While the Kindle Paperwhite excels at delivering a premium reading experience, it offers even more than just books. With Kindle Unlimited, you can access over 2 million titles and thousands of audiobooks with a subscription. Additionally, pairing it with Bluetooth headphones or speakers allows you to listen to your favorite audiobooks hands-free.

If you want a Kindle Paperwhite without ads, you’d typically have to pay $169.99 for the privilege. Thankfully, though, the Kindle Paperwhite Kids offers a way around that, making it a great e-reader for the whole family.

As of Oct. 8, the Kindle Paperwhite (16GB) is on sale for $124.99, down from the normal price of $149.99. That's a 17% discount or a savings of $25, which gives you some funds to start your Kindle book collection right away.
