This is one of the best comparison videos I've seen of the two kindles. Great work!
Thanks for the review! I love my 2019 Kindle but felt like 167 dpi screen is relatively grainy (and it's noticeable) and having the last micro-usb charged device in house is already a minor annoyance. I probably would've picked 2022 Basic, but in the end it all comes down to the price - Amazon started selling Certified Refurbished 11 gen Paperwhite for 89$ and 2022 Basic sells for 99$. I don't expect these prices would go any lower for Black Friday, so Paperwhite just looks like a better deal.
Great review man! I was thinking about returning my basic one and getting a paperwhite instead, but I think I'll stick with the entry level kindle for now. Nothing in the paperwhite is telling me I should upgrade.
Cannot understand why only Paperwhite edition has that warmth settings. This should be a standard function as it is in every mobile phone, so your eyes do not getting tired.

Just ordered a 11th gen Paperwhite off Amazon as they have a sale going. $99 for a 16gb to replace a 3rd gen Kindle that I bought all the way back in 2012. It was still working great but I really wanted the ability to read without a reading lamp in bed. Kept hoping the 3rd gen would break so I could upgrade but it never had any issues so I kept using it. Amazon quickly accepted the trade-in for 20% discount off the new one and instantly added $15 to my gift card balance Very easy process. Can't wait to start reading on the Paperwhite. Thanks for this review.

$99 for an 16GB 11th gen Paperwhite is a deal! Waiting for them to go on sale as I have no hurry to buy one. Paperwhite is currently at $170 w/o ads and 16GB.
Thank you, that‘s what I wanted to hear/see. I‘m going with the Kindle Paperwhite, especially because of the reason that I can adjust the screen light and also read at night 🌙
I just bought the Paperwhite because of the warm light option, since I only read at night before going to sleep

Great review enjoyed seeing the side by side as some have claimed the new was slower than the paperwhile, which clearly is not the case.
6:35 YES this is exactly what i needed to see about the reafing experience between the two THANKS
Okay, hoping they release a 6" Kindle with a sunken screen with warm light and all back colors available asap. Still a bit bitter they released the blue and green for the PW5 a year after its release.
I have the Kindle Paperwhite bundled cover and the bottom button has got hit once or twice by accident but when I AM actually holding the Kindle and reading I don't really think there is a much better spot for it, the sides would both be knocked very easily and even the top, maybe if I read without a case though I would have a better idea of where that should be. I wish the entry level Kindle was actually a Paperwhite Mini with the same exact everything but the smaller size. I'm fairly petite and I also have arthritis, the smaller version would work great for my hands as it's not a one hand device for me, but the color change is absolutely necessary for me as I suffer from migraines. Maybe I'll get the entry level just for size, but I do hope they consider dropping it and switching to a Mini
Thank you! Straight to the details, I really don't like glaring and that's way more annoying than the lack of warm light. I usually enjoy reading with a similar feel of a real book, so I usually turn off the light completely and use other sources (natural or lamps).
The size and weight would be a deciding factor for me. The ability to put it even in your jeans back pocket is just the ultimate portable advantage. So the question is what does the term "paperwhite" mean anymore as an advantage?
Thank you so much for this comparison video. It greatly helped me decide which one I want to buy. 5/5!
I have a Kindle Paperwhite 11th and I love it, but there is too much glare in the screen in comparison to the other basic Kindles.
I'm curious to see the kobo Clara e2 vs 'budget' kindle comparison. Is kindle faster than kobo?
The warm light of the paperwhite would be the only advantage, but every other aspect favors the basic edition for me. I like the smaller size, the lighter weight, because I usually put it into my pants rear pocket when I´m on the go. I even like the bezel of the frame, it caters more to my asthetics - and the less glare surface is even an advantage in bright sun (?). I don´t mind the cheaper material of the casing (to me the blue one looks much cheaper than the black one), but the much smaller price tag does it for me. Thank you very much for this detailed comparison 🙂

I don't really care for the warm light on my PW. The deal breaker for not getting the Basic was no "disable touchscreen". I read a lot while lying in bed and I hold the screen while lying down. That function is definitely one I use every night. If the Basic had that one feature, I would have saved myself some money and gone with the basic.
Hey, Nathan. Thank you for this awesome review. I found it really, really helpful.
Was leaning towards a boox ereader since I read a lot of ebups and didn't want to do convert/calibre or email to Kindle but just found out I can just share my epub file to Kindle and it's immediately in my library 🤯 so now I've decided on a Kindle 😂.

The review is outstanding! Which one would you pick? I am not sure if the dimensions of pw are convenient.
Great review, so straight. After watching, I go to the older version. Thanks!
I have oasis and kindle. Old one. But I use my kindle more, so I’m returning oasis. I like small size , especially with pop socket. And I noticed the difference in display quality side by side, but this upgrade is jus perfect. And USB C. I read my kindle with brightness at 0. I could be weird idk.

While I do genuinely prefer the basic model because I LOVE everything about it (small, affordable, basic utilitarian design, simple no nonsense features) I think I might get the paper white simply for the warm light. I love warm light so much that I literally have it on 24/7 on all my devices.
just upgraded my 7th gen kindle paperwhite to the 11th gen and i super duper love it!

Will I be able to read in complete darkness using a the kindle 2022? I currently use an iPad and Apple Books for reading, they have a book theme in there which I find pretty good, but I’m not a fan of the size and the screen still feels very digitized. Hoping a kindle will give me a more book like experience.
The warmth setting was kind of a deal breaker for me so i got a paperwhite.
Does it seem that the small one glitches more when moving around? I have never owned a kindle but just got the mini and it seems that the screen double glitches when moving around. Is that normal?
Can you please compare it with the new kobo clara 2e 🙏

wich one is more comfortable in the eyes?
I speculate that the 2022 Basic is using the screen from the 2015 Paperwhite. Amazon hasn’t told us so this is only speculation, but the 2021 Paper while is likely using the Carta 1200 screen. If that’s the case then 2022 Basic is incapable of doing the page turn animation. The Kid’s Edition is only ad-free while in Kid Mode. As soon as you take it out of Kid Mode you’ll get ads. That’s a very recent change.

Hi, I have an old 7th gen kindle PW but contemplating to buy one with dark mode. Which one is better?
The book covers have not yet appeared in the library.
I have just bought both the kindle paperwhite and the kindle 2022. I am surprised to say that I actually cannot say which I prefer. The kindle paperwhite has great battery life, a bigger screen (which comes with its disadvantages) and not much more that I could notice in comparison to the other. The kindle 2022 also comes with a great battery life (not as great as the paperwhite though), and a great screen. If the price was a big deal for you, then go and take the kindle 2022 as there is not too much between them. As for me, considering they were both my first kindle, I can say that they are both amazing and I am enjoying them a lot.
The only gripe i have is the rubber back is only signature edition as well
I have a 2019 Kindle but I find myself using a spare android phone for reading on the Kindle app instead. It's nice seeing the full color front book covers and especially the maps that are included in some ebooks. Plus the dark mode is nice too.
The page turn animation is only available on the paperwhite because of its screen. It has a certain type of screen that allowed it, so i've heard.
Looks like the font and screensaver is still not showing black. Pls test this and post a review. Try putting a password lock. Then and enter a wrong password and the screensaver becomes dark.
Hey guys, I´ve seen a lot of people with xp here, I am about the buy my first kindle, but I am in doubt which one should I buy, 11th gen kindle or paperwhite ?I mean the regular one costs 99USD, meanwhile the paperwhite version is about 139USD, it is a huge difference, is it really worth it to pay more for warm light and waterproof functionalities?

Honestly you're the only one that can answer this question, for me personally I'd choose the basic one as I don't read near any pool or during bath time. I don't enjoy reading in yellow light as well, I've never tried it yet but the "white" screen is close enough to the real book that it doesn't matter to me though. Also, I'm a sucker for blue LOL. Edit: I just keep thinking if kindle didn't exist, which I'll use a real book to read and I'll always try to be careful with it and not being around water that much, hence i chose the basic one.
I like the Paperwhite, but do kinda like that the regular one is smaller and easier to palm hmm..
I want the paperlike but I dont like that it’s bigger. The regular kindle is the PERFECT size!
Does it make sense to get the new kindle? I do bought the paperwhite 2021 for 100€ but not used it. Maybe the new one fits better in my hands but idk

You have to purchase the version that comes without ads. Although, other reviews have said if you did buy the one with ads, you should be able to call Amazon and ask them to get rid of the ads for free, considering you buy with them often. It's an extra $20 or so to buy one without ads, just depends if you're really scraping by to get the Kindle.

*BUYER BEWARE!* Amazon are selling the Kindle 2022 purportedly “without ads”, yet these devices clearly contain advertising in the form of lists on the home screen headed (and I quote), “Discover Books”, “Try Unlimited Reading & Listening”, “New releases in Kindle Store”, “Books that look great on Kindle” and “Most wished for Kindle books”. This is a clear cut case of false advertising, attempting to sell devices labelled, “without advertising” that clearly, and by the definition of the Law, contain large quantities of advertising.

Give me a bezel-less e-ink reader with a screen the same size and aspect ratio as a trade paperback, so I can hold the margins of the page, like we do when reading an actual book. Pagination afforded with a gentle pressure squeeze anywhere along any margin. Find Kindle displays far too small (literally smaller than some phones) and Kindle Scribe has stupidly big bezels, and I don't want nor need a pen-give me money off instead. I want a large book reader exclusively for reading books that feels like a book-none of them do! I don't need any pen or note taking features. I have a pen and paper for note taking and iPads are far more powerful for reading documents and note taking than the Scribe is. Someone make a good e-Ink reader, please. The kind of reader that would make those who prefer paper books want it. That's what I want. Not these tiny calculator screens we have now. And get rid of that obnoxious Kindle logo on the front chin.
Scratches show how clumsy you are. The paperwhite is a no no for me with that bezel and that horrible soft feel which ends up becoming sticky. I don't know why manufacturers continue to use it. My kindle from last year doesn't have dark mode which is the only reason I'd upgrade, but I won't because that's what amazon wants me to do. There's absolutely no reason why it can't be done on my model amongst other features.
