The Kindle Scribe is an outstanding eReader from Amazon with a trick up its sleeve. Unlike its read-only counterparts, it can also be written on with the included stylus. Combined with the larger 10.2-inch display, it's a unique but compelling ereader experience.

Buy it if: You like the idea of a larger ereader with writing support.
Don't buy it if: You'll never use the stylus; in that case the Kindle Paperwhite is probably the device for you. Despite not being as heavily discounted, it is still $100 cheaper than the Scribe.
While you may think $234 still sounds pricey, it's a bargain compared to other ereaders with writing capabilities. The Remarkable 2 is the most well-known in the category, and it's over $200 more at $449.
