Prep Your Winter Reading With Steep Discounts On Kindle Scribe And Paperwhite

If you read more than a few ebooks a year, the Kindle Paperwhite is a smart investment. Not only does it hold thousands of ebooks, but its small footprint makes it easier to travel with than a paperback or hardcover. It’s currently discounted to one of its best prices of the year for Prime Big Deal Days, and you’ll now find it for just $125 (was $150).

This is the newest version of the ereader, offering a larger 6.8-inch display, thinner borders, an adjustable light, and up to a staggering 10 weeks of battery life. It’s also waterproof, so you can bring it to the pool without worrying about splashes. Alternatively, there’s a Kindle Paperwhite Essentials Bundle that pairs the Kindle paperwhite with a fabric cover and a power adapter for $135 (was $205). Both versions are ad-supported--expect to drop an extra $15 to buy the ad-free versions.

If you’re shopping for kids, consider buying the Kindle Paperwhite Kids Edition (11th Gen) instead, as it comes with a durable cover to better protect the device from drops and scratches. You’ll also get a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+ and a two-year guarantee--all for just $115 (was $170).

The popular Kindle Paperwhite isn’t the only Amazon ereader on sale for Prime Big Deal Days, and if you’re interested in both reading and taking notes, the Kindle Scribe is a much better choice. It includes a Basic Pen so you can take notes, draw pictures, or doodle in the margins of all your novels. Just like the Paperwhite, it offers an e-ink display that’s great for reading and 16GB storage for all your books and notes.

Typically sold for $340, it’s down to the impressive price of $255. You could also consider picking up the Kindle Scribe Essentials Bundle for $300 (was $440), which gets you a magnetic leather folio cover and power adapter.
