Amazon drops its newest Kindle to $90, one of the best prices since its release

Book lovers are likely to love this deal at Amazon, as it drops the newest Kindle down to one of its best prices since it was released. The 16GB model of the Amazon Kindle regularly goes for $110, but right now you can pick it up for just $90. This is only the second discount the new Kindle has seen, so we feel now is a great time to make a purchase, as there’s no telling when the next one may come around.

Why you should buy the Amazon Kindle

The Amazon Kindle has become nearly synonymous with digital books, and with this newest release Amazon has made the device faster and brighter. The brightness can come in handy if you like to read outdoors or in bright lighting situations, or if you just like to kick back with a book somewhere you don’t have control of the lighting around you like in a coffee shop. The improved speed is noticeable in things like faster page turns and when opening books.

In addition to the Kindle’s display being brighter, it’s also glare-free. It checks in at six inches, emulating a size that’s similar to holding a traditional book. The Kindle is able to get up to six weeks of battery life out of a single charge, so it’s the kind of device you can throw in a bag and keep with you without having to think about it much.

One of the biggest draws of a Kindle, of course, is access. You’re free to load it up with books of your own, but if you opt for a Kindle Unlimited subscription you’ll also get access to more than 4 million titles, as well as thousands of audio books. The 16GB capacity allows for the downloading and storing of thousands of books.

While it regularly goes for $110, right now you can grab a new Kindle for $90. That’s good for $20 in savings, and Amazon will throw in an additional 20% off if you have a similar device to trade-in, so this is the perfect opportunity for current Kindle users to upgrade or for new users to jump into the ecosystem.
