There’s a lot to say about the differences between paper books and ePaper books. Paper books give us extra senses of touch and book-depth to increase memory, and (I think) even Digital Trends writers are allowed to say that the time away from a screen is pretty great. But what if there was a paper-saving, super notetaking, and even discounted eBook that was debatably better than a regular physical book? Well, then we’d have to talk about it.
The latest Amazon Kindle Scribe is one of the best eReaders for notetakers, and you can get one with 64GB of storage for just $365 (or 20% less with a trade-in) right now. This Amazon Big Spring deal brings it down $85 from $450, at least if you buy it between now and March 31. Tap the button below to find the product or keep reading to learn about its cool features.
The Amazon Kindle Scribe has a battery life that can last you up to 12 weeks, has IPX8 water resistance so you can even use it poolside with little worry, has a 10.2 inch paperwhite display, and even comes with a premium pen. Our Amazon Kindle Scribe review discusses just how easy it is to read and write at the same time with the device. Additionally, you can get a real sense for how big the 10.2-inch screen is (despite there being tablets for reading that will have a same or similar size, this is big for a dedicated eReader). When you decide to scribble some notes in the margins or write up a memo, our reviewer stated that it “truly feels like pen and paper.”
Now, being able to take notes on a book isn’t exactly groundbreaking. But what is? The AI features that, when using the Amazon Kindle Scribe in daily life, our reviewer described as being genuinely good — not just a cheap gimmick. You can get summaries of all of the notes you’ve taken so far, for instance, which can be extremely helpful if you’re the type to go overboard with notes… or just don’t want to reread 400 pages worth of biophysics notes before a final. Plus, if you have chicken scratch handwriting like me, there’s another feature that will take your notes and “rewrite” them in an easier-to-read format that even your classmates can understand. Even if you already have a laptop for students, you may still want this in your go-bag.
So, if you’re wanting to upgrade your notetaking and get an excellent eReader along with that, this is the time. The Amazon Kindle Scribe with 64GB of storage is just $365 right now through March 31. You can even get an extra 20% off if you trade in a device with your order. Even without the trade-in you’re getting $85 off of the usual $365 price. Just tap the button below to get yours now.

Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
