It had already been announced in recent days: The successor of the Kindle Paperwhite is just around the corner. The device is apparently Kindle Voyage hot, an ultra high-resolution 6 “have display -., And be expensive
On Wednesday the Kindle Voyage appeared already briefly on some Amazon pages, Colleague Caschy (Bremerhaven) discovered him in the German Amazon page. In Japan even was already the entire article page online.
In a Nutshell
- eBook Reader Kindle Voyage (= travel) are called, both internationally and in Germany.
- and the Voyage Kindle has a 6 “display. The resolution is 1440x1080px, so it is exactly as high as the previously hottest ebook reader, the Kobo Aura HD / H2O. Because of these but a 6.8 “panel, has the Kindle Voyage brings with 300ppi (Apple would say” Retina “) the sharpness crown.
- Amazon speaks of” intelligent front lighting “, which probably a brightness sensor is meant (you will be with the front light rather can not discuss politics). Also new are “Press Page” sensors – The Verge believed that this is virtually invisible to the scroll keys. Scrolls with a stronger pressure on the housing.
- 8mm thickness and 185 grams weight of the Kindle Voyage is significantly thinner and lighter than the Kindle Paperwhite 2 (203 grams). The Tolino Vision weighs about as much.
- Voyage of the Kindle will be available from November 4 to. The base model with Wi-Fi will cost 189 euros, the Kindle Voyage 3G will be available in Germany for 249 Euros.
The end of subsidies?
Probably the thickest surprise is the Sale Price: Amazon wants for his Kindle Voyage, as the previous model Kindle Paperwhite 2 currently costs 80 euros more obviously violent. The sharp display is undoubtedly a visible literally Plus, but the other new features rather fall under the rubric of “nice to have”
If you have a Kindle Paperwhite calls his own, for which the update is not worth. – that would be much more the case when Amazon had his new Kindle also donated a larger panel. For 6.8 “(Kobo Aura H2O) or 8″ (Pocket Book Inkpad) but you have access to the competition. Who for the first time wants to buy a eBook Reader, or at least the first illuminated reader will most likely continue to pick up the Kindle Paperwhite 2 and make the often probably.
While the Kindle Paperwhite 2 probably continue to be sold, is the future of the entry-level Kindle in the stars. Currently Available for 49 Euros, is in the screenshot a “Kindle with touch screen and special offers (!)” For 59 euros to see sold from October 2 (ie advertising). We are curious.
