CNBC reviews the all-new Kindle 2019, an e-reader that costs $89.99 and includes a light for the first time at this price.
Amazon recently upgraded its entry-level Kindle with a couple of new features, including a light for the first time in this price range. It's available on Wednesday, but I've been testing it for the past few days and have a few thoughts before you buy one.
I spent much of the last weekend making my way through a couple of books. I finished"Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine" and read more into"Pachinko." I have good eyesight, and I could definitely tell that the 167 pixels-per-inch resolution of the new Kindle wasn't as sharp or easy to read as the 300 pixels per inch on the Kindle Paperwhite. Text just looks slightly blurrier, especially in smaller menu items.
Battery life is really good. After reading for several hours over the weekend and through Monday, I still had more than 70 percent of the battery life left, even with the light switched on. Amazon promises up to four weeks of battery life, and I typically get close to that with most Kindles.There are a couple of things I wish Amazon changed. It still uses an old microUSB charger, one of the few I know of that still do.
