I got into the game so late that none of my readers have been bad... But the worst must be the previous generation Kindle Paperwhite (2018) model, which was still "good". It doesn't have buttons, which I quickly found out is absolutely necessary for me to be able to read one-handed comfortably.

Another thing: the power button! It's placed on the bottom of the device, where I rest the reader against my hand, and it sticks out. The result was that I would always turn it off inadvertently several times per reading session. Made me want to throw it out the window.

It's funny, I have this model (Kindle 4 non touch, both the older gray one and the second black version) which I got dirt cheap out of retro curiosity. The page-turn buttons are my absolute favorite of the ones I've tried. The click is super satisfying!

I clipped a Kobo e-reader light on it and before I knew it I found myself reading several books on this 10 year old device. I would love a better screen and updated features in the same shell.
