They are becoming true scammers. Now you can not evenr ead your books without going to amazon cloud reader. I spent a lot of money buying books for kindle but I have bought my last one, never again. Trying to navigate inside your books in nearly impossible. It was good a few years ago, now you have to have an internet connection and even with a wifi connection they areso annoying.

I’ve been using Kindle for years, but the experience has become increasingly frustrating, especially for users outside the US or UK. The biggest issue is how difficult it is to actually buy books. Many titles simply show as “not available in your country,” even though they exist and are being sold elsewhere. This makes no sense in 2026, when most digital services are global. It feels like the Kindle platform is still stuck in outdated regional licensing systems that punish international users. Even when trying to work around this by changing the account region, the process is inconsistent and often blocked by payment restrictions. As a result, I often end up unable to purchase books I’m genuinely willing to pay for, which is extremely frustrating. What makes this worse is that alternative platforms like Google Play Books or Apple Books sometimes have the same titles available without these restrictions. This makes Kindle feel unnecessarily limited despite being such a dominant platform. Kindle devices themselves are great, but the ecosystem is too closed and restrictive. If Amazon wants to remain competitive globally, it really needs to address these regional availability issues and make purchasing simpler and more transparent. At the moment, it feels like Kindle is one of the hardest places to actually buy books if you don’t live in the “right” country — and that shouldn’t be the case for a digital product.

I started a free trial of Kindle Unlimited, and my expectation, especially given the name, was that if a Kindle version exists then it is available on Kindle Unlimited. After all, if I just wanted a selection of books then that is available free under Prime Reading, so Kindle Unlimited must offer more, surely? The first books I tried, were unavailable unless I bought them, but to be fair they were non-fiction, so I thought, maybe it just applies to fiction. But then I found that book after book that I wanted to read was unavailable, in all I reckon that 90% of the non-fiction books I tried are not available in Kindle Unlimited. My conclusion is that Kindle Unlimited is like Prime Video which can claim to have thousands of films but it is pointless going in with the idea to watch a specific film you won’t find it, instead you have to browse through the films they have until you find one that you want to watch. Kindle Unlimited is the same but for books. I’m sure that approach does work for many, but for not for me. I won’t be paying nearly £10 per month to read books that someone else has selected and which I don’t really want to read.

Nous avons pris une liseuse il y a 8 mois à notre ado de 14 ans et l'abonnement. Beaucoup de livres qui l'intéressent sont hors abonnement et quand on a la chance d'en trouver oeuver dans l'abonnement il nous ai dit que le livre ne peut être lu sur sa tablette et qu'elle doit le lire sur un téléphone... La tablette n'a que 8 mois, c'est une blague ! C'est donc très décevant, le catalogue est riche, la tablette est chouette mais l'abonnement ne couvre pas assez de titres ! Vraiment dommage

App povera di proposte migliorative. La voce che legge dopo un po' risulta insopportabile. Non vengono rispettate le basilari regole della grammatica italiana. Punti, spazi, rispetto del testo. Viene letto tutto di un fiato. Non si può cambiare la voce di chi legge. Povera povera

I had a huge expectation however it’s really working slow. Since it has one purpose, I think it should work faster. Also my screen got cracked inside, but I can’t even modify the screen to avoid this harmed area. I can’t use it and it was pretty expensive. Good for reading articles etc. Not sure about novels or other books though.

Ho comprato Kindle paperwhite nel 2021 per sostituire il vecchio rotto, che era ancora con i tasti laterali per il giro pagina. Purtroppo sono delusa e leggo di meno perchè: 1- non si caricacano i testi in russo (solo pdf), 2- non indica la posizione, ovvero quantità totale e parziale delle pagine, 3- sfogliando indietro salta due o quattro pagine, 4- non si spegne completamente (manca proprio la funzione di spegnimento) ma si mette in standby "spegni lo schermo", e la batteria si scarica anche senza utilizzo attivo. Guardate che questo non succedeva con il Kindl basico di primi passi, cioè quello con i tasti e lo schermo normale. Adesso pure questo touchscreen è fastidioso: se per sbaglio lo tocchi ti cambia la pagina. Beh... Lo uso, ma con antipatia.

Buongiorno, ho acquistato 1 anno fa un Kindle. Non riuscivo più a caricarlo e presso mediaworld mi hanno detto che me lo avrebbero sostituito. Al ritiro però mi hanno detto che avrei dovuto pagare la differenza di circa 40 euro. Non è per la cifra, ma non è responsabile il cliente se il prodotto in garanzia non può essere riparato, e dovrò anche ricomprare cover. Inoltre il tutto è davvero poco sostenibile.
