Key Features

Made to get lost in
The new Kindle Paperwhite

Your escape from the scroll
Reading is best enjoyed quietly, in any light, with nowhere to be. Kindle is made to keep it that way. No notifications, no glare in the sunshine, and months of battery instead of hours, so you can stay as long as you like.

Day, night, just right
Read comfortably from afternoon to after dark. The adjustable warm light lets you shift from crisp white to warm amber so it feels easy on your eyes whether you’re on the couch or in bed. And with a glare-free display that reads like paper, Kindle stays clear in direct sunlight and comfortable long after one more chapter turns into three.

Poolside. Bedside. Bathside. You decide.
Paper books and water have never been friends. Kindle is a different story. It’s IPX8 rated, so splashes, rain, and even an accidental drop in the tub won’t get in the way. Your read goes wherever you do, worry-free.

Millions of titles. One tap away.
Whatever you’re into, you’ll find it in the Kindle Store, from new releases and bestsellers to Kindle Exclusives you won’t find anywhere else. Want more? Add a Kindle Unlimited subscription and read as much as you like, anytime.

The Kindle app
Keep reading on other devices, right where you left off on your Kindle.

Accessibility
Read your way, with bigger text, bold fonts, and a built-in screen reader.
