“I love my Kindle!”

written by SevinNyne on 28/07/2014

I've owned my kindle for approximately 5 months now and it make reading so much easier. I take my Kindle everywhere! I travel a lot so it keeps me entertained on long flights as well as allowing me to take over 1,000 books on my travels without having to pay hefty excess baggage charges!

I love to read but i felt like i was starting to read less and less with my work schedule. Since i got my kindle my reading levels have been topped back up and I'm flying through the books! The Amazon website that is accessible via the kindle to download books is very competitively priced in regards to purchasing an ebook over a hard back/softback and even many other ebook stores.

The built in wifi allows you to download your books whenever you're connected. It downloads updates and keeps everything running smoothly.

Pro's
- Small and light
- Fairly priced
- Great battery life, even in standby mode
- Solid, light weight metal that will survive a tumble and general wear and tare
- Download books directly from Amazon over the air to your Kindle device
- Customise the fonts on the device (Font, size and spacing)
- Quick page turn and screen refresh
- Cool covers to choose from to protect your device and keep it scratch free
- Built in word descriptions (click a word to find out what it means)
- Displays pictures within the books just like a hard copy

Con's
- Only a couple of colours to choose from
- Slow to navigate around the device (but still quicker than its competitors in the same spec)
- No screen light (you can however pay a little more for the device with the light)
- Only a handful of font's to choose from

I'd certainly recommend this kindle to anyone. I LOVE mine - it puts the fun back into reading and has generally got me reading again!
