Customer Reviews:
Could be great

I like magazines on my Kindle. I do not need color pictures of authors and can get the meat of the articles roughly twice as fast as the print versions. However, Newsweek omits Perspectives, Conventional Wisdom and the cartoons. Cartoons display very well on Kindle - ex: New Yorker. Unfortunately, the omitted portions are my favorite sections. Canceled the trial.
Price Increase - Print vs. Kindle

So let me get this straight. I can buy a paper subscription of 54 issues (2 years) for $40.00 on Amazon, and 2 years of Kindle Newsweek will cost me $71.78 (2.99 per month for 2 years). Is me looking at the ads that important to them? This is the reason I wait with glee for some of these publishers to go out of bussness. Bye, bye Newsweek.
Was nice until they doubled the price

I was just about to let my "dead flat trees" subscription to Newsweek lapse, as the Kindle edition was less expensive (note the past tense there). Sure, there are a few features missing from the Kindle edition, but weighing that against the convenience and the lack of paper clutter, I thought I could make the switch. Then Amazon sent a note saying that the subscription price for Newsweek would be doubled. Suddenly, it didn't look like a great deal at all.
I'm not sure whose idea it was -- Newsweek's or Amazon's -- to increase the price, but I'm very displeased. And going back to my print subscription.

The content is OK, but it is missing some of what is in the print version. More annoying, however, is the formatting and lack of pictures. How hard could it be to format this thing more like the magazine and include more photographs? Overall it's OK, and the convenience factor plus the low price make it easy to stay a subscriber. Its good that Amazon is offering a free trial.
