Micro USB vs USB-C isn't important and most people reading just fiction have no advanatge of 32G vs 4G. The 32G is probably cheaper now than 4G at new now.

So if the new 2022 Kindle Basic is basically a PW3 with USB-C and more Flash, that's fine and far better than prior Basic models or PW2.
Or the PW4 as long as the screen is at least as good as the PW3.
