While there’s plenty of competition from the likes of Kobo and Onyx, the Kindle Paperwhite is still our favourite e-reader, so if you want to opt for the best then here’s your chance to bag a bargain in the process.
At just 6.8-inches and 205g, the Kindle Paperwhite is lightweight and can be held with just one hand, even during prolonged reading sessions. It also boasts a solid IPX8 water-resistance rating, which means it’ll survive an accidental dunking in the pool or bathtub.
Thanks to its monochrome E Ink technology, the Kindle Paperwhite is much kinder on the eyes than standard LCD tablets. Even so, with its 300ppi resolution, text and images still appear clear, sharp and crisp.
Amazon’s Kindle bookshop is packed with both big-name titles and self-published authors, all of which are instantly accessible through the Kindle Paperwhite. Plus, Amazon regularly holds sales on the latest must-have Kindle books, where you can pick up your next favourite read for as little as 99p/99¢.
There are also extra Amazon monthly subscriptions, helping you make the most of your Kindle Paperwhite, such as Kindle Unlimited which allows you unlimited access to over millions of e-books for a monthly subscription.
With a battery that can last for multiple weeks between charges, the Kindle Paperwhite is a great choice for keeping you entertained during your commute or for holidays spent reading on the beach.
Having access to millions of books at your fingertips may seem like a pricey investment but luckily there are plenty of deals to be found for the Kindle Paperwhite. We’ve collected the best deals that are currently available from major retailers below, to save you the trouble of finding them yourself.
