Kindle Click: A new Bluetooth page-turning remote
Kindle has released the Kindle Click, its first Bluetooth page-turning remote, compatible with Kindle models from 2024 onward. According to WIRED, the device eliminates the need for third-party remotes that often block part of the screen and require tracking separate batteries. It includes a lanyard for wrist attachment, making it easier to use during extended reading sessions.
The Kindle Click is designed to work seamlessly with Kindle stands, allowing users to turn pages without lifting a finger. This addresses a common frustration for readers who use accessories like grips or cases, where physical buttons are often inconveniently placed.
Compatibility and testing
WIRED reports that most accessories in its guide were tested on the 2024 generation of Kindle models, including the Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Colorsoft. Newer Kindle models have slight size differences compared to older versions, so users are advised to verify compatibility before purchasing accessories.
Unlike older models, the latest Kindles do not include a charging block, only a USB-C cord. This means users will need to purchase a separate charging block or rely on portable power banks.
What this means
Lazyfounder analysis — our interpretation, not reported fact.
The Kindle Click fills a gap in Kindle’s ecosystem by offering a first-party solution for wireless page-turning, a feature readers have long relied on third-party devices to fulfill. For founders and operators in the consumer electronics space, this move signals Kindle’s commitment to refining its hardware ecosystem, potentially setting a new standard for e-reader accessories. Competitors like Kobo may need to respond with similar innovations or risk losing users who prioritize convenience. The shift also highlights the importance of backward compatibility and accessory design in retaining customer loyalty.
