The Amazon Kindle Colorsoft has a 7″ color display, a built-in adjustable front light, and is designed for both books and comic readers. The Colorsoft screen is a very high-contrast screen intended to be easy on your eyes; it looks like paper and does a great job of highlighting book covers and illustrations. The compact, lightweight Colorsoft features thin bezels for comfortable one-handed use and 16GB of storage, providing ample space for your personal library.
A color e-reader that can hold hundreds of books for reading anywhere
The 7″ Colorsoft display provides a color reading experience while maintaining the appearance of a traditional e-reader page. A matte finish allows for readable text even in direct sunlight. It supports color-enhanced graphic novels and other color-heavy books much better than a standard monochrome e-reader screen. Black-and-white text-based books also appear clearly, so you do not have to give up fidelity to acquire color. The Amazon Kindle Colorsoft includes a Page Color feature that lets you invert all text on each page to a darker background with lighter text, while still showing vibrant color for covers and images.
Tools available on the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft allow you to tailor the reading experience to your preferences. You can highlight important text on a page in four different colors: Yellow, Orange, Blue, and Pink, making it easier to quickly scan the highlighted areas later to find what was significant. Additionally, you have complete control over the font size, style, and spacing, allowing you to make the text either larger and looser or smaller and tighter to create a comfortable reading environment. The adjustable warm-light function lets you move from a cool white to an amber tone.
The Amazon Kindle Colorsoft has a battery life of up to 8 weeks on a single charge, eliminating the need to stay near an electrical outlet. If you have a couple of books loaded onto the device, you can take the reader with you in a travel bag and be assured you will not run out of power before your trip ends. Additionally, the waterproof nature of the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft allows you to comfortably read in water, such as in a bathtub, by the pool, or on a rainy deck, without treating the device as if it were fragile glass.
Access to the Kindle Store and optional Kindle Unlimited service puts millions of titles at your fingertips anytime you want to read something new. You can purchase individual titles, create a permanent digital library, or receive access to thousands of free ebooks, comics, and audiobooks as part of a subscription service. Your Amazon account ties everything together, ensuring that your position in a book is synced across all devices, including the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft and Kindle apps. For $200, discounted from the regular price of $250, the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft delivers a 7-inch color reader with long battery life, customizable features, and waterproof durability in one compact unit.
