The Kindle Colorsoft display is optimized for full-color reading, capable of displaying over 4,096 different colors. This vibrant display offers a high-contrast and easy-on-the-eyes paper-like color experience, transforming covers and content into a more dynamic and engaging reading experience.

The Kindle Colorsoft also comes equipped with a dual-core 2GHz MediaTek processor and 1GB of RAM, ensuring smooth and efficient performance. Weighing just 7.6 oz, it is slightly lighter than the Signature Edition, making it a portable and convenient reading companion.
The Kindle Colorsoft is also waterproof, rated IPX8, and can withstand immersion in up to 2 meters of fresh water for up to 60 minutes. This durability feature makes it ideal for beach or poolside reading.
In terms of pricing, the new Kindle Colorsoft 16GB starts at $249.99, while the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition with 32GB of storage, quick charge, ambient light sensor, and Ads costs $279.99. The base model does not have advertisements on the lock screen or home screen.
