[@MrSteelermaniac]

But he's wearing a black Hoodie! 😉👍 Great information!

[@davidkolesom]

he couldnt see it without mirror lol

[@cigarsensualista]

Ummm, he didn't mean the color itself. He was describing seeing a brightly colored border, which is distracting while reading.

[@SoftOtaku]

The Kindle Scribe is so worth it. Some books, like comics for example, don’t allow for larger text. The big screen changes everything. I actually upgraded from an Oasis (which I still love) to a Scribe because it makes it much easier to read Chinese and Japanese text that isn’t adjustable. I’m 47. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.

[@laurenclark5734]

I bought the Kindle Basic on Black Friday 2021 for $50. I got it in white. Six months later I bought the Kindle Signature edition. Personally, I like the smaller basic version overall because it is smaller. Sometimes I wish it had buttons I could push to turn the page because I’m having to constantly pick up my hand and turn the page but I guess you do that with a regular book anyway. I really enjoy it and it’s easy to stick in my purse.

[@xyza547]

[@spikedaniels1528]

One important advantage of the Kindle Scribe… ( and often missed in reviews) is the much larger escreen. Many older readers, as well as those with visual challenges, will benefit regardless of the note taking function.

[@jball100]

I wish they would make one w/o the writing ability. 10" reader would be great.

[@JimzAuto]

ipad pro 12.9. Hoping the 'notebook' functionality will appear on the kindle/iPad app.

[@Starcom70]

What about for people who have a vision loss and want to increase the size of the font wouldn’t a 10 inch screen fit more text?

[@timelady1673]

@@JimzAuto I love my iPad Pro (also 12.9”) for any reading hat is mostly during the day. Right before bed or when my eye strain is bad (my eyesight is horrid enough already) I still love my older Paper White. I can read with a rather low brightness, can read outside in the glaring sunlight and no trouble (cannot read almost anything on the iPad if I’m outside esp. in summer -___-) Also, it’s heavy. Granted, my weirs are weak as anything and I much rather would use (if my nephew hadn’t broken it) the older iPad Pro 10.5” I doubt I’ll be buying another kindle any time soon/. Between the iPad and Paper White///yeah.

[@passionatetechnology8306]

I got the kindle scribe to replace the Kindle DX I have had for about 10 years. What an upgrade. Fast, and larger at 10.2 inches over the 9.7 inches. Books with illustrations, newspapers, pdfs, and comics are awesome to read on this device. It flies faster than the crazy quick kindle paperwhite signature edition.

[@rbitpaw9163]

Not sure if this still works but when I got my kindle a few years ago I contacted Amazon support through chat and had them remove the ads from my device for free, so it's at least worth trying. Having to pay $20 to remove ads from a device I paid nearly $100 for is stupid lol

[@pamparkin81]

The best review I’ve seen. Very thorough and to the point. Exactly what I needed. Thank you.

[@JoeYatesAlaskanFilms]

The Signature edition is currently on sale 🎉 I just purchased mine. This will be my first Kindle. I’ve been binge watching your channel since I ordered it.

[@notlikethis9932]

You will love it! :) I purchased the Signature too and it replaces my old Kindle Oasis now.

[@mkazmi]

I bought the oasis in October last year. I love it. Love the size and buttons. I only read about 30 minutes a day so the battery life hasnt been an issue for me at all, especially due to using it on the lowest brightness setting.

[@ChiseledDiamond]

Have a 2015 kindle basic, still love the thing a lot, today i ordered a Paperwhite and handing down the 2015 to my mom so she can get her reading speed up after her brain hemorrhage hampered her reading and math.

[@Izzy123Monster]

I have a paper white signature and a library car from my local library and they have ebooks for kindle so it paid for itself. So happy with my kindle

[@DonnieReno]

I read every single day. But it’s usually at night when I go to bed and turn off the lights. That’s what puts me to sleep. Most nights I’ll only get to read a few pages but the occasional nights when I have a tough time getting to sleep, I’ll read quite a bit. I’ve owned Kindles since 2010. Right now I have the Oasis.

[@nysongbird]

I’m so torn between the Oasis and and the paperwhite signature. I really wish a new and improved Oasis would be released. I love the pro’s, but the con’s really make me hesitate.

[@alwaysreading]

I got the oasis despite knowing it has bad battery life. Thats the con i was most hesitant on but i really wanted the buttons. And It’s true. I hVe to charge every 2 days or every day when I’m reading a lot. But somehow the buttons make it okay lol. Game changer. But if a new oasis comes out ill probably get one.

[@Almoawdaa]

Your the best youtuber. You helped me make my choice. I'm thinking of getting thr 11th gen paperwhite because I'm a bookworm and will need to take it EVRRYWHERE. So the waterproof option will be very good.

[@alejandroolivas3476]

Got here looking for information about the kindle paperwhite signature edition. Very complete video, straight to the point and also I appreciated the info about the scribe edition. Great job!!!!

[@deadiemeyers1661]

Thanks for a timely and thorough overview of the Kindle versions.

[@janamour_13]

I've had the Kindle 11 Gen since 2021 and I'm really happy with it. Since December 2022 I also have the basic in blue. Since then I've been using the PW at home and the Basic on the go, since it's a lot more compact. I actually wanted an Oasis but it doesn't have a USB C yet. A nogo for me.

[@aniawyrostek8007]

Finally someone clearly explained the differences between those Kindles 😪 thank you! Now I know which one is the most suitable for me 🤩

[@Maneetpaul]

Thank you for watching!

[@FT-97.]

Exactly what I was looking for, straight to the point, short and helpful. Thank you !

[@PinAda92]

I am personally trading my Oasis for the Paperwhite 11. Much nicer to hold + USB C finally

Are you going to buy the signature edition ?

[@deohannah]

I prefer a smaller kindle. I can say that the size and features of the new basic is appealing since it has lesser glare and crispier text.

[@xavierrethore3778]

Just received it today and so far I love it: super compact and light, with a lovely denim color (to be fair I also have an Oasis for reading at home).

[@house_of_tranquilityand_lo6749]

I have owned numerous Kindles over the years. I have gone back to the Kindle basic because it is the ONLY one that doesn't have a flush front. I wish they would make the the Kindle paper white with a sunk screen I would go definitely purchase it

[@ella.1012]

Great video!! but I just recently bought the paperwhite 5, and I think I’m starting to regret not getting the new basic 🥲 I realized I don’t personally like the flushed screen, and the warm light (idk if it’s just my unit) has a pinkish tint so not liking that too. Might just sell this and buy the basic 😂

[@bxslilprincess]

i've been binge watching all your videos! and traded in my kindle basic 2018 for a paperwhite it was such a steal !

I bought my kindle paperwhite in May 2017 (generation 7 i think, the white one), and I will have a kindle in my life as long as I breath lol I read more often thanks to it. I still REALLY love physical books, but since I am afraid to damage them, I keep the paper version at home, and take the ebook version with me everywhere lol I just wish to see another white kindle paperwhite in the future ♥

[@smashburger65]

Thank you! Excellent reviews here! Now, off to buy a Basic :)

[@moisestatis5418]

Great video my friend. It helped me a lot to decide about upgrading my 6th generation paperwhite kindle. I’ll got for the paperwhite signature because of the auto light adjustment. It has a nice discount currently. Thanks for making this video.

[@williamlaine2116]

This fall, including right now, the Oasis 3 has been on sale for $165! I never saw any version of Oasis on sale until this fall, so I wonder if Amazon might be clearing their inventory for an Oasis 4.

[@JimzAuto]

imo the new 'scribe' is so close to the Oasis' original price they've gotta discount remaining units.

[@williamlaine2116]

@@JimzAuto Yes, the Scribe has replaced the Oasis as their luxury Kindle. That it hasn't page turn buttons suggests to me an effort to keep them exclusive to Oasis for the people who like that feature a lot. If so, Amazon would not retire the Oasis, but the Oasis badly needs an upgrade to a battery as good as that in the Paperwhite 2021 & a somewhat larger screen.

[@JimzAuto]

@@williamlaine2116 I think the Oasis size will stay the same as it’s ‘just perfect’ for a cargo pocket. Reducing button blackout area could make for a larger screen.

[@williamlaine2116]

@@JimzAuto I'd like to see an Oasis 4 with an 8" screen from lengthening the device & keeping the same width as previous models.

[@disneypatterson8667]

If reading is your priority Kindle basic is more than adequate and great value for money. Once you put it in a cover, it becomes a tank with maximum portability.

[@amraa23]

I've been watching your videos ever since I'm in the market to buy new ereader because my 2018 Paperwhite felt a little dated. I bought georgious white Kobo Libra 2 with red origami cover. But after reading a couple of titles on the Kobo I switched back to reading on my old kindle because it was simply light and portable and i wouldn't worry much if it's tossed around and breaking. At my home I read on my Kobo and on the go I grab my Kindle. Recently I decided to buy new Kindle basic just for it's size and weight but Kindle Paperwhite kids was on sale and just 5 dollars more from the basic version so I ordered it. I hope i did the right decision 😃

[@lovinglaurenx]

How is the kids version? Liking it?

[@amraa23]

@@lovinglaurenx I love it! I never tried kids software. Started it for the first time and turned into regular kindle right away. I really like the case. I think it's called robot dream? But I still think Kindle basic is most travel friendly version.

[@amraa23]

I love it! But I never tried kids software. Opened it and switched to regular version right away. Case I chose was robot dream and it's lovely colorful case. Other than waterproofness basic Kindle is still best kindle for travel imo.

[@leothefirst]

I have a Kindle PW5 (and have used the PW3, PW4 and Oasis before). If I had to buy a new one, I'd go for the Paprwhite again. The larger 6.8 inch display really is a treat, however the 7 inch of the Oasis doesn't feel like that much of an upgrade. This new Kidle basic is basically a slightly faster Paperwhite 3, which is nice!

[@AkiraMania]

Got to the point quickly and the way the video is structured is incredible. thank you

[@JohnnyWrongo-b9l]

I bought my first e reader a couple of days ago. I got the signature edition, partly because I do tend to buy a lot of text books and and other historical and academic work as well as all the novels I go through. Love this thing. I read a lot and and the adjustable light features are very useful and easy on the eyes. It came bundled with the wifi charger and fabric cover. I am very glad I could get this device. I may die with it in my hands.

[@MrCp209]

I just want to say thank you so much. My wife has been reading so much. She got the kindle unlimited and uses her phone and our IPad Pro but the phone is to small and the iPad is to big. I think this will be perfect for her. I think I might get the signature one.

[@smiilisa]

I think the on/off buttons are very sensitive on every Kindle. I hate cases but I put a passcode such that it cannot simply turn on all the time and change my settings and position in the book.

[@ThisIsMeEmna]

interesting point about kindle kids, didn't hear it elsewhere. also like how you detail each model . good video style. thanks so much! good job!

[@ToriDanielle]

I got the signature this year only because it was $50 off and the price of the 8gb one. If I had to get a different option I feel the 16gb one that came out this year is a nice sweet spot. I haven’t used the wireless charging but I do enjoy it with the screen brightness adjustment, no ads automatically and peace of mind with space

[@ToriDanielle]

@Tyler well for the price after getting $50 off key thing I said who cares what realistically someone could use! So you are telling me if you were at a store and the 32gb was on sale but not the 8gb making them the same price you would go for the 8gb? No! Good Day sir! Think before you write hun! I clearing said THE SAME PRICE!

[@erinmarie27]

Thank you for such an independent review!! I ordered the Paperwhite 😊

[@tng_abu3201]

I read all day, I have an oasis which I love but I dropped it at work the other day and immediately ordered the new paper white signature edition so my oasis doesn’t live the house anymore 😂😂😂 but I have to say the new paperwhite is pretty dope

[@lmaoroflcopter]

Bought my second oasis recently, wanting that warm light for nighttime reading and on flights. I still rock a kindle keyboard though. I keep the kindle keyboard next to my bed An oasis (2016 - no warm light and with the fancy battery case) downstairs And an oasis (2019) in my suitcase as I travel a lot for work. All 3 with 3G/LTE as they've been bought over time and its proven itself way too useful when out and about travelling. I did consider replacing the keyboard with a kindle paperwhite as its now really only used in the home but the keyboard still works despite me getting it back in 2011.

[@surrealchemist]

I upgraded to the Oasis a year before they updated the models so no need to upgrade, but I needed to figure out what the heck these differences are before I buy the one my mom has on her wishlist so thanks for the round up.

[@erikawhite2146]

thank you so much for this review. I have been looking everywhere and trying to figure out which Kindle and I believe I have figured it out since I watched your video.

32GB is also necessary for comics and mangas

Currently in the UK, buy a Kindle or Paperwhite with ads it will arrive before Xmas. Without ads, Kindle arrives 11 Jan and Paperwhite won't arrive until February! So beware, price is not the only difference, they make you wait longer to get the ad free version

[@wkm610]

Great review! I bought my first Kindle (the Paperwhite) in 2013 and it's still going strong. It's certainly outlived 3 MacBooks and 3 iPads... Obviously, this comparison isn't fair as the others offer so much more with the exception of portability (although I'm looking at an iPad mini to act as one ultra-portable content consumption device. Reviews of the Oasis I've seen on Amazon suggest that the battery is a bit unreliable in terms of charging and holding a charge - was this your experience? It also looks too big to slip into a jacket pocket. My current Kindle (in sleep case) will just slide in, but an Oasis wouldn't nor, I suspect, would an iPad mini (except for larger pockets).

[@loumartin8851]

I tend to buy the newest Kindle every two'ish years since buying the very first edition way back for $359 😳 I have the Paperwhite Signature edition, bought last year, and a new 2022 Denim Blue Kindle arriving on Wednesday. I'm surprised that I didn't buy the Scribe, lol. Probably because I don't even use the Samsung SPens that come with my tablets.

"there has never been a better time to buy a kindle than now" Nah... the best time was like 2009 with the kindle keyboard. 3G access, text-to-speech, buttons, and the keyboard which made using it easy, and also elevated the screen slightly for easier reading. That was the best kindle ever.

The signature edition is the definite "GO TO", but The Scribe however, is the "Emotional Pick" or "Wildcard" you you put it. Heretofore, I will keep my powder dry until after the reviews. Does the Oasis fit in the future in the line up?

[@katanabluebird]

I wonder about this! Is the Oasis being phased out? Is the Scribe an "Oasis 2.0"? I have zero interest in the Scribe for myself (I have a bougie Signature Edition that I adore) but I am so curious about the Scribe and who it is best suited for.

I think I will just keep buying new batteries for my Kindle 3 currently, unless I can pick up paperwhite on sale. I have had my kindle since like 2011 or 12. Though the light that came with the case cannot be replaced anymore. So I have found a workaround. I can adjust the page type in it, the page turning on the side (unlike the oasis). The power button is on the bottom, but it is a slide button. I do not get an add, but I do have a splash screen, but it goes away when I hit the power button. The only thing is it is not paper like.
