Nearly 15 years after introducing the first Kindle, Amazon is finally adding a stylus to one of its e-readers. At its fall hardware event, the company unveiled the Kindle Scribe. The device features a 10.2-inch, 300 ppi display with an adjustable front light and a stylus that attaches magnetically to it. According to Amazon, you don’t need to charge or sync the Scribe stylus, and you can use it to jot down notes, journal, and annotate the books you’re reading. Starting next year, you can also send Microsoft Word documents to Kindle Scribe.
Kindle Scribe will start at $339 when it arrives later this year. In addition to different storage options, Amazon will let you choose between a “basic” and “premium” pen. The latter features a customizable shortcut button and a dedicated eraser at the top. In the US, the e-reader will include a free four-month trial of Kindle Unlimited.
