View allPicked one up for early Xmas shopping list.
8gb vs 4gb and 300ppi vs 167ppi
If you're reading comics, 300 ppi is the way to go.
I just upgraded from a lower ppi to 300 (on kobo ...) and found the text is much more crips.
One of my goals during the pandemic was to read more and watch less TV and my kobo clara HD has been getting a lot of use. I went with Kobo because it integrates with local library to borrow books for free.
So I wouldn’t pay extra for the paperwhite’s screen resolution
I would pay extra for the Kobo Clara/Libra’s adjustable front light color temperature (can make it more yellow like the night shift feature on your phone). If you don’t care about that, or overdrive library access on the kindle, this is a great price
One reason I got the fire 8 tablet a while back was because it renders all the books well but it's no eReader.
If you rename your drm-free epubs to .png or .jpg, extension instead of epub, you can email those to your kindle address. Amazon will automatically convert it for you, and send it to your device. Works well if you don't need to add a lot of ebooks on your device at one time.
You can also convert in Calibre if you have a windows/mac computer.
