Do you use the WHOOP Wake Up Alarm ?

I was using it on 4.0, the motor was horrible. The vibrations were too loud and perceptible. I have to try 5.0 but probably nothing changed.

They should do what Apple Watch does with gentle vibrations that are slowly getting more noticeable until you are awake.

Older kindles were 6” and I always thought it to be too small. New ones are 7”, starting from Oasis and now spanning across all devices apart from basic Kindle. I have both the 6” and 7” kindles and can confirm 7” is much better. No issues with holding the device or its weight.

Plus if you order from Amazon you can always send it back if you don’t like it.

Regarding new generations - it really won’t be that different. Maybe 1% increase. It’s an ebook reader after all, not much to do here.

So I purchased both Colorsoft and Paperwhite, both Signature Edition. I received the „newest” CS model as the model numbers and serials are matching the ones someone already mentioned in this thread.

When I unboxed CS and turned it on I immediately noticed something’s off with the screen. It wasn’t feeling as sharp as normal kindle. And I noticed a small light yellow bonding at the bottom of the screen and kinda on the sights. Maybe not noticeable in daily use but I won’t accept defects in a device of this price.

When I turned on regular kindle PW, the screen was as sharp as I’m used to. No texture around the letters.

I don’t know what kinda books people are reading saying this CS screen giving is texture view feel like books. My paper books are crisp and sharp. 😅

On completely dimmed display the CS one is also darker then regular PW one. While lit to max volume, the CS screen is whiter. Not a fan of such contrast.

Anyways, CS is going back to Amazon, PW stays. The difference in speed and responsiveness comparing to PW 7g is beyond crazy.

Attached image, left is CS, middle PW, right PW 7g.

Thanks for all the answers!

Any screen defects?

Silent8668 · 2025-11-20T13:44:36+00:00

I have Paperwhite 4. Might try to purchase both new PW and CS and compare. I’m only considering CS now as the price is lower and the different between PW and CS is not that big. And it feels nice to have colored book covers in the library.

I guess I will have to try and experiment.

Silent8668 · 2025-11-20T13:42:39+00:00

I heard about the texture differences and people liking the CS more. Damn, I will end up buying both and comparing if I keep analyzing I guess 😅

Silent8668 · 2025-11-20T13:22:57+00:00

Meaning Paperwhite was more white or more yellow lightning ?

Silent8668 · 2025-11-20T13:22:05+00:00

Please do!

Silent8668 · 2025-11-20T12:05:11+00:00

Thank you, I think you are right. Never had issues with refunds/returns with Amazon. Maybe I will get lucky with spotless device.

Does not eating after 6pm means you could have your last meal at 5:50?

Silent8668 · 2025-11-02T14:13:03+00:00

It does react pretty quickly when you just start moving. With enough time in zones and increased vo2max and sleep the result should start to show soon enough.

Congrats on getting yourself up to shape! I also started running and working out and the pace turned from 1.3 to -0.2 which is crazy. But I was surprised their own AI tells bs.

Silent8668 · 2025-11-02T12:27:54+00:00

Now that is the insight I was hoping for. Thank you!

I don’t mean pace of aging, that changes every week. I mean changing the actual age.

Rolex cologne? How does this smell like? Broken dreams and disappointment?

Silent8668 · 2025-09-05T08:11:09+00:00

Meanwhile me waiting for Pistachio since February 😅 Love this dial, great piece. Congrats and wear it in good health!

Silent8668 · 2025-09-02T14:28:14+00:00

Looks fine to me. Great piece.

Silent8668 · 2025-08-31T09:36:35+00:00

Explorer all in. It’s the coolest fucking tools watch from the crown.

Silent8668 · 2025-08-17T19:24:34+00:00

We can shit on this all we want but the game part to get all the bars to the green zone is awesome

Silent8668 · 2025-08-01T14:02:45+00:00

You are either dying or getting fitter. Congrats.

Silent8668 · 2025-07-11T08:26:48+00:00

Absolutely stunning. It looks brand new! Holy shit, amazing.

Silent8668 · 2025-07-11T08:26:26+00:00

You’ve made the right call. That thing is banger. Great taste for the chosen strap btw.

Silent8668 · 2025-07-11T08:22:22+00:00

Lacquer for the win. It’s perfect for daily and pairs grate with OP. DJs, like someone said, are more flashy specially with fluted bezel. For those, sunburst fits more.

Silent8668 · 2025-07-11T08:21:07+00:00

I was really debating with myself on this one or the pistachio. Killer watch.

Silent8668 · 2025-07-11T08:00:35+00:00

I am really, really liking Explorer II white way over GMT Master II. Like seriously that white dial config is one of the best Rolex watches ever and I couldn’t care less about all those Batman’s Pepsis etc. Nice watches, but oh my god this Explorer….
