Bibliophiles, here’s a great chance to add an e-book reader to your arsenal: Amazon has slashed the price of the 16GB model of the 11th-generation Amazon Kindle Paperwhite with a 23% discount. From its original price of $150, it’s down to its lowest price this year of $115, but this offer will only be available for a limited time. If you want to pocket the savings of $35, you’re going to have to hurry with your purchase as every minute that you delay increases your chance of missing out on this bargain.

Why you should buy the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

The 11th-generation Amazon Kindle Paperwhite is our choice for the best Kindle for most people. The ebook reader features a 6.8-inch glare-free display with a resolution of 300 pixels per inch, which creates an experience that looks like you’re reading on real paper, even when you’re under direct sunlight. The device comes with an adjustable warm light that shifts from white to amber though, which will make reading easier on the eyes at nighttime when you’re on your way to a restful sleep.

The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite features an IPX8 rating for water resistance, so you can keep reading beside the swimming pool or in the bathtub, and its battery can last up to 10 weeks from a single charge. You can store thousands of titles in this device so you’ll never run out of books to read, and you can easily add more to your digital library through the Kindle Store. You can also opt to sign up for Kindle Unlimited, which is a monthly subscription that grants access to more than a million ebooks, comic books, audiobooks, and magazines.

Whenever Amazon rolls out Kindle deals, you can be sure that the discounts will attract a lot of attention, and we expect the same for the discounted 16GB model of the 11th-generation Amazon Kindle Paperwhite. Instead of the ebook reader’s sticker price of $150, you’ll enjoy $35 in savings as you’ll only have to pay $115. The device at 23% off is a limited-time offer though, so you shouldn’t be wasting time thinking about it. If you think you’ll be able to make the most out of the 11th-generation Amazon Kindle Paperwhite, stop hesitating and completing your purchase as soon as possible.

Mint Mobile Memorial Day deal: 50% off 3 months of wireless

Mint Mobile

It can be really hard to choose a mobile service provider, especially if you're dissatisfied with the major players, like Verizon and T-Mobile. However, one of our favorites, Mint Mobile, is making it an easier choice with this deal that gives you 50% off for 3 months of its service. Normally, service is $30 per month (or $90 for the 3 months) but you can get it now for $15 per month with an upfront payment of $45 for the three months. That's really cheap for an unlimited plan like this. So, tap the button below to secure your order today (the best deal, that includes free Paramount+ Essential ends on 5/31) or keep reading for the most important details.

Why you should try Mint Mobile
Mint Mobile is considered on of the best MVNOs, or Mobile Virtual Network Operators, that you can try right now. These services use the reliable networks of the larger companies, but at their own renegade rates, giving you cheaper service. So, what's the catch? There's not really one if you're looking for affordable service. Your speed will slow down after the first 40GB of data you use a month, but this is a lot if you connect to WiFi at home (I've used just 10 GB of app data in the past 3 weeks).

The premium foldable smartphone may be yours for as low as $620, but you're going to have to hurry because we're not sure how much time is remaining before this offer is taken down.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5

It's fantastically fast as it's powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy processor and 12GB of RAM, and it has Android 13 with Samsung’s One UI 5.1.1 pre-loaded but you can upgrade to Android 14 right away to access the latest features of Google's mobile operating system.

Save up to $1,150 on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra today

Recent apps view on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra.

Tablets are great if you're the sort of person who doesn't want to lug around a laptop all the time and finds having a tablet an excellent alternative. If that's the case and you want to use a tablet as a laptop replacement, then you'll want to go for one of the best tablets on the market, such as the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. Luckily, there's a pretty substantial Memorial Day offer from Samsung that gives you a straight discount from $950 to $1,200, as well as up to $800 worth of trade-in credit. That means you could potentially get the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra for as low as $150, assuming you trade in a high-end tablet, although you're more likely to get half of that if yours is a couple of years old. Still, the original $250 discount plus another $400-$800 can be pretty substantial.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra
When we originally reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9, our conclusion was that it was a hard tablet to recommend, primarily because it was outrageously expensive, especially since the iPad Pro is cheaper. That said, with the discount and potential trade-in credit, the price isn't so bad, and some of the other excellent features start to stand out, such as the truly massive 14.6-inch screen, which is bigger than the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. Of course, that does come with its own problem, which is that it's pretty heavy to hold, especially for long periods, although if you use it with a case that has a stand, that issue can be substantially mitigated.
