Budget-minded book lovers no longer have to sacrifice key features to save money.
Amazon’s All-new Kindle brings its entry-level e-reader out of the dark ages. With the addition of glare-free, adjustable front lighting, it allows users a more comfortable reading experience day or night without having to spring for the higher-priced Kindle Paperwhite or the luxe Kindle Oasis.
The All-new Kindle replaces the 8th-generation Kindle e-reader and retains many of its slimmed-down specs. It does, however, introduce a few upgrades including improved E Ink technology and a capacitive touchscreen. With special offers—i.e., ads— enabled, it costs $89.99, a $10 increase over the prior generation. Without special offers it’s priced at $109.99.
