We’re onto day two of Prime Big Deal Days, and the Kindle deals are holding strong.
Amazon loves to keep us on our toes. I’ve been covering Prime Day and testing Kindles for years, and one thing I’ve come to expect is great deals on Amazon’s own devices during the sale event — except Kindles. During July Prime Day, neither the Paperwhite nor Paperwhite Signature Edition got a price cut.
So it was a pleasant surprise to wake up on Oct. 7 and see the entire Kindle line-up on discount. Amazon’s e-readers are extremely popular, and because of that, the retailer tends to be choosy about its sales on Kindles.
Every Kindle e-reader is discounted during October Prime Day, and not only that — multiple devices have hit their lowest price ever.
Here are all of the best Kindle deals to shop during day two of Prime Big Deal Days.
Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 denote an all-time low price.
Best Kindle deal
Why I like it
Historically, the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition hasn’t been my top pick, due to its $200 price tag, which even its bonus features couldn’t justify. October Prime Day swept in and dropped the price of the Signature Edition down to $149.99. That saves you $50 off its $199.99 price tag for 25% off. And did I mention that’s its lowest price ever?
Not only does this bring the Signature Edition to its lowest price ever, but it also makes it $10 cheaper than the standard Paperwhite — although we should note that also just hit its lowest price ever.
The biggest perk of the Signature Edition is its ad-free lock screen. Usually, I don’t think it’s worth the extra money, but with this record discount, I think it’s an incredible value. For $149.99, you’ll enjoy auto-adjusting brightness, 12 weeks of battery, wireless charging, and 32GB of storage.
If you’re going to buy a Kindle during October Prime Day, let it be the Signature Edition. However, if you have your heart set on another model, plenty are also at their lowest prices.
Best Colorsoft deal
Why I like it
In the past few weeks, it’s never been more apparent how Amazon is investing in its color e-readers. On Sept. 30, the brand launched its redesigned Kindle Scribe that now comes with color.
Similar to Amazon’s Paperwhite versus Paperwhite Signature Edition, the retailer has a Colorsoft and Colorsoft Signature Edition. Right now, the Colorsoft Signature Edition has received its biggest price cut ever, bringing it down to $209.99. That knocks $70 off its $279.99 list price, for 25% off.
Similar to the Paperwhite Signature Edition, it comes with 32GB of storage, auto-adjusting brightness, an ad-free lockscreen, but it gets the exciting addition of color, too. The color accuracy on the Colorsoft Signature Edition is impressive. While the colors are more muted than they’d read in a physical book, they still remain accurate.
So if you’re ready to dive into Amazon’s color e-reader line-up, Prime Big Deal Days is the time to do so. Get the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition for $209.99 and save $70.

Best deal for Kindle users
Why we like it
If you’re buying a new Kindle during Prime Big Deal Days, we highly recommend signing up for this deal on Kindle Unlimited. During Prime Day, Amazon is offering three months free, saving you $35.97.
Kindle Unlimited is one of the best ways to maximize your Kindle use. If you’re running out of holds and loans on Libby, then for $11.99 a month, you can access Kindle Unlimited and borrow up to 20 books at a time. The library is massive and features bestsellers and BookTok sensations.
Mashable Deals
The best part is, this deal is available to new users and those who have already used their free trial. I’d already used up my free trial, but I was able to snag the trial again and am planning on using it to read Regretting You by Colleen Hoover and The Housemaid by Frieda McFadden before their upcoming movie adaptations.
