If you're after the best Kindle for you, we've got a list of each version you can buy right now to help talk you through exactly what you should look for when purchasing an Amazon ereader.
Below you’ll find our guide to all the best Kindles available, and if none catch your eye, don’t forget that there are other brands of ereaders too – check out our best ereader guide for those.
Still, Amazon has done a good job of making sure there’s a Kindle suited to almost everyone, while still keeping its range relatively simple, as the only distinct models are the Amazon Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite, and Kindle Oasis.
They’re each suited to different users, with the basic Kindle being ideal for casual readers who don’t want to spend much, while the Kindle Paperwhite benefits from a sharper screen and a waterproof build (making it ideal for beach and bath reading), and the Kindle Oasis is a truly premium ereader, for those who devour books.
Beyond picking one of those three models there are also other considerations, such as storage capacity, connectivity options, and more. Below we’ll help you get your head around all of that and find the best Kindle for you.
Amazon Kindle
The best Kindle for those on a budget
Screen size: 6-inch | Screen type: Pearl e-paper | Storage: 4GB | Resolution: 167ppi | Weight: 161g | Backlight: yes | Touchscreen: yes | Wi-Fi: yes | 3G: no | Battery life: up to four weeks
The entry-level Amazon Kindle is the best Kindle you can by right now, with a great balance of features and price.
Launched in March 2019, its new feature was the inclusion of a back-light which now means Amazon's entire Kindle line come with illumination.
You still get the benefits of the previous model, with an adequate (and now back-lit) touchscreen display, long lasting battery and plenty of space for all your digital tomes, plus an intuitive interface, that makes navigating your books a breeze.
It's slim and light, so even though you could essentially be carrying an entire library with you it won't even feel as weighty as a single paperback.
Why should I buy it? Because you want a bargain and can live without waterproofing, the latest design and a higher resolution display.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite
It's all about that screen
Screen size: 6-inch | Screen type: E ink | Storage: 4GB | Resolution: 300ppi | Weight: 209g | Backlight: yes | Touchscreen: yes | Wi-Fi: yes | 3G: yes | Battery life: up to six weeks
Amazon updated the Kindle Paperwhite back in 2018 to add several features from the Voyage and Oasis lines, including IPX8-rated waterproofing and support for Audible audiobooks.
The screen is still fantastic with a beautiful 6-inch HD display with 300ppi pixel density and 8GB of storage, meaning you can keep thousands of books on one device.
The Kindle Paperwhite is almost the closest you can get to real paper while getting all the benefits of an ereader. You have access to Amazon's huge library of books and you can even use the Kindle Unlimited rental service on the Paperwhite.
There's a built-in light and you're not going to get any screen glare when reading it in bright sunlight. The battery isn't as good as the last version as it only lasts between four and six weeks, but that said it's still a very good amount of time to get reading your ebooks.
Why should I buy it? If you're looking for one of the best screen experiences on an ereader and you want to be able to read in bright sunlight, the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite is your choice.
