Christmas shopping for a bookworm this season?
Amazon just slashed the Kindle to its lowest ever price (was £105, now £79.99) for Black Friday. The retail giant also marked down the Kindle Paperwhite (was £159.99, now £124.99), Kindle Colorsoft (was £239.99, now £164), and Kindle Scribe (was £379.99, now £259.99).
A Kindle could be a great gift option for Christmas. It’s lightweight and portable, so you can carry thousands of books wherever you go. The glare-free display and adjustable front light make reading comfortable in any environment, day or night. Without notifications or apps to distract you, it offers a truly immersive reading experience.
Plus, when you trade in your old Kindle, even a broken one, you can get an additional 20% off on top of the Black Friday discount. For instance, the Kindle, which is normally £105, now costs £58.80 when you send in your old device. You can trade in your old Kindles for a discount towards all models, excluding the Kindle Scribe.
If you want to take advantage of this double discount, though, you'll need to hurry, as they'll both only be around for a limited time.

$239.99

The Kindle Colorsoft models deliver all the features you've come to expect from Kindle, but enhanced with a colour e-ink screen. That means you can browse book covers in vibrant colour within your library and experience the full visual impact of graphic novels and illustrated content. It should offer an enhanced, vibrant experience for your favourite stories.
For those who prefer dark mode, the Page Color feature inverts the traditional black text on a white background. This can be beneficial if you're eyes are sensitive to brighter lights.
These newer Kindle models also offer rapid page transitions, an adjustable warm light for comfortable reading, and battery life measured in weeks rather than days. This means you won't have to lug around an extra charger while on holiday.
Kindle Colorsoft has a waterproof design, so you can read worry-free in the pool or bath without the need for a case. And if you drop the Kindle Colorsoft into the sand after a long day of reading on the beach, or accidentally spill a drink over this compact 7-inch e-reader, you can simply rinse it off.
For avid notetakers, you can highlight passages in four different colours - yellow, orange, blue, and pink - and filter these annotations later for easy reference.
You can trade in your old device (even if it's broken) and get a brand new Kindle for an extra 20% off
