How large is the avg ebook file? If you are buying books for the kindle, i cant imagine that 8gb wouldnt hold thousands of books? Is 16gb really for datahoarder types who wish to have "all the books"?

For me, 8 gb is enough for almost a hundred or so of text only books. on my old jailbroken kindle, i have dozens of books and a few pdfs, anime mangas and picture books and I have about 2.2 GBs left.

According to a websiteâ‹®
https://www.howtogeek.com/801844/...-a-kindle/

They assume 2MB per book, 6 GB of usable space on 8 GB kindle, at about 3k books.

Hope this info helps. happy reading!

16gb is geared towards comic readers and audiobook listeners, ie things that use a lot of memory. If you're only reading regular books, 8gb is plenty.

These newer paperwhites let you play Audible books as well, and they will take up more space. And yeah, some people just like to have all their books on their kindle at the same time. If you're not doing audio, I don't see why you'd really need more than 8gb, but it also wouldn't hurt to pay $10 more just to have the space in case you wanted it later.

They also have the essentials bundle kit that comes with the Kindle Paperwhite, Black Fabric Case, and charging adapter for $120.97. I got this bundle just for the case alone.

If you chat with Amazon customer service and simply ask them to remove the ads, they will do so for free. Super easy. Definitely don't pay to remove the ads

Got it used couple months back from Amazon for $60. Looked brand new and works great. Definitely worth getting if you do any kind of recreational reading. It's my first e-ink reader and a serious game changer.

I bought mine during Black Friday of 2021 when this 6.8 had just been released and it was $105. So Amazon hasn't really dropped the prices much as the models get older, like they used to.

Back in the day, they used to have Some competition from Nooks or whatever, but I guess those days are over.
