Sporting a lower price, a better high-contrast e-Ink screen and a much slimmer design, the new generation of the Amazon Kindle comes in built-in wi-fi and double the storage. Other features include a much better battery and the same 6″ screen size but much smaller bezels around the screen.

Kindle is our #1 bestselling item for two years running. It’s also the most-wished-for, most-gifted, and has the most 5-star reviews of any product on Amazon. Now it’s even better.
