September 2012 new Kindle 4 international
Hello, I want to buy my first Kindle. Amazon offers me The Kindle 4 international for $89. Does anybody know if that would be the 2011 or 2012 model. It seems to be the only internatinal Kindle 4 at the moment.

Quite simple: if the bezel is black, it's the 2012 model. If it's gray, it's the 2011 model. I suppose it'll be the newer model though.

Sounds simple enough haha. I discovered now that I had ordered the 2011 model. I corrected that (strange that both models cost the same I did indeed recognize the difference in color and that the new model has obviously less comments) and will be a proud owner of my very first Kindle soon! I hope to learn a lot about Kindles from all of you.

Thanks Blossom! It won't be here in time for my next trip. My Sony has to do for that trip, but that's oke. As long as I know that my new Kindle is waiting for me at home
Edit: Does anybody know if the usb-adapter from Apple works with this Kindle? Last edited by Joy736; 09-17-2012 at 02:34 PM. Reason: One more question to ask |

EDIT: You can also just plug it into you computer USB port and that will charge it, but it will take much longer than using an AC adapter. Last edited by jswinden; 09-17-2012 at 02:58 PM. |

Here is a good thread about the K4. This is about the model from last year with the silver bezel, but a lot of it should also apply to the model for this year with the black bezel. |
