Is it new, or new old stock though? I have one from 2022 and am loathing the day it finally quits on me. If the battery's from 2025 I would say it's good, if it's several years old I'm not so sure.
This has been my favorite of the series, though the biggest challenge for me has been that case options are extremely limited. I had a model that required a case replacement just recently (luckily the case took the hit from a drop), and I was very fortunate to have happened upon a single option available via eBay. In contrast, my older Paperwhite models were easily encased in various Otterbox and hybrid case options that have kept them safe despite being ridiculously long in the tooth.
I currently look at the Scribe models for potentially fulfilling my Kindle DX size dreams. Unfortunately, case options seem similarly limited(?).

Haven't had to replace batteries in a Kindle since my keyboard models... but nothing's off the table to keep these things going! https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Kindle_Oasis
Of course, I couldn't recommend shelling out this kind of money for a device that's truly been aging on the shelf. This price point is honestly a bit too close to refurbished Scribe range.

Not comfortable as a reader, and when I ordered it had a strict return method to Amazon.
