Amazon has dropped the Kindle Colorsoft 16GB to just $169.99 ahead of the event, matching the lowest price we last saw during last year\u2019s Black Friday frenzy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4lE6yCS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Kindle Colorsoft 16GB for $169.99 ($80 off)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is the more affordable version of Amazon\u2019s color Kindle, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/kindle-colorsoft-16gb-kids-launched-3580704\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">launched last year<\/a> as a cheaper alternative to the Signature Edition. It drops a few extras like wireless charging and halves the storage, but otherwise you\u2019re getting the same experience \u2014 including the 7-inch Colorsoft display, adjustable warm light, and waterproof design.<\/p>\n<p>The color screen is the obvious upgrade compared to your classic Kindle. The device is still very much an e-reader first, but the added color makes a difference for things like book covers, comics, and highlighting text in different shades. For most standard novels, the experience isn\u2019t dramatically different, but it does add a bit more flexibility depending on what you read.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re also getting the usual Kindle perks, including access to millions of titles in the Kindle Store, support for Kindle Unlimited, and battery life that can stretch up to eight weeks on a single charge. Like other recent Kindles, it charges over USB-C and is designed to be easy on the eyes, whether you\u2019re reading in bright sunlight or at night.<\/p>\n<p>If you liked the idea of the Colorsoft but didn\u2019t want to pay the $250 retail price, this is your chance to save.
