Amazon's new Kindles are at a slight discount ahead of Black Friday
SAVE UP TO $60: Amazon's latest Kindles are seeing some of their first discounts. Find the Kindle Scribe bundled with a cover and power adapter for $479.97, saving $60 for 11% off.
While Black Friday falls at the end of November, retailers aren't waiting to cut prices. Best Buy is running deals all months long, while brands like Apple have a smattering of deals across the internet. Amazon is also joining in on the fun, launching sales on their own devices like Echos and more.
Amazon has a knack for launching new devices around Prime Day, so it was no surprise when they dropped a new batch of Kindles post-October Prime Day. We've tested our way through the latest models, and they're improving upon already great tech for the fastest, brightest Kindles yet.
Because these items are so new, we don't expect to see amazing discounts — and that's exactly the case here. Ahead of Black Friday, there are some deals on Kindles to be had, but they're conservative so far: up to 11% off bundles only.
Here are the best Kindle deals to shop ahead of Black Friday. Check back for better deals as the big shopping day approaches.

Why we like it
Among the new Kindles is a redesigned Scribe, which comes in classic black or a flashy metallic jade and won't be officially available until Dec. 4. The new Scribe's screen got a makeover with added white borders to give it a more notebook-like feel. If the new model is anything like the current one, I'm excited to see what it offers.
If you're an annotator, the Kindle Scribe is the e-reader for you. The matte screen feels like writing on paper, and includes a notebook section so you can take notes in addition to annotating your e-books. Personally, I like writing with the Kindle Scribe far more than I do with an iPad and Apple Pencil.
This deal gives you a little extra off ahead of the Scribe's December release. The Essentials Bundle comes with the device, premium pen, folio-style case, and power adapter — everything you need to get started. Normally $539.97, you can find the bundle for $479.97, saving you $60 for 11% off.
