The new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft is currently seeing its first discount as part of Amazon’s Prime Day sale. For a limited time, you can snag this premium Kindle device for 24% off.
The Kindle Scribe Colorsoft’s Prime Day discount sees the 32GB version drop to $479.99, while the 64GB version comes in at 519.99. The former is only available in Graphite, while the latter sports either Graphite or Fig colorways.
While it functions brilliantly as an e-reader, especially for graphic novels and comics, the Kindle Scribe ColorSoft is also designed to function as a notebook. As such, it comes with a stylus that lets you write, highlight, and more using the device’s 11″ paper-like screen, which feels like using real ink on paper. It’s something you have to feel to truly understand.
Even at its current sale price, the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft remains the most expensive Kindle in Amazon’s lineup — but it may prove worth it for those seeking a truly premium reading experience with bright, vivid colors. So, if you’ve been holding off on taking the plunge on this popular e-reader, there’s never been a better time. We’re not sure if it’ll see a discount this deep again anytime soon.
The Kindle Scribe Colorsoft is one of the more expensive tablets, but it’s not the only full-color reading tablet available at a discount. Amazon has dropped the price of the standard Kindle Colorsoft to a new low at just $159.99. Unlike the Scribe, it isn’t designed for taking notes or drawing, but if you are just looking for an E-ink tablet that works well for reading comics and graphic novels, this is your best bet right now.
