Most Kindle readers know how to buy books on Kindle but when it comes to identifying the type of device they are using, their awareness level is found to be abysmally low. Here’s a quick guide to help you find which Kindle do I own.
How to find which Kindle do I own?
Amazon Kindle is quite light and easy to use. This also makes it prone to damages. As such, you must know which Kindle do I own, if you want to buy a proper covering case for it. However, you may have trouble in figuring out what Kindle Paperwhite do I have. Worry not! Just run through these steps once.
- Turn on your kindle device.
- Go to Home page.
- Choose Menu.
- Select Settings.
- Scroll down to Device options.
- Tap Device info.
- Note the Serial number.
- Compare it with the chart.
The Simple design, its long battery life and the e-ink display make Kindle the preferred choice for users.

How to tell which Kindle I have?
To find which Kindle Paperwhite do I have, turn On your device and go to the Home page.
Next, choose Menu (visible as 3 vertical dots) and select Settings from the list of options displayed.
Then, scroll down to Device Options entry. Tap the side-arrow to go to its settings.
Choose Device Info to display results related to your device.
