Putting a pop socket on your kindle is a game changer and makes it easier to hold when reading! Kindle normally shows the page # if you click the time left (it changes to show page #, time left in chapter and time left in book). You can also see page # when you’re in the book by clicking towards the top and a top and bottom “border” will pop up. The top should show like your settings and the bottom will show what page you’re on.
yess, I'm in my ebook era as well. I literally just read on my kindle and I love it, honestly I kinda regret not getting one early but its ok, we live and we learn
I got my kindle for Christmas in 2013 when I was 11 and I still use it now!!! it's not even struggling 10 years later, trust me when I say it will LAST
I recently bought this one after my first kindle just stopped working. This one is soo good, when I set it up it had ALL of my books on it including my audiobooks, the books I downloaded on my phone app and everything. It’s so amazing! As a physical book girl all my life I was apprehensive about the kindle when my sister bought me my first one 10+ years ago, but once I started reading on it I absolutely loved it. E-Readers are so convenient and portable. Instead of taking 3-5 books with me in my bag everywhere I just take my kindle!
I've watched a lot of videos on the Kindle Paperwhite, but now I'm glad that I'd bought the Kindle Oasis. It was an investment I made to read more and have the portability & privacy to read without people knowing what I was reading and how far into the book I am. Plus, I have a tendency to read more than one book around the same time before finishing them. If people are curious, I'd prefer to keep an air of mystery than make it obvious what I'm reading (which might be a fanfic). :P
i was just now watching videos about kindles because i’ve been thinking about getting one at some point, then i saw you uploaded this and now i think it’s a sign
i have a kobo since 2018 and it’s still great for me, it doesn’t lag or anything and even tho transferring the files requires a laptop i still prefer it to the kindle. also because when i bought it in my country kindle wasn’t even there yet (i know weird but 🤷♀️)and the few places that had kindle it was double expensive from the kobo, i don’t know just small things that makes me a kobo girly forever. BUT I TOTALLY SUPPORT YOU IN THIS, AND IF THIS MAKE IT EASIER FOR YOU THEN ABSOLUTELY YES, LET’S GO. i give you my emotional support too!
Here’s a Canadian Kindle hack…Some American libraries don’t verify your address when you sign up, so you can borrow books through Libby that you can use your kindle to read.
Ahh I went the other way! I went from KPW to Kobo Clara 2E. The new one is waterproof, there’s a sale, plus I’m supporting a Japanese brand over Amazon. My heart skipped a beat when you said you went from Clara to KPW, and relaxed a bit when you talked about why 😂😂 enjoy your paperwhite!
Are you still reading as much you were expecting/ hoping? I am contemplating a lot on whether I should buy one. I usually go into things head on and then forget about them lol
my work around thing for the page numbers is just a little math (its easy i promise ahaha) basically just look on goodreads how many pages the book is (like the physical copy not the ebook copy) and then times that by the percentage that you are in the book, and it'll give you a rough page number! like say its a 300 page book and you are 20% through, you'd get page 60! i like to track my reading daily by how many pages i read that day so this is helpful because i pretty much only read 🏴☠books lolz
For me, highlighting across pages on my Kobo works the same as it works on a Kindle. Also, I feel like your Clara HD is a bit more buggy/slower because of the processor. If I’m correct the newer Kobos are (a bit) faster. But all the same, I loved watching your video and I can definitely see why you chose the Kindle!!🩷🩷
I got myself a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition recently too, first one ever, I absolutely love it! Lately, I've been reading Fahrenheit 451, excellent book so far!
I love the entire video. I hope you enjoy your kindle! But I recommend to get a cover for it, the screen protector only will make the screen non glare free and the screen get scratch pretty easy. I saw some that have a stand and an elastic, I'm waiting for mine to arrive. And your drawings were so beautiful!
I graduated uni in May last year and you can (hopefully) expect your current student plan subscriptions to stick around for 6 months to a year before they cut u off for being a graduate! I think it took about 8 months before I stopped being able to sign up for student plans or get student discounts! Kinda varies from place to place (I'm US Based) I think my amazon prime account still believes im a student and charges me the student rate a year later
Just stumbled across your channel and subscribed. I recently bought both a Kobo Clara 2E, and the same Kindle Paperwhite as you. I love both. The only reason I got both is that Kindle doesn't let me borrow library books in Canada, but Kobo does lol. But also, I read a lot of ARC ebooks, and it's easier to put those on my Kindle. Love how you decorated it! I put stickers all over both my readers as well as a pop socket on each. I didn't get a clear case though, and might end up regretting that...But I did make some book sleeves which I'm using for a little added protection in my bag.
use calibre on your computer and transfer the doc to azw3 format, you do have to connect your kindle to your computer for this but you get page numbers. I use it for bonus scenes and extra scenes from author websites
i have a kobo right now and you can also choose whether or not to display the book cover and add a passcode :D but highlighting is a bit tricky on the kobo!
i was actually concerned when my kindle didn't come ad-supported bc all of the others ones did and i thought i got ripped off, but i remembered that i live in canada and the US loves its ads
I'm lowkey wanting a new kindle just so I can do the whole decorating my clear case with stickers and having a big size grip tok 😂 honestly, I'd do that for the one I have now if only I knew what model it was lol
You can look at your settings and it will tell you the model you have. Select all settings < devices options < device info Then at the top it shouldn’t say kindle (what type and generation). Hope that helps and you can customize it 👏🏻
@@fromthemoonandmybed omg thank you so much!! 😭 unfortunately, it looks like my kindle model is a discontinued and old one so there's no clear cases being sold for it 😅 but thank you! At least the mystery of what model I have has been solved XD
@@dokjayoon yes ofc I’m glad I was able to help, if you still were considering getting a new one like in the video you should totally consider I just got the signature version in the agave green color and it’s literally amazing! 🥲💕
Fun fact- someone did the rough maths and 8gb kindle- giving roughly 4gb (its more like 6) would hold roughly 8000 ebook. I looked into it trying to work out which size I needed lol 😂 sooooo… you should be ok with the 16gb (roughly 12 after kindle’s system stuff) Edit- also not me just started re watching VD as I’m looking up kindle videos 😅😅
The page numbers can show on kindle you have to change it to that. I think while you are reading you have to tap the bottom left corner and keep tapping until it shows page number.
For your kindle, I use to have the case you had until I realized I had scratches on my screen due to constantly carrying my kindle with me in various places. I would highly recommend getting a screen protector if you are going to stick with that case.
That's a good point. I love the cute clear cases with the pictures inside, but there's never a cover. I would much rather have a black case with a cover if it means I keep my screen pristine. Plus I just stick stickers on the top!
With the thing about ads, it depends on which one you get! I’m from England and I paid £10 more to get the version without the ads but if you get the version with the ads, you can pay later to get rid of them. A little bit annoying but then again, this is Jeff we’re talking about 🙃
God review, Sunny. One question, since I recently got also the 11 Kindle PW: Do you use a protection shield on your Kindle display in order to keep it off from scratches? And if yes, which one?
I had a Kobo but I got annoyed because so many books weren’t on there that I saw popular TikTok. And I realized it was because they were only on Kindle
I used to have the kindle paperwhite and it just died one day lol I do not know why it just never turned on again and it was new! I read somewhere that if you leave them standing up like on a bookshelf for a long time they just die. So I bought the kobo clara HD and so far it has been great it has had a rough life lol it falls and gets thrown across the room by my kids and it is still going strong haha
Also life hack for Libby: if you download a bunch of books to your kindle from there and turn your kindle on airplane mode the books won’t auto return to your library after the 21 days
Hi I'm really sorry but I just wanted to ask how you learned to draw that well? Like, any resources you used? You've shown your drawings in other videos as well and they're honestly incredible. I wish I could draw as well as you one day. Again, sorry for the random question and thank you so much for the video! ❤
Yes, I am also a broke college student and I just know how much of a lifesaver epubs are for us, broke bookworms 😂 Ngl, this is TEMPTING me to get one for myself 🤧
I noticed that your kindle stayed in black and white. Is that the same for all of them? Also, can you download apps onto it like other book reading apps?
Im actually deciding to leave the kindle after almost 10 years of owning them. I've just discovered that ebooks published in 2023 that you've purchased will be near impossible to move from your Kindle to another device. I just dont feel comfortable giving Amazon THAT much power over the device.
Wait - back up - did you just say that kindle supports epub now? Sooooo if I had a bunch of epub files saved on my computer, say, in book management software... I would be able to transfer those to a kindle (hypothetically) without converting them to some amazon-proprietary format...? pls confirm thx
hi, i have a *old* kobo too and i'd like to buy a new kindle paperwhite but i am worried because all my ebooks are epub, so does the new kindle support them without issues?
I'm thinking about buying my first e-reader, but I don't plan on $$$ books so much as 🏴☠️ them. I usually purchase my books and then read them as e-books when it's night or when I don't feel like holding the book, so I don't see a need to double spend on the same book. I had thought about a kobo, but then decided to settle on a kindle paperwhite because I was interested in the kobo libra which seems to no longer be available in BW, only in the colour variant. But now watching you say that a kindle doesn't display page numbers on a 🏴☠️ is making me hesitate. Even my phone shows page numbers on 🏴☠️ books and I like tracking my reading on storygraph. I suppose I can always grab my physical copy and search for the page I left off of on the kindle, but that seems like too much work just to track on an app when a kobo will still track my pages. Ugh.
I’m sure you the brightness and warmth should at the top of you kindle where the arrow is if you swipe it down and your Bluetooth should be there if not should be in you settings atless
I just got me Clara e2 last month because I want use my kobo plus more. I also have kindle paper white for my ku subscription. Yep have ereader addiction
hii, I edit the epubs on Calibre, you can change the cover and spacing and even convert to other formats if you'd want to. All my covers show on kindle after I transfer them :)
libgen is the best imo. my favorite used to be zlib, but that got taken down :/ i hear that they're still on telegraph though so maybe you can try that?
Honestly I *do* condone pirating books. Pretty avidly, too. In my opinion, if you can't afford books, you should be allowed to pirate them. I'm in the middle of saving up for college stuff, and can't afford to pay for e-books or hardcovers that I want to read. I feel like it's fair in my situation. If I really like a book and I can afford it then I'll buy it after I've read it, but that's few and far between. My main plan is to keep a list of the pirated books I've read, so that when I'm financially stable I can buy them all in the future. Y'know. When I can afford them.
Kindle is way way better than kobo in terms of usability and actually getting the book on the device. The only issue is the on off button being on the bottom so when you're reading it on a hard surface or in the bath on a bath rack, it switches off.
Putting a pop socket on your kindle is a game changer and makes it easier to hold when reading!

I keep seeing so many cute pop sockets 😭😭😭
But if you can put the pop socket on the case instead on the kindle
i love that you can transfer epub files because it means i can read fanfic on my kindle and i love it so much
SLAY
that’s what i do most of the time on my kindle😭
"Its also from jeff bezos" i keep imagining him gifting it to you personally-
He did

Los angeles county and Broward county library do this!

tip for the kindle to show progress on epub files: transfer them onto your kindle device using calibre!!

question: why not get the new kobo clara 2E? it's waterproof and honestly kobo is superior to kindle in literally every single regard.
I have a much older Kindle Paperwhite that I am comparing to the specs of the current Kobo Clara and there are no differences, lol.
for me i chose kindle simply bcs kobo is not compatible with libraries here and it’s very easy to bring books to my kindle via email

How you send epubs to your kindle and make it to shows the cover .??I can’t do that can you please explain it to me 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
hii, I edit the epubs on Calibre, you can change the cover and spacing and even convert to other formats if you'd want to. All my covers show on kindle after I transfer them :)
just wondering, does anyone name their kindle or kobos?
yess! hehe, I named mine Bessie :)
I've thought about it but I can never really get the name to stick. Only my car has a name
me after buying a kobo because of Sunny and watching this video: 💔
Just curious if anyone knows where to be getting these epub books in the uk 🧐 😂
Recently got my super old kindle out cuz my bookshelves are full and I have to stop spending money on terrible books (physical copies)
Where do you pirate books from? Besides libgen.
Libgen is the best
libgen is the best imo. my favorite used to be zlib, but that got taken down :/ i hear that they're still on telegraph though so maybe you can try that?
Honestly I *do* condone pirating books. Pretty avidly, too. In my opinion, if you can't afford books, you should be allowed to pirate them. I'm in the middle of saving up for college stuff, and can't afford to pay for e-books or hardcovers that I want to read. I feel like it's fair in my situation. If I really like a book and I can afford it then I'll buy it after I've read it, but that's few and far between.
My main plan is to keep a list of the pirated books I've read, so that when I'm financially stable I can buy them all in the future. Y'know. When I can afford them.
I just lost my kindle today 😢😢
the jeff bezos references killed me 😭😭
Kindle is way way better than kobo in terms of usability and actually getting the book on the device. The only issue is the on off button being on the bottom so when you're reading it on a hard surface or in the bath on a bath rack, it switches off.
RUclips is like an echo chamber. I tried a kindle and it's just no way comparable to the experience of a physical book
Definitely true i like ereaders because I ruin physical books taking them places
