"The 16GB Colorsoft is Amazon's newest color e-reader, and it has many of the same features found on last year's Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition. It offers the same page turn speeds and works well when reading both monochrome and color books; however, like with the step-up model, the resolution drops from 300ppi to 150ppi when reading books in color, which was noticeable but not a dealbreaker in our testing."
"Overall, Amazon's entry-level Colorsoft is the best color e-reader in its price range. If you love reading graphic novels or books with a lot of illustrations, you'll get a much richer experience compared to reading the same titles on a monochrome Kindle (it also won't irritate your eyes as much as staring at a phone or tablet screen). That being said, you do lose some features when stepping down from the Signature Edition, including support for wireless charging and an auto-adjusting front light."
Amazon's 16GB Kindle Colorsoft is available for $219.99 with a $30 discount, while the Colorsoft Kids bundle is $239.99 with the same discount and includes a 12-month Amazon Kids Plus subscription, a two-year extended warranty, and a cover-style case. Both ad-free models use a seven-inch color E Ink display, offer IPX8 waterproofing, and advertise a battery life up to eight weeks. The 16GB model shares many features with the Colorsoft Signature Edition but drops color resolution from 300ppi to 150ppi. Color PDFs sent via Send to Kindle retain color, while USB-C transfers may strip color. The Signature Edition adds wireless charging, an auto-adjusting front light, and 32GB storage.
