Verdict

The 2022 Amazon Kindle (11th Generation) is a compact, entry-level e-reader featuring a 6-inch anti-glare E Ink display with a significantly improved 300 PPI resolution for crisp, paper-like text. Weighing just 158g and measuring 157.8 x 108.6 x 8.0 mm, it is the lightest and most portable Kindle in the lineup, now updated with 16GB of storage and a modern USB-C charging port. Main pros include its highly portable design, weeks of battery life (up to six weeks), and an integrated four-LED front light with a new Dark Mode for comfortable nighttime reading. However, it lacks waterproofing, an adjustable warm light for eye comfort, and automatic brightness sensors found in more premium models.
