We don’t write about the Kindle Scribe too often because, let’s be honest, it’s quite expensive with its $420 MSRP. But now that October Prime Day has come and gone, we’re seeing “like-new” Kindle Scribe digital notebooks for $228, which is a much better price.

These discounted Kindle Scribes are refurbished devices that were tested and certified to be in perfect working order. Quite honestly, it’s likely that these are returned items from last week’s sale since “like new” Amazon gear always pops up at a discount after major sale events.

The Kindle Scribe is a solid digital notebook option, enabling you to take notes, sketch, journal, and so on without the distractions you get from a tablet. Since the Scribe can turn your handwritten notes into text, it’s even more useful as you can transfer those to other apps later on. You can even write on books, which is something we know you’d never do in real life (hopefully).

The Kindle Scribe features a 10.2-inch Paperwhite display that’s quite larger than your regular e-reader, so there’s plenty of space to write your notes.

So go ahead and get yourself a Kindle Scribe with 32GB of storage space and a Premium Pen for only $228 while this deal’s still around.
