Sharp player – Test your Kindle Paperwhite 2015 – PC World

The Kindle is a veteran among e-book readers. Now Amazon
 launches a completely modified version of the model class
 Kindle Paperwhite average. Let’s see how does it compare with
 previous model and compared with Amazon’s flagship reader -
 Kindle Voyage.

Sharper with 300 ppi

Display Size Kindle Paperwhite remained the
 himself and the visible surface of the screen still has 9 x 12.2 cm, but its
 the resolution is much higher. E-ink display shows
 now 1448 x 1072 pixels, which gives 300 ppi (pixels per inch). It has
 So almost nearly the same resolution as the higher model of the Kindle
 Voyage. The new version of the Paperwhite display text and
 the images are clearly sharper, and the pixel can not be
 already recognize . As with all displays of
 E-ink image is very poor contrast, but the difference in
 compared with about 300 gold more expensive Voyage is small. Voyage
 offers for równomierniejsze lighting.

Almost like a printed book: thanks
 high resolution texts are perfectly sharp

Even if the text does not look more like a printed book, the
 with active backlight Paperwhite much to her
 approaching. However, this feature heavily drains the battery and if it
 we use it after a few hours we will have to charge
 device. Without backlight battery withstood the test
 more than 86 hours , which is enough to read almost 5200
 pages. Paperwhite is charged through the microUSB socket. Readers
 not having USB power adapter must be bought.

battery in the Kindle does allow for
 long read, but one day even he will require recharging.
 Using the enclosed cable fits into any USB power adapter for
 an example from your smartphone or tablet. The original charger Amazon (for
 photo) costs about 85 zlotys. No bargain, but for this race
 Charging is sufficient even for tablets.

Beautiful new font

New Kindle Paperwhite got a new font Bookerly, a little
 prettier than its predecessor and clearly visible even in the slightest
 size. Owners of older should get a new Paperwhite
 font update.

Touch Menu

Starting Paperwhite is as simple as can be
 I would imagine : Enter the password for the Wi-Fi connection, log in
 to the Amazon account and we can start. The most important settings
 We introduce rapidly in the menu bar that appears when you
 touching the top of the screen.

  Paperwhite user must manually adjust the brightness of the screen. Who
 wants to automatically adjust the brightness, must reach the
 Voyage expensive model.

Vulnerable scratch

From the outside, the Paperwhite nothing has changed – the reader still has
 soft plastic housing. This comfortable to
 hands, but quickly draws, as well as display .
 It is better to immediately pack Paperwhite in protective pouch. Thanks
 glass pane in front of the display Voyage is a robust,
 despite remaining considerably lighter.

plastic surface of the screen is quite sensitive to
 scratch, so it is worth investing in a protective case. It is
 Although stylish, but with the price of 200 zlotys quite expensive. Choice
 alternative products, however, is big, and it’s smaller
 money. A simple neoprene case is already available in 15
 respectively.

Summary

Thanks to the high-resolution reading on your new Kindle
 Paperwhite is particularly pleasant. The reader still a little
 missing for more expensive Kindle Voyage, but if you do not mind us
 a few grams more weight and we can put in protective Paperwhite
 case, it quietly will save 300 dollars. It is a pity that the new
 Kindle is strongly linked to the online store Amazon.
