Amazon’s Kindle Scribe is a new reading device that was announced on September 6, 2014. The Kindle Scribe is a small, lightweight device that attaches to the back of a Kindle Fire tablet. The Kindle Scribe has a built-in keyboard that allows users to type text directly onto the device. The Kindle Scribe also has a touch screen that allows users to access books, magazines, and other content from Amazon’s library. The Kindle Scribe is designed for people who want to be able to read books and other content without having to use a physical keyboard or touchscreen. The Kindle Scribe is also perfect for people who are blind or have difficulty using traditional keyboards and touch screens. The Kindle Scribe will be available starting on October 16, 2014. ..
This Kindle isn’t just for reading, though. There’s a stylus that magnetically attaches to the Kindle Scribe, which doesn’t require charging or pairing. That likely means it’s not an active pen, which rules out pressure sensitivity and other advanced features you might find on an Apple Pencil. There’s also an eraser on the end.
The Kindle Scribe is priced at $399.99, making it by far the most expensive Kindle reader currently sold — almost twice the price of the premium Kindle Oasis. You can pre-order it starting today.
