The Kindle Paperwhite comes bundled with a case for just $155 for October Prime Day

It's the last day of Amazon's Prime Big Deals Days event, and some of the hottest deals are starting to wrap up. Case in point: the Kindle Paperwhite (11th edition) e-reader is currently marked down and bundled with a fabric cover and a power adapter for just $155. If you've been in the market for a new e-reader, now is the time to spring into action since you can't ask for a better deal than this. 

Just on its own, the 11th-edition Kindle Paperwhite is typically around $150, but with this bundle, not only are you getting the device, but Amazon is throwing in the fabric cover and adapter for free. Keep in mind that as of today, only the device in the black colorway without lockscreen ads is still available.

We're particularly excited about this deal since the Kindle Paperwhite is our pick for best e-reader overall. It's a top-notch device with all the familiar features of a Kindle (300 ppi e-ink screen, long battery life, and auto-adjusting light) and a crisp and clear reading experience that auto-adjusts based on the light in your surroundings. 

It's also waterproof (how many tablets can say that?), so you can read by the pool or in the bath without worrying about stray splashes. The version on sale has 16GB of memory -- plenty for loading e-books, navigating through text, and flipping pages. 

Also: One of the best e-readers I've tested is not a Kindle or a ReMarkable 

The collection of e-books you gain access to with a Kindle is one of the best on the market. If you subscribe to Amazon Prime, you'll get unlimited access to thousands of titles, including eBooks and magazines. And if you want to spring for Kindle Unlimited, you'll get over two million titles, including thousands of audiobooks. 

The bundled cloth cover comes in your choice of black, agave green, or denim, and folds back to support one-handed reading. They're also sold separately in case you want to mix it up. The cover not only protects the outer surface of the device but it also has a magnetic attachment that stays securely closed when not in use.
