In a lot of ways, the introduction of the Kindle marked Amazon's transformation into that Silicon Valley dream, the "everything company." From a humble black-and-white e-ink reader (that still sold out in five hours) to a multimedia tablet powerhouse, Kindles now come in a wide range of form factors and functionalities. Leading up to Prime Day, Amazon has some Kindle deals that are more than worth your time.

Amazon Kindle

Amazon Kindle

The lightest and most space-efficient iteration of the original Kindle concept, the 11th generation Amazon Kindle has a crisp, sharp e-ink screen, 16GB of storage, and a USB-C port for charging for the first time. We gave it four stars in our review, praising the increased screen quality and battery life. If you're in the market for a no-frills e-reader, this is an absolute steal.

Kindle Kids

Kindle Kids

Young readers will dive into the 2022 Kindle Kids release, which combines the technical improvements from the 11th generation Kindle with a durable cover to prevent screen damage and a complimentary year-long subscription to Amazon Kids+. The parental controls allow for granular management of what kinds of content your child can access, and the long battery life is perfect for car trips. This one was also a four star review, and the price can't be beat.

Kindle Paperwhite

Kindle Paperwhite

The only downside of the Kindle's e-ink screen is that certain light conditions can make it difficult to use. In 2012, Amazon rolled out the Paperwhite line, which added four LED lights to illuminate the screen, and that simple bonus has caused us to rank it as the Editors' Choice for e-readers. The most recent iteration has a 6.8-inch display with 17 LEDs that can be adjusted to a variety of tones, plus 8GB of storage, waterproofing, and more.

There are a lot of reasons to opt for the Paperwhite Kids model of the Kindle for your little ones, but the biggest one is waterproofing. This is also a great deal on the device, which boasts a 6.8-inch display and a one-year Amazon Kids+ subscription. Our review points out that the combined value of the device, the case, and the subscription is way higher than what you're paying, and the two-year replacement guarantee is the cherry on top.

Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition

Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition

If you're the type of person who needs all of the bells and whistles, the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is the pick of the litter. As we note in our review, the basics of this e-reader are identical to the 5th generation Paperwhite, but the addition of Qi wireless charging and ambient light sensors that can brighten or dim the screen automatically are pretty cool. The big draw here is 32GB of storage, which is beefy enough for most libraries.
