Amazon reveals Kindle Scribe for reading and writing

Amazon’s new Kindle Scribe (Amazon/PA)

Amazon has released its latest Kindle that gives users a writing option for the first time since the original device was launched 15 years ago.

The Kindle Scribe is 5.8mm wide and has a glare-free 10.2-inch screen and comes with its own “basic” or “premium” pen option, which magnetically snaps on to the side and does not need charging.
