These Are The Best Kindle Deals Right Now (January 2025)

The Amazon Kindle is, in my opinion, one of the best e-readers ever created. I use it more than almost any other piece of technology except my phone—and even then, I often use the Kindle app! If you're hunting for a great Kindle deal, you're in luck: fantastic deals are still available to start the new year.

Several Kindle bundles are currently discounted. Our top pick is the Kindle Essentials Bundle, which is 9% off its $161.97 list price, bringing it down to $146.97. This bundle includes the latest Kindle (Matcha), a matching fabric cover, and a power adapter. See this deal and more below.

Why a Kindle Is Worth the Investment

I've used Kindles since the earliest models, and I prefer them to any other reading method. The e-ink technology allows for comfortable reading in any lighting conditions; the pages look like real paper. Power consumption is minimal, lasting weeks or even months on a single charge (especially in airplane mode).
