Here is a short update on the latest deals Amazon is offering right now. Just a while back, it was offering a kids device bundle comprising the Kindle Kids, Fire HD 8 Kids Pro, and the Echo Pop Kids. While that has now been withdrawn, it has now put up the Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition for sale. However, there is a catch: both the e-readers on sale are in a refurbished state. Also, the thing to keep in mind here is that both deals are open exclusively for Amazon Prime members. Seems the fun has already started for subscribers of the Amazon Prime program.
To get to the specifics, the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite is now available for $106.99, which is 26 percent less than the regular price of $143.99. The Paperwhite offers 16 gigs of storage and comes in a shade of Jade. This also happens to be the newest Paperwhite model that was first launched in October 2024. The Paperwhite on offer is ad-supported and does not include Kindle Unlimited. Other color options include Black and Raspberry.
The new Kindle Paperwhite is also considered the fastest Kindle ever, with the 7-inch e-paper display having a higher contrast ratio and 25 percent faster page turns. It offers an adjustable front light where you can turn from white to amber shade. This ensures you can continue reading in the sunlight or in the dark with utmost convenience. The waterproof build ensures safe reading even by the pool or in the bathtub.
Then there is the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition with 32 GB of onboard storage that is now selling for $126.99. That makes for a 29 percent discount over a regular price of $179.99. It comes in a shade of Metallic Raspberry, Metallic Black, and Metallic Jade. The 7-inch Paperwhite e-paper display offers stunning contrast with brighter whites and deeper blacks.
Page turn speed has also improved by 25 percent. There is also the auto-adjusting front light that adds to the reading convenience like no other. Other features include a waterproof and ultra-thin build that makes it travel-friendly. You can carry it to the beach or the pool safely with zero risk of it getting water-damaged. Battery life can extend to up to 12 weeks and can be charged wirelessly using the Amazon-provided charging dock.
Amazon has stated that each of the devices has undergone rigorous testing, which includes full diagnostic tests followed by a thorough cleaning and inspection. All defective parts are identified and replaced to ensure the device is fully functional. All pre-existing data is wiped clean, and software is updated to the latest build available. The battery is also put through an extensive testing procedure and charged if needed.
Meanwhile, Amazon Prime Day Sale starts July 8 and will run through July 11, 2025. Stay tuned for all the latest deals and other updates.
