Credit: Amazon Published Sep 17, 2026, 10:41 AM EDT Timi has been writing about technology for over a decade, focusing on smartphones, computers, and anything that he finds interesting in the tech space. He started writing for XDA, covering all things mobile, but has transitioned to covering deals, with a mission to shed light on some of the best discounts around the internet on the greatest tech products. Sign in to your XDA account The Kindle Scribe is an e-reader with a pen that lets you highlight, mark up books, and even create your own notes. While it's not the latest model, you can still get a Kindle Scribe at a good price on Woot, where you can buy a refurbished base model for $200. This is far below the original retail price when it first came out. Woot offers a 90-day warranty to cover any issues that might arise. Amazon Kindle Scribe This is the first Kindle from Amazon that also lets you take notes with a pen. Woot is offering a steep discount on refurbished models, making them worth taking a look. The details matter The Kindle Scribe features a large 10.2-inch, 300-ppi, front-lit Paperwhite screen with pen support. The reading experience is top-tier with little to no glare, and the pen experience feels like you're writing on paper. And this e-reader is still easy to travel with, measuring in at just 5.8mm thick. The Kindle Scribe also delivers great battery life, lasting a couple of months on a single charge. But perhaps most importantly, you get easy access to all the best books through the Kindle Store. It might not have the latest features of the current Kindle, but the software is still up to date and supported by Amazon. The 16GB model provides plenty of storage space for all your books. And if you need more, the 64GB model is also available for $250. And since this is from Woot, you'll want to act fast. Woot tends to sell out quickly when a deal is good. We think this will sell out quickly once it starts gaining traction. Again, it is a refurbished model that comes with a 90-day Woot warranty. If you're an Amazon Prime member, you'll get free shipping. Otherwise, you'll have to pay $6.
