That’s less than the cost of the Kindle on its own, and in total £90.29 less than if you bought each of the three products separately at a cost of £300.97.Article continues below ADVERTISEMENT Kindle Colorsoft with cover and charger £300.97 £210.68 View DealThis bundle offers the newest Kindle Colorsoft (RRP £239) with Amazon's official cover case and power adapter for a great price, saving you more than £90.Kindles are sold with just a USB cable in the box, so this bundle adds in a plug for you to attach to the mains, plus a plant based (i.e.not leather) cover to protect your new investment.Not only will the cover protect the back of the Kindle Colorsoft, the front opens up like a book to reveal the screen so you can read, as well as keep it free from scratches when it’s closed.Best of all, these covers (RRP £42.99) are smart enough to wake the Kindle from sleep mode when opened and enable sleep mode when closed, without ever having to press the button on the bottom as you have to do without the cover attached.
Article continues below ADVERTISEMENTThe Kindle Colorsoft is the first ever Kindle with a colour screen, which means book covers in your library and in the Kindle Store pop off the screen, trying to mimic the feeling of being in a bookshop and having certain covers grab your attention.This simply doesn’t happen in the monochrome world of most other Kindles and e-readers.I’ve tried it out, and it’s a nice upgrade.

On its own, it costs £17.99.This Kindle offer is listed as a ‘Limited time deal’, so it’s unclear how long this price will last.Luckily, the deal is not restricted to Amazon Prime subscribers, with anyone able to buy.Read next SUBSCRIBE Invalid emailWe use your sign-up to provide content in ways you've consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
