Amazon has only just announced its Prime Day 2022 dates – which kicks of on July 12 – meaning we might see record low prices on the company's own devices, including its ereaders.
The Kindles are some of the best ereaders on the market and, with the new 2021 edition of the Kindle Paperwhite, the mid-range offering has had a major overhaul. It's a far better ereader than the older versions, and bigger too. The improvements, however, have also meant its asking price has been bumped up from AU$199 (the RRP of the 10th-generation Paperwhite, no longer available) to AU$239.
So, if you're after a seriously good Kindle, and it's discounted, you really should jump at it – Amazon's slashed AU$40 off the RRP of both the latest Kindle Paperwhite and the base Kindle, the latter being a great option for anyone on a budget.
That's not all, though. Alongside Amazon giving you a way to save money on the hardware, you can also save on the ebooks you want to read by signing up for a Kindle Unlimited subscription.
New customers signing up for this ebook subscription service usually get a 30-day free trial, after which is costs AU$13.99 per month. Now, however, Amazon is extending that 30-day free trial a full three months, but you will need to be a first-time customer of course.
