As Part of Amazon’s Early Presidents’ Day Sale, You Can Get a Refurbished Kindle Paperwhite for $115.
Presidents’ Day sales are approaching, and deals are popping up early ; right now, Amazon is selling the newest 2024 Kindle Paperwhite in like-new condition for $114.99 (original price: $143.99). A new Paperwhite would have set you back $159.99, so the refurbished version is a much better deal while supplies last (Kindle Paperwhite deals tend to sell out quickly).
The Kindle Paperwhite is Amazon’s most popular reading tablet , and PCMag considers it the best choice for most users, earning it an “Excellent” rating . It offers numerous improvements over the 2021 11th-generation version, primarily a larger seven-inch display and significantly faster performance. It retains all the great features that made the previous version so great, such as a fully waterproof design with an IPX8 rating, enough memory to store over 10,000 books, and unlimited cloud storage. For an ad-free experience with enhanced features, upgrade to the Signature Edition .
If you’re unsure whether this Kindle model is right for you, consider the Colorsoft version —it supports color, making reading manga or comics more vibrant. We also have a detailed breakdown of all Kindle types to help you decide. If you already have an 11th-generation Kindle, there may not be enough reasons to upgrade unless you want the latest model from Amazon. However, older devices may be worth upgrading for features like Bluetooth compatibility, which is great for audiobooks.
The screen has a 300 ppi (pixels per inch) resolution and 16 backlight levels, as well as an optional warm backlight. I use this feature for reading before bed to avoid eye strain. I also really like the incredibly long battery life. This model is rated to last up to 12 weeks on a single charge, depending on usage and brightness settings.
