This is TechRadar's dedicated page for Amazon Kindle deals. Here you'll find the cheapest Kindle deals for all of Amazon's e-readers. We crosscheck every model of Kindle with every retailer every day to pull in the best deals so that this page is always up to date with the cheapest prices.
You'll find the latest prices from a wide range of retailers for the latest Kindle e-readers. We've found the best prices on the basic yet impressive regular Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite and you'll also find the best deals on the more luxurious models of the Kindle Voyage and Kindle Oasis.
What makes a good Kindle deal?
If this is your first Kindle, you'll want to know how to tell a good Kindle deal when you see one. Luckily, there are so many good ones out there it's pretty easy!
The early Kindle e-readers don't have LCD screens or powerful internal components which means they're usually a lot cheaper than tablets and phones. The lack of a glass screen is fantastic for glare-free reading though and an immediate improvement over using the Kindle app on your phone or tablet.
The Kindle Voyage normally has a price of about US$220/£170/AU$299, so if you can get it for cheaper than that, you're onto a winner. After that, there isn't a huge difference in features, so it all depends how much you want to spend. If you can find the Kindle Paperwhite for under $120/£110/AU$169, you're getting a good price. With the new Kindle Oasis model arriving recently, we may see the older models' prices drop soon.
Here are the best Kindle deals currently available...
Kindle Oasis deals
The luxury e-reader you've been waiting for?
The new Kindle Oasis is out now and costs $290/£270/AU$449 for the basic Wi-Fi version. There's no avoiding the obvious, that's a lot of money for an e-reader. However, dedicated e-reader fans will appreciate the extra lightness and improved screen lighting. The considerably cheaper Voyage and Paperwhite models are excellent alternatives though. Have a look at our Kindle Oasis verdict for more information on why this is the future of Amazon's Kindle range.
Kindle Paperwhite deals
The best standard Kindle ever is a value-for-money winner
The 6th generation Kindle Paperwhite is the best standard Kindle yet, it's the most cost effective e-reader on the market and it easily beats the Kobo Aura on performance and design. Unlike the cheaper model, this one comes with screen lighting. Amazon has managed to create a fast e-ink tablet with inventive reading apps. You can lookup words in the dictionary without leaving your page, or even flick through any relevant Wikipedia entries for most words or terms. As far as value for money goes, this is the one to beat.
Amazon Kindle (2016) deals
The new 2016 Kindle (which some retailers are confusingly calling the ‘Kindle Touch 2016’, even though ‘Touch’ is now redundant, as all Kindles have touchscreens) is the updated version of the entry level Kindle last released in 2014. If you want the cheapest option, this is the one you should go for as the 2014 version has been discontinued and any deals you see are probably for preowned or refurbished units. With prices starting around £60/US$80/AU$110, you're getting a bargain. The 2016 model is also available in white (the 2014 was black only), it's lighter, thinner, has double the RAM speed and double the storage capacity at 4GB. The lack of a lit screen is the only thing holding it back really.
Kindle Voyage deals
A worthy runner up to the Oasis
The Voyage used to be the most expensive Kindle around before the Oasis arrived, but at least we're seeing the price drop now. Amazon's Voyage is one of the best ebook readers available. It's more compact than other Kindles and the screen is sharper than the cheaper models. A flush display makes the device easier to keep clean and carry around, the screen's resolution is the highest it has ever been, and it even comes with an ace origami-style case (at additional cost).
We check our Kindle deals every day to make sure they're always up to date and available!
