GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Charging separately for tactile page-turn controls suggests Amazon sees hardware buttons as a premium add-on rather than a standard feature, even though older Kindle models once included them by default. The move highlights how limited meaningful innovation has become in e-reader design, with accessories rather than core technology driving new purchases.
- Amazon's new Kindle lineup was redesigned 'from the ground up,' per the company.
- A physical page-turn button accessory is sold separately for $35.
- New covers are also available as add-ons for the refreshed devices.
