Amazon has launched the Kindle Voyage in India which is the 7th generation of Kindle and their best so far in terms of features and display quality. The Kindle Voyage is also their thinnest offering yet. For those who are unaware, an Amazon Kindle is an e-reader manufactured by the e-commerce giant Amazon. The Kindle allows users to shop for, download, browse, and read e-books, newspapers, magazines and other digital media using wireless networking technology.

"Our mission with Kindle is to make the device disappear, so you can lose yourself in the author's world," said Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com Founder and CEO. "Kindle Voyage is the next big step in this mission. With the thinnest design, highest resolution and highest contrast display, reimagined page turns, and all of the features that readers love about Kindle—books in seconds, no eyestrain or glare, readability in bright sunlight, and battery life measured in weeks, not hours—Kindle Voyage is crafted from the ground up for readers."

"The stylishly designed Kindle Voyage was crafted to give readers the best possible reading experience," said Rajiv Mehta, Country Manager, Kindle India. "They can download books from the selection of 3 million eBooks in the India Kindle Store, read for hours without eyestrain or glare, and even read in bright sunlight. With free 3G available on Kindle Voyage, users never have to hunt for or pay for a Wi-Fi hotspot. With a battery life that's measured in weeks, it is the perfect reading companion."

The Kindle Voyage was unveiled for the Indian audience at the opening day's finale show by JJ Valaya, titled "The Bolshoi Bazaar" at the Amazon India Fashion week Autumn-Winter, 2015.

"It gives me immense joy to associate with Kindle, an experience discovered by me only a few months back. Being an avid reader or rather used to soaking in visual experiences of elaborate coffee table books, I had never really felt the need to invest in books that were meant to be read. But the geek in me unearthed the reader in me when I discovered Kindle…be it Philosophy, Poetry, History from across the planet, this was the perfect answer!" said Valaya.

"We want to make it easier for our customers across India to read more and more, anytime and anywhere. The choice of devices and additional payment methods are all to enable and celebrate their passion for reading." added Mehta.
