Pros & Cons
Pros
The touchscreen is easy to use and intuitive to manuever. I have mild arthritis and wrist issues as a result of damage from microfractures many years ago. The menus are all easy-to-navigate and very intuitive.
The case itself wipes clean and has a strong magnetic closure. It comes with a great case that has magnets to keep it closed and opened!

This is marketed as a kids kindle with parental controls. It affords the parent no control or oversight which i thought was the purpose.

It doesn’t have 10 week battery life if bluetooth headphones are connected (for audible audiobooks) or if wifi is on.
2) laggy: for a device that the only thing you can do is read, it’s not smooth at all, and coming from reading on my ipad, and ... Read More
Price
I highly recommend this bundle for the price!
)regardless, this deal was well worth it.
Unfortunately my son wasn’t interested and for the price, we couldn’t keep something he wasn’t going to use.
I do recommend waiting for a good sale.
