As a first-time e-paper user, I am not sure if all the momentary pixelation (像素) is normal, the size is ideal for my new teenager. There are hardly any allowances and the kid seems enjoying the experience. The parental controls are, mildly put, inadequate. I would anticipate being able to define lock-down timings and limit usage duration for device targeted at kids.

This is such a lifesaver! My son reads books constantly. We were doing our best to buy books and use the library, but it was hitting our wallets hard. With the Kindle Free Time included with this Kindle kids edition, he has access to thousands of books. I get to set the age appropriate limits on the book access. As we live on a tight budget, it's great to have a one-year free subscription to Free Time.

Just received this device today and I'm ready to throw it out the window. Navigation is horrible and even customer service admitted that they don't know how to help. It's a nightmare trying to get your free subscription set up as they just keep redirecting you to set up a 30-day trial and be charged after. I will be cancelling everything and sending this back as soon as possible.

This is a reader's kingdle. We want our children to read-not play video games all day. From the moment we received this device as a gift, our kids had immediate access to 55 books that we had purchased through our Amazon account. Now they can carry around a whole library of books. Not to mention all of the free out of copyright material that is available.
