Amazon is discounting several Kindle models for Prime Day 2026, which runs from June 23 through June 26 worldwide [1, 2, 3]. The 16GB Kindle Paperwhite is reduced to $124.99, matching its lowest-ever price [1, 4]. It features a 7-inch glare-free display with adjustable lighting including dark mode, is waterproof, and has a battery life of up to 12 weeks. One reviewer said, "I've taken mine on several week-long vacations and didn't even bring a USB cord with me" [1]. Another called it "the Kindle I recommend to most people because it gets all of the important things right" [4]. The Paperwhite Signature Edition with 32GB storage and wireless charging is also on sale for $144.99 [4].
Amazon is also offering the 16GB Kindle Colorsoft for $159.99, marking its lowest price yet from a previous $249.99. The Colorsoft has a 7-inch high-contrast color display optimized for digital comics, waterproofing, and battery life up to 8 weeks [2, 3]. The Kids Edition is on sale for $179.99, down from $269.99, and includes a case, no ads, and an Amazon Kids+ subscription trial. One reviewer said, "While at full price this Kindle doesn't seem worth it, at $180, it's a great deal" [3].
The Paperwhite and Colorsoft share screen size but differ in display: Paperwhite is black-and-white only, while Colorsoft supports color [1, 2]. Neither device includes a case or cover in the sale price [2]. New subscribers purchasing the Paperwhite also receive three months of Kindle Unlimited free [1].
Prime Day 2026 discounts on Kindle devices will continue through June 26.
