Amazon Prime Day is happening now through June 26, offering discounts on tech accessories, Apple devices and smartwatches, with exclusive discounts for Prime members. The marketplace also has discounts on multiple Kindle Paperwhites, plus Kindle accessories that enhance the reading experience for as little as $8.
The Kindle Paperwhite is our go-to e-reader, beloved by several members of the NBC Select staff, and the Signature Edition is currently on sale for its lowest price ever.
The best Kindle Paperwhite Prime Day sales
NBC Select staff loves the Kindle Paperwhite, which is why it was our top overall pick for the best e-readers of 2026. Thanks to its 7-inch glare-free screen, you can read outside in direct sunlight, and you can adjust the brightness and hue for comfortable viewing at night. If you connect your Bluetooth headphones and sync your Audible account, you can even listen to audiobooks. Compared to earlier models, this one is 20% faster, with a battery life that lasts for weeks, according to the brand.
The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is currently on sale for its lowest price ever this Prime Day. In addition to a 7-inch screen that resists glare, this model also has wireless charging, 32GB of storage, 25% faster page turns, a battery that lasts for up to 12 weeks on a single charge and a front light that automatically adjusts depending on your environment, according to Kindle. Thanks to its waterproof design, you can also read worry-free by the pool, at the beach or in the bath.
If portability is your top priority, this model should be your pick — it’s the brand’s lightest and most compact Kindle e-reader. It weighs less than 6 ounces and has a 6-inch screen that practically fits in the palm of your hand, but it’s still packed with features. The display remains glare-free in direct sunlight and lights up in the dark, the battery lasts for up to six weeks on a single charge and the 16GB of storage holds thousands of books at once, according to the brand.
