All the features of the new Kindle Paperwhite Amazon. Reading books is a great way to spend free time, but how has this sector following the introduction of the e-book?
In 2007, Amazon introduced Kindle, an electronic book reader more commonly called e-book reader that, although it was not the first device of this type placed on the market, proved to be the best in its class leaving behind the competition.
Over the years Amazon has continued to release new models that have helped to expand the range, thus giving consumers a wide choice of devices that have access to millions of books and dive read without being constantly interrupted by annoying notifications.
The last arrived, Kindle Paperwhite , the Kindle’s 6 a generation proposed by the company, making part of the family of e-reader world’s best selling and affordable at an affordable price promotions Amazon keeping an eye on the portal www.sconti.com, has undergone several improvements over its predecessors. We analyze together what are the new features introduced by the new device.
Differences and specifications of Kindle Paperwhite
Kindle Paperwhite 2015, unlike the standard variant that mounts a display resolution of 167ppi, has on board a 6-inch panel with a resolution of 300 ppi, the same board of Kindle Voyage, however, the latter enjoys a system of automatic adjustment of brightness that allows to lower the illumination depending on the environmental conditions.
Among the main features introduced stands then the new font Bookerly , the “first font designed for reading digital”, featuring drawings with greater height and body shorter than the previous Caecilia, which renders much better than everyone else on the screen of the new Paperwhite.
In addition, improvements were made to the management of the layout engine, which allows now to get a block of text more homogeneous and compact, with automatic adaptation of the margins, thus making reading less tiring.
About the form factor, in addition to the greater thickness, Paperwhite is characterized by the presence of a “step” between the frame and the display, it features absent on Voyage, adopting a solution more smoothly formed by a single glass layer.
In terms of design we find a different placement for the power button, located on the back rear Voyage and placed next to the microUSB taken in Paperwhite, solution that we believe it makes it uncomfortable use.
As for the weight difference is more obvious, if Voyage weighed 11 grams lighter than the standard variant (180 vs. 191 grams), the posting of Kindle Paperwhite gets rather more pronounced with a weight of 205 grams that well, even though they are only about 30 grams more, for the reader so could make a difference in everyday use.
Finally, the autonomy of the Kindle Paperwhite, according to the company, came about six weeks on a single charge using the device half an hour a day with wireless off and light set to 10, in line with the other proposals of the same series.
