If you’re a book lover like me it probably won’t ever be able to completely replace books but it’s a brilliant little device to be able to carry about with hundreds (or even thousands) of books at your fingertips, it’s perfect for my needs and I wouldn’t be without one now and highly recommended them. Review: Very nice but expensive - I love my new kindle paperwhite. It’s lighter to hold than my ond one (7 yrs). . I decided it was time to get a new one as the old ones battery needed charging every couple of days , so here I am with my brand new 10th edition one and boy am I pleased with it . It came with a Charging cable , two tiny instruction books which I was unable to read, but no worries as , it’s all on the paperwhite anyway and easily read as you can enlarge the print . It does not come with a charger if you need one it’s a 9 volt one you need. Due to already having a registered paperwhite on desertcart I found my books downloaded automatically and in no time at all , in fact the book I was halfway through reading was there on the first page ready for me to open and start reading from where I left off once I had set up my newbie. I needed to adjust a few settings which was easy o do , Amongst other thing it has a setting that some people with low vision May find helpful, it makes the print vey bold. People who have older paperwhites will have no trouble setting this one up, I didn’t need to do any reading up . It comes partially charged up so you can switch on and set it up straight away . Apart from a tiny rim around the edge It has a flat screen which will make it easy to clean . I have no intention of reading in a bath (I shower) but you can safely with this one if you wish . On one review I read it mentioned that the power button at the bottom protruded too far so that you could accidentally switch it off whilst reading , I have not encountered this problem so maybe they have sorted it out . I like the fact that it is lighter than my old one , the screen seems more responsive too . Atm I have no idea how often I will need to charge it , I do an awful lot if reading so I doubt it will last weeks but I will be happy if I only need to charge it once a week. My paperwhite is so new I haven’t found any cons yet , if I do I will do an update ## Features - Now available in Black, Twilight Blue, Plum and Sage. - Waterproof (IPX8), so you’re free to read and relax at the beach, by the pool or in the bath.

If this is waterproof, then that is great too. *by S***H on 10 March 2020* OK Folks, The first Kindle I bought was great. It was fantastic. Perhaps the only reason it froze after about 2 years was because I had not yet written a review of it. What a fantastic idea! And I, at least, continue to rather prefer buying Kindle books and reading on a Kindle to reading all except older books. It surely must be more ecologically viable to not have to print hundreds of books. And convenient, to be able to have a portable library at your fingertips. The electric charge also keeps very well in Kindles. If this one is waterproof, then that is an improvement, but I would not want to throw it in the bath to try it to its limits. For anyone who suffers with sight problems the ability to change the Font is great. A formerly Dyslexic relative of mine told me that because he did not feel the pressure remembered from school of having a heavy book in front of him he just instead had to cope with a page at a time that he does so, and first did so and could hardly believe that after a while he had managed to complete his first book ever. Not only that, but I do have to say that before the Kindle came out the Book Industry as led by the Publishers was highly exlusive in a rather prejudicial manner: less that it was exclusive, but that its intention was often to exclude. I like Jeff Bezos from what I have seen of him (the Boss of Amazon). It is my theory he was never given enough credit for the magnificent invention of the Kindle. It may be that he went into overdrive as a result of this oversight. I admit that I have been in overdrive also to an extent, and am currently in some circles known as one of Amazon's "wildest customer". It may be that with the outbreak of Coronovirus people are going to be wanting to order more from Amazon and expect intrepid parcel deliverers to treck out to meet all their demands. I myself DID intend to try to stop using Amazon for anything other than Kindle books, and perhaps to listen to Albums before I order them from HMV. The problem is sometimes I have found that HMV has refused to acknowledge an Album of great worth and refuse to scout it into its stock. So, maybe I will use it for Music a little if necessary. I am hoping NOT to use it to watch films because the Carbon Footprint of Streaming both on Amazon and competing services like Netflix is said to be high....and if I am going to stream video I would prefer to keep it to YouTube. For now, I am hoping to be able to continue my Prime Membership to show for a while how grateful I do feel towards what Amazon has done for me. But Jeff Bezos has come out himself now as someone who is really concerned about Climate Change and the Environment....and it may indeed have been this initial concern which led him to invent the Kindle...as it was my concern also that led me to buy one in the first place. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/83476487-kindle-paperwhite-waterproof-6-high-resolution-display-8gb-with-ads](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/83476487-kindle-paperwhite-waterproof-6-high-resolution-display-8gb-with-ads) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-07-14*
