Amazon is set to launch the Kindle
Voyage ebook reader in India. NDTV
Gadgets has learnt that the Wi-Fi only
version of the Kindle Voyage will be
priced at Rs. 16,999, while the Wi-Fi +
3G version will be priced at Rs. 20,499.
The launch is likely to happen within the
next 7 days.
Amazon introduced the Kindle Voyage in
September last year alongside the 7th
generation Kindle. The Voyage is the
thinnest Kindle till date, which comes wit
a 300 pixels-per-inch display sporting
the highest resolution, contrast, and
brightness seen on any of Amazon's e-
readers so far.
The Kindle Voyage comes with a new
ambient light sensor that adjusts the
brightness of the display as you go
along. If you are fond of reading in the
dark, you will appreciate this features as
Amazon claims the adaptive front light
slowly lowers the display's brightness
over time as the eye gets used to
darkness. The Voyage also uses a haptic
actuator to deliver tactile feedback as yo
turn pages.
Like other 3G Kindles, the Kindle Voyage
3G will come with free 3G in over 100
countries across the world, which means
you can browse the Kindle store and
download books without needing to
connect to Wi-Fi.
The Kindle Voyage will join the 7th
generation Kindle (Review ), the Kindle
Paperwhite , the Kindle Paperwhite 3G
(Review ), and the previous generation
Kindle in the lineup of Amazon e-book
readers available in the country.
