The latest version of the Kindle Scribe, an upgraded version of the classic e-reader designed for note-taking, came out in December 2024, offering some nice upgrades that make the device more pleasant to use. Those upgrades don’t come cheap, however, with prices on the new Kindle Scribe starting at $399.99.

Right now, though, a refurbished (like-new) 16GB version is discounted to $269.99, the lowest price this reader has seen since its release, according to price-tracking tools, and a great opportunity to snatch one for a bargain. The 32GB version is going for $282.99 (originally $419.99 for a new version), and the 64GB version is $305.99 (originally $449.99 for a new version).

The original Kindle Scribe first came out in 2022; that version is currently $369.99 for the 16GB model with the Premium Pen, which puts how good a deal this is in perspective: You can get the three-years-newer model for less.

If you already have the 2022 version, there is no compelling reason to upgrade—the main difference is that the 2024 version comes with the Premium Pen instead of the Basic Pen stylus, while the tablet itself is shorter, narrower, and slimmer, but not by much (you can even still use the same case). The new screen also has texture, which will add some resistance when you’re writing on it, for a more natural feel. The gap between the screen and the outer casing is also smaller. But that’s where the differences end.

Otherwise, you’ll get the same book format compatibility, the same 15.3 oz weight, the same glare-free 300 ppi front-lit display screen, and the same 12-week battery life. Both tablets run the same software. Still, if you don’t own a Scribe at all and are considering getting one, the newer version is the better option, especially since it is currently cheaper than the older version.
