I recently discovered that my Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition has some light scratches on the screen, which is surprising since I keep it in a case all the time and rarely use it (the Kindle Scribe and Kindle Voyage are the two main Kindles that I use most often). It must’ve gotten scratched while cleaning […]

New Kindle Getting Released in 2024 is Highly Likely
Rumors about new Kindles have started up again because the guy who’s known for accurately predicting new Apple products has predicted that Amazon will start releasing Kindles with color E Ink screens, but some people seem to be missing the point that he doesn’t predict that is going to happen until 2025. He also predicts […]
Kindle Oasis and Older Basic Kindles On Sale at Woot
I know some people are disappointed that Amazon has discontinued the Kindle Oasis and is no longer selling it on the main Amazon website, but you can still get an “Amazon refurbished” Kindle Oasis for cheap from Woot.

Kindle Scribe Sales Numbers Keep Declining Rapidly
Last month I did a couple of posts with estimated sales figures for the Kindle Scribe based on the monthly sales numbers that Amazon now shows for most products on their website. The first post was on January 12th so part of the holiday shopping season was included in the data, and the overall Kindle […]
Kindle Oasis Has Been Removed From Kindle Lineup
Over the past few months there have been some signs that Amazon was in the process of phasing out the Kindle Oasis, and it looks like that time has officially come. The Kindle Oasis has been removed from the main Kindle landing page at Amazon, and it no longer appears in Amazon’s Kindle comparison tables […]
Don’t Waste Money on Kindles with Too Much Storage Space
