And what is it about the Kindle Paperwhite that made it stand out as the best overall pick? Mashable’s Samantha Mangino says in our roundup of the best Kindles that it “turns pages without stuttering, never slowing down when you’re in the thick of the action.” On top of that, “The screen’s front light is vibrant and has adjustable brightness, meaning it can adjust when transitioning from reading in the sun or shade.”
The Kindle Paperwhite is also, “Lightweight and fits comfortably in small crossbody bags. Plus, it’s waterproof, keeping it safe against poolside vacations and spilled water bottles in bags.” Not to mention, it has a beefy battery life that can last up to 12 weeks. That’s perfect for bookworms hoping to cruise through their digital library this summer.
Again, this deal ends after today. Be quick to make a move on this offer on the Kindle Paperwhite 16GB at Amazon before the deal is done for good.
