It's also worth mentioning that some of the older versions of the Amazon Kindle are soon to have its internet connectivity removed which... GASP... means no more new books!

We've also included some buying advice, and if you're looking for something a little more media-intensive, with a colour screen and a choice of apps, check out our best Amazon Fire tablet deals guide.

How to buy the best Amazon Kindle

The main benefit for purchasing a Kindle, over using the Kindle app on your phone or tablet, is the reduced glare of the screen. The lack of glass on the Kindle prevents screen reflection, allowing you to enjoy reading anywhere. 

Plus, because the Kindle ereaders don't have LCD screens or powerful internal components, they're a lot cheaper than tablets and phones. As an added bonus, the battery is going to last you a lot longer too.

If you're looking for a standard Kindle you can usually find this cheapest model with occasional discounts. Those after something at the mid-range should go for the Kindle Paperwhite, while the Kindle Oasis is brilliant if you want to spend some more money.

The best Kindle Oasis deals

The best e-reader that doubles up as an e-writer

The Kindle Scribe was released in late 2022 and is a large e-reader that doubles up as an electronic notepad. While it won't be for everyone, the Kindle Scribe is great for those who will use it for all its writing, reading and doodling functions. It's the priciest Kindle on the market so that's definitely worth considering before adding to your basket. Check out our Kindle Scribe review for more details.

The best of the best for the serious reader 

There's a lot to love about the Kindle Oasis, and dedicated e-reader fans will appreciate the extra lightness and improved screen lighting. But you'll definitely pay a premium for this luxury. Have a look at our Kindle Oasis review for more on why this is the future of Amazon's Kindle range. If you can't quite stump up the cash, then the Paperwhite and standard models are excellent alternatives.

Super value-for-money

This robust Paperwhite Kindle is the best of its kind yet, and it's the most cost effective e-reader on the market. 

Kindle Page Flip enables you to skim through an e-book without losing your place, while the Smart Lookup gives dictionary definitions of words as well as Wikipedia explanations. It's packed with fantastic features.  

Based on performance and design it easily beats rivals like the Kobo Aura, and it now comes with a built-in front light too.

The cheapest option is also one of the newest

If you're looking to pick up a Kindle then go for the standard, cheapest Kindle. It's the model with the lowest resolution and an older design, but it's fantastic value for money and now comes with a built-in front light.

The latest model is now available in white or black, doubles the RAM speed over the original Kindle ereader put out by Amazon, and has a perfectly respectable 4GB of storage space. It's the cheapest Kindle you can get.
