Measuring a mere 5.8mm thick, the Scribe is 26% thinner than my iPhone 14 Pro Max. There’s nothing particularly mind-blowing about this design, but what did shock me is just how thin the Kindle Scribe is. The other three frames are totally empty, save for the magnets on the right frame where you magnetically attach the Basic or Premium Pen - more on those later. On the left frame are a power/lock button (which presses with a very pleasing click) and the USB-C charging port.
It’s an incredibly subtle design touch, but it’s one that I’ve become greatly appreciative of throughout daily use. Those nubs do a couple of things: 1) Keep the back from being scratched when the Scribe’s lying on a table, and 2) hold the Scribe securely in place, so it’s not moving around when writing on it. The Kindle Scribe is so uncumbersome that I feel like I can comfortably use it anywhere. There’s not much to look at, save for the Amazon logo in the middle and four rubber nubs in each corner. The back is constructed out of aluminum and feels cool to the touch. It’s sleek, minimalistic, and is executed so incredibly well on every level. There’s nothing very flashy about the Kindle Scribe’s design.

It’s a seemingly simple addition that completely reimagines the Kindle experience. But in addition to reading, you can also use the Kindle Scribe for writing. Just like all other Kindles that have come before it, you can use the Scribe to read e-books and listen to audiobooks - all on a paper-like e-ink display.
