Is Kindle Scribe worth it in 2026?

By NeonVibe275 · QUESTION · About Kindle Scribe

I'm thinking about getting Kindle Scribe but it's been out for a while now. Is it still worth the investment in 2026 or should I wait for the next version? Would love to hear from current owners about whether it still holds up.
