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.

I would get a kindle. But i don't have one nor am I planning on buying with this current lifestyle.
The reasons are, it's intentional, very intentional and doesn't ring, doesn't include apps, doesn't blip, blink, blop, gong, you get what I mean?!
It's plain and simple and you hold it with a single intention.
Whereas, I'm opening an ebook on my phone, ten minutes later I'm looking for something on Google, 20min later something else and so on and so forth.
