The disagreeable mannequin of the Amazon Kindle (2022) has been out of stock on the accumulate retail extensive’s looking out websites in somewhat rather a lot of territories for some time now and there’s doubtlessly an ultimate reason. It looks as even though Amazon is able to launch a peculiar Kindle ereader soon.
A Spanish retailer accidentally listed a peculiar 2024 version of the entry-level Kindle on its situation (as seen by Loyal e-Reader), with a launch date listed for September 30. Whereas the itemizing has since been taken down, it used to be up prolonged ample for among the upgrades to be published.
If this itemizing is steady, the upcoming 2024 Kindle – that might perchance perchance perchance be the 12th technology – might perchance perchance perchance contain a more eco-friendly compose than any of the Kindles sooner than it. The ereader is rumored to be made with 75% recycled plastic and 90% recycled magnesium. Amazon is also it looks altering its packaging for the unusual ereader, making it 98% wooden fiber sourced from either recycled gives or responsibly managed forests.
And, if the leaked image is anything else to head by, it be also going to attain in a exquisite match green colorway.
The itemizing has also published somewhat somewhat about the tool’s specs, starting with a 300ppi camouflage – which is normal for grayscale ereaders at the present time – with 25% more brightness than the present 11th-technology mannequin.
Be pleased the 2022 Kindle, the 12th-gen ereader will increase darkish mode and, in step with the leak, can even supply faster page turns, but it absolutely’s unclear whether the latter will seemingly be due to a greater processor or if Amazon has adopted the newest E Ink Carta 1300 camouflage technology. This unusual existing debuted in the 2024 Kobo Clara BW, making it even handed one of many handiest ereaders by process of legibility and efficiency.
It will also attain with 16GB of onboard storage, will supply a battery lifestyles of up to 8 weeks, which is more healthy than the approximate 4 weeks per fee we obtained in our Amazon Kindle (2022) overview. Per the scale leaked, it be going to be the particular identical size and thickness as the present mannequin at 157.8 x 108.6 x 8 mm.
Amazon Kindle 2024: what I’d surely esteem to spy
The one predominant increase I’d esteem to spy on the unusual 2024 Kindle is utilizing the E Ink Carta 1300 existing. This camouflage tech will increase page responsiveness by 25% and provides more inequity – I was so impressed with it on the Kobo Clara BW that I didn’t care the Kindle competitor didn’t rep smartly battery lifestyles over its Clara 2E predecessor.
Better but, I’d esteem to spy Amazon take the rivals to Kobo and launch a shade ereader to rival the Kobo Clara Coloration. Kobo now has two shade ereaders in comparison with none from Amazon.
Adjustable heat light might perchance also be an unparalleled addition to the newest version of the Kindle. Kobo’s disagreeable Clara BW gives it already, but then it also charges more than the entry-level Kindle.
I’d also esteem to spy the disagreeable Kindle rep waterproofing – the present mannequin misses out the IPX8 ranking the Kindle Paperwhite (2021) has, which also puts it in the attend of the general present Kobo ereaders.
And lastly, I surely would esteem with a opinion to sideload EPUB layout ebooks without needing to train the Send To Kindle app.
