More and more Kindle fans are waiting for the new generation of Amazon’s most popular e-reader model – the Paperwhite.
The current model is already two years old, and – having in mind its price level – a replacement combined with upgrade is more than needed.
Kindle Paperwhite 5 – what we know so far
It will most probably be released next year
Amazon is putting more stress on Alexa-powered devices. Introducing the new Kindle, especially the model with a bunch of considerable improvements, is a huge cost.
The demand for the current model is still high. It was not available before Prime Day. Now, some versions will be back on stock just for Black Friday.
It should feature adjustable warm light
The next model should feature a major improvement. The most sought after feature is adjustable warm light.
Warm light is offered only by Kindle Oasis 3, but competitors have it already for a long time.
Amazon will have to add the feature to a middle range model to remain the leading brand in the e-reader industry.
Adjustable warm light is a feature that lets you reduce blue light tones in the evening. Warm light will help reduce eye strain and prevent problems with sleep.
Other things we expect to see
With the growing interest in audiobooks, we could see bigger storage options. 8 GB may be kept but the bigger storage variant may be set at 64 GB.
The full Amazon logo may be replaced by Amazon smile icon, the way it’s used on the 2019 basic Kindle.
The current shape is more than enough to fit the new warm light technology, so we don’t expect to see any essential improvements.
We don’t expect to see the white version. With the warm & orange front light, the white bezel may look ugly.
It would be great to see the white Kindle Paperwhite, but the color may be used only on the back.

Scrolling through endless feeds feels harmless until you look at the clock and it is three in the morning. Apps help teens build friendships, but they pay for it with terrible sleep.
Real digital detox isn’t about running away to a cabin in the mountains without electricity. It’s about small, annoying friction points that actually work in real life. Here are down-to-earth methods you can start today.
Is social media actually breaking young minds in Europe? A new survey shows teens average 4.5 hours of screen time on school days. Parents are critical , but youth call for better platform rules rather than total bans.
My long relationship with the Kindle iOS app is officially over. A recent update brutally messed up the hyphenation in foreign sideloaded books, making them hard to read. Google Play Books saved my sanity.
Cluttercore nostalgia, AI fueled art, dark baroque, Asian harmony concepts, and aerial photography are among the top visual trends of 2025.

Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World

I remember when I first encountered Facebook: It was the spring of 2004; I was a senior in college and began to notice an increasing number of my friends talk about a website called thefacebook.com. The first person to show me an actual Facebook profile was Julie, who was then my girlfriend, and now my wife.
“My memory of it was that it was a novelty,” she told me recently. “It had been sold to us as a virtual version of our printed freshman directory, something we could use to look up the boyfriends or girlfriends of people we knew.”
The key word in this memory is novelty. Facebook didn’t arrive in our world with a promise to radically transform the rhythms of our social and civic lives; it was just one diversion among many. In the spring of 2004, the people I knew who signed up for thefacebook.com were almost certainly spending significantly more time playing Snood (a Tetris-style puzzle game that was inexplicably popular) than they were tweaking their profiles or poking their virtual friends.
