Here’s what customers are saying

5 stars

I absolutely love the color of the book covers, I love the text on the device because it's similar to the paper white. I love that the color is crisp but still soft.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How is the reading experience different on Kindle Colorsoft than on Kindle Paperwhite?

The Colorsoft display is distinct from the Paperwhite display, and includes a fully optimized display stack to deliver high quality color reading. The black and white resolution (300ppi) is the same across devices.

2. Can I enable system-level Dark Mode on my Kindle Colorsoft?

Dark Mode is currently not available on this device. You can enable a similar reading experience within millions of books using the Page Color feature, which, like Dark Mode, inverts the book page color to black and the book text color to white. To enable the feature in eligible books, open your book, access the Quick Actions menu, and toggle the Page Color to black.

3. How does color impact Kindle Colorsoft battery life?

Kindle Colorsoft has up 8 weeks of battery life for you to enjoy. The Color Style selection (Standard or Vivid) on Kindle Colorsoft has no impact on battery life. If you are looking for longer battery life, you may like Kindle Paperwhite or Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, which both have up to 12 weeks of battery life.
