![]() It still feels like a worthwhile bump here, especially for how much more reading children can accomplish when other sources of lighting aren't available.Īs I read a bit of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets in a dark room at the Tom's Guide office, I saw that it gets more than bright enough, especially when you turn its brightness up to maximum luminance. The Kindle Kids Edition features the same front light that Amazon added to the normal Kindle, which brought its price from $80 to $90. Kids don't need to turn a light on to keep reading. That front cover flap also sticks to the back of the case, making it easier to use when reading. Hopefully, this means a Kindle Kids Edition can survive even the most chaotic backpack. This set of four gives parents a solid range to find a case that their child will appreciate - or at least be indifferent to.Īside from looking cute, the cases provide protection to the still-pretty-fragile e-ink screen, as their magnetic covers require some force to open. On the back side, where the drawing continues, one of these birdies is using a small, black rectangular-shaped device that could be a Kindle or a smartphone.Īmazon's other case options are solid blue and pink designs, and the fourth is called Space Station, and has aliens and other interplanetary lifeforms, as well as a submarine and some aquatic life. Some of those avian friends are smiling, some are wearing winter accessories and one's even listening to headphones. Our test unit came with an adorable case that features a drawing of a variety of birds on telephone cable wires. If you still can't connect to the Wi-Fi, we'd recommend using a USB cable to connect the e-reader to your computer instead.(Image credit: Future) Kindle Kids Edition cases ![]() ![]() Turn your internet off and on, and restart your Kindle. If you've tried changing your Wi-Fi router settings, and hotspotting your smartphone, and nothing's worked, there are a few quick things to check. There are accounts online of people successfully using their smartphone for this though, so it seems rather hit-and-miss. When writing this guide, not once did we manage to get our smartphone to successfully connect to the Kindle, even when trying different phones. As noticed in our testing, and corroborated by accounts online, hot-spotting to a Kindle doesn't always work. We've got a separate guide on using your smartphone as a hotspot here, so click that to find out how, but again there's a catch. If, for whatever reason, you can't get your router to output 2.4GHz, there's another option, though it's no less techy - that's by hot-spotting your smartphone, or temporarily turning your device into its own router, which will output 2.4GHz. It may be possible to get your router to start sending out 2.4GHz too. ![]() ![]() If you're able, check your Wi-Fi connection settings from your provider to see if this is the case or not. So it's possible your Kindle can't 'see' your Wi-Fi router because the box is only sending out 5GHz, while your Kindle only 'sees' 2.4GHz. Well, most tech nowadays can connect to both 2.4GHz and 5GHz, but since the latter is faster and more reliable, some routers only use it, instead of 2.4GHz. Firstly, Kindles only connect to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi - this is older, and a bit slower, than 5GHz Wi-Fi, which most modern devices use. Once you've done this, press 'Connect' and your Kindle should now be connected to the internet.Ĭan't find your Wi-Fi connection in the list? There are a few reasons why not. Now, click the name of the Wi-Fi network, and put in the password you wrote down (or have handy). On this list you should see all the Wi-Fi networks you're in range of, including the one you hope to connect to. Press 'Wi-Fi Networks' in the menu you're on, and a pop-up here should show you a list of all the internet connections in range. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2018) (Image credit: Future) ![]()
