All-New Design
Lighter & Thinner – Only 8.5 Ounces
When reading for long periods of time, we know that weight matters. That’s why we worked hard to make our newest Kindle lighter than ever – only 8.5 ounces – so you can read comfortably for hours with just one hand. Kindle is lighter than a typical paperback, and thinner than a magazine. Just a third of an inch in profile, Kindle fits perfectly in your hands.
Ergonomic Design
Kindle is easy to hold and read. We designed it with long-form reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand. Kindle’s page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you to read and turn pages from any position. The new soft-touch, textured back is comfortable to hold and never gets hot in your hands.
Never Gets Hot
Unlike a laptop or tablet, Kindle never gets hot so you can read comfortably as long as you like.
Simple to Use, No Computer Required
Unlike most electronic devices, we wanted to keep Kindle simple. Kindle is wireless and ready to use right out of the box – no setup, no software to install, no computer required.
- You can wirelessly send your Kindle content to your Kindle(s), to your computer, or to your other mobile devices. If you are outside a wireless coverage area, you can also download items to your PC and transfer them to your Kindle using USB.
- Use the expand feature in the Your Orders and Your Active Kindle subscriptions areas to download items to your computer or to send them wirelessly to your kindle(s), Kindle for PC, or other mobile device(s).
