We are only a great rotation of the event of enormous Amazon devices, where we expect it to bring updates on everything, Smart Echo speakers with sheets of sheets and tablets, Kindles, etc. Of all Amazon’s gadgets, the only one I use practically every day is my Kindle paper masseur.
This is my companion to sleep, the last gadget that I touch before noding my head mid-paragraph and, apart from my partner, the only thing I spend hours during the holidays. In other words, I have been using a Kindle Amazon for more than a decade and I have learned intimately. This is why I have qualified myself to highlight some aspects that Amazon could adapt in this last planned upgrade of one of the best lists of lists.
Move the power button
Let’s start with my biggest bane black Kindle Pet: placement of the power / sleep button.
I should preface this by saying that I especially like the minimalist design of the Kindle. Each version of the Basic Kindle in the Paperwhite Signature edition is thin and light. The screens, generally 300ppi, are clear, shiny and clear. You can buy a Kindle Colorsoft model, which adds a range of colors to support readings like graphic novels, but monochrome models are always my preference, especially since I mainly use these border for verbose novels.
I like tactile screens and integrated lights that cascize the brightness on the surface, and I am never happier than when I am on the beach, where sunlight is the only lighting I need, or in bed reading for minutes or hours of pleasure.
During a recent cross-country flight without wifi, my Jade Kindle Paperwhite was my only source of distraction. I rested the Kindle on my knees and read until the screen flashes unexpectedly. I hadn’t lacked battery, I just looked too hard on the tablet and inadvertently pressed the power button on my knees.
This happens more often than you think, and there is a simple solution: to move the power button to the back of the device or, alternately, on one side. I hope that the new Kindles we all expect this week on Amazon present this change.
Add a crutch
When I read at night, I make a pretty complicated battery of the blankets on my chest to try to support my Kindle Amazon. This usually does not work, and at one point, the Kindle switch forward on my face or back on my stomach. I do not want to keep it awkwardly all the time I read, and instead, I prefer that my hand was resting next to the reader so that I can reach out to press the screen with my index.
Yes, I’m a little lazy.
Do you know what would instantly solve this problem? An integrated crutch; It should simply get out of the back and be wide enough to keep the Kindle stable. I understand that a case could solve this problem, but I do not keep my Kindle in one case because I do not like the additional weight, and the Kindle is quite hard (even waterproof) to survive without one.
I bet that everyone who loves their Kindle would appreciate it a little more with a simple kick made of the same material as the chassis.
Give me the control of touch sensitivity
Another peeve company that I have is when I accidentally put the text on the page or turn a page apparently because I breathed there. Obviously, it is an exaggeration, but I am not alone in complaining that the Kindle screen can be too sensitive and that there is no way to adjust this sensitivity (there are reddit wires devoted to the problem).
It is therefore my simple request: a small software update which allows me to adjust the tactile sensitivity. Instead, I would like Amazon to add a rocking switch so that I can deactivate the highlighting. You know how many times I have highlighted in the hundreds of Kindle books that I have read? Next to Never.
Radiography all the time
Sometimes I read a book, and a character is mentioned that I don’t remember. Amazon’s x -ray offers quick access to information on all players in the book.
I found, however, that if a character is not mentioned by his full name, or if the book introduces another way of mentioning them, the radiography may not be useful. Sometimes I start to find the search for the first mention. I think that if Amazon made a slight overhaul and offered the possibility of making omnipresent X -rays, this could help with more complicated volumes and filled with characters.
Basically, the lower district of the page would be devoted to radiography, and the characters would be added as they appear. The list would be paralyzed and would always put the characters who are currently on the page at the top. If you press a character, he instantly shows you his first mention in the book.
Add Alexa +
This feature could work smoothly with another feature that I ask: the synopsis Alexa + AI.
Now that Alexa + has obtained its great upgrade from AI, it is high time for Kindle integration. Maybe Amazon adds an Alexa +button. You press it and a synopsis in the context appears. This allows you to know who the characters are currently at stake, which they have done and informs you in any subtext and relevant events which are relevant at this time in history. This could even go further and explain the references inside and outside the book.
Perhaps it also acts as an integrated virtual reading club, to discuss with you actions and themes until this moment. It can be text and / or audio.
Such integration could mark the end of confusion for the most complex stories. There could be a question of processing power and local models. I would prefer that the functionality works locally, but would understand if it was a plane mode functionality only.
You have it. I do not ask the world, and I will certainly not be crushed if all these Kindle features do not manage. I am sure, however, that at least some of them can or will. When it happens, I will gladly pass my next beloved mindle ereder.
