What is a kindle?
The Kindle was created by Amazon and is an electronic device created specifically and solely for the purpose of digital reading of the famous e-books. It is a way to read without being distracted by social media and other applications.
It is portable and allows its user to have an entire gigantic library in a small device. The possibilities range from books to comics, newspapers, documents and other formats that you like.
But the most surprising part is certainly its technology, the Kindle screen has electronic ink, called e-ink, which simulates the appearance of a printed page, giving an impression more similar to a paper book.
In addition, each Kindle device is extremely lightweight and super compact, you won't even notice that you're carrying it. Another very positive point about the device is its battery that can last for days and even weeks.
