Kindle Scribe comes with its own stylus
Coming soon
The Kindle has grown from just a simple reader. Over the years, Amazon kept upgrading its iconic reader by adding paperwhite and waterproof models. Today, the next step of the reader’s evolution has arrived. Amazon has unveiled the Kindle Scribe, a reader with a stylus.
During Amazon’s event today, the company unveiled upgrades to its lineup of devices. Besides a smattering of new speakers, one notable upgrade is the Kindle Scribe. Going out on sale later this year, the new reader pairs the device with a functional stylus for the E Ink display.
Coming with a sizable side bezel, users can hold the reader firmly while reading or writing notes. For a more technical rundown, the reader sports a 10.2-inch screen with a 300ppi display. It also comes with a light for accessibility in the dark. Meanwhile, the stylus itself won’t need charging and will attach seamlessly through a magnet on the reader’s side.
The Scribe will join the Kindle’s thriving lineup of e-readers consisting of the regular model, the Paperwhite, the Oasis, the Fire, and a Kids lineup.
Releasing with different size options, the Kindle Scribe will start at US$ 339. Users can also choose between a basic and a more premium stylus. The premium pen will come with an additional function and an eraser.

Hands-on: NEW iPhone 17e, iPad Air, MacBooks, Studio Displays
What Apple has announced other than the MacBook Neo
The MacBook Neo was the star of yesterday’s Apple event, and it has every right to be but it’s been a big week for Apple.
So as promised, we also went hands-on with every other device announced this week: iPhone 17e, M4 iPad Air, M5 MacBook Air, MacBook Pro with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, and the new Studio Displays.
A year ago, Apple released the iPad Air featuring the M3 chip. Everyone’s needs, of course, grow, so why not the new iPad? Today, alongside the new iPhone 17e, Apple has launched the new iPad Air with the M4 chip.
For the last three iterations, Apple has been on schedule for its iPad Air updates. The M2 chip arrived in 2024, and the M3 arrived last year. Now, it’s the M4 chip’s turn. Using this chip, the new iPad Air features an 8-core CPU and a 9-core GPU. It’s supposed to be 30 percent faster than the previous Air.
There’s also much better speed with 12GB of unified memory and 120GB/s of memory bandwidth. This pairs well with iOS 26, which allows faster windowing.
Likewise, the 12-megapixel Center Stage camera, mics, and speakers make it perfect for calls.
The tablet features the Apple-designed N1 wireless chip, which enables Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread connectivity. However, the cellular models will also have the new C1X modem, which delivers 50 percent faster data performance.
Like others in the lineup, the new tablet will support accessories that squeeze more productivity and creativity from the powerful tablet. This includes the Apple Pencil, Apple Pencil Pro, and the Magic Keyboard.
Price, availability
The new iPad Air with M4 is available for preorder on March 4 and will ship out starting March 11. The 11- and 13-inch models will come in configurations of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. It will come in four colorway options: blue, purple, starlight, and space gray.
The 11-inch iPad Air with M4 starts at US$ 599 (or PhP 42,990) for the Wi-Fi variant and US$ 749 (or PhP 52,990) for the Wi-Fi + Cellular variant.
Meanwhile, the 13-inch iPad Air with M4 starts at US$ 799 (or PhP 54,990) for the Wi-Fi variant and US$ 949 (or PhP 64,990) for the Wi-Fi + Cellular variant.
