Voyage:
- better contrast
- page turn buttons
- auto brightness
PW4:
- more storage
- waterproof
- invert black & white
- audiobook support
- wireless VoiceView
I don’t use covers with either model.

It's amazing how what's important or a positive to one person is totally unimportant to another.
Recently, someone said their new car was faster than my 98 Nissan. I was stunned, wondering what the point was. My car is fast enough. The defining factor for me with contrast isn't Voyage versus Paperwhite 4 but rather 32 versus 78. And, immersion reading is a catchy phrase for what seems to me to be a pointless activity. If you want to be read to, go for it. I enjoy reading.
So, Voiceview, audiobook support, and inverting text are not something that I've ever used. If I want to be read to, I use my phone but that's once a year when I drive to the coast.
I always use covers/cases for my Kindle/cell phones just like I always have car insurance and an umbrella in the rainy season.
I'm amazed at the people who want some peculiar change to the Kindles and honestly think "everyone" wants it just because they do.
