The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is on sale in the United States and it has received a $20 discount. The regular price is $264.00, which can be yours today for $244.99; it also comes with a free case, and this version is without the ads. This version is better than the regular Paperwhite; it has 32GB of storage, an auto-adjusting lighting system and wireless charging.
The 11th Generation Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature edition is breaking new ground regarding a modern e-reader. It checks all the right boxes for a premium-level device. It has a larger 6.8-inch screen, 32GB of storage, USB-C, and the same white and amber LED lights that the Kindle Oasis employed. You can adjust the lights with a slider bar, but they can be automatically adjusted based on your environment with the ambient light sensor. This is the first Kindle with QI wireless charging, and Amazon is selling a new docking station.
The Signature Edition meets all customers’ needs for a Kindle. People have been begging for years for the company to adopt USB-C, and they did. A better lighting system was also high on the wish list, which is available. Likely, the biggest thing that people wanted, no pun intended, was a larger screen to provide more text on the screen, and Amazon listened. Therefore, I think this is simply the best Kindle ever made.
I think the Paperwhite and Paperwhite Signature Edition are due for an upgrade soon. These e-readers came out in 2021 and are getting long in the tooth. There is a rumour that Amazon plans to release Color Kindles next year, which are forgoing Kaleido 3 and instead will use Gallery 3 or Spectra 6.
