This is the latest generation 6" Kindle Paperwhite with WI-FI ONLY and with a Touch Screen and Built-in light, in BLACK as in the picture.
IT HAS ADS OR "SPECIAL OFFERS" ON THE DEVICE.
The ads are unobtrusive and don't "pop-up" while reading. They are only on the home menu and screensaver, ie when you are not reading.
I also have Kindles without 'Special Offers' in case you don't want the ads.
A common misperception: One does not need to be in a Wi-Fi hotspot to load books onto the kindle. Books are small and easy to download using your existing internet connection. You can then transfer books from your computer to the kindle using the included USB cable.
Unsurpassed Resolution
Paperwhite display offers 62% more pixels, and renders exceptionally sharp, clear text and images.
Stunning Contrast
Kindle Paperwhite's screen has 25% higher contrast. Crisp, dark text against a brilliant white background makes for the perfect read.
Innovative Built-in Light
Paperwhite guides light towards the display from above instead of projecting it out at your eyes like back-lit displays, thereby reducing screen fatigue. You can adjust your screen's brightness to create a perfect reading experience in all lighting conditions, from bright sunlight to bedtime reading.
Uncompromised Battery Life
A single charge lasts up to eight weeks, based on a half hour of reading per day with wireless off and the light setting at 10. Our breakthrough power management technology allows you to leave the light on at all times for the best possible contrast without sacrificing battery life.
Designed for Reading
Unlike a backlit tablet display, Kindle Paperwhite guides light towards the surface of the e-ink display from above so that the light never shines directly towards your eyes, allowing you to read comfortably without eye strain.
Perfectly Balanced Whiteness
We worked on Kindle Paperwhite for over two years to perfect the uniformity of the built-in light, flattening out a fiber optic cable into a sheet, and nanoimprinting to ensure perfectly even distribution of light. Our design uses nanoscale optical diffractive patterns to enable tight control over the direction of the light. Enjoy reading with exceptional lighting uniformity and evenly balanced whiteness across the entire display.
Adjustable Brightness
Your eyes adapt to the amount of light around you, so you'll prefer dimmer light when reading in a dark setting and brighter light when reading in well-lit surroundings. You can adjust the brightness of Kindle Paperwhite across a wide spectrum - from low light to full brightness - so you can read comfortably in any setting.
Holds Up to 1,100 Books
You'll never have to leave your favorite titles behind. With Kindle Paperwhite, you can keep your entire library at hand wherever you go.
X-Ray
