But the new version sets the bar even higher by promising up to 10 weeks of battery life. The Paperwhite 10th Gen offered up to six weeks of endurance. Kindle e-readers are known for their marathon battery life, often going on for weeks (not days) on a single charge. However, if you don’t want to shell out $50 extra for this perk, it’s possible to add wireless charging to the standard Kindle Paperwhite, as we demonstrate in this article. If you hate cables altogether, you can pick up the Paperwhite Signature Edition, which comes with wireless charging support. That said, you won’t find a charging brick inside the box, but any of your existing charging adapters should work just fine. Amazon bundles a USB-A to USB-C cable inside the box, but pretty much any USB-C cable at your disposal will do. ![]() Not that the Kindle e-readers need frequent charging, but it indeed feels good not having to carry an extra cable when traveling. The USB-C port means you can now juice up the Paperwhite with the same cable you charge your phone and laptop with. So naturally, when Amazon came out with the new USB-C equipped Paperwhite 11th Gen, I didn’t need much convincing to make the jump. It was the only device in my gadget arsenal to have microUSB. One thing that I absolutely hated about my old Paperwhite was its micro USB port. Additionally, you can customize the amount of warmth added to the screen with a dedicated warmth slider. The previous Paperwhite did offer a stop gate solution in the form of Dark Mode, but it couldn’t help you avoid blue light exposure. The Warm Light feature is accessible from the drop-down menu at the top, with an option to have it automatically enabled at your preferred time. Warm Light has definitely made my late-night reading sessions more enjoyable and easier on the eyes. But just like your smartphone and laptop, you can turn the screen color temperature of your Paperwhite to the warmer end of the color spectrum to cut down on harsh blue light. Research shows exposure to blue light at night can disrupt our natural sleep and wake cycle, making it harder to fall asleep. The feature, which first debuted on the Kindle Oasis, uses a series of amber lights to cast a warm yellow tint over the display for a more comfortable reading experience. If you’re someone who mostly reads at bedtime, you’re going to love the new Warm Light on the Paperwhite 11th Gen. ![]() ![]() Great for Bedtime Reading Kishan Vyas / How-To Geek
