Amazon has opted for the Pearl ePaper technology, which is still widespread, but somewhat less contrast than the newer e-ink Carta technology that is used in the second generation of Kindle Paperwhite. Nevertheless pages on the e-ink display can read very well. Reflections do not occur, the viewing angles are large and stable and even direct sunlight obscures the reading pleasure – unlike even a colorful tablet display -. Not
The case of the 2014er Kindle measures 169 x 119 x 10.2 millimeters and so is each a few millimeters larger than its predecessor.
