I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

Uhh… What was the Kindle Fire? Wasn’t that color, it was basically a very dumb tablet instead of a smart eReader?
Paperwhite is awesome, anyway. Great battery life. Perfect format. USB-C for charging, unlike the Oasis, seriously fuck you guys so hard for giving the Oasis microUSB, fuck you fuck you fuck you. Sometimes…you just need to know your lane & stay in it.
The Kindle Fire was an Android tablet, not an e-reader. Completely different products.
My guess is that Amazon thinks everyone f9rgot about the Kindle Fire cuz that was before last quarter and that’s as far back as they remember.
Amazon Fire wasn’t an e-Ink screen, it was LCD.
But it was still a Kindle though?
No. It was a completely different product. It’s like trying to claim that an iPhone is an iMac because it has the “i” in the name and is made by the same company. Similar branding to help tie it together, but completely different devices.
More like saying an ipod shuffle is an ipod…
In name, sure. But not really. It was Amazon trying to sell an Android tablet on the Kindle brand. It could read Kindle books using the same Kindle app as any Android device, but it was far more than an eReader and didn’t feature the eInk screen that makes eReaders worth reading on.
