When it comes to e-readers, Amazon Kindle is undoubtedly the most popular brand out there. There are several models, but they all have a few things in common – they are lightweight, easy to use and give you access to many books. Now, during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, you can get Kindle e-readers for up to 37 percent off.

The Kindle Paperwhite has a glare-free screen that makes it easy to read in any environment — even in bright sunlight. NBC Select tech reporter Harry Rabinowitz appreciates the long battery life (a single charge lasts 12 weeks) and how you can choose between a warm or cool tone of screen brightness.
This is Amazon’s first color e-reader and is perfect for anyone who uses comic books, graphic novels or cookbooks on an e-reader. Like the Paperwhite, it also gives you the ability to change the tone of the screen. The battery is shorter on the Colorsoft than on the Paperwhite, though – a full charge takes eight weeks.
One of the most expensive models that Kindle makes, the Scribe is currently on sale at its lowest price ever. Along with reading, you can use this device to take notes. It comes with a stylus that attaches to the side of the Writer and you can easily edit your notes and send them to your phone or computer. One thing to note: The Scribe is about a pound heavier than other Kindle models (so you might want to balance it out).
Aimed at kids, this Colorsoft model comes with a 12-month subscription to Amazon Kids+, which gives your little ones access to thousands of ad-free books, movies and television shows for kids. It also comes with your choice of kid-friendly covers (fantasy or starlight motif) and there are parental controls that allow you to restrict content or set time limits on how long they can use the device.
