The perfect reading solution for holidays and travelling, rather than weigh down your suitcase with books, the Kindle, which is now on sale with 29 per cent off, comes with 8GB of storage, so it can store thousands of books in one place – like a small library at your fingertips.
And you won’t even need to buy any titles as it comes with a free three month trial of Kindle Unlimited, giving you free access to millions of fiction and non-fiction titles as well as the latest celebrity autobiographies.
A full battery charge lasts weeks, not hours so you only need to charge the Kindle before you go and it will last all vacation
While you may prefer the feel of a book, the Kindle has been designed to feel more comfortable to read than paperbacks. A 167 PPI glare-free display reads easily, even in direct sunlight.
The device comes with a free three month trial of Kindle Unlimited (auto-renewal applies), giving you access to millions of titles for free so you can change your reading material as soon as you get bored.
Slipping discreetly into your hand luggage and weighing just seven ounces, the compact device is made to be comfortable on the eyes.
A 167 PPI glare-free display reads like real paper, even in direct sunlight. And unlike books that need a torch to read in the darkness, you can adjust the brightness to read perfectly day or night.
With twice the storage of the previous generation, plus a single battery charge that lasts weeks, it’s no surprise the Kindle has received over 29,000 five-star ratings from shoppers.
‘Don’t know why I didn’t get one of these sooner,’ one five-star reviewer wrote. ‘So many books to choose from and loads even free. The battery is really good, and I like how it remembers where you got up to.
‘Very easy on the eyes as well as there is no glare. Would recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading.’
Another praised how easy it is to transport, writing: ‘It’s easy to setup and navigate. Feels lightweight but sturdy. Battery life seems reasonable too.
