Best Kindle deal
Why we like it
The Kindle Scribe is a multifunctional tablet that lets you enjoy your favorite books and magazines with the potential to be used as a digital notebook. In addition to all your normal Kindle options, the Scribe lets you take notes while reading or use it as a dedicated tablet with smooth writing and a responsive screen. This deal comes with the basic pen, which lacks the eraser and shortcut button, but it still glides over the screen smoothly.
