The Kindle grants readers the freedom to enjoy an entire library of novels anywhere they go, right at the touch of a button. Amazon Kindle deals are rare, so Prime Day markdowns are big news!

When is Amazon Prime Day?

Those wondering when Prime Day takes place are in for a treat. The bi-yearly shopping event runs through July 11 and 12, 2023. During those dates, deals can be found on both the Prime Day page and regular Amazon deals page. Low prices aren’t limited to Amazon devices, either—shop hundreds of beauty deals, savings on pet supplies and even big-ticket items like mattresses on deep discount.

But the best savings aren’t available to everyone—shoppers can only score the biggest markdowns by being a Prime member. If you’re not already signed up for a free 30-day trial of Prime, now is the time to pull the trigger. While you’re at it, take advantage of a free trial of Kindle Unlimited, which grants readers access to thousands of books, audiobooks and magazines from the catalog.

FAQs

How does a Kindle work?

A Kindle is an eReader designed to digitally store hundreds of books. It’s ideal for readers who would rather not invest in more shelving for their fast-growing library. Expect the best Amazon Kindle deals to roll out during Amazon Prime Day and pick up a few—these eReaders make excellent gifts for book lovers!

What is Kindle Unlimited?

Kindle Unlimited is an Amazon subscription service that gives subscribers unlimited access to over two million titles. At $11.99 per month, it’s a steal—and unlike a library, late fees aren’t charged if a novel takes longer than planned to get through. Read more about the Kindle Unlimited program and check out Amazon’s Kindle Book Deals page.

Which Kindle should you buy?

Storage is the most important feature on a Kindle. For audiobook lovers, we recommend a higher storage capacity because audiobooks take up more space. For newer readers, a Kindle with a lower storage capacity does the job.

Where to buy a Kindle?

Kindles are available at several major retailers, but we recommend checking Amazon’s Kindle deals for exclusive savings on this flagship eReader.
