I got the first Paperwhite as a gift. Still using it. Still awesome.

Great product. I thoroughly enjoyed mine until it lost a pixel. Given how focused I need to be while reading, it was just too distracting, drawing my eye away from the text. I also changed jobs and living situations about the same time. These days, the lady and I listen to audiobooks together. Still, that Paperwhite is the best digital reader I've ever used.

I got my first one as a gift too. I am now on my 3rd one and haven't paid for any, since I just complained when the hardware got bad and they just replaced it, even though I hadn't bought it haha

I only replaced mine because I wanted a Kobo with physical buttons. Device was still working fine.
