CTOnews.com, September 13 (Xinhua)-- Amazon today announced a new model of its Kindle e-book reader, which brings some much-needed upgrades to entry-level devices. The new 2022 entry-level model has a 6-inch 300ppi display, longer battery life and, most importantly, the device's upgrade to support USB-C charging. This means that many readers can finally throw away the last Micro USB cable. The new entry-level Kindle will go on sale on October 12 and will cost $99.99 (about 691.93 yuan) (including advertising) or $119.99 (about 830.33 yuan) (excluding advertising).

Since the last update in 2019, the cheapest Kindle doesn't seem to be that cost-effective. It has the worst screen in the Kindle series, forcing users to recharge through old standards, and the design feels clearly like the previous generation. The Kindle Paperwhite has long been the default best choice: it has a better screen, better reading lights and USB-C charging, and costs $139, but it's worth it compared to the entry-level Kindle. (and Oasis, the higher the price, the better the screen. If users buy a new Kindle, they will also get a free Kindle Unlimited for four months. For another $20, you can also get the Kindle Kids version, which comes with a special cover and an one-year subscription to Amazon child-friendly content.

CTOnews.com learned that the new 2022 Kindle is $10 more expensive than the previous one and still doesn't have the beautiful reading lights like the Paperwhite. 2022 the new Kindle also has new colors: you can buy black or "denim" new soft blue. The new Kindle will be available in black, rose, denim and dark emerald.

In addition to charging and screen upgrades, the new Kindle has 16GB storage space. Amazon said the new devices would also last for up to six weeks, vaguely describing them as "the lightest and most compact Kindle models available". According to its website, the new Kindle is lighter than the previous model, with smaller sizes, but the screen size remains the same.

2022 the new Kindle and Kindle Kids are designed with sustainability in mind and with climate commitments friendly, and carbon emissions will be further reduced. Both devices are carefully purchased and made of 90% recycled magnesium. In addition, in line with the goal of making Amazon device packaging 100% recyclable by 2023, Kindle device packaging is 100% recyclable in the United States for the first time and is also made of 100% wood fiber-based materials from forests managed by responsible sources or recycled.
