Pack lighter, travel further Our thinnest, lightest Kindle Paperwhite yet, with a sleek, modern design so you can read comfortably for hours. Features our signature 300 ppi, glare-free Paperwhite display, printed-quality text and twice the storage of the previous generation. Plus a single battery charge lasts weeks, not hours. Make a splash With the waterproof Kindle Paperwhite, you’re free to read and relax in more places, including the beach, pool or bath. Paperwhite is IPX8 rated (tested in laboratory conditions) to protect against accidental immersion in up to two metres of fresh water for up to 60 minutes and 0.25 metres for 3 minutes in seawater. Unlock a new lockscreen Now you can display the cover of the book you're reading on the lock screen on your Kindle device. It's a great way to remind you to set aside more time to read.

The feature is available on the without ads version of selected devices, including Kindle (8th generation and later), Kindle Paperwhite (7th generation and later), Kindle Oasis and Kindle Voyage. Flip the switch If you have one of the devices listed above and it's up to date, you can activate the Display Cover feature right away. Go to the Settings tab, select Device Options and turn on the Display Cover option. Wi-Fi A Kindle e-reader with Wi-Fi is a great choice if you already have a high-speed Internet connection and wireless router set up in your home.
