Amazon has launched the new Kindle Scribe in France on June 11. This device is designed for users who want to read, take notes, and write digitally in a format that mimics paper. The new model features an 11-inch screen, a thin casing measuring 5.4 mm, and a built-in notebook with artificial intelligence. To promote the new release, Amazon has lowered the price of the previous generation of the Kindle Scribe. The 2024 version is now available for 259.99 euros, a significant drop from its original price of 479.99 euros. This price applies to the 64 GB version, which offers the most storage space. The 16 and 32 GB models may not receive the same discount, so users should check the product page carefully before purchasing. The Kindle Scribe 2024 has dimensions of 196 × 230 × 5.7 mm and weighs 433 grams, making it heavier and less portable than traditional e-readers. However, its large screen size is ideal for comfortable note-taking. It includes a 10.2-inch Paperwhite screen with a high pixel density of 300 pixels per inch and built-in lighting for reading in the dark. The device comes with a stylus that allows users to take handwritten notes. Amazon claims the textured front of the screen gives a feel similar to writing on paper. The stylus includes a customizable button and an eraser, and it is stored on the side of the e-reader. On the software side, the Kindle Scribe 2024 includes a feature called Active Canvas, which allows users to write directly on the pages of a book, creating a space for notes without obscuring the text. The device can also function as a notebook for meetings, to-do lists, or a calendar, and users can send their handwritten notes by email. Compared to the new generation of the Kindle Scribe, the 2024 model lacks three key features. It does not include the AI-powered notebook, which can summarize handwritten notes and answer questions about their content. It also lacks integration with cloud storage services like Google Drive, OneDrive, and OneNote. Additionally, it is not available in color, unlike the Scribe Colorsoft model. These newer features come at a higher price, with the new Kindle Scribe sold for 449.99 euros without lighting and 519.99 euros with integrated lighting. If users are primarily interested in reading on a large screen, annotating books, and replacing their paper notebooks, the 2024 model already offers all these capabilities. It provides a digital alternative to traditional note-taking and reading, combining the convenience of technology with the feel of writing on paper.
