Unsurpassed Resolution

Stunning Contrast
With 25% higher contrast, enjoy crisp, dark text against a brilliant white background that makes for the perfect read.
Innovative Built-in Light
Paperwhite guides light towards the display from above instead of projecting it out at your eyes like back-lit displays, thereby reducing screen fatigue. You can adjust your screen's brightness to create a perfect reading experience in all lighting conditions, from bright sunlight to bedtime reading.
