E-readers have literally taken the world by storm in the last few years. Amazon’s Kindle was one of the first on the market and literally set the standard that others are judged by.
One of their latest editions is the Kindle Touch. This is a step up from the last generation’s Kindle Keyboard. The Touch offers the finger tap technology that many consumers have come to expect from their electronic devices.
What’s Different About the Kindle Touch?
Without a doubt, Kindle’s superiority over other e-reader devices is the ability to read in bright sunlight, just like a traditional paper book. With Kindle’s high-contrast, most advanced E-Ink touchscreen, it reads like real paper, with no glare. You can read as easily in bright sunlight as in your living room.
The new feature on this newest edition of the Kindle is the simple to use touchscreen, as well as an easy-to-use touch interface. You can turn pages, search, shop books and take notes quickly and easily, just like you would with a traditional book.
The Kindle Touch is easy to use. You can be using it within minutes out of the box. It connects to Wi-Fi hotspots at home or on the road, including free Wi-Fi access at AT&T hotspots across the U.S.
Once you find a book to read, you read it within sixty seconds with the free wireless delivery. No computer required. You can even email personal documents and PDF to read on it.
With an Amazon Prime membership, you can “borrow” Kindle books for free, including over 100 current and former New York Times Bestsellers with no due date. There are over 1 million books to purchase for the Kindle and over 800,000 are $9.99 or less. You can also access free samples of books, too.
With “text to speech” enabled, Kindle Touch can read English language content aloud to you.
E-books are backed up on Cloud so you never have to worry about losing any of your library. You can re-load it wirelessly at any time.
Special Kindle Touch Features
There are a number of features on the Kindle Touch that make it a unique reading experience.
Cons
Many users who complained were previous Kindle Keyboard users and they stated the Kindle Touch is not as good of a Kindle as the Keyboard model. They claim the contrast is not as good, with more grays on the Touch instead of the black and white contrast the Kindle Keyboard offered.
Some complaints on the Kindle Touch focused on the touchscreen being too sensitive, while others focused on it not being sensitive enough. This discrepancy is likely based on previous experience with touchscreens and what expectations users came to the Kindle Touch with.
This Kindle comes with or without special offers and this impacts the price. The special offers (or ads) were slightly obtrusive to some customers but overall it was not a big issue.

Notable Features on the Kindle Fire
The Kindle Fire offers a number of great features that make it an outstanding purchase for the price. Here a number of things it has to offer its users:
Cons
Just like anything, there are a few negatives to the Kindle Fire. The internal storage іѕ on the small side with οnlу 8GB. Amazon offers the Cloud storage an external storage alternative, making the lack of internal storage not a huge deal. While it supports certain Wi-Fi networks, the Kindle Fire doesn’t support connecting to ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Wi-Fi networks.
There is no external volume or home button on the Fire. It can’t support a Bluetooth for those that wish to use one. In addition, there is no customization available, such as Android’s flexibility where it allows customizing nearly all aspects of the OS.
Should You Buy a Kindle Fire?
Amazon has outdone themselves with the Kindle Fire. It certainly is worth the money, particularly if you don’t already own another tablet device. As expected with the Kindle, it’s first and foremost luxury is the ability to enjoy books.
Now you have the ability to enjoy other forms of media, including movies and TV shows. Despite the very few negatives, this tablet is worth the investment. It offers many benefits, including a low price, making it a worthy investment.
