> 24 hourI recently upgraded my old Kindle Paperwhite 7th generation with brand new Kindle Paperwhite Signature edition 11 generation (2021). I am very happy with the upgrade except one minor and one major drawbacks: The books content syncs with the cloud only after manually sending the content from the cloud to the device, it wouldnt sync automatically, as one would expect. But this is not a major problem. The severe problem was that the collections would not show on the device, only on the cloud. They do exist in the background, though; when you try to add a book to a collection - the device shows you the list of existing collections with the current books collection checked. I could not sort the content by collection, this feature was grayed-out, although they existed in the background (you could create a new collection, though). At the same time the collections did show on my old Kindle, they even showed when I viewed my new device-specific content on the cloud, but not on the device itself. Untegistering and Re-registering the device did not help. Resetting the device did not help. Creating collections with the old names on the device was impossible, since I got the error message that the collections by these names already exist. I chatted at length with Amazon support, going up the chain of command, and they told me to do what I already did (above), I sent them a few screenshots by request, and they could not solve the problem. Finally I was told that my problem was logged as feedback for the developers, and that I was more or less on my own. I want to share with the readers what I did, which seems to have solved the problem: 1. Reset the old Kindle to factory defaults, so it does not interfere with the the process. 2. Rename all the existing collections IN THE CLOUD (suffice is to add a digit 1 to the name) 3. Create ON THE DEVICE new collections with the original names (creating them in the cloud does not help). 4. Add ON THE DEVICE the respective contents to each newly created collections with the old names. Use the content of the renamed collections inthe CLOUD as a reference to adding content to collections ON THE DEVICE. Stages 3 and 4 are immediately reflected in the cloud. 5. Delete FROM THE CLOUD all the old renamed collections whose contents you used as a reference. 6. If you re-register your old Kindle, the exact same problem appears there - collections will not show (although they exist in the background), so keep it as a spare if you wish, or return to Amazon. The process of creating new collections with old named is tedious. I am rather disappointed Amazon couldnt solve the problem, but after half a day well spent - my new Kindle is in working order.

> 24 hourExcellent screen, convenient library, smooth scrolling. Very inconvenient onof button. The button is located at the bottom of the Reader and often accidentally pressed and the device turns off. Its annoying. This is the only inconvenience. Great device and worth the money

> 24 hourI love the Kindle and it’s dramatically better than my old one, which broke. However, the screen is slightly too wide to be comfortable for someone with average female-sized hands in comparison. I miss being able to hold my Kindle comfortably one-handed in bed. I would love if they had the same specs but offered the product in two different sizes depending on preference, as the slim bezels are perfect and I love the yellow back-light for reading at night.

> 24 hourI waited 8 months from I ordered this Kindle and until I received it. Was it worth waiting for? Yes, and no. Im disappointed by how often it freezes while Im reading. This Kindle has a touch-screen and to read the next page, I click the right side of the screen. Sometimes, I missed something on the previous page and want to go back. No reaction from the left side of the screen. So I have to turn it off and start it again. Sometimes, it happens to the right side, too. I click, nothing happen. I still see the same screen. Once again, I need to turn it off and start it again. This happens every time Im reading. I normally read for at least 15 minutes at a time, often longer. During the longer reading sessions, it can freeze more than once. Sofware or hardware problem? I dont know. But Im not happy about this problem. Otherwise, it would have been a good tool. Im surprised by how light it is. Its so easy to hold in one hand while reading. And I can sit outside on the balcony and read in full sunlight. No problem at all reading the words. I dont need to strain my eyes or anything. In the evening when I read in bed, its equally easy to read, now with backlights on the text. The battery life is excellent. The tablet I used before ran out of battery all the time. This Kindle... I think I recharge it every two or three weeks. Overall, I dont regret buying this Kindle. I just wish it wouldnt freeze all the time.
