I love my (admittedly last-gen) Kindle Paperwhite, but even though I know its 6.8-inch screen isn't actually that much smaller than most paperback pages, I still sometimes feel like I have to squint to read it. Maybe it's my fault for seeing it as more of a tablet than an out-and-out digital book, but I do sometimes feel tempted to read on my iPad instead and just put up with the glare. Luckily, Amazon does make a bigger Kindle, and now it's on sale.

The Kindle Scribe is Amazon's only e-note, meaning it's intended more for writing on than reading with, but it will work for both. It can access your entire Kindle library, and thanks to its 10.3-inch screen, text and images do feel like they have more room to breathe on it. This can be especially good for comics (although, the black-and-white screen might make you want to stick to manga) and articles, and I've been tempted to upgrade for that reason alone before.

The problem was the price, which is normally a little steep at $400. Starting at $325 with this sale, though, it's suddenly a much more attractive prospect.

And that goes double when you take into account the Kindle Scribe's intended use case. It comes with a stylus that lets you mark up PDFs and jot down notes in either your own documents or in dedicated boxes in existing books, and Amazon says it's retuned this model to have a more paper-like feel when writing on it. Yes, there is AI here too, although it's fairly unobtrusive—when you're done handwriting a note, you can have the Scribe quickly summarize it, "refine" it, or reconfigure it into a digital font, if you like.

There are arguments to be made for other e-notes despite all this functionality—my colleague, Joel Cunningham, recently reviewed a similar device, the Boox Note Air 4C, that has a color screen and can run Android—but if you're already in the Kindle ecosystem, this Scribe sale could make for a handy little upgrade.
