Completely won over, eventually
I bought the Colorsoft at launch. On my settings I don’t have an issue with a yellow band as do some other reviewers although there’s a barely detectable tint at the bottom of the screen. Despite my enchantment with the pastel colours, I didn’t take to it at first, comparing it unfavourably with the Oasis.The reason was habit. I’ve had to unlearn the muscle memory I’d developed for the ‘cradle hold’ I used for the physically wider Oasis. Adapting was a slow process of becoming conscious of these habits before letting go of them to begin to appreciate differences as improvements, and for a while I flipped back and forth between Oasis and Colorsoft.The Colorsoft is narrower than the Oasis so there are more ways of holding it that avoid fouling the off switch on the bottom edge (unintentionally switching it off when not using a case, my preference). Presumably it’s there for aesthetic reasons so that the hardware ‘controls’ (on switch, charging port, LED) are grouped together, in a departure from the laudable asymmetry of the Oasis. After finding it frustrating because I had grown accustomed to an on/off switch at the top, on the Oasis, and not having auto rotate for the display, I came to accept the choice.Auto rotate is arguably unnecessary since the device is symmetrical. There is alandscape view, which you can set manually (not seemingly automatic when zooming diagrams, as with the Oasis).I didn’t use a case for the Oasis: it has a metal body that slips in and out of a jacket pocket when on the move. An index finger poised at the top easily switched it on or off without having to rely on a case’s auto wake function.The narrower Colorsoft slips into a greater variety of pockets, (upside down when without a case, to avoid its own weight switching it on).I missed the physical, and satisfying to operate, page turn buttons on the Oasis where you can keep a finger rested on the ‘next’ button throughout your reading or slip it down to hit the back button. The Colorsoft touchscreen seems more responsive and reliable than previous versions, at the expense of grubbiness (fingers on screen rather than buttons), but it’s only recently that I noticed (a software upgrade?) the double tap (back or sides of body) for page turning (because there’s an accelerometer, although that doesn’t yet seem to activate anything else). I have enabled page turn animation (Font > More tab, scroll down) and the two used together come close to the feel of physically turning a page.The understated colour is hard to resist even when most of my reading is b&w. Colour in the covers, and highlighting, becomes something you miss: it’s a pleasant surprise to come across a hyperlink among black text, and find it displayed in blue, and the occasional cookbook is more rewarding with colour photographs or illustrations, in place of monochrome.Pages (or rather, their appearance beneath the mask on the glass front) are not squared off at their corners as on the Oasis, they have small radiuses not generally noticeable (a tad more pronounced than those of the earlier PaperWhite Signature, I see) but perhaps adding an unconscious impression of greater quality.It’s around 30 grams heavier than the Oasis, plus the effect if using a case.Its display is murkier when off (perhaps misleading some reviewers to think book covers aren’t displaying in colour), compared with the Oasis display, though there’s negligible difference when using the backlight.I can barely see the yellow at the bottom of the screen with my preferred screen settings. I’ve only once had a problem with a Kindle (a string of dead pixels creating a horizontal line across the screen of a Scribe) across many models. I’m picky but perhaps have been lucky. (People complained about uneven lighting on the first screen-lit versions, which I found settled within minutes of first use, maybe as the strip of LED lights equalised).It’s a neat package overall, most of the best improvements over time have been incorporated: Faster, Narrower, Waterproof, USB C.Book covers display in colour when off, without having to switch to vibrant as one reviewer suggests (though with the screen light also necessarily off, it’s not always apparent. Easier to see under artificial light, or maybe strong daylight). Sometimes it’s unexpected pleasure when a cover is attractive, for example Barbara Pym’s Excellent Women, or Tokyo Express.It seems faster than earlier models, but not quite fast enough to make viewing graphic novels seamless. I tried it with one of the Stéphane Heuet volumes of Proust, where you have to use the zoom facility (particularly because the pages are noticeably smaller than the screen, perhaps victim of aspect ratios) and while you don’t have to wait for the zoom, you do for a second for the frame colours to resolve.

The e-reader pretty much perfected
Upgraded from my (not so old) paperwhite 11th gen as Amazon sale + trade in discount made it a relatively affordable upgrade. I have the "fixed" version. There is the ever so slightest amount of colour shift at the very bottom of the screen which can be seen when reading in the dark with the backlight at specific levels however if you have the eye protection colour thing on then it disappears. Tbh if I hadn't read about the issue with launch models I probably would never have noticed but I was specifically looking for it.The device itself it's pretty much perfected. The colour makes it fun to see your digital bookshelf but of course is kind of immaterial reading normal books. The screen is subtly bigger and text is still pin sharp. However, there is an ever so slight grainyness to the screen. I used my phone's macro lense and appears to be the separate colour layer over the top of the black ink capsules. Not a big deal but worth mentioning as it initially bothered me however I don't notice it any more and I'm overall very happy with the screen.Battery life isn't quite as ridiculously good as the paper white but you're still talking 3-4 decent novels before needing recharged and the wireless charging makes up for it.By far and away the biggest upgrade is the processor though. I compared downloading and opening a book with my old model and it's literally 10x faster than the old one.All in all very happy with the upgrade and if you are looking for a kindle and have the disposable income to shell out for the premium option then I can definitely recommend it.

Do you need it?
I have never had a bad Kindle and this one deserves its five stars, however it is likely to be a very marginal upgrade if you have a recent model unless you need or want colour. I did not have the adjustable amber light on my older Oasis so this alone was worth the upgrade for me. It makes for a more paper-like experience although I cannot understand why the colour gamut extends (fairly quickly) into such a distinctively deep orange colour. There is a slight fuzz to the white page background caused by the colour layers but this curiously adds to the readability. The text is no less sharp than my Oasis was. The pictures on the product page here are somewhat optimistic in terms of the vividness of the colour. In reality, the colours are far more muted - faded watercolours rather than rich oils - but still clear and clean. The lower resolution on colour pages is barely noticeable. I checked for the infamous yellow band at the bottom and there is a slight but definite discolouration. It may or may not be an issue for you depending on how sensitive you are (see additional comment below). I cannot comment on the battery life or how much I will miss the buttons on the Oasis. My initial sense is that the latter will fine. The wireless charging is very nice, though the matching charger does give out a rather bright light in a dark bedroom. Perhaps Amazon could consider muting the light or making it a more sleep-friendly red. I also bought the premium leather case (walnut) which is very nice indeed.Edit 30 December: I rang customer service about the yellow discolouration and was told that the problem has in fact not been fixed by the technical department. They are currently seeking a solution. They are sending a replacement, which I fully expect to exhibit the same problem. In spite of this, I will stand by the 5 star rating - not least due to my confidence that Amazon will resolve the problem in due course and the fact that the discolouration does not really detract from the utility or enjoyment of the device.Edit 2 Jan: The replacement Coloursoft proved, unsurprisingly, to be no better than the original one. In fact the screen was dimmer and yellower at all settings than the one it was supposed to replace. It has been returned.

Lovely device, though expensive for muted, older newsprint style colour
I’m very pleased with my Kindle Coloursoft, which I picked up as part of a bundle together with a case and charging base during Amazon's Spring Deals, and bringing the price of the 32GB device down to £166 - more than a hundred pounds below its regular price point.The Coloursoft device itself is really good: as long as you accept that the colour function isn't bright, but more like a watercolour wash over grey print.I wasn't initially sure about the 7” size (it's been years since I last treated myself to a Kindle, and they were all smaller), finding it less book-like than my old Kindle. But by simple dint of playing with the customisation I managed to find a setup that I’m happy with. I've always been a fan of a Kindle as a lightweight, easy way to transport an entire library's worth of books around in my pocket, and this one is no exception. Even if the pocket needs to be slightly larger!There are masses of easy to use customisable options, including light/dark setup for reading; screen brightness and light warmth; margin width (this was the one that enabled me to make the page setup seem more like the width of a paperback - it not doing so was something that had bothered me more than the actual screen size); font style and size; plus more. The character resolution doesn't seem quite as distinct as on the screen for my old Paperwhite - it's not awful but there is a noticeably grey, dotty appearance to characters.Although the device has a colour screen, the colours are muted: soft, and pastel style. I have a Remarkable PaperPro Move writing tablet, and the colour palette is very similar to the colours available on that, so I feel this gave me a good idea of what to expect.A lot of the time, when reading ordinary novels you would forget that this is a colour device, although bookmarks and highlights are offered in a selection of colours, and chapter numbering tends to appear as blue links. When the device goes into sleep mode, the screensavers are all full colour, and this displays book covers and links in colour too.At the price I paid, I am really happy with this: but am not convinced about it at the full price as it is quite a lot more expensive than the Paperwhite.

Yellow band still there but…
I’m really very impressed with the Colorsoft for build, speed, surprisingly vibrant colours and quality.Unlike a few other reviews I’ve read, the Lock Screen does display the book cover in colour but you have to have it set to ‘vibrant’.Addressing the yellow banding issue - yes I do think it’s still there but most of the time I think that it’s visible because I know about it and have read so much about it. As to whether I can live with it, that remains to be seen. For the price of the product, which is premium, it shouldn’t be there and I’m hoping that Amazon can fix it with future updates. It’s currently not affecting my reading.I can’t comment on what Amazon have done so far to sort the yellow banding but I believe they have tweaked the lighting colours (that’s only reading comments so just hearsay and conjecture) I have a Kindle Scribe and the screen on that seems far better and the white ‘pops’ whereas the new Colorsoft doesn’t seem to hit the same wow.To sum up, there are a couple of negatives in my review there so why 5 stars? Well I’m coming from a 2018 Paperwhite which felt painfully slow in comparison; the yellow hue really isn’t that bad for me (at the moment) and despite what people may say about the colour, it really does add depth to my experience with the device.I’ll likely add to this review over the next month whilst I decide if this is something I can live with for the next 6 - 7 years or if I decide to return and wait for Amazon to truly fix / replace or update the device.For now though, I really can’t put it down.

Screen issues persist despite software update
Update 4: January 9, no update from Amazon so I am still waiting for a replacement Kindle. Recent reviews of Kindles received suggest the banding problem remains, at least in a high proportion of devices shipped. I’m patient in the hope that Amazon are producing new Kindles with manufacturing changes as the software’s update merely hides the problem. I would still advise potential buyers not to purchase the Colorsoft at present. It’s ironic that customers who, presumably, are interested in a colour experience from a Kindle are receiving a device with a yellow band at the bottom of the screen!I note that the warning notice on the product page advising on the banding has now been removed by Amazon. That’s disappointing as the problem persists.Update 3: In mid-December I received a replacement Kindle Colorsoft. It’s clear that Amazon have played with the software’s screen settings. By default, with the same screen brightness and hue figure set the replacement has a warmer yellow look. Unfortunately this seems to be an attempt to disguise the fact that the yellow banding is still there. Setting both screens to look the same - which means that a direct comparison between the brightness and hue settings screen show different values - the yellow banding remains. Since, during daylight, I prefer a whiter screen, this is not a solution at all!Clearly a software update to make the screen appear yellower is not a solution. At first Amazon wanted me to agree for the replacement Kindle to be sent away for ‘repair’. This is not acceptable for a brand-new, straight out of the box, product. They have now asked me to wait for a third replacement.Amazon really need to own this problem and be straight with customers. If they persist with merely trying to disguise the screen problem, for a very expensive Kindle, I’ll return all of them and will also request a refund for the charging base I purchased and the premium leather cover - which is now scratched. Kindle Colorsoft’s are now shipping again in the UK. I have yet to receive one but fear that they are sending these out with just the software update and no expensive hardware changes.Update 2: I posted an updated review a couple of days ago concerning the unacceptable yellow hue on the Kindle screen. That revision did not result in my review being updated which is strange to say the least. So I’m trying again.I would not buy this Kindle until the issues are resolved. I was initially offered a replacement which was not acted on even though the website indicated a replacement would be sent. Having spoken to CS this evening they could then only offer a refund and not a replacement. This is complex as I also purchased the premium case and the wireless charging unit. They now promise to get back to me in 72 hours. We’ll see if that happens and whether this review is updated on the second attempt.And the second attempt at a revised review has been posted. That’s good. What’s not so good is that Amazon Customer Service sent me an email, within 72 hours, as promised. I was offered a refund or a replacement in their email and was required to contact Customer Service. On doing this I was told that a software update was already ready to go and in one or two weeks the screen issues would be resolved. However, the Amazon contact was rather more eager to just refund me, and when I said that this screen issue must have been software driven I did not get a clear response. So I’ll see what happens in a couple of weeks and try and update the review again. Frankly I’m skeptical that this is a software problem and note that new colour Kindles are still not available for around eight weeks. I was told they would be in stock by the end of November. A software update should be relatively easy so availability doesn’t quite stick to the narrative.There’s no doubt a strong element of incompetence here from Amazon!I should also note that the 150dpi colour display results in pixelated fonts which in DK guidebooks I’ve used with the Kindle is very noticeable.Original review:This must be my fifth or sixth Kindle including the three generations of the Oasis and the last generation of the Scribe. I like the Scribe due to its size but it’s not as portable as I’d like.This Colour Kindle is compact, but still with a 7” screen which was a big upgrade on the early Oasis 6" screen. The colour quality is the best I’ve seen on a e-Paper device. It lacks the IPad Pro colour but that hurts my eyes to read and it uses different OLED technology. As such the Kindle is good but since the min drive to buy this Kindle is because it supports colour the low 150dpi is poor.Downsides are the price of the top of the range case and wireless charger but I think the Kindle itsself is good value - even through I also purchased the two accessories. Certainly a third-party case would reduce the cost the and charging station is not really necessary.In performance terms the 300dpi grey/amber ‘mono’ screen is better than the Oasis. The colour is at a lower 150dpi which shows a bit but it is still a joy to read illustrated books - especially guide books which I found barely satisfactory in mono. It’s also fast and has a vast memory of 32Gb - a lot of books even comic books. Page turns are instant and the page refresh is massively fast.So, on balance this is my most flexible Kindle and it’s about time Amazon produced a colour version!Overall a strong four star ratings for me. Plus early tech magazines and reviews give it high scores.Recommended.As I noted above, due to the screen issues I wouldn’t buy this Kindle at present and the dpi for books in colour is poor.

The best implementation of Kaliedo 3 to date. (Updated Aug 2025)
Last year, like a lot of folks, I was excited by the announcement from Amazon of a colour Kindle. Amazon were late to the colour eInk party other eReader companies had been doing it for a couple of years, but when the Colorsoft Signature Edition (SE) launched it launched with a bang, the custom screen stack that Amazon had designed was vibrant, colourful and snappy. It was the best implementation of Kaleido 3.However…Within months, for some people weeks, some peoples’ screens started to discolour at the bottom, near the nitride LEDs. This yellow discolouration – or “dreaded yellow band” caused a massive outcry from customers. Amazon stopped all shipments of the Colorsoft SE and even tried several software fixes to mitigate the issue whilst they investigated what the problem was… But those mitigations only worked for a time.The problem was eventually identified as a hardware issue; the optical tape holding the screen stack layers together was reacting badly to the nitride LEDs.Like a lot of customers my original Colorsoft SE suffered with the dreaded yellow band, as did the 3 subsequent replacement units. In fact, I got very close to giving up and switching back to using a Paperwhite (although that too, had the same issue because it was using the same optical tape and LEDs).But Amazon were not going to give up, and in the end – neither did I.Earlier this year (2025) Amazon started sending out refurbished Colorsoft SEs to customers that were having screen issues. Unbeknownst to most customers was the fact that these refurbished units featured a new screen. In fact, it was an improved screen. The stack had been rebuilt, different optical tape was used, and Amazon updated the backplate as well.But Amazon decided to double down on there investment in colour eReaders; in July 2025 they expanded the Colorsoft family to include a base unit and kids unit. They also, very quietly and without fanfare, refreshed the Colorsoft SE to new specs.So what’s different with the Colorsoft SE 2025?The wireless charging coil has been moved to a better location; the mainboard has been updated with a new processor and most importantly - the screen has been revamped. The nitride LEDs are still there, but Amazon improved the stack by changing the optical tape to one that won’t discolour, new micro-diffusers for better light coverage, a new oxide back plate to improve contrast and make blacks – well, black. Other minor changes include FCC text and information being on the back of the unit, above where the power button is, and the improved unit is a gram lighter. The box art has been updated, and is a little more dynamic than before.But does it really make a difference?Yes. The 2025 Colorsoft SE is snappier, faster and beautiful. The screen has returned to being vibrant, and the improved contrast means that text stands out – as it should. It is, once again, the best implementation of Kaleido 3 to date. I can’t applaud Amazon enough for what they have done. They accepted a problem existed and went back to the drawing board to fix it.In terms of review – This is the colour Kindle we were promised. The screen has a nice paper-like texture and reads very well. Colour pops and stands out, blues are vibrant, reds are no longer muddy but red. It’s quite a snappy device, scrolling through your library is fast, with little refresh delay. 32gb is very generous storage and works well for customers like me who also read eComics and like to have their Audible library on their device.Is it worth getting?Yes. Ok, so it costs more than the Kobo Libra Colour. But it has a better screen, Audible integration and direct access to Amazon’s somewhat massive library of eBooks, eComics, and eGraphic Novels. The recent updates, which now include like and character spacing, add to the richness of the experience when using it. I think Amazon need to update the Audible controls, though, still very basic on Kindles in general. We need a few more controls (like a sleep timer and the ability to play one chapter only).But yes, this is a good device. I’m enjoying it, and I have had no problems with it. Amazon cracked the problem and improved the device. That alone means I can give them five stars. The fact that the 2025 Colorsoft SE is doing what it’s supposed to be doing? Seals the deal.

Colorsoft is beautiful. No issues with my purchase 1/25
Its not often I am an early adopter of new technology but a coloured e-reader or Kindle has been something that has been on my own technology wish-list for several years. Finally this year through Kobo with its Clara and Libra Color (colour from here on out). I am well entrenched in the Amazon ecosystem and due to my vast library and pretty much positive experience I am happy to stay there too.I will say that prior to a colour reader from Amazon, the Kobo did catch my eye and I was almost going to get one but decided to wait. They look a fun device but for me it is missing the certain something and it looks not as premium or well made as a Kindle (no joke intended). Also I have searched for many books I own on Kindle on the Kobo store and not found them available so that was another mark against the Kobo.Then Amazon announced the Kindle Colorsoft and my dream came true… Then it came out and was what people feared it to be a rushed product that was blighted by issues since launching. Notably a yellow band across the screen and (something common to both Kobo and Kindle) dead pixels. Due to the backlash and negative feedback the device has been limited in availability and taken off shelves up until just before Christmas (typically when all presents have been decided and bought).I decided I deserved a New Years gift and it was in stock so on the 4th January I ordered it expecting it the 7th and to my surprise it arrived on the 5th and dear reader… She is beautiful! Is she perfect? No, but we can overlook all that.It was with baited breathe I waited for the delivery and opened it, having read reviews and posts and seeing other peoples experiences I was expecting at least a hint of yellow banding but to my surprise it is perfect. No yellowing or dead pixels at all.I have been using it for a few days now and I have to say I am pretty impressed with it so far. It is not perfect but it is a wonderful step into the World of Colour and e-readers.PriceIt is an expensive piece of kit? Worth it? That is subjective and for me yes it is worth it and I will enjoy using this device and get value from it and many years of use. I expect it to be another 2 or 3 years before a second coloured Kindle. Given the amount of issues with QC I would not keep a premium product at this price point unless it was 100% perfect. I wouldn’t settle if it was just a little yellow etc.ScreenWith the new technology going into this, it is going to look a little different to the previous models of Kindle, it is a completely new technology. The screen looks papery, not as crisp and clear as a normal Kindle but not too bad either. Looks a bit like thin tracing paper laid over the screen.Colour is where this shines and compared to Kobo it looks a lot more vivid and clear and less ghosting when zooming. The implementation of the technology has been superior in Kindle. The colours pop nicely and compared to the greyscale normal of the kindle the colours do make a difference. Contrast is where it is let down as it is very dark and renders the colours not too good especially the darker it is. I do prefer my brightness up. How the screen is affected by the sun I don’t know yet and haven’t tried (UK here!).Images are not glossy like a magazine, similar to a news paper, if you want vivid images read on a tablet with Kindle App.I did expect more from it and the lock screen, it is cool to see the cover and in colour but like all Kindles the lock screen isn’t backlit so you don’t really see the colour. If there are future devices I would love to see a wake function for the lock screen where the screen can brighten and show off the cover without opening the Kindle.PerformanceExcellent performance, feels more snappy and quicker. Not had any issues with anything especially once all the indexing was completed. No stuttering or ghosting encountered.OtherI do have the Jade vegan case to go with the Kindle, my first Amazon case having only ever used third party cases and if feels good quality and well made. Certainly feels a premium product to go with the Colorsoft.A big negative is that with the generation of Kindles (possibly the last too) Amazon has done away with the “Download and Transfer” feature for the new models. Which means you can no longer download a copy of your purchased titles to transfer via USB. It still works for older models but not the new ones.OverallA great device and addition to the Kindle and e-reader family but a device that can be so much more. For the first one it is an admirable effort and hopefully can be built upon and do more with it. Imagine a Kindle Scribe Colour or a Kindle Oasis Colour? Would that be more making the Kindle a tablet and too similar to a Fire tablet? Where do you draw the line? For me some slight adjustments to this and you have a perfect reader. The same screen technology with the Scribe = perfect. Perhaps an illumination feature for the lock screen to show off the book covers. Perhaps too the long requested buttons? Could also have a toggle for Colour/B&W? So many possibilities.All in all a great product and certainly a base to build from

Une liseuse nouvelle génération très agréable 📚✨
J’ai acheté la Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition (nouvelle génération) et franchement, c’est une excellente surprise.Le gros point fort, c’est évidemment l’écran couleur. Ça change vraiment l’expérience, surtout pour les BD, mangas ou livres illustrés. Les couleurs restent douces (typique de l’e-ink), donc ça ne fatigue pas les yeux comme une tablette classiqueLa lecture est super confortable, même pendant plusieurs heures. L’écran est antireflet et l’éclairage automatique s’adapte bien à l’environnement, ce qui évite de régler sans arrêt la luminosité.Avec ses 32 Go de stockage, il y a largement de quoi stocker des centaines voire des milliers de livres . Et la batterie tient vraiment longtemps (plusieurs semaines sans recharge selon l’utilisation), ce qui est un énorme avantage.La recharge sans fil est un vrai plus au quotidien : on pose la liseuse et ça charge, sans prise de tête.👉 Points positifs :Écran couleur agréable et reposantTrès bonne autonomie32 Go de stockage (énorme capacité)Recharge sans fil + éclairage automatiqueLégère et facile à prendre en main👉 Petit point à noter :Les couleurs restent un peu moins vives que sur une tablette (normal pour de l’e-ink)👉 En résumé : une liseuse moderne, confortable et polyvalente. Parfaite si tu lis beaucoup et encore mieux si tu aimes les contenus en couleur. Je recommande sans hésiter 👍

Kondle Colorsoft - polecam.
Świetny czytnik. Użytkujemy czytników Kindle od 15 lat. Nigdy nas nie zawiodły. Pierwszy raz będziemy mieli czytnik z kolorowym wyświetlaczem. Myślę, że będzie super - jak poprzednie.

Tolles Farb-Update, flüssig und leicht. Wichtige Warnung zu Kindle Unlimited
Ich nutze die Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition (32 GB) nun schon eine Weile und bin sehr zufrieden. Das Gerät ist leicht, liegt perfekt in der Hand und wertet das Leseerlebnis auf.Hier sind meine wichtigsten Erkenntnisse für alle, die über ein Upgrade nachdenken:🎨 1. DAS FARB-DISPLAY UND DIE REAKTIONSZEIT Wer iPad-Farben erwartet, liegt hier falsch, und das ist auch gut so. Die Farben wirken auf mich wunderbar gedämpft, pastellig und papierähnlich. Der Kontrast beim Lesen der reinen Schrift ist hervorragend. Was mich besonders freut: Das Umblättern und die allgemeine Reaktionszeit sind schnell und flüssig (kein nerviges Warten oder störendes Ghosting).📚 2. BUCHCOVER UND FARBIGE MARKIERUNGENFür mich ist das größte Highlight, dass die Bibliothek jetzt alle Buchcover in ihren originalen Farben anzeigt. Es fühlt sich fast an wie eine kleine Heimbibliothek zum Mitnehmen. Auch farbige Karten oder Grafiken in Büchern kommen endlich richtig zur Geltung. Wer Sachbücher liest, wird zudem die Möglichkeit lieben, Textstellen in verschiedenen Farben zu markieren. Das schafft beim späteren Nachschlagen sofort Ordnung.💧 3. WASSERSCHUTZ UND ALLTAGSTAUGLICHKEITDer Reader ist wasserfest, was mir persönlich sehr wichtig ist. Ob in der Badewanne, am Pool oder im Garten: Ich muss keine Angst vor Spritzern haben. Zusammen mit dem geringen Gewicht von 218 Gramm ist er dadurch ein idealer Begleiter, gerade beim entspannten Lesen abends im Bett.⚠️ 4. VORSICHT FALLE: KINDLE UNLIMITED TEST-ABOEin wichtiger Hinweis für alle Neukäufer: Wer „Kindle Unlimited" für 3 Monate kostenfrei testen möchte, um sich an den Kindle zu gewöhnen, MUSS das zwingend vor dem Kauf recherchieren und sich direkt im Bestellprozess dafür entscheiden. Tut man das erst im Nachhinein, ist es nicht mehr möglich, das Angebot zu aktivieren, auch nicht nach mehreren Telefonaten mit dem Amazon-Kundenservice.🎯 MEIN FAZIT Eine tolle Weiterentwicklung für alle, die Sachbücher, farbige Markierungen oder Buchcover lieben. Das Gerät ist schnell, ultraleicht, das Display angenehm und die Akkulaufzeit stark. Von mir gibt es fünf Sterne.

No regrets for getting the colorsoft instead of paperwhite again
I am sensitive to the grey dull book covers from the Paperwhite. I was warned about the colors in other reviews and yes, they are nit anything like that of an Apple retina screen but then, what is but being prepared for disappointment, it doesn't disappoint at all.The letters are not as crispy, but they resemble an actual book, and is still better than that. I like the tapping to change a page. It needs a thinner cover though than I got. I got one that is too bulky with a slot for cards (why would I put cards in my kindle?) a stand and holder for my hand but I'll exchange it for an original kindle cover which just snaps back beautifully.
