With the Scribe and its included stylus (either a basic or a premium pen, which has an additional button for highlighting and a dedicated eraser), you can start up digital notebooks that save in the cloud, take notes while reading or scribble all over PDF files. And, with its huge 10.2-inch screen, we wouldn’t recommend it if you’re not interested in using its notetaking functions. The latest addition to Amazon’s range, this is the first device from the brand that’s designed for both reading and writing. Battery life: Up to six weeks based on 30 minutes of reading a dayįor some readers, the Scribe is the ideal Kindle.But after testing it out for a couple of weeks side-by-side with the old model, we’d say the advancements are evident – and worth the extra cash. One thing to note is that this one costs a bit more than the basic Kindle that it replaces. We looked to GH’s Books Editor for novel recommendations and enjoyed reading through London, With Love on the new device. We can confirm that it feels feather-light to hold, and it’s ideal if you think the bigger model could be a bit cumbersome. It comes in a noticeably smaller form factor than the previous version, with Amazon boasting that it’s the “lightest and most compact Kindle”, and it has a bigger storage capacity too.
Why we like it: We love the upgraded screen and longer battery life that Amazon just added to the new entry-level Kindle. The only thing it lacks that the more expensive Kindles have is its waterproofing.
Amazon used to sell its most basic model without a backlight or high-resolution screen, but it now has both a great backlight and a sharp display.
Not only is this the best small Kindle, but it’s also the best Kindle for under £100. Who this is for: If you want a straightforward and small ebook reader that does all the essentials, this new one is what we’d recommend.
