Listen up, readers. If you've been wanting a Kindle but have yet to buy one, now is the time. The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite is down to just $125. That's $25 off its usual $150 price, which saves you a little cash that you can use to buy ebooks for your new digital reader. You can save an additional 20% through Amazon's trade-in program. Act now if you want to get this price, though, because this is a Prime Day deal that will expire soon.

CNET's experts consider the standard Amazon Kindle Paperwhite to be the best all-around e-reader. It's laser-focused on essentials like a great reading experience, with adjustable warm backlighting, faster page turns and longer battery life. You'll also find USB-C charging, a welcome addition. 

The e-reader can also augment your audiobook listening, thanks to its built-in Bluetooth support, letting you connect it to a pair of headphones or speakers. It comes in three colors, so you can pick the one that best matches your style.
