It\u2019s easily worth its full $159.99 cost if you enjoy reading, but thankfully you can get $35 off for October Prime Day \u2014 its first-ever discount. The model with 16GB of storage and ads on the lockscreen is available at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/All-new-Amazon-Kindle-Paperwhite-glare-free\/dp\/B0CFPHV9ZN?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/bestbuy.7tiv.net\/c\/482924\/614286\/10014?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Famazon-kindle-paperwhite-16-gb-2024-black%2FJ39HW6QL86\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Best Buy<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/goto.target.com\/c\/482924\/81938\/2092?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.target.com%2Fp%2Famazon-kindle-paperwhite-2024-black%2F-%2FA-91563138\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Target<\/a> for $124.99.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The Paperwhite\u2019s appeal is distraction-free reading on its 7-inch 300 ppi (pixels per inch) E Ink screen. Text looks crisp, and the display\u2019s brightness and color temperature can be adjusted to your liking. The Paperwhite has enough storage to hold thousands of ebooks, and its battery can last up to 12 weeks per charge depending how much you read each day \u2014 and how bright its built-in backlights shine during your sessions.

It can be briefly submerged underwater without being damaged. With regard to the lockscreen ads I mentioned earlier, they\u2019re unobtrusive (and will never randomly pop up while you read), but Amazon offers an ad-free version of the Paperwhite that\u2019s on sale for $144.99 ($35 off) at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0DDZJS3SB\/?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Similarly, you can get the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, which is ad-free and has 32GB storage \u2014 double the storage \u2014 as well as wireless charging support and an auto-adjusting frontlight sensor.

Prime Day discounts have made it cheaper to buy the Kindle Colorsoft (Amazon\u2019s entry-level Kindle with a color display) and the 2024 Kindle Scribe (the model with the largest screen).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Kindle Paperwhite is one of the best e-readers, bar none.
