There was once a time when we marveled at the idea of a new book, with that recognizable scent and the feeling of crisp pages between our fingertips. Nowadays, physical books have been traded for digital files stored in labeled folders on phones and tablets. Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite and its premium alternative, the Paperwhite Signature Edition, have garnered ample popularity for providing access to thousands of books in a portable, customizable format, making it one of our favorite Amazon e-readers.

There's nothing like getting comfy with a good book during the holiday season, and if you're a bookworm with a backlog of titles you're hoping to read, a Kindle e-reader makes it neat and easy to burn through your favorite books. While nothing replaces the feel of a book in your hands, Amazon's Kindles are a great substitute to the real thing for those without the space to keep hard copies around, and having access to over 2 million titles and audiobooks in one little device sure does make it easy to get lost in your stories.

With Prime Day finally here, it should come as no surprise some of the best deals around are on Amazon's own devices. That includes the Kindle Paperwhite, which is an excellent deal for readers of all ages. Admittedly, this Kids edition of the e-reader is aimed at younger children, with free access to Amazon Kids+ service and its thousands of titles, but there is plenty here for parents to love, too. The Kids edition also includes a free cover, 16GB of storage, a 2-year worry-free warranty, and absolutely no lock screen ads. It's essentially a regular Paperwhite with a handful of nice add-ons, and right now you can grab one for just $105.

Reading your favorite books anywhere you want is one of the many benefits of picking up an e-reader. With so many top e-ink e-readers to choose from, it isn't always easy to choose between the different e-readers out there. Take the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2022) and the Nook GlowLight 4, for example. While both are great e-readers, they have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Your digital library of books and audiobooks needs a home, and since Amazon has long been producing some of the best e-readers with its Kindle lineup, it's no surprise that one or two of its Kindle devices may have caught your eye. Both the Kindle Paperwhite and the Kindle Oasis offer a great reading experience and deserve to be in your top consideration for your next e-reader, but is the premium price of the Oasis really worth it?

For a limited time, Best Buy is slashing the price on the 2022 Kindle Paperwhite Kids so you can get the 16GB option for just $115. If you'd rather get the 2021 version with only 8GB of storage space, you can get that one too, but it's $105 at Best Buy and Amazon, and it makes more sense to just shell out an extra $10 for double the storage space.

As a lover of all things to do with e-reading, I have more than a few Kindles in my house, but the one model that gets the most use is easily my Kindle Paperwhite. Not only is the 6.8-inch E Ink display perfect for reading novels, but the device remains portable enough that you can easily carry it around the house and office. Since warm lighting is included, reading in bed isn't as irritating as it once was.

Amazon's electronics are known for their streamlined, user-friendly approach, and its Kindle e-reader lineup supports that reputation well. The higher-tier Kindles, especially, look and feel like premium devices, with helpful touches like a wide array of LED lights and automatic dimming to ensure eye comfort. It usually costs quite a bit to get your hands on a high-end e-reader, but Amazon's Prime Early Access Sale offers the perfect opportunity to jump into the world of e-books at a reasonable price.

This week, Amazon announced the first refresh of its base Kindle e-reader in over three years, delivering some of the best features from the Paperwhite at a more affordable price. As it stands, there's very little reason to buy Amazon's upgraded model, as $100 now gets you a high-res display, USB-C charging, and even more storage for your collection of books. For anyone hoping to be persuaded by the more expensive version — despite the similarities — your prayers have been answered.

Are you an avid reader? Have you thought about making the switch from paper to e-reader? Amazon isn't in the habit of discounting its Kindles often — we've got our thoughts on the best Kindle out there, by the way — but you might just be in luck if you act fast for these deals on the Kindle Paperwhite and the Kindle Oasis just in time for the new school year.

It's hard out there for many people right now, which makes a life-improving deal even easier to recommend. The newest Kindle Paperwhite is one of my favorite gadgets of the past year, and not necessarily for the reasons you'd think. Yes, it's a very good e-reader, and finally ships with USB-C along with an improved e-ink display, water resistance, and optional wireless charging on the Signature Edition.

Whether you like to read books or articles, an Amazon Kindle is an excellent option, thanks to its E-Ink screen that's easy on the eyes, as well as its light weight that makes it easy to take virtually anywhere. Sadly, e-readers don't usually come cheap, so it's best to buy them when they're discounted. Thankfully, Amazon's latest Kindle Paperwhite is currently $30 off, down to just $110. You can even save an additional $20 if you buy a second one, bringing the bundle price down to $200.

Amazon is the undisputed leader when it comes to e-readers, thanks to its iconic Kindle. The latter is now so popular that it's declined in a variety of models, including the Kindle Oasis and Paperwhite. The latter was last renewed in 2018 and is starting to age, especially given it still has a microUSB port. Thankfully, Amazon just announced three new Kind Paperwhite models, including a Signature edition, as well as a kid-friendly model.

Prime Day is a great time to pick up some of those items that have been wasting away on your wish list. It's also when you'll find unbeatable deals on all of Amazon's own gadgets. This year, you can find major deals on all of Amazon's Fire tablets and Kindles, along with an unbeatable deal on the latest 10" model: just .Amazon refreshed the Fire HD 10 just two months ago, but if you've been waiting for a sale, your patience has paid off. The 10" model usually goes for $150, but it's just under half off for Prime Day. At $80, this tablet is a total steal. With long battery life and 1080p display, it's the perfect device for watching Netflix or checking Twitter around the house. Plus, it's super easy to get the Play Store up and running, so you aren't limited from using all of your favorite Google apps.

If you've ever bought or seriously considered purchasing an e-reader, the odds that at least one Kindle made it onto your shortlist are pretty high. Amazon's family of e-readers have become so ubiquitous that Kindle has effectively replaced e-reader in the popular lexicon. The retailer is currently offering some great deals on both the base-model Kindle, available for $60 with Amazon's special offers or $75 without, and the Kindle Paperwhite, starting at $85 for the 8GB model with special offers or $100 without them.The latest version of the standard Kindle includes an adjustable front light, which, when coupled with the Kindle display's excellent performance in direct sunlight, should make for easy reading regardless of lighting conditions. Amazon's latest Kindle Paperwhite is now waterproof and features a higher resolution display than the base model, so you can read worry-free, whether you're poolside, on the beach, or in the tub.
