Amazon slashed its newest Kindle down to its best price yet for Prime Day

Yesss! The Amazon Kindle has finally dropped back down to its best-ever price, just in time for Prime Big Deal Days (also known as October Prime Day). If you’ve been waiting for a great deal on a Kindle, now’s the best time to jump on one with Amazon finally slashing the price of a standard Kindle down to just $84.99. That’s 23% off, man!

Kindles rarely go on sale because they’re so popular… and even when they do, those “sales” barely chip at the price. That’s why it’s extra nice to see the price dip by this much. The Kindle is a compact 6-inch tablet with a glare-free e-ink display that feels like you’re reading text on actual paper instead of a conventional screen. In fact, if the book’s good enough and you get lost in what you’re reading, you may even find yourself trying to turn the page the old-fashioned way (like I did).

This is the latest Kindle model and it’s one of the best e-readers on the market. The 300 PPI display delivers crisp text so it’s easy to read, and you can pinch the text to adjust font size on the fly, so it’s a great pick for both younger readers and older folks who need reading glasses. The device is also backlit, so you’ll be able to read even in the dark. And did I mention you get three months of Kindle Unlimited with it? That means unlimited access to millions of ebooks, like Netflix for readers.

If you’ve been thinking about getting a Kindle, there’s never been a better time. Grab the Kindle for just $84.99 and dive into your next great read! Or if you want an even better e-reader, consider the Kindle Paperwhite with its larger 7-inch screen and better lighting, which is on sale for $124.99 right now (22% off).
