E-book readers have been around for a long time, and even though a low-cost Android tablet can do pretty much all of the same things as a Kindle and a lot more, plenty of people still prefer the feel, simplicity, and especially the battery life of one of those good old fashioned Amazon-made devices.
We know, we know, that doesn’t sound very enticing, but for what it’s worth, the Kindle Voyage was by far the most sophisticated e-reader of its time. That’s obviously no longer the case, but at a measly $49.99, this bad boy is currently cheaper than an entry-level Kindle (2019).
Unfortunately, both cellular-enabled and “very good” devices are already out of stock, so you’ll need to make do with Wi-Fi connectivity only on your “good” refurb. When Woot eventually runs out of inventory for this model as well, you’ll be stuck with an “acceptable” unit at the same $49.99 price, so it’s probably a good idea to pull the trigger as soon as possible.
On the bright side, your 50 bucks will buy you a battery life measured in weeks rather than hours, pressure-sensitive bezels for effortless page turns, adaptive front light technology, and a highly portable design with a skinny 7.6mm profile. There are no sub-$100 tablets with all of that going for them, now, are there?
