Amazon Kindle | Now With A Built-In Adjustable Front Light

All-new Amazon Kindle is now with a Built-in Front Light where Black – Includes Special Offers! Basically, the adjustable front light lets you read comfortably for hours. May it be indoors and outdoors or even day and night.

When Amazon created its line of Kindle e-readers, one of its advantages was Amazon’s online presence and store. Amazon leveraged this advantage by providing an always-on 3G connection called “Whispernet” to its early Kindle models. An option still available on the latest offerings in the Kindle line.

With Whispernet, users can browse the Kindle store, make purchases and view some Web content. Whispernet success has led the company to offer the technology to companies and other organizations as a system called Whispercast.

In addition to Whispernet, Amazon also provides Whispersync and Whispercast. The former is a bookmarking solution that allows books and other content to be synced between different devices automatically. Although Whispercast is similar to Whispersync, it’s corporates based.

What is an Amazon Kindle?

By definition, the Amazon Kindle is an electronic reading tablet. In that case, that enables you to purchase and download books, magazines, and newspapers directly to your device. The Kindle isn’t just for reading, however.

Important to realize, as an Amazon Kindle owner, you can use your device for other entertainment purposes too. Including playing games, managing a to-do list or reading your favorite blogs.

What are other added features in the new Amazon Kindle with Front Light;

  • Purpose-built for reading, with a 167 ppi glare-free display that reads like real paper, even in direct sunlight.
  • Read distraction-free. Highlight passages, look up definitions, translate words, and adjust text size—without ever leaving the page.
  • Select from millions of books, newspapers, and audiobooks. Kindle holds thousands of titles so you can take your library with you.
  • With Prime Reading, Prime members read free with unlimited access to over a thousand titles.
  • A single battery charge lasts weeks, not hours.
  • Enjoy more books with Audible. Pair with Bluetooth headphones or speakers to switch seamlessly between reading and listening.G

Generally, the new Amazon Kindle is designed as a dedicated e-reader. In the end, allowing you to indulge your love of reading without interruptions. Such as the ever-annoying email alerts and push notifications.

Kindle now includes a touchscreen interface, which makes it easier to use features like X-Ray, Goodreads, built-in dictionary, highlighting, and more. And with a glare-free screen that looks like real paper, you can read as easily in bright sunlight as in your living room.

By the same token, Kindle uses actual ink particles and proprietary, hand-built fonts to create crisp text similar to what you see in a physical book. The blacks and whites on the screen are uniforms, improving text and image quality.

Eyes on the eyes

Every time your eyes switch from a bright screen to a dimmer, ambient room, your eyes have to adjust, which may result in fatigue. With Kindle, the page is the same brightness as everything else in the room, so there’s no adjustment needed.

Kindle does not require power to maintain a page of text, allowing you to read for weeks on a single charge.
