Deal | Amazon has the Kindle Paperwhite in like-new condition for $107 (brand new is $160)

Amazon launched a new Kindle Paperwhite last October with upgrades such as a larger display with a higher contrast ratio than any other Kindle. It also brought along a 20% increase in performance and faster page turns.

Since its launch, the Kindle Paperwhite (12th Generation) has received a handful of price cuts with the lowest price being $129.99, $30 off its launch price of $159.99 (with ads). Now, Amazon has an amazing deal on the Kindle Paperwhite, and it is unarguably its best yet.

Amazon currently has the Kindle Paperwhite down to an unbelievably low price of $106.99. Not only is this a significant discount from its original price of $159.99, it also makes it cheaper than the standard Kindle which sells for $109.99. However, there's a catch.

The Kindle Paperwhite available for $106.99 isn't a brand new model but a certified refurbished model which Amazon describes as “like-new”. According to the listing, this unit has been “refurbished, tested, and certified to look and work like new”. It also comes with the same limited warranty as a new device.

As a matter of fact, the only way you may not be able to tell it is brand new is because certified refurbished Amazon devices may ship in generic Amazon-branded boxes. Save for the packaging, this is practically a new device.

The discount is available across all three color options which are Black, Jade, and Raspberry, so you are not limited to a particular color. Although it is important to mention that this is the ad-supported version and it doesn't come with Kindle Unlimited.

Nevertheless, for $106.99, you get the latest Kindle Paperwhite which has a 7-inch screen with an adjustable display light (white to amber), 16GB of storage, an IPX8 waterproof rating, and a battery that can last up to 12 weeks on a single charge.
