Amazon on April 30 launched the Kindle Paperwhite in India, featuring the biggest screen yet for the lineup. The refreshed model brings a 7-inch glare-free e-ink display flanked by thin bezels, and a thinner, lighter design. It’s also the first Paperwhite to get an upgraded dual-core processor, which Amazon claims makes page turns 25 per cent faster and improves overall responsiveness.

Kindle Paperwhite (2025): What is new
The highlight of the new Paperwhite is its 7-inch glare-free E Ink display, which now features oxide thin-film transistors for improved contrast.

Readers can also adjust the display’s warm light and enable dark mode for low-light environments.
