Basic 6-inch Kindle e-reader uses an electronic ink screen that looks and reads like real paper. The matte screen reflects light like ordinary paper and uses no backlighting, so you can read as easily in bright sunlight as in your living room. Unlike tablet screens, Kindle has no glare.

Kindle Ereader vs Kobo Libra in our news:
2011. Amazon launches Kindle 4
The new Kindle 4 features a 6-inch, 600x800 E Ink Pearl screen, similar to the previous model, but most hardware similarities end there: the keyboard, a staple of earlier Kindles, has been removed and replaced with four physical buttons and what Amazon terms a “five-way controller,” a directional pad surrounding a button. Typing is now done using this controller and an on-screen virtual keyboard. Despite the inconvenience of text input, the removal of the keyboard significantly reduces Kindle’s size and weight. It remains comfortable to hold in one hand for prolonged reading sessions. Internally, Kindle is designed economically to meet the $79 price point. It supports Wi-Fi speeds up to 72.2 Mbps, has 256MB of RAM and 2GB of flash storage. All of this is powered by an 890mAh 3.7 V battery, which Amazon claims lasts about a month.
