The holiday shopping season has already started. Amazon kicked it off with their annual Fall savings event—Prime Big Deal Days. This event stretched for two days, lasting from Tuesday, October 6 through Wednesday, October 7. Unfortunately, that means it’s over. Though, it may not be too late to save big on some select products. For instance, the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is still selling for the same reduced price it had been yesterday. Normally, you’d find this going for $250, but the 32% discount takes it down by $80. That’s brings the price you pay to just $170 for a limited time.
Reading books digitally certainly has its obvious advantages over traditional paperbacks. Now, yes, I understand that for many readers, nothing will replace the feeling of turning the pages of an actual, physical book in your hands. However, there is now denying that e-readers have their place among the book community. For starters, you can fit an entire library worth of book on a single tablet, making e-readers a great pick for when traveling.
Something tablet-based reading typically does not do well, though, is working well in the sunlight. A regular tablet screen is going to reflect the sun or any light source overhead, hindering the reading experience.
Upgrade Your Reading Experience
That’s what the Kindle Paperwhite is here to solve. This Amazon e-reader has a screen that looks and feels like paper. The matte finish means it actually gets easier to read under the sun, not harder. It’s totally glare-free. You can take the Paperwhite outside to get some reading done poolside or down at the beach, no problem. It’s also waterproof so feel free to take it into the bath with you too.
This new generation of the Kindle Paperwhite has an all-new 7-inch display which has a higher contrast ratio that is even easier to read from than the previous model, plus it’s capable of 25% faster page turns too. It also has an auto-adjusting front light and contains 32GB of storage space to fits tons and tons of books.
Battery life is reliable. On a full charge, you can expect the Kindle Paperwhite to last for up to 12 weeks. It charges over USB-C, but you can also purchase the optional wireless charging dock as an alternative.
The Kindle Store has a catalog of over 15 million titles to choose from. If you subscribe to Kindle Unlimited, you’ll be able to read from a massive selection of worldwide best sellers for one flat monthly fee.
