again...

Only if you really want a reader while travelling

As a reader it does its job. However, 1. Presence of any images on a page caused an annoying flicker to all black before back to page 2. You should really have expected a product that’s been around so Long to work just a tad faster, be more responsive and I am just talking about flipping a page. 3. Which numbnut decided to put the power/sleep button on the BOTTOM so when you prop it up to read, or when hold it with your pinkie along the bottom to stabilise it, the unit goes to SLEEP?!?!?!?!!!!

Slow delivery

Delivery was slow. Ordered on 3 Dec received only on 16 Dec. First time user of Kindle. Was eyeing it for a long time already. Waited till Black Friday sale and was still contemplating whether to buy it. It was a good price at S$144.xx. After trying the Kindle, I was a little disappointed. Touchscreen wasn't so responsive and it was slow to load.
