    Kindle E-reader, 8th generation

        Free Touchscreen Display

        Price: $79. 99

        ● Thin and light for one-handed reading

        New Kindle is 11% thinner and 16% lighter than the previous generation Kindle, making it easy and comfortable to hold in one hand.

        ● Read like real Paper

        Kindle creates text similar to what you see in a physical book. The blacks and whites on the screen are uniform, improving text and image quality.

        ●Long-life battery

        Kindle doesn't need power to show a page of text, allowing you to read for weeks on a single charge.

        ● Thousands of books, no distraction (分心)

        Kindle is designed to be an e-reader. It satisfies your love of reading without interruptions like e-mails and phone calls.

        ●Look it up without leaving your page

        Smart Lookup combines entries from The New Oxford American Dictionary with information from Wikipedia, so you can know meanings, characters and more without losing your place.

        ●Adjust your text size

        Choose from eight text sizes to prevent tired eyes, so you can keep reading longer.

        The price is great with an extra $ 20 off and this new Kindle is smaller in my hands than my old one. I was sad to lose my old Kindle, but this one is terrific.

        ※ Jason, January 26, 2019

        I miss the original Kindlers size—this one is too small. Also, the screen is overly sensitive and things pop up (弹出) and the battery doesn't last as long as the original Kindle. But my biggest disappointment is that this Kindle doesn't allow you to transfer everything from the original Kindle、so I lost all of the information from my old one. Overall, disappointing.

        ※ Susan, November 17, 2018

        I had the original Kindle, and the battery lasted for weeks. This battery only seems to last a few days, however. The other problem I have with this version of the Kindle is the touch screen. It is annoying when you are reading and start turning the wrong way. Sometimes, it's hard to get the page to turn the way you'd like it to.
