Light so you can read in the dark, Wi-Fi and 3G for downloading books, easy to use, touchscreen - so no buttons, big choice of books, great battery life

Locked-in to Kindle books

There is no doubting that as a reading experience the Kindle ebook readers are great. Whether you are looking at the Paperwhite or the standard Kindle you'll be happy.

Terrific looking display ; Amazon's ecosystem is outstanding ; Performance is snappy

Opting out of ads costs money ; No charger included ; 3G option is pricey

The Paperwhite is an excellent reader, probably the best I've used
