If you’re adding books to your reading list way faster than you’re finishing them, you might want to try an e-reader. The convenience of having a slim portable device that can store an entire library might give you one fewer reason to flake on your annual reading goals — plus, there’s nothing like seeing that Goodreads number go up.
Conveniently, Amazon loves to discount its own devices during its annual Prime Day event (which is happening on July 12 and 13 this year) — and that includes the popular Kindle e-reader. Below, you’ll find a running list of the best Kindle deals we’ve found during the sale. Spoiler: Most of them are sitting at new record-low prices for the occasion. This year, we’ve broken out the best Prime Day deals by category as well as in a Prime Day live blog.
Note: We’re updating this page constantly, so check back often. All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a strikeout were either sold out or no longer available at their sale price when we last looked. Anything marked with a 🔥 has dropped to an all-time low price.

Our pick: Kindle (10th generation) 🔥
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
The 10th-generation Kindle features 8GB of storage, a weeks-long battery life, Bluetooth support, and a 167 ppi glare-free display that reads like real paper even in bright sunlight. It made its debut in 2019 as the first sub-$100 Kindle with an adjustable front light.
It’s way under $100 for Prime Day: You can order one for just $44.99, which is half off its $89.99 MSRP and a new all-time low. As if that weren’t enough, Amazon is also throwing in a free three month trial of Kindle Unlimited (typically $9.99/month for Prime members) and a $5 ebook credit that you can spend within 21 days of purchasing your device.
Kindle Paperwhite deals

Our pick: Kindle Paperwhite (11th generation, 8GB) 🔥
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
Last year’s Kindle Paperwhite refresh upgraded an already-fantastic e-reader with a larger, brighter 300 ppi glare-free display, smaller bezels, USB-C charging with up to 10 weeks of battery life, and 20% faster page turns. Mashable tech reporter Alex Perry said it was a little laggy in his review, but wound up deeming it “an elegant e-reader that is enjoyable to use” overall.
Grab the entry-level (8GB) model on sale for just $94.99 this Prime Day — that’s 32% off its $139.99 MSRP and its lowest price to date. Like the standard Kindle, it comes with those three free months of Kindle Unlimited and a $5 ebook credit.

Our pick: Kindle Oasis (10th generation, 8GB) 🔥
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
The 10th-gen Kindle Oasis from 2019 was a pretty boring upgrade over the previous model from 2017, but it’s still one of the nicest Amazon e-readers you can buy. Highlights include a 7-inch, 300 ppi flush-front display, an adjustable warm light, and waterproofing.
The 8GB base model usually retails for $269.99, but Amazon will give it to you for just $189.99 this Prime Day — that’s a 30% savings and yet another record-low. It also comes with the same two Kindle Unlimited and ebook credit freebies.

Our pick: Kindle Kids (10th generation) 🔥
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
Featuring the same glare-free display and weeks of battery life as the standard model, the 10th-generation Kindle Kids is designed to help little ones develop healthy reading habits. It’s strictly an e-reader, so kiddos don’t have access to the internet or distracting games and ads — just a library of their favorite stories. Plus, there’s a built-in dashboard where parents can set educational goal and manage content like age filters, Bedtimes, and reading progress.
The Kindle Kids ships with a kid-friendly cover, a two-year worry-free guarantee, and a year’s worth of Amazon Kids+ (normally $4.99/month for Prime members), which unlocks access to tons of books at a variety of reading levels. Prime members can snag one on sale for just $49.99, which is half off its usual retail price of $109.99. Pro tip: You can save an extra $20 when you buy two by entering the code 2PACK at checkout.
