Mother’s Day is almost here, and it is hardly surprising that Amazon offers a discount on its Kindle range of devices. All the Kindle devices are now on sale, so you have plenty of choices when choosing the best gift for your beloved mother this year. From the big and pricey Kindle Scribe to the more pocket-friendly basic Kindle and the Kindle Paperwhite, you can have it all at discounted rates.
Amazon always sells bundle deals, which are more expensive than buying the device outright. They tend to bundle a case, a charging brick, and other goodies, but they are not worth the full price. The best deals right now are for the Amazon Kindle Scribe 2024 version. This is one of the best e-notebooks on the market, offering a 300 PPI screen and a tremendous drawing experience. Many buy this to read e-books, since the large screen fits lots of text.
If you are looking for a premium e-reader, the Kindle Colorsoft is back on sale. This device was heavily discounted last month when Amazon had a two-week book sale. The Colorsoft is one of the best color E-ink products. It makes reading comics, manga, graphic novels, and magazines amazing. Non-fiction titles like textbooks, cookbooks, and gardening also look better on a color screen than a traditional black-and-white e-paper display.
Here are the deals available on each device.

Kindle Paperwhite
The latest Kindle Paperwhite and the Signature Edition represent two of Amazon’s most popular e-readers. The Paperwhite is one of the world’s best handheld digital reading products. The screen is 300 PPI and uses the latest E INK Carta 1300 e-paper display, which makes fonts look razor sharp. This version of the Paperwhite is the Kids one, which comes with a free case and a two-year warranty. Visually, the Signature Edition looks the same. However, it has an ambient light sensor to adjust the screen’s brightness and support quick-charging automatically. The only dedicated Paperwhite and Sig Editions are Bundle deals. The deals range from 19% off to almost 30% off.

With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
