About
No glare in bright sunlight
Unlike reflective tablet and smartphone screens, Kindle reads like paper.
Read comfortably with one hand
Lighter than a paperback, comfortably hold Kindle in one hand for those times when you can’t put the book down.
Charge monthly, not daily
The Kindle won't leave you tethered to an outlet. A single charge can last up to six weeks (based on a half hour of reading per day with wireless turned off and the light setting at ten).
Lose yourself in a book
By design, the Kindle is purpose-built for reading and creates a sanctuary so you can lose yourself in a book. Unlike tablets and phones, Kindle doesn’t distract you with social media, emails, and text messages.

Aren't ALL our picks staff picks?
Technically, yes. We have an entire team of good-looking and highly-skilled individuals on the payroll to do exactly that.
But these deals are different. These are the favourites. Of all the deals we've run since the beginning of time (or midway through 2010, if our origin story interests you), these are the ones we like just that liiittle bit more.
And, through the time-honoured tradition of paying money in exchange for goods and services, they can be your favourites too!
