    Just got a second hand unit for a very cheap price. Looks, feels and performs like a brand new unit. I prefer using PW2 over my newer Basic 10th Gen. I just bought 2021 PW5. Still love the PW2.

    Useful review thanks. It seems a decent upgrade from the 4th generation Kindle I have. Slightly worrying that PDFs can be crashy - we'll see how that pans out when I get one.

    Great review. I like the PDF part especially as this could be useful in class with PDFs of PPT presentations (converted). It looks like the Kindle displays in portrait only which is a little limiting for PPT presentations in PDF format...would that be correct?

    This is the actual paperwhite version that is currently on Amazon's Kindle page, right? There's no paperwhite and paperwhite 2 options - just paperwhite. So this paperwhite 2 is the current paperwhite edition on their Kindle web page?

    Just got my Paperwhite 2 today. I called Amazon and I don't think they told me the truth. Mine has three or four books on bottom of screen. I asked how to get rid of that because I bought the one without adds. Are these adds and I have the wrong one? I was told that these are new releases. Your video doesn't have that in beginning.
