Description:
The Amazon Paperwhite 2015 (Kindle Paperwhite 2015) comes with a 300ppi E Ink Carta touchscreen that uses a non-reflective display, which the manufacturer claims to reduce glare when reading under direct sunlight, and it claims that its front-lit lighting technology reduces eye-strain when reading in the dark, unlike other back-lit models. It also sadly excludes the audio output feature of the previous model, which removes its text-to-speech and audio playback capability.
Also known as: Amazon Paperwhite 2015.
