Amazon has just unveiled its latest Kindle lineup, and this time, the spotlight is on the company’s first-ever Kindle e-reader with a color display. Named the Kindle Colorsoft, this new device is priced at $279 and promises to deliver rich, vibrant colors without sacrificing clarity, even when zooming in on images. With weeks of battery life and a sharp display designed to avoid pixelation, it's a major leap forward for Kindle lovers. Preorders are now open, and the Colorsoft will start shipping on October 30.
But that’s not all—Amazon also introduced a new Kindle Scribe with enhanced note-taking features, including a generative AI-powered tool that can summarize your notes, making it easier than ever to stay organized. The Scribe, retailing for $399, is part of what Amazon describes as the "largest refresh" the Kindle lineup has ever had, according to devices chief Panos Panay. Alongside these launches, there’s a new $159 Kindle Paperwhite with a larger 7-inch display and a more compact 12th generation Kindle priced at $109, offering a brighter screen than previous models. These upgrades are designed to improve usability and overall experience for readers.
As the Kindle family evolves, it’s clear that Amazon is pushing the boundaries of e-reading technology, blending rich visuals with the powerful functionality of AI, giving readers more control over how they interact with digital books. The latest devices mark a bold new chapter for Kindle fans, especially those excited about enhanced color and functionality in their favorite e-reader.
