We believe in the power and importance
of reading. We are passionate about books. Books convey knowledge,
spread ideas, and can transport you into alternate lives and
worlds. It's why we're working so hard to help people read more and
get more out of reading.
Today we're excited to announce
another milestone in our journey—the all-new Kindle
Paperwhite.
The new Paperwhite is our best ever, with a new higher
contrast display, the next generation of our built-in light, a
powerful new processor, and the latest touchscreen
technology.
We've also added new reading features
like Page Flip—skim books page-by-page, or skip through chapters
without losing your place. We've integrated Goodreads—the world's
largest community of book lovers—so you can connect with
like-minded readers, share recommendations and decide what to read
next, straight from your book. Our new Vocabulary Builder
automatically compiles words you look up in the dictionary into
easy-to-use flashcards. And for parents, Kindle FreeTime offers a
simple, engaging new way to encourage and reward kids'
reading.
Kindle is the best-selling e-reader in
the world for six years running. No one is investing on behalf of
readers or pushing the boundaries of hardware, software, and
content for readers like the Kindle team. We continue to invest not
only in new hardware like the new Kindle Paperwhite, but also in
new features and benefits that make Kindle a superior service:
Kindle MatchBook, Kindle Owners' Lending Library, over 400,000
books that are exclusive to the Kindle Store, Kindle Singles,
Kindle Worlds, and many more.
We hope you enjoy the new Kindle
Paperwhite. Happy reading,
