Go to the trade-in page first and unload an older kindle or echo device. Even if all you get is $5 you'll also get a 20% off credit to apply to bring this even lower.

Would never buy a Kindle again after they pulled all the crap they did with the old Kindle by disabling them, and they're still working perfectly fine!

The color will be better on an iPad but I find eink much easier on my eyes. Reading for a few hours on an iPad or phone leaves my eyes tired in a way eink doesn't. It's also nice how long the battery lasts; I charge my b&w one monthly at most. If I leave my iPad on the counter unused for a week I come back to find it dead. Eink is also a lot lighter to hold up if you're laying down.

Did exactly this. With the trade-in value of my 2018 kindle ($20) and the 20% off a new device, total price came down to $136.91.

I traded in my old kindle, but the 20% discount was not applied. I contacted Amazon customer service. They said they will do the 20% refund once my trade-in kindle is received.

Is this better than just using my old iPad (2021)?

Here are the release dates for all the Kindles. Seems like they release every 2-3 years. Take it for what it's worth. With a trade-in of an older device and the additional 20% off a new kindle, this is a great deal.

Do we think Signature Edition will have a similar price drop? With Prime Day so soon, I'm not sure if I want to pull the trigger now and use the quarterly trade in slot...

Traded in a bunch of old kindle fires and echos. Pretty seamless dropping off at while foods.

As for the colorsoft. Do not expect the colors to pop like an iPad. It's e-ink display, so they are pretty bland, as designed. Decent deal, especially if you can get the 20% off with a trade in.

I'm not thrilled about Amazon forcing customers with older Kindles to buy a newer device. Doesn't make me want to reward them for that kind of greedy move.

Seems like a great price, but can't decide if I'd pay more for Signature to get the wireless charging

This might be a dumb question, and I know that ebooks are not that big, but is 16GB enough?
