With the Kids Edition, there won't be any adverts as standard.

No Adverts – Regular Kindles are sold at a slight discount if you agree to let Amazon advertise to you on the lock screen.

There's choice of four colorful covers to choose from, with magnetic clasps to keep them closed.

Cover – Amazon is including a cover with the Kindle Kids Edition – no doubt in an attempt to foil the mishaps mentioned above.

This means that if your child drops their Kindle, throws it in the bath, or smears it in pasta sauce, Amazon will send you a new one, no questions asked.

Just like its Fire Kids Edition range, Amazon is giving users a no-quibble two-year warranty on new devices. 2-year warranty – For many parents, this could be the feature that seals the deal.But, it's the extras that make this version of Amazon's e-reader so child-friendly: Amazon has given junior readers a little more storage though, with 8GB, compared to 4GB on the standard Kindle.

This means that young readers get a 6-inch screen, with a light, plus an estimated four-week battery life. There's no surprise here – the Kids Fire tablets have always been pre-existing models that have been given some child-focused features. So, what exactly is the Kindle Kids Edition? Well, on the surface, it's pretty much the entry-level Kindle that Amazon is already selling. It appears to be adopting the same approach that made its Fire Kids edition so popular – namely, offering a generous warranty, plus exclusive features for both children and parents. With the Kindle Kids Edition, Amazon is looking to rectify this. That's something of a surprise, given that the Kindle Fire tablet range has had a child-friendly version for a number of years now.

However, you may still be able to sideload your own eBook files over USB.While Amazon has been selling us Kindles for years, the one unexploited gap in its market has been a child-focused ebook device. Some models, like the Kindle DX, Kindle, and Kindle 2, didn't even have Wi-Fi to fall back on - they were 3G-only, and they'll be entirely unable to connect to the internet or the Kindle Store. All these model Kindles (some of which are as recent as 2017) will lose cellular connectivity entirely - in most cases, that was a feature customers would have paid extra for. The shutdown will affect 3G/cellular models of the Kindle 2 International, Kindle DX, the Kindle Keyboard, Kindle Touch, Kindle Paperwhite, 2nd gen Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Voyage, 3rd gen Kindle Paperwhite, and the original Kindle Oasis. The company has published a new help page that offers concerned customers more details about the change.

While the company wouldn't answer our questions at the time, now it's emailing affected device owners explaining they'll get a $50-70 discount towards a new Kindle and $15-25 in eBook credit, and Amazon tells us that Kindle 1st gen owners are outright getting a free Kindle Oasis.

In some cases, as with particularly old Kindles missing Wi-Fi, this shutdown would mean they'd stop working entirely. Last month, we asked Amazon what was going to happen when AT&T's planned 3G shutdown in 2022 lands - an important question, as the company's Whispernet-branded 3G connectivity for many Kindle devices would be affected, since it piggybacks on AT&T's network.
