Official: Kindles get heavier as you add e-books

Ones or Zeros?

As the memory is in flash, the actual data will be an exces or deficit of electrons.

Guessing that the flash starts off as zeros and has the ones programmed in by adding electrons, then any content will weigh more than no content.

Alternatively, if the flash starts off as ones and has zeros set by the programming then the book will get lighter with new content

Obviously YMMV

ZTE - bad

I've had nothing but bad news with ZTE phones and rebranded ZTE phones.

If you want quality look at the Huawei phones. They are 1-2 orders of magnitude better.
