Have you ever wanted to own the kind of tablet that serves double-duty as a user-friendly notebook? Well, dream no more, friend, as Amazon has marked down its amazing Kindle Scribe as part of its Prime Day tablet deals: While this sale lasts, you’ll be able to purchase the Kindle Scribe for $260. At full price, you’d be spending $370, which is a $110 discount for those keeping score. Part tablet, part e-reader, the Kindle Scribe can do it all, and it does it all well!

Why you should buy the Kindle Scribe

Just to be clear: This is the 16GB version of the Kindle Scribe with a Premium Pen and no Kindle Unlimited plan.

One of our favorite parts of the Kindle Scribe is its note-taking capabilities, which may sound pretty obvious for this type of tablet, but we’ve truly never experienced stylus haptics like this! All writing motions and gestures feel smooth, and it responds without hesitation, to the point where you’ll forget you’re even using a tablet!

At 10.2 inches wide, the Scribe screen delivers exceptional picture and responsive commands when used as both a tablet or an e-reader (check out our other best Kindle deals roundup!). When opting for the latter, you’ll be pleased with how clear and detailed the E Ink display can be. This is particularly useful when it comes time to scroll through a PDF document you’ve marked up.

You can also expect plenty of battery life from this bad boy: On a full charge, Amazon claims you’ll get weeks of usage before you need to plug the Scribe in. So whether you’re using it every day or once in a while, the Scribe will be ready!

We’re not sure exactly how long this deal will last, so we’d recommend taking advantage while you still can. Save $110 when you purchase the Kindle Scribe and take advantage of the Prime Day deals that keep on giving!

If you're on the hunt for internet deals because you want to replace your current connection or you want an additional network for your home, you may want to sign up for a Starlink subscription. Here's your opportunity: Today you can get the Starlink Standard Kit with a $200 discount from Best Buy, dropping the bundle's price to $300 from $500.

You have to act fast though, as we're not sure how much time is remaining on this bargain.

Why you should buy the Starlink Standard Kit
Before you proceed with buying the Starlink Standard Kit, you should first understand what is Starlink. It's a service that provides broadband-level internet access using a constellation of satellites in space, which you can connect to through a satellite receiver. Unlike other satellite internet services, Starlink's satellites operate at a lower orbit for faster speeds and better latency, for download speeds of between 50 and 150 Mbps and upload speeds of around 10 Mbps.
