Now that there’s a new Nook on the market people are going to want to know how it compares to Kindles. So for this review I’m going to outline how the Nook Glowlight Plus compares to the Kindle Paperwhite 3. I’ll briefly discuss how the Nook compares to the Kindle Voyage as well. First off, […]

Kindle Paperwhite 3 Blazes Past Kindle Voyage
Amazon released the new updated Kindle Paperwhite 3 this past July (technically the last day of June), and it already has more reviews than the Kindle Voyage. Amazon never releases Kindle sales figures but the number of overall reviews is a pretty good indicator of how popular a product is, especially when comparing the same […]
3-Day Kindle Sale: $99 Paperwhite 3, $59 Kindle, $79 Kids Kindle
Amazon is running a 3-Day sale on their line of Kindle ebook readers, all except the Kindle Voyage, which Amazon never puts on sale for some reason despite the fact that it’s majorly overpriced (you can get two Paperwhite 3’s for the same price as one Voyage—those must some really expensive page turn sensors). The […]
Prediction: Kindle Paperwhite with 6.8″ Screen for $159
Amazon will start shipping their new Fire tablets early next week, including the ultra cheap $49 Fire. But what about new Kindles?

It’s the same story with the new Kindle Paperwhite 3, and the older Paperwhites all have the newer software as well. It all started with the release of software version 5.6. To […]
Kindle Dictionary Guide: How to Add, Change, and Create Custom Kindle Dictionaries
Most people are misinformed on the subject of how dictionaries work on Kindle ebook readers, so I wanted to put together this guide explaining how to change, add, and create custom dictionaries for Kindle devices. Last week someone left a comment complaining about how Kindles sucked compared to Kobos because Kindles don’t allow you to […]
Kindle Paperwhite 3 PDF Review (+Video)
Most people use Kindle ereaders to read ebooks from Amazon, but Kindles also support other formats, including PDF. PDF files come in a wide variety of sizes and types, just about every one you get lays out differently. This often makes reading PDFs on smaller 6-inch screens problematic—a device like the Onyx Boox M96 with […]
