If you’ve been looking to pick up a Kindle, this is the time to do it. The Amazon Kindle is available for 15% off (that’s as little as $84.99 right now), and this early Prime Day Kindle deal will get you three months of free reading through Kindle Unlimited, just in time for your next beach reading session. You can even trade in your old Kindle and get an additional 20 percent off your purchase (in the form of an Amazon gift card).
The current Kindle deal is one of the best promotions we’ve seen on Amazon products leading up to the retailer’s upcoming shopping event. There’s just days to go until Amazon’s next Prime Day, which takes place on July 15 and July 17 — but it looks like the retailer has already dropped prices on some of its gear, including the Kindle Scribe (this Prime Day deal gets you $105 off at the time of this writing).
The Kindle is one of the best e-readers you can buy for travel and outdoor reading. It supports all of the most popular digital book formats, plus Audible audiobooks. Every title from your Audible library will be accessible on the Kindle, and you can stream them through a pair of Bluetooth headphones or speaker. The Kindle’s warm backlit screen makes it easy to read in the dark without turning on a desk-side lamp and the six-inch display now features thinner borders and a more grippy shell.

Beyond that, the Kindle has all of the same features that have made Amazon’s e-readers incredibly popular. Its e-ink screen doesn’t show glare in the sun like a phone or tablet; it can store hundreds of books (or dozens of audiobooks) on its 16GB drive, it’s as light and small as a standard paperback, and its battery can last weeks (no, really).
Need to stock up on reading material? You can get access to Amazon’s Kindle store on the device itself and this new Kindle deal gets you three free months of Kindle Unlimited, so you can read everything from books to magazines and more for free.
If you want a durable, long-lasting e-reader for casual reading and everyday use, the Amazon Kindle is an excellent choice. Add on the three free months of Kindle Unlimited, and you’re getting the best deal on one of the newest and best e-readers on the market, just keep in mind you’ll pay the standard $11.99 monthly subscription after the trial’s over.
