Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’m very happy with my Kindle Scribe! The large, crisp screen makes reading comfortable, and writing with the stylus feels smooth and natural - just like writing on real paper. It’s perfect for taking notes, journaling, and annotating books. The battery lasts for weeks, and the device itself is lightweight and stylish. However, there are a few downsides: not all books support handwritten notes, and the handwriting-to-text feature doesn’t recognize all languages yet. I hope Amazon improves this in future updates. Overall, it’s an excellent device for both reading and writing - inspiring and truly enjoyable to use!

I bought this for my fiancé said it was the one thing she wanted for Christmas. Come to find out this is her favorite thing ever and she never puts it down.

i really like this device! my only complaint is you cant write directly on book. hopefully there will be an update soon to fix this.

Great customer service with quick & convenient service! The kindle scribe was a great buy!

This product is perfect. I couldn’t ask for such a well made, well rounded product.

I've been using the Kindle Scribe (32GB) for a few weeks now, and it has truly transformed my reading and note-taking experience.​ Design & Display: The 10.2-inch E Ink display is crisp and clear, making reading a pleasure. The adjustable front light ensures comfortable reading in various lighting conditions.​ Note-Taking: The included Premium Pen is responsive and feels natural to write with. I use it daily for journaling and work planning, and the AI handwriting recognition is impressively accurate.​ WIRED Best Buy Battery Life: Even with regular use, the battery lasts for weeks, which is a significant improvement over traditional tablets.​ Storage: The 32GB storage capacity is more than sufficient for my extensive library of books and documents.​ Considerations: While the device is slightly larger and heavier than previous Kindles, it's still portable. Also, the Premium Pen attaches magnetically, but the magnet could be stronger to prevent accidental detachment.​ Tom's Guide Final Thoughts: If you're looking for a versatile device that combines the joys of reading with efficient note-taking, the Kindle Scribe (32GB) is an excellent choice.

The Kindle Scribe is Amazon’s largest and most ambitious Kindle yet—designed not only for reading but also for writing and note-taking. It blends the beloved Kindle reading experience with a stylus, letting you jot down ideas, annotate PDFs, and keep digital notebooks—all on a sharp 10.2” e-ink screen. Incredible Reading Experience. Stylus Feels Natural. Great for Simple Notes. Battery That Lasts,not just a few hours, but for days. Well-Built Sleek aluminum body, thin profile, lightweight for its size, for on-the-go! Feels premium—like a modern tablet but without distractions. Minimalist at it's best!!!

Do yourself a favor and buy this! Perfect for reading, writing, note-taking and study. If I would’ve had this in college I would’ve had the best notes and probably mastered content way easier and faster. I love that I can download virtually any book I want, even most textbooks from what I can can see which is perfect for a student and often cheaper than buying paperback. I love the AI functionality also. It transcribes my handwritten notes with superb accuracy. It could have more fonts to choose from and a bit more added functionality geared towards the note-taking features like adding shapes and symbols into the notes. If you like drawing from time to time on an edevice this would probably work for you also as you can do shading effects. The versatility of this is amazing for such a great price point. You can even make to-do lists, calendars, you name it. You can also purchase template books and calenders from the book store if you don’t love the templates that are pre-loaded. This product is really a home run. I’ve never been happier and more excited about any other kind of tablet, kindle, iPad or note taking device I’ve owned. I found out I can copy and paste notes I’ve made in books into my notebooks which is SO useful. The notebooks come with several templates to choose from making it very versatile. Battery life is great. Even with frequent use it lasts for several days at least without worrying about charging it up. The penciled screensaver art is a nice touch and you don’t deal with ad bombarding from the other devices. I wish you could save it to only show the screensaver you want as some are a bit childish. All around favorite device I’ve owned. I’m reading and writing way more often since owning this kindle scribe. The size is perfect for reading and writing. Fits comfortably in my lap without strain, and the pen is awesome. You can change the settings for the button on the pen to a functionality you use often. Buy the case to protect it and it’s easier to prop up and hold on in your lap.

The Kindle Scribe combines the joy of reading with the convenience of note-taking. Its large, crisp display is easy on the eyes, and the included pen feels natural for writing or annotating books. Battery life is impressive, and the sleek design makes it portable. A perfect tool for readers and learners.

This was a gift to my sons girlfriend, she said she loves loves it. The slick , lightweight design makes it easy to take any where to read her novels and Bible.

i think it’s genuinely a good device. whether you need a larger screen or you use it for notes— it gets the job done. it isn’t entirely seamless, sometimes there are minor issues when writing notes on a pdf to where the box forms and it cuts off, but writing itself is lovely. you feel like you are writing on paper— rare to come by! the lack of highlights for color definitely takes some points off in my opinion, but overall, would recommend

this is a life changer for me. im always making notes and keeping track of everything and prefer to write it all down vs typing. having everything all in one place s well as all of my books in the same place is awesome. i love it and will die on this hill

This Kindle Scribe is great! The screen is clear, and it is easy to use! As a graduate student, I love having the ability to take my notes directly on my textbook! 10/10 recommend!

Perfect for reading, and the screen is very wide, so that a lot more gets onto the screen. I haven't yet tried any templates or made any notebooks but that is why i purchased, so i will be doing that soon. I did look at the notebook feature, and it's very easy to do. I am glad to invest in this as i have quite a large collection of kindle books and also will input pdf files, specifically crochet patterns!! I bought this on sale. The full price was a little steep for my budget.

I absolutely love the Kindle Scribe. It has completely changed how I read and take notes. The ability to write directly on documents, annotate PDFs, and capture handwritten notes in one place is incredibly convenient and intuitive. I use it not just for reading, but for organizing ideas, reviewing documents, and taking notes that actually stay connected to what I’m working on. The writing experience feels smooth and natural, and having everything stored digitally keeps me far more organized than paper notebooks ever did. On top of that, it’s still a Kindle at its core, which means access to thousands of books in one lightweight device. Switching seamlessly between reading and note-taking makes it an ideal tool for both work and personal use. If you read a lot and take notes regularly, the Kindle Scribe is an outstanding investment.

The device itself is pretty neat. Wife and I got one each and kids paperwhite and kids color, for the kids. The scribes are pretty fun and the kids were envious of the stylus feature, but they’re not going to use that feature so they don’t need the Scribe. Wife and I will use for work. Already used the book feature which is good. The general navigation interface is not amazing tbh, but I’m sure we’ll get used to it. The biggest issue is Amazon. My scribe crashed during registration and I lost my 3 months ‘free’ trial of Kindle Unlimited offer. I spent 45-60 minutes online with 3 agents (including manager) to arrive at some poor compromise where I assured a refund later. Suffice to say I am skeptical of this and feel Amazon should do better. The claims made by the agents were ridiculous (e.g. that I should have taken screenshots to prove I have entitlement to the offer, the I should contact Best Buy to reset my Unlimited offer - just think about that for one second). Overall, confirms that Amazon is a terrible company for customer satisfaction and I was close to just sending it all back. In fact I do still resent the company for how this was handled and don’t really want to pay for any other service from them, but you know I will… begrudgingly anyway. Why? Because the scribe is a much better price point than remarkable, and the book feature is convenient.

I love my Kindle Scribe. In addition to using it for notes at church and for reading, (and WRITING on my ebooks now), I also use it for a monthly meal planner in the Notes. It's incredibly helpful, feels more put together than the 1st version, and I really like it.

This reader is great. I love the way it feels in my hand. The paper white screen is very easy on the eyes. The battery life is phenomenal. I'm not using the writing feature as much as I thought I would but I have a few time. Sometimes I use the stylus just to navigate thru the book.

Compatibility with pdfs is great. The screen doesn't hurt your eyes after hours of use. Slight burn in of orchids pages, but it will fade. The stylus is nice. UI is slightly clunky.

I highly recommend the Kindle Scribe. I loved my earlier Kindle, however, the screen was just too small for what I needed (old eyes). The Scribe is much bigger, easy to hold, and easier to read. I love all the features, especially the ability to write and take notes with the stylus. Very versatile and intuitive device, highly recommend.
