Kindle Paperwhite Technically was gifted to me, but I got it at least 7 years ago and it still holds up amazingly. I have to charge it a little more often, once every 2 months instead of like 2 times a year, but prob the only electronic I have that I have yet to replace.

Oh and my Ti-84+ that Ive had since hs and still works amazingly

Yeah, Kindles are amazing like that - I only replaced my first one because the cellular network it used no longer exists so it couldn’t download

Ebook readers are so so good.. One of my best purchases as well.. I do recommend Kobo however, as to break Amazon's monopoly. You can sideload books and even install a different OS/software. I use koreader, but there are others.

The battery isn’t too difficult to replace
