Both Kindle Paperwhite models are significantly discounted at record low prices, and your choice will depend on your individual preferences.

The new 16GB Kindle Paperwhite has had a $30 discount in Amazon's Black Friday sale, dropping its price from $159.99 to $129.99. This marks a discount of 19%, and is worth jumping on considering this Kindle only just released last month. It also marks its lowest-ever price, according to price tracker camelcamelcamel.

The Signature Edition also has wireless charging, and Amazon offers some simple and elegant charging stands to prop your Kindle Paperwhite next to the bed and keep it charged. You can get 12 weeks of reading if you're a casual, half-hour a day reader, but if books are your hobby, you want to charge more often.

If you're in the market for a new eBook reader, then you're going to enjoy this Kindle's wireless charging, auto-adjusting light, and weeks of battery life almost as much as the 23% discount.

The Kindle Paperwhite is like having a library in your pocket, minus the eye strain and distractions. What makes this one special is its 25% faster page turns and higher contrast display. It’s a lot like reading paper, but with a built-in booklight that actually adjusts to your environment.

Black Friday is the next big shopping event to come our way and hectic preparations are already underway at Amazon to make it a grand success. Not surprisingly, almost the entire Kindle range gets discounted during this time of the year.

If you are in need of a new Kindle then now is a very good time to go online shopping. Amazon has just launched its big Black Friday sale event and its famous e-readers have received some hefty discounts. Even the new entry-level Kindle and more impressive Kindle Paperwhite have been slashed in price despite only launching last month.
