The newest Kindle Scribe means there are now three digital notebooks you can buy in the $400 price range. Here's which one you should get. The final new Kindle Scribe, Amazon's e-reader that boasts digital notebook features and a larger screen, which was promised in 2025, has finally arrived. The Kindle Scribe Without Front Light ($430) was announced last year, but is available starting today. In the past, Amazon has launched a single version of the Kindle Scribe at a time.

Amazon's Kindle Scribe entered a saturated digital notebook market in 2022, competing with the likes of Kobo, ReMarkable, and Boox. But the first-gen Scribe had one leg over everyone else: It was also a Kindle. You couldn't annotate directly on ebooks, a standard feature most people would expect on a digital e-paper notebook. This has been rectified on the second-generation Kindle Scribe, and there are a couple of other additions like generative artificial intelligence features and a slightly redesigned Premium Pen stylus, which is now included. But the rest of the Scribe remains mostly the same. It's a great digital notebook for anyone who likes jotting stuff down on paper, and since it pulls double duty as an e-reader, you don't have to carry another Kindle.
