What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Small, compact and comfortable to read. Display is not sharp as only 167ppi, but it's more than enough for reading. Has a backlight for night reading. Basic reader does the job, it is compact.
Easy scrolling and adjusting of settings. Better performance and battery.
It's perfectly fine viz a viz it's price and utility.
Cons
I think this new harry potter and the halfwit prince strategy to underlining & highlighting text is not an enriching feature for their educated users. I am unable to highlight text in lower 30% area of screen though i can change page by swiping th... Read More
It's unexpectedly bad. Don't know why. It's quite irritating. The problem for kindle is so fragile that if they broke, you can't take it to shop.
It is not so good for reading as amazon promoted. The pdf books not at all good quality for reading. Not able to view pdf.

Price
I bought this on sale for around 6k and i think at this price it makes for a great no-nonsense e-reader option.
Value for money and it's easy to transport.
Now i don't have to worry abt if a book's worth the price before buying it.
However, i do find the price point a tad high, especially given the absence of usb c charging, warm light, and audiobook support.
Shipping
My old kindle paperwhite i purchased long back when amazon had not entered indian market.
Packaging/appearance
All the other features that come packed with the rest of the models are a good to have.
Competitiveness
Of course one should not expect a very high touch functions from this device as compared to a ipad !
