Flush, pixel-dense screen is the best we've seen on any e-reader, PagePress buttons are mostly satisfying, Thin and light
Expensive for a standalone e-reader, Base price includes ads
With an impressive high-resolution display and a vast content catalog to match, the Kindle Voyage is easily the best e-reader Amazon has ever crafted. Still, its high price tag means it just doesn't make sense for the average reader....

Its tricky to say whether something like the Voyage is worth it; so much depends on your personal ratio of "financial means" to "love of reading books on E-Ink displays with roof-shattering DPI."AdvertisementAdvertisementIf you have enough money that you...

Nice, even front light that you can use to read anywhere, Pleasant to hold in or out of its case, Solid battery life, Performance and storage capacity are as good as they need to be, Matte display repels glare and fingerprints and renders sharp, readable
Accessing any books not in Amazon's store is difficult-to-impossible, depending on what formats you're using, Text entry and highlighting are slow and prone to errors
As much as I like the Kindle Voyage, I can't in good conscience recommend it when the perfectly capable Paperwhite is $80 less. They're both easy to hold and include a built-in backlight. Amazon needs to deliver a lot more than a slightly slicker e-reader...

Brighter and sharper screen
Expensive, $299
There's no question that Kindle's Voyage offers a great reading experience, but it's also the most expensive Kindle yet. It's a great device if your budget will stretch, but weigh it up against the Kindle Paperwhite and iPad mini before you take the plung...
Abstract: Chart: Reading is a beautiful and relaxing pastime, but it's not exactly portable, especially if you're a commuter. If you don't like lugging dozens of paperbacks around, why not consider an e-reader? Here are the five best e-readers available in Australi...

Expensive, Not worth it over a Paperwhite, Software is ugly
When I started reviewing the new, top-of-the-line Kindle Voyage, it made sense. The 300dpi display far outpaced that of the sub-100dpi display of the original Kindle, and made a measurable difference against the 212dpi screen of the then-current Paperwhit...
