AMAZON has unveiled a new version of the Kindle – with a stylus for the first time – at a special event happening right now.
The hi-tech e-reader lands just in time for Christmas – and will be high on shopping lists for Black Friday 2023.

New Kindle Scribe
It lands about a year after the 11th-gen Kindle.
And it comes 15 years after Amazon first began selling devices with its original Kindle in the US.
But unlike any Kindle before it, this new Kindle Scribe model lets you interact with a stylus.
It’s got a 10.2-inch 300ppi display that Amazon says fits more words than ever.
Amazon has made the device svelte at 5.8mm, and includes Basic and Premium pen options.
The new Premium Amazon stylus pen has a dedicated eraser, a shortcut button, and attaches magnetically to the exterior of the device.
The Basic pen doesn’t include the eraser button or shortcut button.
Amazon wants you to create to-do lists, write journals and take notes using the Scribe stylus.

The pen doesn’t need charging, which gives it a small advantage over a stylus like the Apple Pencil.
The Kindle has a Paperwhite display that’s front-lit and “glare-free”.
It’s available for £329.99/$329.99 on pre-order today and will ship later this year.
