Arogs has added the popular Kindle e-readers to a discreet section of its sale
Kindles have become a go-to for readers who want the convenience of carrying an entire library in their bag. Over the years, they’ve earned a reputation for simplicity, long battery life, and a great reading experience.
Whether it’s for daily commuters, holidaymakers, or anyone looking to read more without the weight of physical books, they have become a fan favourite. Now, shoppers can grab the Amazon Kindle Coloursoft Signature Ed 32 GB E-Reader for £214.99 down from £269.99 from Argos – saving them £55.
In a rare deal, Argos is also offering an additional 10% off with the code RED10 which brings the total down to £193.49, making the Kindle even cheaper than it is on Amazon, where it’s currently priced at £214.99.
This Kindle is designed for simplicity and performance with its all new 7-inch Coloursoft display which introduces colour to shoppers’ reading experience while still maintaining a paper-like finish. Covers and illustrations of books will now appear more vivid, but the text remains clear and comfortable to read.
Readers can also highlight passages in four colours – yellow, orange, blue and pink – making it easier to mark favourite sections or important notes. A single charge can last up to eight weeks, depending on usage, and the auto-adjusting front light ensures the display adapts to different environments, from bright daylight to low-light settings.
Designed to be waterproof, the device can be used confidently by the pool, in the bath or even outdoors without customers having to worry.
If this isn’t the one for everyone, shoppers could instead try the Kobo Clara E-Reader for £129.99 from Argos which has a 6 inch touch screen, 16GB internal memory, can store 12000 books and has a charge time of just two hours. Another is the BOOX Palma 2 for £279.99 from Amazon which has a crisp, paper-like display.
The Kindle from Argos has a high 4.5 out of 5-star rating on the website. One person said: “I had this new Kindle coloursoft brought for my birthday from my husband. What a great present I can even read faster on a Kindle as opposed to hardback.
“I love it and you can read in sunlight and in the dark no need to change any settings. Happy wife happy life.”
Another said: “I was contemplating buying one for a while as I wanted to get back into reading and with the amount of different kindles out there I was drawn most to this one and I’m SO glad I did.
“I’ve had it just over a week and have read four books already. So comfortable and light to hold and the battery life is amazing!!!! Do not regret buying at all.”
A third reviewer said: “Being in colour makes it much easier to see the covers and titles of books in my library.”
Not everyone agreed, however, as one person said: “Favourite aspect of this device is the speed of the page turns. The backlight and colour are also really easy on the eyes. A little pricey though.” A second said: “Not as good as I hoped.”
