The Kindle is probably one of Amazon's best-known devices and is responsible for kickstarting the e-reader revolution. I've been using Amazon's e-ink gadget since the beginning and have gone through many different generations of the best Kindles.
And with Amazon's Prime Day deals now finished for another year, you may think the best time to buy a Kindle is past. Well, not quite. Even though the discounts aren't as plentiful, Amazon keeps deals alive past the closing date for Prime so there are still some special offers on a few Kindle models to consider.
For example, Amazon is offering the excellent Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition for $237 right now. That's a $20 discount on the 32GB Kindle Paperwhite edition that comes with a fancy fabric cover and charging dock.
What's more, Amazon is also offering 3 months of Kindle Unlimited membership for free as well. That's a saving of $36 right off the bat and the perfect way to compliment a new Kindle purchase.
You can also stay right up to date on the good deals still to be had by following our Prime Day live blog right here.

Prime Day Kindle deals
As I said at the start, my favorite deal so far is probably the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition. The Kindle Paperwhite features a 6-inch display that’s flush with the device, giving the e-reader a sleek and uniform look. That glare-free display is a sharp 300 ppi that’s perfect for reading novels (I'm currently mid-way through Joe Abercrombie's debut: "The Blade Itself" — which you can get for $9 or free on Kindle Unlimited) outside under direct sunlight.
If you're more of a bedtime reader, the five LED front lights also provide a handy glow for a darker environment. This model comes with 32GB of storage. That's more than enough for keeping an entire virtual library inside a device smaller and lighter than your average paperback.
As well as the aforementioned Kindle Unlimited, you can also take advantage of Whispersync which will synchronize your reading across any Kindle device you own. It'll also include the Kindle app if you use that on your phone.
If you’re in the market for an e-reader, this is the device I would personally recommend to everyone. These bundles are a great way to grab devices and accessories in one go. Keep an eye on our ever-evolving Prime Day hub for those deals still available.
