Here’s an interesting development. It’s now possible to get 20% off on the new Kindle Scribe when trading in an old Kindle, and it doesn’t even have to work to get the discount. I’m surprised Amazon is allowing trade-ins on the Kindle Scribe considering how much more the discount amounts to than a typical Kindle […]

New Kindle Scribe with 10.2″ Screen and Pen for $339
It’s finally happening. Amazon is releasing a new Kindle with a larger screen and stylus support called the Kindle Scribe. It’s available to pre-order starting today and it’s expected to get released on November 30th. The price starts at $339 for the 16GB model with the basic stylus pen.

Kindle Software Update 5.15.1 Released, Adds Cover Images for EPUBs
Amazon has released another software update for all Kindles dating back to the Kindle Paperwhite 3 from 2015 (also called the 7th generation Kindle Paperwhite).

Comparing New Basic Kindle with New Fire HD8 Tablet
Over the past couple weeks Amazon has released a new 6-inch Kindle ereader and a new 8-inch Fire HD8 tablet, and oddly enough they both sell for $99. When you start comparing the features, it’s hard to believe they sell for the same price because the Fire HD8 tablet has a lot more going for […]
Is the Kindle Oasis Going to Be Discontinued Soon?
Last week Amazon announced the upcoming release of a new basic Kindle on October 12th, and some people are still eagerly awaiting an announcement about a new upgraded Kindle Oasis or other premium Kindle. At this point I would say that is very unlikely to happen, and it’s looking more likely that the Kindle Oasis […]
Kindle Paperwhite Now Available with 16GB of Storage – Don’t Fall For It
With the release of the new basic Kindle for 2022, Amazon has added the option to get a standard Kindle Paperwhite with 16GB of storage, and it’s available with or without ads. The new basic Kindle comes with 16GB of storage space and it sells for only $99, so it seems rather silly for Amazon […]
Differences Between New Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite
Now that Amazon has started taking orders for a new base Kindle, there’s some confusion about how it compares to the current Kindle Paperwhite that Amazon released last year, so here’s a list of the differences between the two models. Amazon refers to both Kindles as 11th generation models. The Kindle Paperwhite was released in […]
