I'm really tempted.
I currently have the regular kindle from 2021 but I use it so much (usually a book a week) that I think it's worth it to upgrade.
There was a really good deal last year that I missed out on but this also seems like a good deal overall since I can get the 20% off and $20-30 for my current one.

You will do best to google which model of old kindle you want to compare to the new one. There are so many variations, and tons of video reviews and reddit chats to detail the differences. Some of the differences are really minor, esp considering which old version you have (if you have one already).

Kindle (Base version) comparison with prev gen.
  • Faster processor
  • Quick page turns with minimal ghosting
  • Different colors
Kindle Paperwhite comparison with prev gen.
  • Faster processors with quick page turn and minimal ghosting
  • Wireless charging
  • Yellow colorbar at the bottom of the screen (apparently for bad QA of Amazon)
That's why I think if you want to get a new one, get a base version of the kindle. Amazon mentioned they are working on this "yellowing" issue, and will fix this using an "update".
This is a nice table which compares all of the kindles in one go: https://comparisontabl.es/kindle-e-readers/

There are a lot of quality control concerns with these newer Kindle versions. Screen issues, backlight inconsistencies between units, etc. I was thinking of upgrading my old 5th Gen Kindle from 2013. But after reading reviews and seeing reports of these issues, I'm looking at the Kobo Clara instead.

Last year I got a kindle kids paperwhite for myself for $105 (no trade-ins or anything needed to get this price).

I was planning on getting my kids the same paperwhite kids as I got for this Christmas but see that they have changed the model and that the "sale" price is $140. Huge difference in just one year.

TBF this new model is faster and worth more than the previous gen. I suspect it will drop a bit cheaper in sales here and there sometime in Q1 of 2025.

I've got to decide whether to get it now or wait. I'd already sent in an old device to have a 20% off trade in code waiting for BF, and that's probably going to expire before this price drops a little lower in some sales next year. But then again, I'm lousy with old amazon crap to trade in and have other things I could trade later if I wait.

Looks like since there are tons of issues with the new paperwhite and the color kindle (yellow bars on the screen) I'm just going to get my kids both regular kindle kids. Wish they had the warm white light though...

I've heard of issues with the colorsoft (which I don't want to buy), but not the regular paperwhite. I'll have to look into that. If there are, then I'd rather wait for them to work out the bugs.

I am looking into the Kindle kids. what i am seeing is that they reduced the device cost by about $30 but also reduced the free Kindle Kids+ subscription from 12 months to 6 months. That subscription is about $6 a month, so 6 months would be $36.
I know I don't have to keep the subscription but getting this for $30 less and still having the 12 months free would have been a slick deal indeed!!

They just came out with this newest generation so all the prices are jacked up.
