How Do I Find My Kindle’s Model?
Once you know which exact device you have, you’ll know what features and performance to expect. There are lots of reasons to keep this information in mind.
Different Kindle models have different screen sizes, storage, and network access. Some older models aren’t supported any more, so it may seem like your Kindle is broken when, in fact, the feature is no longer supported.
Find Your Kindle’s Model Name and Number on the Kindle Itself
As long as your Kindle works, you can find information about it in Device Info. Here’s where to find the model name and number.
Tap the More menu in the upper-right corner (three vertical dots), and then choose Settings. On some models, the More menu looks like three horizontal lines. Choose Device Options. Tap Device Info. Find your Kindle’s model name / number.
Go to Accounts & Lists > Content & Devices. Hover over your account name to make this appear. Select Devices. It’s in the menu bar. Select Kindle. Your devices will be listed with their model name and generation.
