Frequently Asked Questions
1. How is the screen on a Kindle different from a tablet?
Our Kindle devices are designed so you can read comfortably for hours. Kindle has a unique black and white glare-free display that reads like paper even in bright sunlight and enables weeks of battery life. With the display’s distinctive nature, slight shadows of previous text or images can sometimes remain visible on the screen. The display quickly refreshes occasionally to remove these shadows and ensure a high-quality optical experience.
2. How do I set up this Kindle?
You have the option to set up Kindle on the device following its on-screen instructions. If you opted in to link Kindle to your Amazon account for simplified setup at purchase, it will already be registered to you.
