Should I buy Kindle Paperwhite in 2020?

1. The new model will be released in 2021 the latest.
2. If you can’t wait, buy the current model but for a price no higher than $80.
3. If you need warm light, wait for the new model or buy Kindle Oasis.

Kindle Paperwhite is the most popular Amazon e-reader, based on a number of left reviews and ratings.

Kindle Paperwhite 4 – things to know

  • The e-reader was launched in November 2018, so it’s over two years old.
  • The waterproof design can withstand immersion in 2 meters of fresh water for up to 60 minutes.
  • The device features slim design with edge-to-edge glass front.
  • There are two storage options – 8 or 32 GB. If you plan to listen to audiobooks, pick up the bigger one.
  • You can choose from several fashionable colors, matching the new line of Amazon Fire tablets: Plum, Sage, Twilight Blue, and Black.

Kindle Paperwhite 5 should be released next year

  • Usually, no more than two years pass to see the new generation Kindle model.
  • Rumors say the new model may be released this autumn, but having in mind Amazon’s decreasing interest in the Kindle, the launch will most probably happen somewhere next year.
  • The new model is said to have warm light. The feature changes blue light to a warmer tone to reduce eye strain and prevent sleep problems.
  • Warm light and bigger storage options may affect the price of the 5th-generation Kindle Paperwhite. We assume it will cost $139.99 or even $149.99.

Buy Paperwhite 4 – but for a price no higher than $80

  • There is no reason to buy a two-year-old device for a regular price.
  • If you have to replace your current Kindle model with a new one, hunt for deals.
  • During Prime Day 2020, the price of Kindle Paperwhite 4 was reduced to $79.99 for the entry-level version.
  • We expect the $50 off Kindle Paperwhite deal on Black Friday & Cyber Monday 2020.
  • To save $30 more, make sure to get the version with a free 3-month Kindle Unlimited subscription.

If you need warm light, you have two options

  1. You can wait for the 5th-generation Kindle Paperwhite. No launch date was released yet.
  2. You can buy Kindle Oasis – the top-shelf model that sports warm light. Make sure to grab the Black Friday deal. Kindle Oasis 3 may cost even $75 less. The Prime Day 2020 price was set at $174.99.

Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear

by ELIZABETH GILBERT

Once upon a time, there was a man named Jack Gilbert, who was not related to me – unfortunately for me. 

Jack Gilbert was a great poet, but if you’ve never heard of him, don’t worry about it. It’s not your fault. He never much cared about being known. But I knew about him, and I loved him dearly from a respectful distance, so let me tell you about him.

Jack Gilbert was born in Pittsburgh in 1925 and grew up in the midst of that city’s smoke, noise, and industry. He worked in factories and steel mills as a young man, but was called from an early age to write poetry. He answered the call without hesitation. He became a poet the way other men become monks: as a devotional practice, as an act of love, and as a lifelong commitment to the search for grace and transcendence. I think this is probably a very good way to become a poet. Or to become anything, really, that calls to your heart and brings you to life.
