However, the SE kicks things up a notch by also adding a new auto-adjusting light sensor that picks up on the level of light around you and automatically alters the brightness of the display to suit. Similar to a smartphone, one quick press or swipe is all you need to engage with the screen, with load times also relatively fast.īoth the standard 2021 Kindle and the Signature Edition now come with a handy built-in adjustable warm light, and a dark mode that conveniently helps you transition from daytime to night-time. In fact, one of the first things I noticed about the Paperwhite Signature Edition was how responsive the touchscreen is. According to Amazon, page turns are also 20 per cent faster than the 2018 model, which means you can get stuck into your story with less disruptions. While previous updates to the Kindle Paperwhite’s hardware have been relatively minor, both of the 2021 models arrive with a proper hardware refresh.īoasting the latest generation E-ink display, the new Kindles offer better performance and device responsiveness than the older versions. The new Paperwhite is roughly the size of a small paperback novel. When it comes to the lock screen, the Signature Edition offers the option to display the cover of the book you’re currently reading ad-free, which is a nice, personalised touch but probably isn’t necessary for most readers.Īs always, the Kindle display is black and white only, so don’t expect anything overly spectacular here (and don’t believe the photos you’ve seen on Instagram - the coloured covers seen there are simply the work of some clever editing). It’s slightly smaller than a standard paperback making it a great size to throw in my bag and take with me on the go with the 208g device barely making a difference to the overall weight. The downside, as some online reviewers have noted, is that this can cause you to flip pages inadvertently, though I can’t say I’ve experienced it.ĭespite being ever so slightly taller and larger than previous models, I found the Paperwhite SE fits nicely into my (admittedly small) hands and is comfortable to hold onto one-handed. Measuring less than half an inch from the top and sides, the change gives you around 20 more words per page. The only real difference in aesthetic, other than the size, is the 2021 displays have smaller bezels than their predecessors. While both 2021 models offer larger 6.8-inch screens (compared to 6-inches on the 2018 model) and more LEDs for a 10 per cent brighter screen, they both carry over the 300 pixel-per-inch density, a screen that sits fairly flush with the front of the device, the rubber, non-slip backing and the IPX8 waterproof rating. In terms of design, not a lot has changed about the Paperwhite since the 2018 model.
