![]() The Kindle Voyage is not only Amazon’s best e-reader, it’s probably the best e-reader you can buy. So it’s better to spend the money up front than to deal with one of lights. If you buy the non-backlit model, you can bet your bottom dollar you’ll end up buying a kludgy clip-on light down the road. The baseline Kindle is less expensive than these models, but you’ll need a supplemental light source if you want to read in darker spaces. But I’m recommending only the two models that also have backlights: the Kindle Voyage and the Kindle Paperwhite. Every Kindle has a non-glare screen, which is one of their principal advantages over LCD tablets. I’ll cover the Kindles first, since they are more or less dedicated to book reading. If you didn’t do it at the time of purchase, you can pay to “unsubscribe” from these special offers down the road by logging into your Amazon account and navigating to your My Devices page. These ads are the first thing you’ll see on a Kindle Fire when you wake it up, and they appear on a Kindle even when it’s asleep (fortunately, they’ll never interrupt your reading experience). You can also pay an additional $20 for a Kindle that doesn’t display Amazon’s “special offers”-advertisements that appear on the device’s lock screen when it goes to sleep. This 3G option is not available with the Fire series at any price. That can be super handy when you’re traveling away from home, but it tacks $70 onto the cost of the tablet. Here are a couple of other things to consider: You can purchase any Kindle with a 3G option that enables you to purchase books and sync to your account in the cloud, among other things, whether or not you have a Wi-Fi connection.

But the tradeoff for this versatility is that their lower-resolution screens don’t render text nearly as crisply as the Kindle models. ![]() The Fire series includes Amazon’s more versatile tablets, since they can be used for watching videos, playing music, surfing the web, playing games, and more. There’s the Kindle series, which are tablets with black-and-white displays based on e-ink technology, and there’s the Fire series, which are tablets with full-color LCD displays. Amazon builds two classes of tablets that can be used as e-readers.
