I agree that it would be more clear to say 6" or 6" display so as not to confuse it with the new kindle with a 6.8" display.
I'm not sure that following a badly formed previous post (with respect to size) is a good reason to continue with it. I'd err on the side of mirroring descriptions that the manufacturer and or industry uses.
That said it's a great deal. I've been very happy with refurbished kindles in the past.
but there is no point really, the ads are on the screen only when kindle is off. they usually show some book, related to what you reading. Or you can just turn off wifi on it, and ads will not show up at all, it will just switch to some screen saver picture when you turn it off.

I went with 6.6" because it mirrored other deals posted by the community like this one for the new version: https://slickdeals.net/f/16195261-kindle-paperwhite-2018-model-10th-gen-59-99-free-shipping-for-prime-members-60

The screen is a bit too...smooth. Previous gen paperwhite had a rougher screen surface, it feels much better to turn pages on it. I bought it for the "flush" screen hype, but ended up just returning it.
