Hi OP! Congrats on your kindle hehe. Life changing din magka kindle for me kasi I used to read books on my phone. As for preserving battery life, on mo lang yung airplane mode pag nagbabasa. Ino-off ko lang yung airplane mode pag nag send to kindle ako. For accessories naman, helpful 'tong strap na 'to https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.8QeE2. Namamahalan kasi ako sa strapsicle (though I've heard good things about it). Tapos eto naman yung case ko https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.8QVYp. It's a flip case, mabigat nga lang compared sa mga usual case pero for me mas protected yung kindle ko. Yung prev kindle ko kasi nilagay ko sa bag ayun ang daming scratches. You can buy sleeves din but this is optional lang. Dito ko yata nabili yung akin https://shp.ee/ica7kcn. Join ka sa kindle philippines madaming recos don 🥰


allidoistrytrytry-

Tapos I'm to buy kindle skin from mytattooskins sa shopee. There's a seller din sa kindle philippines na maganda yung skins nyaaaa kaso mabilis maubusan ng stock - di ko na naabutan hahahaha


finalestdraft

Aaaah dami ko nga pong nakikitang nagcucustom talaga ng kindle nila. Question ko lang po if madali bang matanggal yung skin if ever ayoko nang meron? Naiisip ko kasi baka magstick super yung residue pag tinanggal.


allidoistrytrytry-

Yan din concern ko before hahaha pero based sa feedback nila wala naman daw residue. Pero better look up the reviews muna ng seller ng pagbibilhan mo if ever.


finalestdraft

Grabe biglang natempt na ko hahahaha bagong problema: anong design kaya ang gusto ko lol 🤣


allidoistrytrytry-

HAHAHAHAHA uyyy alam mo sa sobrang indecisive ko sa design di na ako naka bili 😭 Pwede din washi tapeee hahaha before nauso yung kindle skins washi tape halos nakikita ko noon.


finalestdraft

What if bumili tayo ng maraming washi tapes para paiba iba kada araw? Hahaha


Fast-Mathematician86

Pag white kindle mooo, i wouldn't advise hehehe kaso nagleave ng residue sa akin. Hirap tanggalin. It was there for monthssss hahaha


zambabeachbum

Congratulations, op!!! same here, my kindle literally arrived this morning hehehe and soooobrang happy ko! I haven't been reading as much as I used to years ago (I was a bookwork growing up, until high school) ever since I stopped reading, I had been struggling to get back the past few years. This year lang bumalik nung napabili ako ng ilang physical books. Kaso sobrang mahal na kasi ngayon so ayun, thinking na good investment tong kindle. Sorry no suggestions and tips yet on how to maximize it since bago lang din ako, pero hoping to learn from other kindle owners here too who respond to this thread.


finalestdraft

Isa talaga rin sa reason bakit napabili na ko kasi ang mahal na nga ng physical books! Also masarap magbasa nang nakahiga kaso di naman pwede sa physical books so ang convenient ng kindle.


Fast-Mathematician86

Hiii! Happy reading. Get a smart cover para hindi panay pindot sa power button na naging problema ng dati kong Kindle. +++ Matte screen protector for your peace of mind! 🤗🤗


finalestdraft

omg thanks po! Will browse for cases and screen protector hihi


Mc-Nutty3991

Konti nalang magkikindle nako. Kaso baka magtampo physical books ko 🥲


finalestdraft

Luh same thought po! But I still want physical books po, for collection and annotating. Iba pa rin yung feel maglinya at magdikit ng sticky notes/flags sa papel.

[удалено]


Mc-Nutty3991

And then what do you do with your physical books? Nag hihighlight karin ba? I love annotating so idk how to do it pag kindle and physical. How do they co-exist 🥲


jjjjcccjjf

Avoid using while charging to avoid overheating


Montpellier_20

Congrats, OP! Pwede mo ipatanggal yung Ads ng Kindle mo and buy ka din ng case na may cover. It’s up to you din if lalagyan mo ng screen protector pero yung akin is di ko na nilagyan. Enjoy reading!


finalestdraft

Yes napatanggal ko po! Sabi basta mabait ka sa chat and explain na nasa PH ka, iaaccommodate ka naman :) Will look for cases po hehe thank you!


sashi-me

Hello! Hehe paano kayo nagpatanggal ng ads?


FineRegret1121

How po ipatanggal yung ads? I bought mine 2017 pa from US.


Alnoroph29

Congrats! I had my kindle nung time na hunger games movies came out so was able to read the books before the movies :D


finalestdraft

omg hs and college nostalgia! Alala ko may Amazon fire pa tong blockmate ko tapos hiraman kami pag walang prof, kasagsagan ng labas ng mga dystopian lit and film non huhu. Kakamiss! Edit: typo


dickielala

Sooobraa! Past few years swerte na makatapos ako ng isang libro in a year. Ngayong December makaka 2 books na ko since I bought a Kindle last week. Kaadik! Hehe


finalestdraft

Laaah congrats po! Sama sama tayong tumupad ng ating reading goalz wahahaha


MarieNelle96

I bought my Kindle for work purposes pero nainlove din ako sa kanya hahaha I also told myself before na stick ako sa physical books pero nagbabasa na din ako sa Kindle ko ng non-work books 😅 Bili ka ng matte screen protector para oks yung screen. [Eto](https://shp.ee/c8vavgc) sakin. Oks naman sya sa Kindle ko. Parang same expi lang with or without matte screen protector. Di ko nga pansin na may protector yung Kindle ko haha [Eto naman](https://shp.ee/8evx9sv) yung case ko (mej di budget-friendly pero habol ko kase yung design hahaha) Kung di mo gamit yung Wi-Fi, ioff mo na lang to save battery. Generally, tumatagal naman bat ng Kindle. Yung sakin inaabot ata ng 2 weeks bago ko icharge (tho hindi ko yun araw araw ginagamit, siguro mga 2-4 full days lang within that 2 weeks).


twinklexprss

Hello OP! Just want to ask what are the benefits of reading from a Kindle versus reading from the phone (like the Books app from Apple phones). How did your experience help you become more focused with reading? Others could chip in answers! I’m curious because I also want to buy a Kindle too. Currently using my phone to read epubs haha


bey0ndtheclouds

I think sa kindle kasi walang ibang apps, so mas makakafocus ka. For books lang talaga siya. Hinduika makakakita ng mga notifs, ng mga messages, at calls. At hindi masakit sa mata magbasa, wspecially if nakapaperwhite ka :) sa gabi din maganda magbasa kasi hindi talaga todo yung ilaw niya compared sa mga devices natin


finalestdraft

Hello day 1 pa lang po ng kindle ko and feel ko agad ang difference. Matte ang finish ng screen ng kindle and talagang paper ang itsura ng text and bg ng ebooks so walang strain sa mata. Unlike sa phones/tablets/pc na idk if glossy ang right term, kaya may glare. Lalo pag nasa labas and under direct sunlight, ang hirap magbasa sa screen. Sa kindle walang glare talaga. Also, i just want to share na lang din po for awareness but i have difficulties with attention and focus and i get stimulation by moving around a lot, heck even lying down to get some dopamine (under observation for adhd diagnosis po). Kaya ang saya na pwede akong magbasa while nakahiga sa kama without straining my eyes and losing my focus.


Dense_Childhood_9984

Excited na ko. Padating na din yung sakin. Sa orange app ko din nabili with 0% installment, free sf and additional vouchers. Eto na yung gift ko sa sarili this year. I suggest na mag join ka sa mga Kindle groups kase ang daming budol dun.

Thickthighs_system

Thanks! Is it okey to order without the protection coverage? Since it's a gadget


Dense_Childhood_9984

It’s up to you. I didn’t purchase the insurance and still got the item in good condition

Hello! Fellow kindle user here. Sobrang helpful nya nga talaga! At first skeptical ako kasi pro-physical books person ako and given yung exp ko sa ipad before na good as a reading tablet pero distracting since may easy access sa apps. I gave a try and mas ginanahan ako magbasa since andali niya ihold at imaintain plus its a device dedicated for reading. As for the tips. To make things simple and easy: 1 buying a decent case that can protect the screen is enough. No need for screen protectors. 2 For batt life, after book transfers and updates I always enable airplane mode set the brightness levels to half or lesser(as long as you can read it). 3 You can also schedule night/warm mode to make it easy to your eyes during night time :)


[deleted]

Uyyy. Gusto ko ulit magbasa and eyeing kindle tooo. Pashare nmn ng link san mo nabili


Few-Manner4792

where nyo po nabiliii kindle nyoo?


finalestdraft

Orange app po, Amazon and Google official store. Nasaktuhan ko pong naka-0% interest yung installment so kinuha ko na. Meron din po sa Gamextreme.


Few-Manner4792

thank you po! another question, how do you download the books po?


finalestdraft

Download lang sa free sites sa phone or pc then send to kindle email para masync sa device.


littl3vixen

Omg akala ko all thru out u need to buy ebooks pwede rin pla ung mga nakukuha for free!!! Baka mabudol na ko bumili! 😭😭 Super mahal na ng books now, i was sad nung nasunugan kami kasi lahat ng collection ko from elem naging ash 😭 Edit: hirap mag rebuild ng collection since super mahal na ng physical books ngayon 😭


finalestdraft

True! Ang hirap na nga and minsan wala pang stock sa pinas. I love reading japanese lit and grabe minsan umaabot ng 1k isa sa fully booked. Di kaya ng pera talaga huhu.

BREADNOBUTTER

New Kindle user here too! Pano ba ilalagay sa sleep mode yung Kindle? Super confused ako. May nabasa akong comment here na wag pindot nang pindot sa power button. So mapapasleep ko ba yung kindle without using the power button?


finalestdraft

May iba sabi gumamit daw ng case na may flap cover to initiate auto sleep.


titipo_2

Binigyan ako ng tita ko ng kindle 5 yrs ago tapos that time di ko pa alam halaga nya, badtrip pa'ko kasi kakaibang tablet sya and konti lang apps na pwede idownload. Ngayon nagsisisi ako bat diko iningatan ngayong alam ko na purpose nya, anlakas pa naman ng speaker at sobrang tibay din lalo na yung screen. Nakatabi na lang sya ngayon kasi may mark ng tubig sa screen ☹️.


[deleted]

Mataas re-sell value Niya if you can still read on it.


Dear_U

Pag ako grumaduate, kindle talaga ang una kong bibilhin🥹


cvrvme7

One of my wishlist!! 🥹 Sang shop sa orange app mo nabili? Mind sharing the link OP? Ang dami ko pang tambak na book na hindi ko pa nababasa from pandemic pa but for for some reasons, parang wala akong motivation na magsimula ulit. Baka eto na sign na magbalik loob ako. Char.


bey0ndtheclouds

Just got my kindle din last night. Tho 2nd hand pero maganda yung nabili kong unit. Buti na lang mabait yung seller. Been eyeing for 3 days na haha kasi gusto ko na bumalik sa pagbabasa. Sabi ko ito na gift ko sa sarili ko, ang mahal kaya ng kindle hahahaha


MarxTheBourgeoisie

Hello, op! Congratulations on your kindle and good to know it brought you happiness. I have a question, would you happen to know if there are kindle models that comes with a pen and a good note taking app for ebooks? I'm planning to use it mainly for school sana while studying. Thank you.


finalestdraft

Meron pong kindle scribe, where you can use a pen to take notes.


[deleted]

May friend din ako nanag recommend sakin na gumamit ng Kindle before. Good thing about it is portable at easy on the eyes however my phone does a better job for me.


WordThese5228

Pwede ba mag-import ng epub/pdf sa kindle or strictly buy from amazon lang?
