make the book fair amazon and the German book trade giant Thalia and worldview before new versions of their e-reader. The current devices differ in details from the predecessors. The software has been updated and replaced some of the hardware components. At first glance, you can Tolino new just as the new light-Kindle differ from the previous vintage. That changes after power on.
We have tried out the Kindle Paperwhite – the major changes compared to our test of the model of 2012 are summarized below:
screen : The resolution is as high as the 2012er Kindle Paperwhite. At the edges of the letters are no stairs to see the font appears clear and sharp. The illumination of the screen is more uniform than in the previous year’s Kindle. The contrast has also slightly higher, but these differences are small. When you continue reading represents the new Kindle Paperwhite the next page shows slightly faster than the old model.
search : Most Amazon has changed in the software of the Kindle Paperwhite. So now you can search with a practical display two pages on the screen in comparison. You can also call to jump there without reading any already marked text. For comparison, the second page about the actual text is displayed, you can then scroll or jump back there. Advanced dictionary: If you tap on a long word in the text, the White Paper does not show is now only statements from the preinstalled dictionary on, but contributions to the Wikipedia search word (english and German entries).Vocabulary Trainer : Once Searches can be looked up automatically and to log on vocabulary trainer to expand his vocabulary in German or English. With little training program can test his knowledge, display the word collection, Refetch explanations or highlight the concepts as learned.
Conclusion : Who has a White Paper Kindle, the model must not buy new – the extensions make a good device anyway a little better. Compared to the German light Reader Tolino Shine and the new Kindle Paperwhite has the old Cons: The system is closed, you can not just read e-books from other online stores with the Kindle and not borrow at German libraries, e-books.Tolino Shine, however, has more memory and can be expanded with memory cards. Since the Tolino (unlike Amazon Kindle) supports the widely used e-pub standard (and the Adobe copy protection), can be purchased at many online shop e-books.
