# How do I know what is my Kindle called?

In this guide (and pretty much all of MobileRead) will be referring to the models by their nicknames (eg: `PW4` for the `Kindle Paperwhite (10th Generation)`).

*In this guide, when it mentions a device, assume that all variants are included unless specified otherwise. (eg: PW5 will include both PW5 and PW5SE, KOA3 will include KOA3W32C, KOA3G32JP, KOA3G32, KOA3W32 and so on.)*

To check the model you have and your serial number, go into `Settings` > `Device Options` > `Device Info`, a window will pop up showing what model your Kindle is, alongside other things including your serial number.

### To see what serial number corresponds with which Kindle model, go to the [MobileRead Wiki](https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers) to find out.

*I have chosen to not duplicate the S/N table here to not cause more fragmentation, and thus, more things to keep up to date.*

## Once you've identified your Kindle, go to [Determining what options you can use to jailbreak](/kindlemodding/getting-started/determining-the-method-to-use-for-jailbreaking.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kindlemodding.gitbook.io/kindlemodding/getting-started/how-do-i-know-what-is-my-kindle-called.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
