The best Kindles in the UK for every bookworm and budget – tested

The article tests Amazon’s UK Kindle range and recommends models for different needs, including general reading, children, colour screens and note-taking. It says e-readers can make large libraries easier to carry and avoid many distractions of phones and tablets.

The reviewer used the devices for several weeks, and tested the Paperwhite and Colorsoft over about six months. New Kindles are due on 11 November, with lighter and thinner Paperwhite and Colorsoft models, an aluminium-backed Signature Edition and a redesigned basic Kindle; the current models may be discounted.
