I got curious about Amazon Kindles and watched some reviews, and I don't understand why people buy them

For 280 bucks you can get a kindle... with color... wow. That's the first kindle with color that they've created and it was launched in 2024. For this price you can get a decent laptop... why would you want a kindle? Please let me know if you have one, and why.

No one buys them honey. Everyone went back to books.

@bluebird a book isn't a very specific brand... it can't be compared

@MartinTheFirst it can. Because kindle was created as a an alternative to reading a paper book. You use a kindle to read books.

@bluebird still no... it'd be better to compare how many people read paper books vs how many read them digitally
