Larger screen, better battery

Amazon launched an update to its Kindle Paperwhite e-book readers, adding larger screens, better battery life, and wireless charging at prices starting at $140.

The company launched three models, including the Kindle Paperwhite, the Kindle Paperwhite Kids, and the Kindle Paper White Signature Edition.

The basic paperwhite is only getting a modest update, with the screen being enlarged to 6.8-inches and the bezels slimming down. However at 300 pixels per inch, the company says that the new Paperwhite will resemble real paper. It features an adjustable warm light option for reading late at night.

Kindle Paperwhite Kids has the same specs as the main Kindle Paperwhite model, with an adjustable warm light and up to 10 weeks of battery life, as well as the same two-year guarantee,and one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+ the company offers on its child-focused tablets. Amazon will throw in a protective cover that comes in either Black, Emerald Forest, or Robot Dream colors.
