You can actually enjoy a bit of drizzle and reading at the same time without worrying about your expensive gadget getting spoiled. This is the key reason why a majority of the people prefer the Paperwhite despite being more expensive.Īnother significant difference being an IPX8 rating, which makes the new Kindle Paperwhite water resistant. Thanks to the extra LEDs, the page lighting is a lot more even. However, you only get 4 LEDs to light up the screen which pales in comparison (figuratively and literally) to the 17 you get on the Paperwhite along with an adjustable warm light. While the base variant of the Kindle from earlier generations did not have this feature, the current one does. Another thing that sets apart the Kindle Paperwhite is its front lighting (not backlight) that lets one read content in pitch dark without putting too much strain on the eyes. While the former from the current generation has a smaller 6-inch screen with 167ppi pixel density, the latter has a 6.8-inch screen with 300ppi. While all Kindles have that screen, the resolution varies between the base variant and the Paperwhite.
It uses an E-Ink display that looks like paper. That is where an ebook reader like a Kindle came into existence with a screen very different to that of your smartphone or a tablet, or a laptop back then. While the whole idea of shifting to a digital format for books was about reducing paper usage (saving trees) and freeing up space in your shelf and travel bag, the readers would only be willing to switch if the experience felt closer to reading a physical book. How is the Kindle Paperwhite different from a regular Kindle?
