As you get into your online holiday shopping, there are some amazing tech deals you should be aware of. One in particular that stands out is the Black Friday Kindle sale at Amazon, which includes some first-time deals on the newly launched Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, Kindle Kids, and Kindle Paperwhite Kids.
In case you missed it, Amazon announced a few brand-new Kindles back in October, alongside upgraded versions of most models. Depending on how much storage you need and who you’re shopping for, the 2024 Amazon Kindle with 16GB storage is a safe pick for anyone.
Save $25 on the New Amazon Kindle (16 GB)
Why choose (or upgrade to) the newest model?
The latest Kindle’s glare-free screen has an adjustable, brighter front light and higher contrast than previous models, making reading easier and faster with quicker page turns. This USB-C charged model has a sustainable design made with recycled materials, which is an added bonus in my book. Grab this Kindle deal while you can!

Why a Kindle Is Worth the Investment
Here’s what commerce writer and Kindle owner, Hannah Hoolihan had to say: “Since the Kindles use e-ink instead of traditional screens like your phone or iPad, they can be read in just about any lighting. In fact, the pages look like actual paper pages, so any artificial light or even bright sunlight are no factor when using the Kindle. It only uses energy when you turn the page, use the backlight or leave Wi-Fi turned on, so if you go into Airplane mode you can go weeks, even months, between charging your Kindle. Generally I go long enough to completely forget where I put my charging cable.”
