If you haven’t yet made up your mind on which Kindle Scribe model to buy, here is one for you to consider. Amazon is offering a steep discount on the first-gen Kindle Scribe, which is currently selling for just $199. That makes an extremely competitive price for an E Ink tablet sporting a 10.2-inch 300 PPI e-paper display.
The price mentioned above applies to the entry-level Kindle Scribe model having 16 gigs of native storage. Also, the Scribe comes bundled with the basic pen, and if you’d prefer the Premium Pen instead, the price goes up to $219. The Premium Pen might also be worth the extra cost, as it comes with a built-in eraser that greatly aids in editing while taking notes. This is perhaps the lowest the Kindle Scribe has sold for, considering that it otherwise sports a price tag of $339 with the basic pen, and goes up to $369 with the Premium Pen.
Kindle released the first-generation Kindle Scribe in 2022 and followed that up with the second-generation Kindle Scribe in 2024. However, the thing to keep in mind is that both versions are nearly identical. They have the same basic design, display, and hardware features.
The newer version only comes with a new color scheme which includes new color options of Metallic Jade and Tungsten. Also, with the bezel now done up in white, this gives the impression of the display getting extended all the way up to the edges.
Also, it is only the entry-level Kindle Scribe with 16 GB of storage that is offered for sale. Nonetheless, this can be considered a total steal for a brand-new 10-inch segment e-note device bundled with a stylus. This can well be considered one of the best Prime Day 2025 sale offers so far.
