If you’re feeling bored because it’s too cold to go outside, here’s an e-reader deal that might help: Woot is selling a refurbished 2021 Kindle Paperwhite with 16GB of storage and ads for just $89.99 with a 90-day warranty, saving you about $60 off the latest model. New Woot customers can also score an additional $10 off when they use code FIRETENOFF at checkout until February 1st at 1AM ET, lowering the price further to $79.99.
It may no longer be Amazon’s newest Kindle Paperwhite, but the 2021 version is still one of my favorite Amazon e-readers. Unlike the entry-level Kindle, which starts at $109.99, it boasts IPX8 waterproofing so it’s perfect if you read in the bath. Its 300ppi display is sharp with adjustable color temperature, so you can read just as easily at night as you can during the day. The 6.8-inch e-reader also offers exceptional battery life, allowing you to read for months on a single charge. You can quickly charge it thanks to USB-C support.
There are trade-offs you’ll make buying the 2021 Paperwhite over the 2024 version, which starts at $159.99. The latest Paperwhite, for instance, is noticeably faster with a slightly larger 7-inch screen and richer contrast levels.
