The Best and Worst Selling Kindles Are…
Today I was looking over the electronics bestsellers list at Amazon.com and thought the way the various Kindle models stack up against each other is interesting.Currently the #1 bestselling Kindle is the 7? Kindle Fire HD for $199. That’s somewhat surprising considering the fact that Amazon just ran a couple of sales on the 8.9? Kindle Fire HDs this past week, but there’s only one of those in the top 20 of electronics overall.
Compared to the other Kindle models, the 8.9? KFHD isn’t ranking nearly as high. Both E Ink Kindles are selling better than it and there’s only one of the 4G models on the list, and it’s all the way at #83. The old Kindle Keyboards from years ago are outselling it, and so is last year’s basic Kindle, which isn’t even available anymore.Another interesting thing with the top 100 list is that the Special Offers Kindles always sell more than their ad-free counterparts. A lot of people complain about the ads but a lot of people are buying them anyway (it would be interesting to know how many people pay the extra fee to remove the ads after using the Kindle for awhile).
Here’s the overall list of Kindle devices and their overall ranking in the top 100 bestsellers list as of today 12/14/12:
#1. 7? Kindle Fire HD 16GB with Special Offers – $199
