The Colorsoft Kindle is back on sale with a $50 discount.
The Amazon Kindle Colorsoft, the company's first e-reader with a color screen, is available at a $50 discount, bringing the price down to $230. Additionally, it includes three months of free access to Kindle.
The Kindle Colorsoft, Amazon's first color e-reader, is back in stock at an attractive price of $230, representing a $50 discount, or 18%. This is the lowest price recorded to date. Although the model reached this price in January, that discount was limited to Prime subscribers; currently, there is no such restriction, so anyone can take advantage of this offer.
In addition to the reduced price, the Kindle Colorsoft includes three months of free access to Kindle Unlimited, providing the opportunity to explore over 4 million eBooks during this period. Afterward, the subscription will automatically renew at a cost of $12 per month, so it's important to cancel before the trial period ends if you do not wish to continue with the service.
It's worth mentioning that some of the early Kindle Colorsoft devices experienced an issue with a yellow bar at the bottom of the screen, but Amazon has addressed this situation by offering refunds and replacements to those affected. In the most recent evaluations, this issue has not occurred, although the rating was decided to be withheld until it is confirmed that it will not repeat.
Users have praised the device's fast loading and page-turning times. Additionally, it features an automatic adjustable front light and, by default, does not display ads on the lock screen. The pinch-to-zoom capability is especially useful for reading graphic novels.
The device offers 32GB of internal storage and is compatible with Audible audiobooks. It can be used for up to eight weeks on a single charge, and the battery can be charged wirelessly or via USB-C.
Undoubtedly, the standout feature of the Colorsoft is its seven-inch color screen, which offers a density of 300 pixels per inch (ppi) for black-and-white content and 150 ppi for color content. It also has an IPX8 rating, meaning it can withstand immersion in fresh water up to two meters for 60 minutes and in salt water up to 0.25 meters for three minutes, making it suitable for use at the beach or pool without worries.
