Amazon Kindle Scribe Pen Featured 2

The evolution of the e-reader has changed: you don’t even need a dedicated e-reader device, as you can read a digital book on your phone or tablet. But if you’re only looking to read, take notes, and annotate PDFs, the Amazon Kindle Scribe with Premium Pen is the device for you.

Along with the glare-free Paperwhite display, you’ll get a Premium Pen. This allows you to jot down your thoughts, keep up with a daily journal, take notes in meeting, create sketches, etc. Make notebooks in the Kindle app, then export them to PDF to convert to text to easily send to your coworkers, friends, family, etc.

You can also take handwritten sticky notes on the books you read on the Kindle, reminding yourself later on about a special passage and what it may have meant to you. Also view documents and PDFs, then annotate them digitally, or apply sticky notes in Microsoft Word and other compatible document formats.

Let’s not forget, with all the great digital notebook features, that this is still a Kindle. You can read your choice of books on a large, high-resolution display. Day or night, you’ll read just as comfortably – and possibly through day and night, with the longest battery life on any Kindle. The display has an adjustable warm light and auto-adjusting front light. It also features larger font sizes, possibly allowing you to put the reading glasses down.

Take 28% off the 16GB device with Premium Pen, without Kindle Unlimited, and pay just $264.99. Also check out the pricing options with 32GB and 64GB, with the Basic Pen, and with three free months of Kindled Unlimited.
