The Fastest Amazon Kindle Ever Made | Paperwhite Gen 12 Review

The new Kindle is 25% faster than the previous generation. This is due to the dual-core processor and Carta 1300 e-paper display panel. It has a new 7-inch screen to fit more text at once, making it easy to jump into a good story. A larger battery gives you 12 weeks of reading. This review gives you a comprehensive review of the entire Kindle Paperwhite 12th-generation experience.

I never considered page turns too slow. I also thought it was plenty bright enough. I’m sticking with what I have until it breaks!

[AlessandraSmeraldi]

I’m so glad I didn’t impulse buy it last year I just had a feeling a new one was coming soon

I wouldn't call the white light kind of blue-white, because it's honestly a lot more warm-yellow. I've tried two of them now, both were significantly warmer-yellow than the 11th gen that it's noticeable along with the size. It was to the point were the first one looked as if warm light was set to 10-15% without having warm light enabled. The second was more like having warm light at 70%. However, both were also plagued with uneven screens and dead pixel's as well that I prob won't try a third as its hard to judge the cost for a worse screen, despite it being very fast.

What puzzles me is why they have no Kindle with buttons. I mainly read while laying in bed and I use an Oasis with its cover on, as it helps the grip, although the two combined are rather heavy. If I were to lift my fingers to turn the page, it'd fall on my face. The larger bezel is perfect to handle, for the same reason. Ok, they abandoned the Oasis. How about a Paperwhite built like a Voyage? That was really amazing as well and I can see no reason why a Paperwhite can't come with a design like that.
They've been implementing and removing buttons for years, just for the hype. I'm pretty sure a new device with buttons will come out, and it will be the 'best Kindle ever'. 😂
The only problem with the Oasis was the price tag: personally, I could do with a lighter, less 'luxurious' version of it, without the 'premium feel', as long as it has buttons again. Probably, there will finally be another Kindle with buttons and it will cost an a and a leg, unreasonably. Thay make you crave for the basics and then sell it as luxury 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think people misunderstand and think of kindles like phones and expect large jumps in hardware/software and think they should be upgrading yearly/bi-yearly. Like if you have the last 2022 kindle, this probably isn’t for you. If you’re like me who’s running the 2019 basic kindle with 167ppi, no warm light etc etc - then these upgrades from that, are big and welcome. I’m looking to buy this soon because of that. If you had the last one, this isn’t for you. Some people expect too much. It’s an E reader, there’s only so much innovation you can do.

Previous Paperwhites had a rubberized-like back plate that eventually became sticky and very dust and scratch prone. Is the back on this new version the same as that or is it now a different material?

[jayvansickle]

Remember when the Evenness was such a big deal, that a whole section of a video was dedicated to that? Comparing to the previous version, and to other companies.

Now they’re all great.

I love that cold blue colour, it's a good design change. I love the warmth setting too, I haven't seen that before.

[byersbw]

Please keep the video’s coming! Great job guys!!!

[myaccount]

Can you please compare it to voyage and/or recessed screen kindle like basic or an old paperwhite, primarily how white the background is without frontlight

[andrewtang]

Thanks for the review.

I would dock points off this device for having the store show on the Home Screen and having a separate Library screen. Would have been more useful the other way around maybe.

I suspect the image on the box shows the device with 100% light hence the extra whiteness. Would be interesting to see if the basic Kindle has a much better contrast than even this current Paperwhite. Not really much you can improve on this anymore - Colour is probably what every eInk device should focus on now.

[jashuasandovalp]

Its exciting to see the improvement on the kindle devices, specially the fact that now we have color!

Love from India. Amazing review, cleared all the doubts.

[ineffabletwaddle]

So glad I discovered your channel! I've been considering getting a new e-reader and it's nice to see such detailed reviews and comparisons of different brands and models. :)

Been using kindles for more than 10 years. Love the paperwhite range.

[edsondronberger]

I borrowed a friend's Kindle and now I need my own!

BRING BACK THE OASIS!!! I can't possibly read this with one hand while laying flat on my bed.
