Hey, this is Kate with WTI. This is my Amazon Kindle. I don't know why I was so resistant to a Kindle. I just figured that I could read books just fine on the device that I was using. But as soon as I got this, I realized my mistake. This is incredible. This is the one I have. It is white and you can see the size is so nice and compact. You can really easily hold it with one hand. It is very simple. It is black and white. It doesn't get notifications like your device is going to get. So the focus is just on enjoying reading. It has the option to set up a little passcode if you want to lock it. You can adjust the brightness. So this is super easy to use. All of the settings are right there. But what's nice is that it has that front light. So if you are in direct sunlight, if you've ever tried to read with your electronic device in direct sunlight, then you know what a struggle that can be. You have the brightness all the way up and it's still hard to see. It's draining the battery. Your device is overheating. This has a front light. So you're not going to have that problem. It is very easy on the eyes and it's going to be the perfect brightness even if you're in direct sunlight. The words themselves and the screen looks like you're reading from a paper book. Easy to go ahead and just flip the pages. I got that ad supported Kindle. So this is what that looks like. This is just the sleep screen. So I just tapped the button to lock the screen. Like I'm going to come back to my Kindle and read in a little bit. And it just shows an ad of a book that is available. So that's all. It's not intrusive at all. The ads don't pop up while you're reading or anything like that. It's just when it's in sleep mode. So when it's laying down flat and you're not using it, you might see that ad pop up. Or if you're done reading and you want to put it in full sleep mode instead of just the lock screen with the ad, you turn screen off and that's it. Size is perfect. It's eight gigabytes. So it's going to fit tons of books for you to enjoy. That's just my point of view.
