Amazon Kindle 3: Brilliant for what it is. (356 words)
by - written on 11/08/11 (Very useful, 17 readings)

The Kindle will never replace a real book for me, but as a gadget I think this is wonderful. It's easy to use, it's light, it's aesthetically pleasing in its slate coloured casing - but most importantly it can carry around the most enormous amount of literature, whether it's published or unpublished, fiction or non fiction. ...  Read the complete review

Although I was very interested in ebook readers from their introduction, I didn't plan on searching for one to buy until they got below £100 so was pleased with a Boxing Day deal from John Lewis - I got my Kindle for under £80. I'm not sure that a 3G Kindle at £152 is good value but £111 is on the precipice of being worth it. Here's ...  Read the complete review

The Amazon Kindle is (in my opinion) the best e-reader ever to be produced so far. In this review I will be explaining my reasons why it is so good. The Box: I thought I should mention the box as I was pleasantly surprised that it was a "Amazon frustration free" box which meant it was easy to open and ...  Read the complete review

I received my kindle as a gift about six months ago and I haven't been disappointed with it. Before getting one, I personally thought that I would miss holding the actual book and also miss that new book smell, but I have not found that to be the case. I have the wi-fi only version, so I cannot comment on 3G capabilities. The ...  Read the complete review

I received this as a gift for Christmas. I love this device, and I am glad to of received it. I had been thinking about buying a kindle for a while, and hadn't really got round to it, now I wish I had after getting this excellent gift I very rarely put it down. The kindle has a fairly big screen which makes for easy reading. ...  Read the complete review

I was sceptical about ebook readers before trying an Amazon Kindle, but now I'm a huge fan of this wonderful little device that seems to do more every time I look at it! A quick run-down of a few included features: -Store around 3000 books on one device -Easily send articles from the internet to the Kindle to read ...  Read the complete review

I have only had my Kindle for less than 24 hours but I love it. While the device could handle things a little better (multiple bookmarks for example) the device delivers everything that Amazon said it would. This is my first Kindle so I can't compare it previous versions. I initially looked into getting a Kindle because I ...  Read the complete review

I mainly brought the Amazon Kindle as I was running out of book space. But I was also aware of the mixed reviews such e-readers had been getting and wanted to try one out for myself. I treated myself one last Christmas and found a number of advantages straight away. Firstly, when reading the screen it does appear to look the same ...  Read the complete review

After a bit of a break from reviews, I am back - with the reason for the break (other than university). With the amazon voucher I earned I bought myself an Amazon Kindle in March, and I can honestly say that it was a brilliant purchase. I'm a little bit biased towards it, and that really comes across when I sell it in work (I work in a ...  Read the complete review

When i got this product as a gift, i was highly skeptical and a bit apathetic towards the very concept of a kindle. Books have been around for a long time, and I didn't see why a replacement was needed. However, I have seen since the benefits of a kindle, and realised that the kindle revolutionizes the reading experience. ...  Read the complete review

As i travel alot worldwide dueto my job the ammazon kindle is a blessing. I bought the 3G version which comes with free 3G in 100 countries. The Screen is a massive bonus as it is nothing like a LCD screen and dosn't make your eyes strain which is put me off ebooks for so long. There is an abudance of books to choose from in a fair few ...  Read the complete review

As an avid book reader for 45 years since I was in junior school, I have to say that I did not expect to be converted from paper books to the electronic format. However, having been bought a Kindle for my birthday I have to confess that the sheer convenience of the Kindle is starting to win me over. Okay, admittedly the upfront cost is ...  Read the complete review

WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE? I bought my husband a Kindle for Christmas as he has nerve problems in his arms that make it painful for him to hold up a book, especially one of Stephen King's tomes. The problem was deciding which one. The Kindle reader comes in two options, the Wi-Fi option, which downloads books from Amazon using a wi-fi ...  Read the complete review

I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this. Although I knew that I wanted the product, I was not sure it was going to be of much use and will eventually just be chucked to the side and never be used. I can't comment on eventually being chucked to the side as I have not owned this for very long, but what I do know, is that i love it! ...  Read the complete review

There is a lot of debate about reading on computers and other electronic devices as opposed to traditional paper and ink. Personally I've been happy to read news mostly online for many years now, so the computer issue is not as major as it might be. I also have to confess that I do like gadgets. I often joke that if it has an lcd ...  Read the complete review

We usually go on holiday for 2 weeks a year and I take about 8 books to read. Since I retired we are spending a lot more time away, last year went to India for 6 weeks and obviously my luggage allowance would not allow me to take enough books for that timeframe. My husband suggested buying a Kindle and although I was unsure about it, I ...  Read the complete review

I never thought I would find a digital replacement that I enjoyed reading as much as a real book, but since giving the Amazon Kindle a go I have definitely been converted! I received my Kindle for my birthday and I must have spent about half an hour just poking at the screen - it really is something special. You don't need to ...  Read the complete review

The biggest advantage to owning a Kindle 3 is the ability to travel without taking several heavy books. Also, if you don't feel like reading the books that you had originally chosen to take on holiday (you take some 'worthy' reading and, when you get there, realise that you'd much rather have brought the latest Marian Keyes), then you ...  Read the complete review

The amazon kindle has taken the world by storm, and when you get one its easy to see why. The screen is easy to read thanks to amazons "Pearl" display technology. Furthermore this type of display only uses power when the image on the screen is changing, because of this the battery life is fantastically long and allows for ...  Read the complete review
