Kindle Scribe 2024 (16GB) with Premium Pen
10.2" 300ppi display, 15.3 oz. NOT waterproof — that's the Paperwhite (/products/kindle-paperwhite-16gb). Includes Premium Pen (no charging required). 12-week battery reading, 3-week writing. USB-C. Active Canvas for notebook markup. 16GB fills up fast with work PDFs; consider 32/64GB for heavy PDF use. Some units have uneven frontlight or ghosting. The 16 vs 32/64 storage trap is real. Buy for PDF markup and notebooks. Skip for tub reading — that's the Paperwhite.
