So I ended up shattering my iPad last night and am in the market for a new e-reader. It does not have to have audio/the ability to play videos but that would be a plus. What do you guys think would be the best bang for your back e-reader? Is the paperwhite any good - I've heard good and bad things.
Thanks in advance

I have a paperwhite. Love it. It's Kindle #3 for me since I ended up breaking the first two. Been using a kindle since 2010.

I can't read for long periods of time on a traditional LCD screen. Starts to hurt my eyes after a while.

Did you get the one with ads or no ads? I read a lot of issues with charging the paperwhite. Have you had any issues?

I have a Kindle Fire and like it fine. Plus I have the Kindle app on my ipad and iphone. They work fine, too.

When I got my Kindle Fire, I cheaped out and got the one with the ads. That sucked and so I went back and paid the extra $15 ransom and had the ads feature removed.

I have had the ad version of the kindle paperwhite for several years now. No issues with charging on my end.

Ya I have the no ads one. And no, zero issues with charging on the paperwhite or my previous two.

I've had my paperwhite, no ads, for just under 6 years now and it is still going strong with no charging issues. I highly recommend one if you do a lot of reading.
