There are, of course, sacrifices to be made to hit that lower price. For comparison, the Kindle is actually shorter than an iPhone 14 Pro Max and only an inch-or-so wider.

It’s also the most compact, taking up less space in a bag and even fitting in larger pockets. Here there’s a 6-inch panel (rather than 7-inches), making this e-reader feel far more comfortable to hold with one hand than any other currently available Kindle.

With this version, there’s now no reason to pay more just for a sharp screen and that’s great to see. The previous base Kindle always suffered with a slightly blurry screen thanks to the meagre 167ppi resolution – it was perfectly adequate for the price, yet it couldn’t compete when compared to the Paperwhite. The sharper resolution makes everything you do on the Kindle look better: text in books and throughout the interface is sharper, cover art is crisper and it’s all just a little easier on the eyes. This upgrade is the display, which now matches the Paperwhite at 300 pixels-per-inch (PPI). The Kindle (2022) picks up one major upgrade over its predecessor that makes this both a fantastic upgrade to an older model and a valid alternative to the higher-end Paperwhite.
