Amazon released the current Kindle Paperwhite model in October of 2021, so it’ll be turning 3 years old in a few months, and Amazon usually comes out with a new version every 3 years. Given that, there’s a good chance of a new Kindle Paperwhite getting released later this year, and considering the fact that […]

Another Kindle Discontinued – What’s Next?
We’re only four months into 2024 and Amazon has already discontinued two Kindles this year, while not releasing any new models since 2022. Meanwhile Kobo is releasing three new ereaders this month, two of them with color E Ink screens, and yet Amazon just keeps removing Kindles from their lineup without replacing them with anything […]

Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition On Sale, But There’s a Catch
Yesterday after posting an article about how Amazon hasn’t been putting Kindles on sale nearly as frequently as they used to, they went put the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition on sale for $159.99. Weird timing. However, it’s another Prime exclusive sale so you have to be an Amazon Prime member to get the deal, and […]
Is the 8GB Kindle Paperwhite Being Phased Out?

Be Warned, the Kindle Paperwhite’s Screen Scratches Easily
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 […]
How Many Different Ways Can Amazon Sell a Kindle?
It’s funny how Amazon releases new Kindles very infrequently, and yet when they do come out with a new model they tend to offer a bunch of different sub-versions of it. Sometimes I poke fun at Onyx for replacing their most popular models every 6-12 months to capitalize on people’s desire to have the latest […]
Kindle Paperwhite Kids on Sale, But Not Other Kindles?
Something weird is going on with Amazon, again. This past Black Friday when they last put the Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite on sale the prices were the highest “sale” prices of the year. In fact $119 for the 8GB Paperwhite 5 was the highest on-sale price ever, at only $20 off. Now Valentine’s Day is […]
