Page turns a much faster, I love the little extra reading area of the screen. I am not sure about the page warmth, I don't have the screen lights high enough to tell if the warmth really works.

I didn’t have the intentions to use a Kindle e-ink again after being so disappointed in the previous PaperWhite, it was so slow, to respond to downloads, and book openings and page turns. But I am very glad I did get this new PW.
The performance boost and larger screen size have made this the most impressive Kindle update for me in years. The display clarity is also discernibly better than my PW4. I haven’t had any particular issue with the wireless charging: the charging LED comes on when it’s aligned properly and turns green when it’s at full charge. By contrast my Fire HD8 Plus only gives an initial sound and animation to indicate that it’s aligned but sometimes I discover later that it slipped out of position and hasn’t charged: there’s no charging LED on it and it covers the one on the charging pad itself.

I still haven’t found any use for the warm light. I prefer Dark mode when reading in dark rooms. I wish Dark mode had an an independent setting for Warmth because any warmth at all in Dark mode is unhelpful and has to be turned off if you were using it in non Dark mode.
