The announcement has been expected for weeks (or even months?): Amazon is set to release a new Kindle Paperwhite e-reader featuring a new 7-inch black and white electronic ink display.
Kindle Paperwhite
7" e-reader - 1680 x 1264 pixels e ink screen - Ebook formats supported: Kindle Format 8 (AZW3), Kindle (AZW), TXT, PDF, EPUB (converted), MOBI, PRC; HTML, DOC, DOCX, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP
Amazon has decided to refresh its range of Kindle e-readers, starting with the Kindle Paperwhite.
Although the announcement is not official—at least not yet—various e-commerce sites around the world have reported the release of a new 7-inch e-reader called the Kindle Paperwhite.
This new model replaces the previous 6.8-inch version.
The new Kindle Paperwhite mainly showcases improvements in its display, which now uses Carta 1300 technology. This allows for high-definition viewing, enhanced contrast, and a screen that refreshes more quickly.
The rest of the features remain unchanged, as the e-reader still has a touchscreen, lighting with blue light filtering, and 16 GB of storage for your ebooks.
As for price and availability, a price point around $199 has been mentioned, which would be quite reasonable. The e-reader is expected to be available soon, although as of this writing, no specific release date has been provided.
This article will, of course, be updated as more information about the new Kindle Paperwhite becomes available.
