Kindle 8, ie, starter package for a bookworm – Onet.pl

For a start, a little meat, that is the price. 79,99 euros version without ads (69,90 euros is), that in today’s wind means less than 350 rubles (is 300 RUB). For this money we get a cult reader, which offers virtually everything that four times more expensive Kindle Oasis. Get the system that support the same file formats (MOBI, PRC, AZW, AZW3 (KF8), TXT, PDF) and by the transfer books in Amazon account directly from the virtual bookstore. Where in this case this price?

Kindle 8 a little slower and a little worse made than its more expensive brothers. In practice, however, does not hesitates to answer and comfort when you open the workbook or distance of the subsequent pages match the one I know with other readers Amazonu. For the quality of the plastics used and the fold is actually not allowed to forget that we are dealing with the device in version absolutely of primary (and even the interiors of its ancient polonaises did better impression). The only advantage of this procedure is surprisingly small weight of the device is 160 grams. And this makes it an ideal candidate for a constant companion – there is absolutely no reason not to take it with you even on dziesięciominutowy walk to the store.

the greatest saving was made, however, somewhere in other place. Unfortunately, where it hurt the most. We are talking about a screen that offers 167 ppi 300 ppi relative to what we find in other models of the Kindle family. We also lacked backlighting, which allows you to comfortably read in low-light conditions, and during the day it slightly increases the contrast (the background seems to be brighter and closer to him in a white sheet of paper). Low resolution for survival, but there is no backlight, tortured every day, when the sun begins to hide behind the horizon.

devices for Reading electronic books, this is a very cool device, but not all fans of the books will be they believe. I know the history books obawiających to abandon the classic paper that instantly fell in love with each new image of the consumption of the subsequent pages, but there are cases in which the readers, despite a great desire to change in a few days was wyklinane from the forces of hell. Kindle 8, appears to be a safe option for all people who want to try to ebookach, but there are some fears associated with a strong attachment to paper books. Immediately for a reasonable price we get a decent reader, which will help to dispel all doubts. You can find fault with it really only the absence of light, without which it is difficult to live like it once you try. However, if you are just starting your adventure with ebookami, it is necessary to start with “ósemeczką”.

8 Review of Kindle – the cheapest Kindle has never been so good. It lacks only one thing – Antyweb

8. generation Kindle is not a revolutionary product. Truth be told differences compared to the previous version are very subtle. For this reason, I want to first of all in his article concentrate on what’s found in the tested reader. The official premiere took place in June 2016 year. It is a completely different category than the Voyage of equipment or Oasis – located on the exact opposite end of the offer. Price in the German Amazon is 79.99 euros, per gives about 350 zlotys. We do not pay at the same time for the shipment. Is this the best ebook reader for the money?

Appearance and performance

The design of the Kindle reader, not counting the model Oasis, for a long time does not pass major transformations. Kindle 8 in this respect is not surprising. The reader is a slimmer, thinner and lighter than its predecessor. For the test model got dark (dark gray actually), but the offer is also a white version. The dimensions of 160 mm x 115 mm x 9.1 mm are primarily driven by a very thin frame around the screen. In contrast, weight 161 g gives him the title of the second lightest Kindle in history (after the model of Oasis). The eye-catcher is here primarily a fairly significant rounding of the edges and plecków housing.

In all other respects it is rather classic. At the bottom edge you will find MicroUSB connector and the only physical button to and sleep, wake and Reset (after a long hold) Kindle. Below the screen is adorned with the brand logo Kindle, and placed on the back of a large postage Amazon.

Display

8 used in the Kindle display is the E Ink Pearl panel with a diagonal of 6 inches. It works at a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, which gives a density of 167 PPI. Unfortunately, this can be felt in everyday use – especially in a situation where we had previously dealt with screens with higher resolution. Of course there is nothing you could not be used. He himself once used the older version of the reader with a screen resolution exactly and they burned my eyes. The fact that the fonts are somewhat blurred and less severe as compared to Oasis several times more expensive model. But does anyone surprised?

The screen has no backlight, what exactly is its greatest drawback. Of course, hardly require a reader for 350 zlotys were solutions of much more expensive models. I must admit, however, that very soon got used to this mechanism, and I find it hard to imagine it without reading. At the same time I do not have here only thinking of the evening session with a book. Backlight is useful very often – even in situations when the screen falls annoying shadow.

Windows 10 Anniversary Update Kindle + = problem – the benchmark.pl

A A

In the context of Windows 10 already talked about several issues. The manufacturer is trying to eliminate them on a regular basis, but at the same time all the time there are new. Not without them, as in the case of the last major update – Anniversary Update.

In recent days, there were some voices talking about a rather unusual situation. It turns out, because it has been confirmed that computers with Windows 10 Anniversary Update does not want to cooperate with readers Amazon Kindle, specifically Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Voyage.

At the time of connecting the reader to a PC or laptop (via USB ), the system stops responding and displays how unpopular Blue Screen of Death (BSOD).

Interestingly, if the reader is connected by turning on your computer or laptop, everything works as it should. It was also noted that the described situation applies to port mainly USB 2.0 when using the higher standard of behavior occurs much less frequently.

Microsoft is not cut off by the subject, but at the moment solutions are not found.

Amazon supports readership, giving Kindle Onet.pl

the report shows that in many countries the level of readership in recent years has decreased significantly, and many people have not read a single book. Without going into the reasons for this state of Affairs, Amazon plans to take measures that should improve the situation.

the American group has just announced a new initiative called Kindle Reading Fund, which supports the readership. The project company will support the reading programs conducted in the developing countries, giving free Kindle readers and Kindle Fire tablets. The devices will be available also for schools, libraries, hospitals, and nonprofit organizations from around the world.

to ensure that the device will fall into the right hands, Amazon has joined forces with a nonprofit organization called Worldreader, which provides e-books to children and families living in developing countries.

8 Kindle – the best basic e-book reader – benchmark.pl

Kindle 8 is a basic e-book reader offered by Amazon. It is clearly cheaper than the Paperwhite, Voyage and primarily Oasis. Understandably, much of them are also different. First of all, we do not find here doświetlanego screen, so you can read even late in the evening or at night without turning on additional light source. To lower the price of the device used here also display a lower resolution.

Does this mean that the latest Kindle edition 8 should not have a reason to exist? On the contrary. This is an excellent example of how we should look modern, easy to use and seamlessly operating reader, which in addition is available at a very affordable price.

Appearance and ergonomics

I had the opportunity to test a lot of readers, including the latest model of Kindle Oasis (in which I fell in love, but for me it is too expensive ), as well as probably currently the most popular reader Paperwhite 3 (my primary reader). In terms of design the new Kindle 8 ranks right between them. It looks much like Paperwhite, but in terms of lightness much closer to his Oasis.

8 Kindle is surprisingly light. Weighing just 161 grams, which is over 40 grams less than the Paperwhite. The difference on paper might not seem so significant, but I assure you that it is very clearly felt in the course of reading. “The eight” is much more comfortable to hold in one hand than the Paperwhite. Weighing only 130 grams Oasis can compete in this respect with the new kundalini.

The second thing is much narrower frame around the screen. At first glance, it seems by the fact that the display itself is smaller, but it is only an illusion. As with all Amazon readers, here we have a screen size of 6 inches. Smaller frames make, however, that the reader is more convenient, take up less space and easier to hold in your hand.

the housing reader is made of matte plastic. However, while the Paperwhite rear part of the casing is made of plastic with a rubberized texture, so Kindle 8 of the missing. By this reader is a little more slippery, and for that you need to get used to – I think that this is our first e-book reader, it will not be this problem.

Those seeking a large number of connectors will probably be disappointed, but in truth, no additional ports in addition to the micro USB are not needed here. This terminal will serve to charge the reader and connect it to your computer (in this way you can eg. Upload larger files, such as a book with a lot of illustrations or photos).

Display

Ok, the new Kindle is lighter and more portable than its older and more expensive brother, so why is it so much cheaper? The difference lies mainly in the display. We are here because E Ink Pearl display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, which gives a ratio of ppi of 167. This is almost two times less than the Paperwhite models and Oasis.

If you change to either of these readers , the difference will be visible to the naked eye. Fonts are less clear (this is especially evident in the case of the font Palatino, which on 8 Kindle just looks bad). Choosing popular Bookerly is much better. Unfortunately, photos do not reflect this fully.

There is also more light here. When reading during the day is not noticeable, because text is perfectly readable (no different from ordinary paper). However, if you want to read in low light (in the evening, at night, or even on the tram), it can not do without an external source of light.

Work

When it comes to working time, it does not fault anything. When fully charged, the battery energy is enough to us for a few weeks. I use it both in the course of a week’s holiday and the usual working days, when I had time to read in the tram or just before bedtime. During the two weeks testing the battery level dropped to half, so I can safely say that it is good.

The service and menu

Menu reader is identical to the more expensive models. By launching the Kindle first go through a quick tutorial, where you can get tips on how to use the reader. We will learn how to change the page, how to run menu and connect the device to the network and register your account Amazon.

Sam main screen to view recently read books and orders from Amazon. The latter can be turned off in the settings. Our books are located in the My Library. Here one important thing. We are here because two views. By selecting “All” will display all the books we have placed in the Amazon cloud, while “Downloaded” is a book downloaded to the reader or uploaded directly from your computer. Books can be displayed as a list or as thumbnails of cover art (if available).

at the top of the screen is the menu bar, where we find a shortcut to the home screen, turn on flight mode, synchronize the reader from Amazon account (useful if you read on multiple devices), and go to store.

More advanced settings are in a separate menu. We set there, among others, WiFi connection, device name, connect to Facebook and Twitter to share your favorite quotes, you can also set parental controls or restore the reader to factory settings.

Read

well, and how latest Kindle works in practice? Very good. If you want to start your adventure with e-book reader, the “Eight” is probably one of the best choices at this point. The reader works fast, I got the impression that even faster than the Paperwhite and Oasis. This is due to the fact that here we have the screen with a lower resolution, which is much less stress for the components.

Of course, during the change of sides, this difference is not so important, but it can be seen, eg. When browsing the menu . The difference is, however, visible in display quality. Unfortunately, E Ink Pearl in this respect quite significantly inferior nowszemu E Ink Carta, so the first time during the change from the Paperwhite for me was quite painful. Fonts are less clear and sharp. Fortunately, after a long time somehow forget about it and just dove in reading.

we can not however forget about the lack of additional lighting, so reading in the evening we have to support the lamp. If, however, and so lighting is not for us a key element of the reader, the Kindle meet expectations.

It is light, handy, and its price (especially by ordering directly from Amazon store) is very advantageous. 8 Kindle, it’s just a very good device. Perfect for that, to see if the e-book reader, it’s something for me. I recommend it!

The final evaluation:

• a much slimmer and lighter body

 

• full screen readable even in strong sunlight

 

• convenient Touch Control

 

• smooth operation interface

 

• The battery can withstand several weeks
  
   

 
• low screen resolution

 

• still no Polish language

 

• slippery body

Kindle Oasis – Reviews – MobileWorld24.pl (Blog)

Amazon with its line of Kindle readers can tell revolutionized the approach to e-reading. Devices is globally a number of different price levels. Now I have the opportunity to test top of Amazon’s device, specifically Kindle Oasis. What stands out from the competition? What gives opportunities? You will see by reading the following review.

The contents of the box and specifications

The box like a box. Absolutely minimalist, containing the most essential markings and information. When it comes to the turn of the contents of the package as it did in the case of my Kindle Paperwhite third generation so here we get only the micro USB cable to charge the (lack here plugs into an electrical outlet), and we have case about which I will write more in one of the following paragraphs.

When it comes oz turn of the same specification we get just as in pre-processor and clocked at 1.0 GHz and 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB built-in memory.

Quality workmanship and design

what is the first to throw in the eye for the fastest reader, Amazon is the size. These are considerably reduced compared to even Kindle Paperwhite third generation – is smaller, lighter is achieved with two treatments. First, reduced size of the battery in the device (battery part redeployed to the case), the second frame are also noticeably smaller around the display. The reader has a more rectangular than square. Kindle Oasis also is not totally flat plecków. It has a handle like “bulge” that makes it convenient to hold the device in one hand. At this scale has no problems to eg. The hand numb and hurt). Before I first saw the device on the renders I was not convinced by this solution. But when I got the test sample and I had the opportunity a little longer to read using the Kindle Oasis such a solution to my liking. Anticipating the questions, the whole has been prepared so that both right and left-handers will freely be able to use this solution, because the screen automatically changes orientation (we do not have here the horizontal and vertical orientation, but the screen rotates 180 degrees). The entire reader is made of plastic. It is good quality, but in my opinion a little too slippery, but the situation saves finish earlier said bulge, which is covered with a thin layer of rubber, so there are no problems and the reader has no right to slip out of the hand while using.

From the front we get a large 6 inch display, which in the case of e-book readers is standard. On the right, closer to the edge, there are two keys for easy flipping subsequent pages. In the settings you can personalize yourself, which is responsible for the revocation of hand, and that transfer us to another. This element of a large group of users lacked even the Kindle Paperwhite 3. He returns in glory, and they are very convenient. Their pitch is nice and perceptible, and at the same time thanks to the construction of what Amazon offers us very comfortable in use. When it comes to the turn of the edges are just at the top we have a micro USB output, and right next to the power button. Plecki device is apart from the magnetic connection that lets you connect the box, but the support.

Display

In the case of e-ink screens Amazon came almost to perfection. We receive because the Kindle Oasis display E-Ink Carta, who works at a maximum resolution of 1448 × 1072 pixels. What gives a density of 300 ppi. This is the best result among e-book readers, but similar screens for a long time are implemented in other readers like Amazon Voyage Kinle or Kindle Paperwhite third generation. Image quality is actually the highest shelf. The image is sharp, and the individual pixels you’d have to look with a magnifying glass. The screen just as on other devices is backlit. We have in total 24 states of the backlight, and Amazon has increased the number of LEDs to 10, so that the backlight is even and at the highest backlight setting is somewhat stronger than that found in the Kindle Paperwhite 3. As for the touch, it works flawlessly, the reader responds quickly any commands. The screen is covered with glass, which feel more slippery, less rough than the previous one in Paperwhite 3.

Battery

In the case of the most powerful devices from Amazon there is quite a specific embodiment, as compared to other readers. Because he has built a link with a capacity of 245 mAh (they have even more SmartWatch), additional link is in the case, so we dodatkowe1290 mAh, which gives in total 1535 mAh. Of course, this is more than even the Paperwhite 3 (1420 mAh) or Voyage (1320 mAh). After all, it seems that the dimensions of these devices could cram a little roomier link, but the situation of course, saves the screen, which is not so prądożerny. But when we use the same reader without a case, the battery descends very quickly and needs less more for about 8 hours of reading, of course, when connecting case this time is much longer, but even these are not months, but weeks. What disappointed me a little bit and give you generally say taking noticeably worse than even Pawperhite Kindle 3. It is worth noting that when we connect to our reader case, the load cell located in the same device thanks to magnetic link. Sam reader unhindered can charge using the micro USB cable and a computer or charger. In conclusion, in terms of the battery even though the paper is greater capacity than the one provided in pre-exercise in practice worse. If you want to take with you on a long trip Kindle Oasis need to bring the charger, without it there’s no way.

Case

The case that we have with the kit is primarily one basic task – increase the capacity of the base of the cell, which is located in the reader. Once connected to the Kindle Oasis adheres very well and connects to the device. So even holding the same case has no right to disconnect kombinował to separate the duo “by mistake” during reading, but fortunately did not succeed. Case is made of leather. The outer part is delicate, good quality and very good looking. The inner part of the case resembles suede, very soft to the touch, so you do not draw on the screen when closing. As for the case I have one major complaint. It does not protect virtually all the devices if you fall. Yes protects the screen FOR IN scratches, but all the most sensitive edges are exposed as just not quite fit me for this device.

Software

Kindle Oasis runs on the same software as virtually the entire Kindle family. At the top we find the main navigation bar, which is a few basic icons and functions. Going from right home, reversing backlight settings, access to the store, search and last called. hamburger menu, which hides the more advanced features like web browser, better management of our ebooks or access to the settings of the reader. The whole exercise without problems. Options whether the individual functions without problems can be quickly found. Having already opened the same book appear even more advanced features associated with the personalization reading for example. We can change the font, its size and marking the progress of reading the book. We also have a web browser, although its use is not the most convenient, and this is due to the very specific nature of e-ink screen. Unfortunately, as used to happen earlier Polish reader users Amazon does not affirm the interface in our native language.

Performance

Kindle Oasis is a device of the highest quality, and so we have the strongest bebeszki. First of all, the most important role is played by RAM. We have the 512 MB, so you do not feel any problems with slow performance interface. The whole works without charges. Pages load quickly, without interface problems responds to user commands. The only element that I noticed on a downer wake the device. If the reader is left for a while and go into hibernation, then his arousal takes noticeably longer, it is possible that this is related to saving battery life, but not to the end I am convinced. While this is not a particularly irritating element. The more that in other cases where once we wake up the reader immediately begins to react to our commands.

Connectivity

Sampel that I received for testing is the most expensive version of the reader, because it contains both the Wi-Fi and 3G. However, this is not the end of a 3G we know eg. On smartphones. Here, this communication can be used only to retrieve our e-books from the cloud, browsing the store Amazon and display information from Wikipedia. There is the possibility of surfing the web using a browser, unless it is connected to some Wi-Fi networks then this option unlocks. For this bajer module 3G we will have to pay the 60 euros, or about 250 zł.

Summary

I have a problem with the appreciation of Oasis Kindle device with virtually no defects. You can attach the battery performance is quite sophisticated shapes, but these are very minor weaknesses, but on the other hand, there is a price that is almost cosmic. For the version which he tested with the module 3G and Wi-Fi will cost about 349.99 euros which give the amount of about 1500 zł. For less than half find Kindle Paperwhite third generation, which has the same display may be larger dimensions and weight, but after all this is not so significant difference. Of course you have to take a decision alone, but I think that it is worthwhile to shop around for a little less expensive.

Kindle Oasis – Reviews – MobileWorld24.pl (Blog)

Amazon with its line of Kindle readers can tell revolutionized the approach to e-reading. Devices is globally a number of different price levels. Now I have the opportunity to test top of Amazon’s device, specifically Kindle Oasis. What stands out from the competition? What gives opportunities? You will see by reading the following review.

The contents of the box and specifications

The box like a box. Absolutely minimalist, containing the most essential markings and information. When it comes to the turn of the contents of the package as it did in the case of my Kindle Paperwhite third generation so here we get only the micro USB cable to charge the (lack here plugs into an electrical outlet), and we have case about which I will write more in one of the following paragraphs.

When it comes oz turn of the same specification we get just as in pre-processor and clocked at 1.0 GHz and 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB built-in memory.

Quality workmanship and design

what is the first to throw in the eye for the fastest reader, Amazon is the size. These are considerably reduced compared to even Kindle Paperwhite third generation – is smaller, lighter is achieved with two treatments. First, reduced size of the battery in the device (battery part redeployed to the case), the second frame are also noticeably smaller around the display. The reader has a more rectangular than square. Kindle Oasis also is not totally flat plecków. It has a handle like “bulge” that makes it convenient to hold the device in one hand. At this scale has no problems to eg. The hand numb and hurt). Before I first saw the device on the renders I was not convinced by this solution. But when I got the test sample and I had the opportunity a little longer to read using the Kindle Oasis such a solution to my liking. Anticipating the questions, the whole has been prepared so that both right and left-handers will freely be able to use this solution, because the screen automatically changes orientation (we do not have here the horizontal and vertical orientation, but the screen rotates 180 degrees). The entire reader is made of plastic. It is good quality, but in my opinion a little too slippery, but the situation saves finish earlier said bulge, which is covered with a thin layer of rubber, so there are no problems and the reader has no right to slip out of the hand while using.

From the front we get a large 6 inch display, which in the case of e-book readers is standard. On the right, closer to the edge, there are two keys for easy flipping subsequent pages. In the settings you can personalize yourself, which is responsible for the revocation of hand, and that transfer us to another. This element of a large group of users lacked even the Kindle Paperwhite 3. He returns in glory, and they are very convenient. Their pitch is nice and perceptible, and at the same time thanks to the construction of what Amazon offers us very comfortable in use. When it comes to the turn of the edges are just at the top we have a micro USB output, and right next to the power button. Plecki device is apart from the magnetic connection that lets you connect the box, but the support.

Display

In the case of e-ink screens Amazon came almost to perfection. We receive because the Kindle Oasis display E-Ink Carta, who works at a maximum resolution of 1448 × 1072 pixels. What gives a density of 300 ppi. This is the best result among e-book readers, but similar screens for a long time are implemented in other readers like Amazon Voyage Kinle or Kindle Paperwhite third generation. Image quality is actually the highest shelf. The image is sharp, and the individual pixels you’d have to look with a magnifying glass. The screen just as on other devices is backlit. We have in total 24 states of the backlight, and Amazon has increased the number of LEDs to 10, so that the backlight is even and at the highest backlight setting is somewhat stronger than that found in the Kindle Paperwhite 3. As for the touch, it works flawlessly, the reader responds quickly any commands. The screen is covered with glass, which feel more slippery, less rough than the previous one in Paperwhite 3.

Battery

In the case of the most powerful devices from Amazon there is quite a specific embodiment, as compared to other readers. Because he has built a link with a capacity of 245 mAh (they have even more SmartWatch), additional link is in the case, so we dodatkowe1290 mAh, which gives in total 1535 mAh. Of course, this is more than even the Paperwhite 3 (1420 mAh) or Voyage (1320 mAh). After all, it seems that the dimensions of these devices could cram a little roomier link, but the situation of course, saves the screen, which is not so prądożerny. But when we use the same reader without a case, the battery descends very quickly and needs less more for about 8 hours of reading, of course, when connecting case this time is much longer, but even these are not months, but weeks. What disappointed me a little bit and give you generally say taking noticeably worse than even Pawperhite Kindle 3. It is worth noting that when we connect to our reader case, the load cell located in the same device thanks to magnetic link. Sam reader unhindered can charge using the micro USB cable and a computer or charger. In conclusion, in terms of the battery even though the paper is greater capacity than the one provided in pre-exercise in practice worse. If you want to take with you on a long trip Kindle Oasis need to bring the charger, without it there’s no way.

Case

The case that we have with the kit is primarily one basic task – increase the capacity of the base of the cell, which is located in the reader. Once connected to the Kindle Oasis adheres very well and connects to the device. So even holding the same case has no right to disconnect kombinował to separate the duo “by mistake” during reading, but fortunately did not succeed. Case is made of leather. The outer part is delicate, good quality and very good looking. The inner part of the case resembles suede, very soft to the touch, so you do not draw on the screen when closing. As for the case I have one major complaint. It does not protect virtually all the devices if you fall. Yes protects the screen FOR IN scratches, but all the most sensitive edges are exposed as just not quite fit me for this device.

Kindle 8 – test – Benchmark.pl – benchmark.pl

Kindle 8 is a basic e-book reader offered by Amazon. It is clearly cheaper than the Paperwhite, Voyage and primarily Oasis. Understandably, much of them are also different. First of all, we do not find here doświetlanego screen, so you can read even late in the evening or at night without turning on additional light source. To lower the price of the device used here also display a lower resolution.

Does this mean that the latest Kindle edition 8 should not have a reason to exist? On the contrary. This is an excellent example of how we should look modern, easy to use and seamlessly operating reader, which in addition is available at a very affordable price.

Appearance and ergonomics

I had the opportunity to test a lot of readers, including the latest model of Kindle Oasis (in which I fell in love, but for me it is too expensive ), as well as probably currently the most popular reader Paperwhite 3 (my primary reader). In terms of design the new Kindle 8 ranks right between them. It looks much like Paperwhite, but in terms of lightness much closer to his Oasis.

8 Kindle is surprisingly light. Weighing just 161 grams, which is over 40 grams less than the Paperwhite. The difference on paper might not seem so significant, but I assure you that it is very clearly felt in the course of reading. “The eight” is much more comfortable to hold in one hand than the Paperwhite. Weighing only 130 grams Oasis can compete in this respect with the new kundalini.

The second thing is much narrower frame around the screen. At first glance, it seems by the fact that the display itself is smaller, but it is only an illusion. As with all Amazon readers, here we have a screen size of 6 inches. Smaller frames make, however, that the reader is more convenient, take up less space and easier to hold in your hand.

the housing reader is made of matte plastic. However, while the Paperwhite rear part of the casing is made of plastic with a rubberized texture, so Kindle 8 of the missing. By this reader is a little more slippery, and for that you need to get used to – I think that this is our first e-book reader, it will not be this problem.

Those seeking a large number of connectors will probably be disappointed, but in truth, no additional ports in addition to the micro USB are not needed here. This terminal will serve to charge the reader and connect it to your computer (in this way you can eg. Upload larger files, such as a book with a lot of illustrations or photos).

Display

Ok, the new Kindle is lighter and more portable than its older and more expensive brother, so why is it so much cheaper? The difference lies mainly in the display. We are here because E Ink Pearl display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, which gives a ratio of ppi of 167. This is almost two times less than the Paperwhite models and Oasis.

If you change to either of these readers , the difference will be visible to the naked eye. Fonts are less clear (this is especially evident in the case of the font Palatino, which on 8 Kindle just looks bad). Choosing popular Bookerly is much better. Unfortunately, photos do not reflect this fully.

There is also more light here. When reading during the day is not noticeable, because text is perfectly readable (no different from ordinary paper). However, if you want to read in low light (in the evening, at night, or even on the tram), it can not do without an external source of light.

Work

When it comes to working time, it does not fault anything. When fully charged, the battery energy is enough to us for a few weeks. I use it both in the course of a week’s holiday and the usual working days, when I had time to read in the tram or just before bedtime. During the two weeks testing the battery level dropped to half, so I can safely say that it is good.

The service and menu

Menu reader is identical to the more expensive models. By launching the Kindle first go through a quick tutorial, where you can get tips on how to use the reader. We will learn how to change the page, how to run menu and connect the device to the network and register your account Amazon.

Sam main screen to view recently read books and orders from Amazon. The latter can be turned off in the settings. Our books are located in the My Library. Here one important thing. We are here because two views. By selecting “All” will display all the books we have placed in the Amazon cloud, while “Downloaded” is a book downloaded to the reader or uploaded directly from your computer. Books can be displayed as a list or as thumbnails of cover art (if available).

at the top of the screen is the menu bar, where we find a shortcut to the home screen, turn on flight mode, synchronize the reader from Amazon account (useful if you read on multiple devices), and go to store.

More advanced settings are in a separate menu. We set there, among others, WiFi connection, device name, connect to Facebook and Twitter to share your favorite quotes, you can also set parental controls or restore the reader to factory settings.

Read

well, and how latest Kindle works in practice? Very good. If you want to start your adventure with e-book reader, the “Eight” is probably one of the best choices at this point. The reader works fast, I got the impression that even faster than the Paperwhite and Oasis. This is due to the fact that here we have the screen with a lower resolution, which is much less stress for the components.

Of course, during the change of sides, this difference is not so important, but it can be seen, eg. When browsing the menu . The difference is, however, visible in display quality. Unfortunately, E Ink Pearl in this respect quite significantly inferior nowszemu E Ink Carta, so the first time during the change from the Paperwhite for me was quite painful. Fonts are less clear and sharp. Fortunately, after a long time somehow forget about it and just dove in reading.

we can not however forget about the lack of additional lighting, so reading in the evening we have to support the lamp. If, however, and so lighting is not for us a key element of the reader, the Kindle meet expectations.

It is light, handy, and its price (especially by ordering directly from Amazon store) is very advantageous. 8 Kindle, it’s just a very good device. Perfect for that, to see if the e-book reader, it’s something for me. I recommend it!
