**London, UK -** Amazon is gearing up to launch a new generation of its popular Kindle e-reader, potentially as early as September 30th. While the release date is still unconfirmed, leaks from a Spanish retailer have revealed a number of exciting upgrades for the 12th-generation Kindle.

The upcoming model is expected to be significantly more environmentally friendly, boasting a design made with 75% recycled plastic and 90% recycled magnesium. Amazon is also reportedly switching to packaging made from 98% wood fiber sourced from recycled materials or sustainably managed forests.

Beyond its eco-conscious design, the 2024 Kindle is rumored to offer a brighter 300ppi screen with 25% more illumination compared to the current 11th-generation model. The leak also suggests faster page turns, although the reason behind this remains unclear.

Further rumored specs include 16GB of storage, a battery life of up to 8 weeks (significantly better than the current model’s 4 weeks), and dimensions matching the current Kindle at 157.8 x 108.6 x 8 mm.

Tech experts are hopeful that the new Kindle will also include features currently absent from the base model, such as the E Ink Carta 1300 display, which offers improved page responsiveness and contrast, and adjustable warm light. They also express a desire for waterproofing, a feature present in the Kindle Paperwhite but missing from the standard Kindle.

The leak suggests that the new Kindle will be available in a vibrant green colorway, further adding to its appeal.

While Amazon has yet to officially confirm any of these features, the leaked details suggest that the 2024 Kindle will be a significant upgrade from its predecessor, offering a compelling combination of eco-friendliness, enhanced features, and a fresh new look.
