Several of our favorite e-readers are discounted, including one that's now under $100.
From Amazon 's older Kindle Scribe and colorful Colorsoft models to Kobo's Libra Colour, my all-around favorite e-reader, there are plenty of options at decent discounts. It's the perfect time to get ahead on Mother's Day and Father's Day shopping, find a gift for your favorite graduate-to-be, or just grab a new e-reader for yourself if you're tired of reading Libby books on your iPhone, like I was.
Switching to a Kindle gave my wrists and eyes more joy than you could ever guess. Here are the best e-reader deals I spotted during Amazon's Big Spring Sale, as WIRED's resident e-reader reviewer. Best E-Reader Deals This powerful little e-reader is my overall favorite, with a color screen, page-turning buttons, and a stylus you can buy separately to transform it into a digital notebook. It's easy to annotate on the pages themselves, too, and color-code your highlights. It's often on sale for this same $30 off, but still worth snagging at this price. This is the older Kindle Scribe, but the price and features are the best you'll get, especially when it's on sale like this. I still reach for this model even though I have the newer third generation, and keep in mind the second generation will also get some of the newer software and experiences over time. With the sale, it's half the price of the newer model. If you're already a Kindle reader and looking to upgrade, it's likely because you want a new feature like a color screen. While the Kobo above is the better buy, if you want to stay in the Kindle ecosystem but add some color to your books, both the Colorsoft and Colorsoft Signature are on sale. If you're looking to spend as little as possible, the basic Kindle is still a great e-reader and is currently under $100. It can do almost everything the other Kindles can on a snappy black-and-white screen. It doesn't have a warm front light either, but it's still a great purchase for the price.
