Explanation:
Kindle vs Paper Books
I’ve been using a Kindle for about 6 years. And have been reading paper books for longer than that! I have two Kindles, one is the discontinued Kindle Touch, and the other is the newer Kindle Paperwhite. Here are my thoughts on the Kindle and how eBooks compare to Print Books.
The Kindle Reading Experience
For much of the reading experience I prefer the Kindle. It’s compact, lightweight, and easy to carry around. With a kindle I don’t have to awkwardly hold a book open while my other hand is trying to not spill my cup of coffee. Also when it starts to dim outside and I don’t quite have enough light I can turn on the backlight instead of the house lights.
Kindle Paperwhite vs Book
Backlight
So, e-ink displays don’t have as good of a contrast as real paper. The reason Amazon calls their latest Kindle the “Paperwhite” is it has a backlight that can sort of match the brightness of paper by supplementing the light from your environment–the idea is you turn the backlight on just enough so that it still looks like it’s reflecting light like a book, but there’s just enough extra light to make it as readable as paper. This does work, however I think the LED color Amazon chose is a failure. The pure white LED backlight is too much in the blue spectrum and that’s very obvious when I’m reading under incandescent lights. It’s okay in natural light but under incandescent lighting it should be warmer to match the surrounding atmosphere. This could affect health if reading right before going to bed. I hope Amazon fixes this in the next version…maybe it should have RGB bulbs and a sensor to match the ambient light.
In very bright light paper wins out, but if the ambient light is dim as it often is in the Fall in Idaho the Kindle let’s me read a little longer before turning on the house lights. This probably saves me 1 or 2 cents a year.
hope it will help you❤❤
